EVE: Valkyrie will be on PS4, DUST can't compete.

DUST also has WarFrame to compete with.


What I'm saying is. DUST WONT MAKE IT ON PS4.

There is zero evidence that PS4 would give anything other than a smaller player base right now.

PC is the most ideal scenario. It offers unparalleled options for development.
Once the edges have been ironed out and development has good momentum, THEN consoles are an option.
IMO, realistically, by the time DUST is ready to make a platform switch the PS4 may well be at the end of its lifecycle. We've been down that road once before.

PC makes more sense. On a console DUST is limited, can't run it's intended engine, lag and graphic issues abound. PC is limitless. Some games aren't for PC. This game is dying on a console. Just because a game has a player base on a console, doesn't mean squat. The playerbase know this game is dying numb nuts. I would say start thinking more, but your corp says it all.

PS4 sales as of Jan = 18.5 Million

PS3 sales as of Last May = 77.3 Million

If you think that PS4 has a larger player base, you need to learn some basic math.

While I support some form of Dust/Legion on the PS4, Dust can still be viable on the PS3. In fact, it was just recently announced that FFXI is JUST NOW finally going to have an end date. On the PS2.

This game still has a long life span given the player base, and many other parts of the world using older gen consoles.

Don' let your wants cloud real analysis.

Shouldn't we get a few more major issues solved first and then port the game to another platform?

Last week my friend came by my house, and I had been playing the game so it was still on my living room TV. He asked about it, I explained it a little, he seemed pretty interested, so since I dont care about my KDR and could afford the ISK of my friend playing a little, i let him play a match on my account.

He got fed up after 2 matches and said "dont you have any actual games, like COD or BF , something where you can actually play?"

its too much man. There is a huge learning curve just on the game mechanics. Shields vs Armor or Reps vs Armor or damage mods or this or that. Just building and using fits appropriately. Using a AR against a Caldari suit works alot differently than using a Rail rifle against it.

None of the other **** you do in other games works in this one. Even aiming is all relative. At one point my friend was trading fire with another guy behind cover, a proto guy. The ADV fitting i was letting him use can be successful, and my friend was actually close to killing the guy when 2 of his proto friends showed up and killed him.

It takes long enough as it is to learn the game. The community policy of wielding proto vs milita. it gives no time for people to learn how to use fittings, so they just get frustrated and quit.


How do you expect a PS4 port to work? Tons of people will join on opening day, make their way through the academy, and then proto squads will be waiting for them. After a few weeks it will be back to low population. Its not a sustainable system.


If you want a port tomorrow, people should focus on achieving growth on THIS platform today. Its not impossible, summer is coming up, alot of PS3s are hitting the secondary market, which means people without large game libraries will be buying them......

Blacklight is awesome... Specially when you start getting into customizing guns.

I have a PS4, thank you.

Ask some of the other PS2 beta players.

Just because someone has a brain and knows how to do a reasoned analysis doesn't mean they are lacking.

But I suppose I can see how that would automatically be a conclusion from a juvenile's narrow perspective.
