So I watched the Biomassed podcast (good job on a year of episodes fellas!) last night. Yes, I am behind the times. It was pretty fascinating just hearing Rattati openly admit that certain things have been quite bad, namely "we are almost back to the point to where we were before FanFest [2014] but, unfortunately, just not quite there yet." One thing that really stuck to me is the fact that Rattati flat out said "Reskins of Tanks are coming because the PS3's memory is insufficient for new models." I am paraphrasing, but that is the gist of it.
Now we have Iron Wolf Saber and Rattati both stating that the nearly 9 year old tech that DUST is on is hampering the game development. IWS mentioned the Gallente RDV that has been in the game files forever but never implemented because of tech limitations and Rattati says that the only want to have any racial tank is for them to be reskins, again because of the tech.
So why is there such an utter silence about the potential for DUST to move to a different platform? I don't believe that CCP has even made statements like "we are looking into migrating from the PS3" other than Legion but even Legion was billed as a separate game rather than a transition (which is why "what about mah SP!" was The Bridal March for the wedding).
Because what looks worse than "Damn, DUST's tech be so old!" is "Damn, DUST's tech is never going to improve..."

Game development WILL discontinue if there is nothing to be done from the technical standpoint. Look at what happened to Payday 2 on console. The limitations of the PS3 can't be improved upon, but CCP is unfortunately already down this road. PC is the next platform they must move on for the original dream of DUST to live on. And so, Project Legion was born. |

I think CCP learned from the 2013 and 2014 Fanfests that it is better not to announce activities that you are not certain you'll be able to implement. And thus we get silence on the mid-to-far future.
From the reports from fanfest I took that this silence doesn't mean there is no mid-to-far future, just that they won't talk about it until they know more about it.
Fair stance, in my opinion.
By the way, I also consider it a fair stance to not trust CCP about there being a mid-to-far future. With this history everyone is entitled to that opinion. |

Or PS4, since, y'know, their entire playerbase is console based.

At this stage I feel Dust will slowly start to die off. The longer the new systems are out and the more games that drop for those systems it will slowly continue eating up the remaining player base. Their fighting an up hill battle at this point imo

I am confident that Legion is still being worked on, despite the claims by others.
Not to mention the fact that CCP is still new to the FPS gig. Any port to a new platform will take along with it many issues that in fact are NOT based upon limitations of old technology.
If they can't get some of the simple stuff right presently, then they will simply have a more polished almost-good-enough FPS on their hands on a new system. If it doesn't reach a quality threshold with regards to balance and other factors, then they will be dooming the new version before it even releases.

We already know 1) Legion is being developed for the PC 2) CCP has stated that they are not actively considering a console at this time regarding Legion.
Its simply the most optimistic among us that believe the PS4 is an obvious or inevitable conclusion.

Given that a very decent number of multiplayer FPS games on steam have smaller playerbases, that's not true at all.

I bet that when some better space sifi shooter game comes out that's similar to dust on the ps4 (destiny is not that game) ccp will regret leaving consol as they watch everyone buy ps4s. FPSS belong on consoles, they make no sense being on pc.

Try to stay clear of the arguments over PS4 or PC. We should be more curious what is happening and trying to argue which.
There is a difference between not saying anything when there is nothing concrete and not even stating goals. The silence is worrisome.

If Legion becomes a thing then it will obviously go to PC then hopefully to PS4. Since there have been multiple ports to PS4 from PC(the master race is shifting lol), I think it is safe to say CCP could easily do it a year after deploying Legion.

Still not convinced they can prevent Aimbots on the PC version of Legion. I know you can do it on the PS but sure as hell a lot harder then some of the stuff found on PC.

And that there were tons of threads on the Eve forums expressing interest in Dust except that is was on the PS3? Porting it to PS4 unlocks all of the Eve fanbase, which easily dwarfs the fanbase on the console.
