I actually like it. It's a very different engine compared to what an hypothetical next-gen Dust would use, but still it's way better than today's Dust 514- and actually better than any other F2P MMOFPS imo.

How could Sony "get in the way" if they're doing practically anything in order to have a bigger set of exclusives? The thing is, the Dev team in Shanghai is small. Putting them at work on another game would mean Dust's death, and they probably don't want it to die considering it's "making money".

Well, there are pros and cons actually. If I want a very competitive game, I'd prefer console over PCs. The nature of a PC is actually a problem when it comes to online gaming: I can play the same game you're playing, but I can clearly see you 500 mts away while you can't. I can run it at a stable 60 fps while you may have serious framerate drops. I may have an aimbot while you don't. Things you can't do on a console: everyone's on the same, closed system and the fight is always fairer.
For what I know, Eve could run on a PS4, considering it smoothly run on a 2012 iMac, why wouldn't an hypothetical Dust 2.0 with free roaming etc run on the same system?

No Man's Sky is different. Afaik it's a really huge and complex algorithm which is not really good for MMOs. Although, the procedural generation is something that would indeed be useful for future Dust 514 / Legion or whatever iterations. I mean, we already have the assets, if the maps were created procedurally you would never play the same map twice in 1-2 years.

If you watched one of the videos they didnt want it like a MMO they wanted to fling the players across the universe
yeah, I know, I'm already a big fan of NMS .

I want that extra memory going to support large battles with 100+ players, large variety of models, rich maps (with deep canyons, water, caves, bridges over high cliffs, etc.), great performance, etc.
Planetside 2 is already able to run at *ultra* settings and it does have massive battles, rich maps (with deep canyons, water, caves, bridges over high cliffs, etc.) etc. So, I don't think the problem will ever be the platform nor the memory (at least, not for 6-7 years from now).
They should find something peculiar, like procedural assets generation based on distance from the sun, gravity, Faction that colonized the planet etc. Or something different that would actually make the game unique, in order for it to be a general success. They could get some ideas from NMS, actually, and make a better game...
anyway this is mere speculation. The truth is that there will never be a ps4 project for Dust or something similar.

Oh, and by the way, it would probably look like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8v3GA9jSasQ
