The fact that moving the game off of the PSN effectively removes it from many of the people who play it right now who aren't PC gamers.
The stated intent of this game back in 2009 was to bring console players into New Eden and allow both PC and Console gamers to cooperate in the same universe. I think that's one of the best facets of this game, and moving it to PC would just be a cop-out.
I more than support a platform upgrade, but I think that should be on the PS4 in recognition of all of us who have made Dust profitable on PS3 right now. I think we have "proven ourselves worthy" of being heavily considered in terms of the next platform Dust moves to.
And I"m not saying that in terms of money spent. We've done a lot of things in this game as it is right now, made a lot of neat stories to tell. We've seen Corporations rise and fall, some of them clans that came over from other games.
Some of those clans have even stuck around after 2014's FanFest, and some are even coming back now that CCP Rattati is at the helm.
I want this world to stay in the hands of the players who helped make it what it is right now, and where it is is a MUCH better place than it was 8 months ago. Much of that is owed to the decision to give Dust to Rattati, but some of the credit also goes to all of us who stuck around, all the people who are coming back, and all the new people that braved the Academy and the first couple stomps and have put the effort in to learn how to play the game.
How many people have a PS3 and PC? do we have those figures? because till we do this is a dumb point.
moving it to PC would be a cop out? Dust never became what it was suppose to be due to the limitations of the console. just look at the trailer for dust 514 again. what were playing is not what's in that trailer.
look at it this way. if they made legion on PC and dust 514 port to PS4 what game would be better and attract a larger audience?
theres no question. PC would lead to a better game, PC would be updated allmost every day. PC would have a stronger link to EVE. and i mean this is an actual practical sense. linking the 2 games would be simple. they made a mistake with the console once. why would they do it again?
