Is there any chance that Legion will come to new gen consoles??? I feel that if they make it pc exclusive they'd kill of a ton of their playerbase, or at least what little is left of it. Thoughts?

There's already a few threads in this forum on this.
For many reasons, I believe the answer to this is "no". At least "no" until it's been out on the PC for a while.

I get where you're coming from, but the way that i see it is, why not both??? You already have pc games playing at a pretty close level to pcs on new gen consoles. i.e: Bf4 64 player combat, TESO on consoles, Final Fantasy XIwhatever the hell there on now, etc etc. Add some crossplay feautures and bing ba daboom you got yourself a decent sized playerbase already.

As I said, there are a few threads on this already. I've posted my reasons there, and no offense, but I don't feel like rehashing it again.

So... to make it short: Legion is coming to PC because consoles suck. I'm not even talking about hardware or anything here (but honestly, that sucks too), but about patch politics. Dust 514 is Dust 514 because CCP can't have a public test server for dust, because every patch needs to be checked by Sony first, because consoles ALWAYS have Hardware limitation and a limited lifetime. All these are reasons why they announced Legion in the first place. Making it multi platform again would completely defeat that purpose, adding new restrictions again and holding the game back once again.

Yes putting it PC will hurt the playerbase of dust as the game we will lose people who are console exclusive players.
Yes the playerbase will grow on PC and soon outshine the numbers we've seen on console.
Yes its the right thing to do for CCP as they are a PC focused company and that is there strong platform.
Yes its the right thing to do for the game. it will have constant updates on PC, features and connections to EVE that the console could only dream of and enough system resources to finally realise the gameplay concepts we saw in the 2013 trailer for dust
and that's basically it. there's nothing more to be discussed. a PS4 port would be the wrong move for the game, the company and most of the playerbase.

They could do this but again the game would still need to be launched to PC first so CCP can have a test server and control content updates at the level they wish. this would however result in features the PC can handle being removed for a console patch. would it not hurt more to give console players half a game?
and would CCP even make money off of it?

Who knows whats up. But at least Dust514 is getting attention. I still have my cloned fingers crossed for a PC New Eden FPS.
edited- add on many many moments later: I am definitely going to play Valkyrie on the PC or the PS4.

Incorrect, by porting to ps4 they would keep at most 80% of the current players and add more simply because there aren't any blockbuster shooters owned my Playstation like halo is for xbox. It is also the wrong move because your essentially saying "**** you" to everyone who is too poor to buy a pc and spend 100s of $ a year to keep it upgraded to perform. Think about it, your banning CCP from coming back to consoles it hey port to pc simply because of their reputation and that they are now known to **** console players over, why would you essentially alienated millions of console players ready to play a FTP fps, potentially gaining more people to EVE online, especially since 80% of the console world has never heard of the game in the first place.

What do you people understand by "only in PC"? Mr. Rattati was very clear in 2014 Fanfest. Only in PC. Literally.
The point is, 2014 Fanfest? Really...?

80% of current players is like, what, 800?
I upgraded my PC shortly after Fanfest 2014 for obvious reasons but I haven't made any more upgrades since then except for a used 770 GTX I bought off a friend for $150. Of course, it's way more expensive than a console because it's more powerful hardware than Potatostation 4. Which is exactly what a game like Dust and Legion will need. I probably won't need to upgrade what I have for a few more years.
As other's have already said, there's too much red tape involved in developing on consoles. PC's are more open and flexible. If you want to blame something on Dust's current state, look on the shelf near your TV.

This might not be true...because BF4 have a Community Test Environment (server) in the PS4!
I would like to see Dust/Legion port to PS4 because I don't play in PC.
In addition, I see that most of the PC multiplayer games have hackers...

It shouldn't touch a PC unless they can do cross platform play. Not everyone is willing to fork out the -ú600 required so it can look all polished on high settings when they could buy a PS4 for half that and not have to worry about upgrading every few years.

Well you don't have to have it on high settings, just get similar parts to what the ps4 has and make it look like ****, it would probably still be better than a ps4 version
