Having watched people slowly trickle over to the PS4 for the last year only to never return to the PS3 I can agree that a turning point is being reached.

The PS4 is already on most peoples' minds and new lineups are all tempting being the turning point. The thing about Dust is at this point for many people it is nothing more than a social experience so as friends are lost to PS4 the move to PS4 starts to become a no brainer until migration reaches a critical mass.

The people that are more and more likely to move are the ones that are spending money. With no real future in sight it is very easy to say "well, I think I would rather spend money on _______". As this happens CCP is going to end up right back in a position of not having the cash flow to sustain certain things and the future of Dust will be in jeopardy once again.

If only CCP had announced a PS4 expansion instead of a PC remake over a year ago. There would not have been droves of refunds hurting their relationship with Sony and spending would not have dried up for many months until Ratatti saved their bacon. CCP - Constantly Choosing Poorly.

agreed

we tried telling them that legion needed to be ps4 dust reborn instead but the ccp loyalists kept saying HTFU and pc only

thats why its so fun when a ccp loyalist has a meltdown

In my opinion CCP now only has one saving path that can be taken. Release Legion as a COMPLETED game on the PS4 and give everyone that transfers their name, SP, ISK, and a percent of all AUR spent as a huge bonus for making the leap.

Everyone loves a comeback story and the story of Dust going through hell on the PS3 and CCP listening to players and keeping the game alive while vastly improving it just sounds like something that would send shock waves through the gaming community and have thousands upon thousands of people flocking to try it and find out if this is true. Just some food for thought CCP. From PR nightmare to PR genius. They had better fix new player experience because the retention rate is disgusting. There is no way they are letting us transfer over our SP. Probably not isk either. I just passed 85 Million SP. 14 proto suits, all Cores maxed except cloak. All weapons proto'd except knives. I'm sitting at 675Million isk. They should discontinue the forums. Save everyone time and tears.
