Port DUST514 to PC and PS4 (I mainly want it on PS4)

Are you perhaps mentally deficient, stranger?

"CCP's whole playerbase" is not, in fact, on the PC, as evidenced by the numerous people who prefer console who play DUST.

'and things would go fast' is a pathetic justification for axing a substantial number, if not a majority of the loyal playerbase.

As I said in another thread, putting the game into the massively-oversaturated PC Free-to-Play market would result in it gaining more users for a brief period before they all left for the next shiny new thing, leaving only the EVE players who actually care about Dust 514 who only want it on PC so they can stick it on their 5th monitor while mining ice with the other 4.

I'd describe that as a fate worse than death.

Cross-platform between PC and Console with shooters has been proven many times not to work, so I think the game should stick with people who actually like it and care about it, and that's us here on PSN.

...that's seriously your measure?

There's only around 2k of us left because most of us felt we got shafted by last year's FanFest, and before that the game released in a pretty poor state thanks to the mismanagement of the likes of CCP Jian, who aren't even with the company anymore (probably as a result).

I will remind you that even back when the guns had no Absolute ranges so a person 1 meter outside your max range would take no damage from your shots, the game still got a large number of downloads, and even back during the Open Beta in Chromosome the Battle of Caldari Prime attracted so much attention from both players and the Press because it represented PC players in space and Console players on the ground fighting for the same objectives simultaneously.

Obviously on the Dust side that just translated into a text blurb on the login screen and the later incorporation of the destroyed Titan into the backgrounds of the maps, but it was still a major factor in bringing in players.

If you look at EVE-Offline, even in the broken state this game has almost perpetually been in, we almost broke 10,000 at the game's launch last year in May.

It doesn't take much to imagine the kind of massive player count this game would have if it were fully functional and on a current-gen console.

Shooters wouldn't be the game's only competition on PC by a long shot. It would theoretically be in competition with every other free-to-play game regardless of genre.

How has everyone forgotten that the original mission of this game was to bring console gamers into the world of EVE Online? That's the whole point of this game existing.

If you take that away, what's left of the original vision?

Let me ask you something.

Have you ever heard of minecraft?
It started on PC,but when ported to consoles it sold more than 54m as opposed to 17m on PCs.
Reference.

How about rocket league?
Popular because of PSN.

Now imagine if Dust could be put up as a "free" game (and by free i mean get a free ps plus starter kit).
I'd bet the same popularity would arise,providing PvE is in with a survival mode of some sort.
