DUST Search - Port vs Polite

Its been a year or so now? There has been trolls, discussions and heated debates about the future of Dust 514. Will it go to PS4? Is Project Legion dead? Has CCP given up on Dust 514?

Lets examine this topic indepth....

Imagine for a moment, you wake up early in the morning. You roll over and sit up, hanging your legs off the bed and planting your feet firmly on the ground. Its Monday. You take a deep breathe and let loose a very heavy sigh. You know its time to go to work and deal with the Dust 514 community. You feel like this might just be the day you quit...but then you remember the mortgage payment is due next Thursday and you are on your feet before you know it.

You get dressed, eat breakfast, brush teeth and check out the news or your Clash of Clans game and then you're off. You dread going to work because no matter what you do, no one is ever happy. You think about your day talking with fellow CCP employees, reading the newest batch of B.S. on the forums and the endless streams of complaints. You really do or did at one point, want to make this game amazing but you're only one man and you can only take so much.

LAG! DROPLINKS IN WALL! AV UNDERPOWERED!

You stumble in, say hello to your coworkers and log on to get to work and you deal with the mercilessly pathetic, abhorrent, negative and despicable community that is Dust 514's remaining player base.

Imagine if you had to deal with you each day.....would you want to port Dust 514?

Would you want to design a brand new version for the masses to flock too and after all that work, still have to deal with you?

Would you want to continue your crusade and push your bosses and beg them for a port telling them it will be the best idea ever because 3,000 people (or so) say it would be?

Probably not.

Its my opinion there is no talk to a port because we don't deserve the port and we don't deserve to know. Why would CCP reward us with such information when all that goes on here is negativity and just flat out mean people acting like douchebags because they're protected by their keyboards?

I'm just saying....food for thought.

It also remains toxic because on average newbies fail to even make it a few matches past the academy due to the terrible NPE and matchmaking being in shambles because there is no incentive to win at all. While I 100% agree that this community has reached a point where septicemia does not even begin to describe it one must also look at who allowed those toxins to reach such a critical mass through poor management. There is no talk on a port because CCP is happily sucking up money from players who choose to stick to a dead platform. Being able to turn a profit off of a skeleton crew who only gets half ass support from the company is something no one would want to readily give up especially if it meant reinvesting millions of dollars to gamble on what that leap would end up looking like. If you want a port toss your PS3 out in the road and send pictures of that as well as your shiny new PS4 to CCP and tell them to come get your money. A company is by nature capitalistic meaning that the only real vote we as consumers get to cast is dollars. Unfortunately right now everyone is operating on the notion that spending money on Dust is a vote for a port when in reality every dollar spent is a vote to stay right here so that you can consistently give them more money. ++ Remove NPC orbitals from FW -- Fix orbital timers for Eve players assisting in Planetary Conquest ++

Spot on I know you can not confirm or deny any of this statement but I honestly feel sorry for you. I think with actual supprt with in a company that actually know how to operate you could define what the corporate ladder means. o7 ++ Remove NPC orbitals from FW -- Fix orbital timers for Eve players assisting in Planetary Conquest ++
