Actually consoles are holding it back. In the birth year of dust, there where many great ideas that simply where not implemented due to the constraines and the limits of the ps3. Even now half the problems still exist within the game due to the limits of the console. If dust would have been on the PC from the beginning we would be playing a hole different game, Better graphics, less lag and a hole lot more toys to play with, along with better and more maps. Not to mention updates that could be done when ever they felt like it. And i'm sure there are many more reasons.
The point is consoles are a waist of funds, manpower and resources that could be better spend on a pc stable version.
Imagine Eve on a console, it would send it 5 years back in time, with a hole lot less to play with. Now imagine Dust on a PC, it would send it flying into the future.
First a good game must be created on the PC, with better webs woven into Eve. Then they should consider porting to consoles. First A then Z not the other way around.
OW and CCP Rip the band aid allready and PORT DUST514 to the PC |

Quote:PS3 was about 8 years old by the time DUST released.
This isn't the console's fault, it's CCP's fault for releasing it on hardware that was around from when I was in 2nd grade.
They dealt the hand they where given, actually they dealt the hand they had to follow from mangement.
Quote:CCP Shanghai was also extremely mismanaged by every account, and most of the blame can be put on that. So no, we wouldn't have the DUST we wanted because CCP themselves were incompetent. Under Rouge and Rattati it could be very different, but if the same team that was responsible for DUST before them was to tackle a PC DUST, what we would get wouldn't be much better
The game would be better since the team had there experience in building PC games and there experience with EVE, the incompetents came only when they tried to do the same on a console. Granted Rouge and Rattati did a good job with what they where given. But if they had stuck to the PC, it would not have been such a mess to begin with.
Quote:PS4 is 2 years old, and it's based on x86 so porting would be extremely easy to any future console.
I'm sure the ps4 can handle dust in the state it is now, yet as the game becomes bigger and more complex, it's also becomes more demanding. And in time your going to have the same cary on there is now. They are going to have to port it again and again and again. Which means building the game partly new, over and over and over. Just so that it can keep up with the progress beeing made. Does the PS4 make porting easyer, perhaps. But with the PC there simply are no limits, no porting, no nothing. So will CCP spend money on trying to port a game constantly over again or spend money on enhancing the gamers experience...hmmmm. Why keep on running around the bush, if there is a better way.
As for your concerns on Cheaters, I'm sure CCP has there ways for them, even for FPS. Hell half the Economy in EVE would not exist without them. No matter what you say, but many bots keep the flow of goods going and if it was not for RWT in the golden years, there would have been alot less isk beeing thrown around now. Sometimes you need a little bit of evil to keep things balanced. Most company's use this grey area, but i can tell you now if they really cared and wanted, they would box there game up like a prison fortress. The fact remains most company's don't care, it's to time consuming and it drains funds, they just make it look like they do, just enough to stop people from whining like little girls.
Not to mention i'm sure in time PS4 will have enough of its own cheaters, so it's not like it's impossible there either. |
