Because it would be way more accessible to a larger public, it would add a great free to play to a very tiny list (unlike PC that has thousands and thousands of f2p), it'll keep the same community, still work flawlessly because the ps4 isn't as bad as you may think ^^

These are the best point of bringing it to consoles IMO. Then you're maybe right about Sony, but I think the arguments above are overcoming this point.

Hmm. This one is very spoiled. I wonder how'd he would fare in my neighborhood.(thug Mexicans that are very discriminating(and shunning) of other races.

Because, by and large, we got this game on the PS3, because we are console gamers with a Playstation loyalty.

Sure, there are EVE players who got the PS3 just for Dust, but that doesn't describe the majority of gamers.

Many of us have already purchased a PS4, and are eagerly awaiting Dust there.

I am not averse to it moving the the PC first, and I think that it would, in fact be the best for all parties for that port to go first.

A PC port would allow freedom of updates, test servers, etc that can't be found with a Sony partnership, and the PS4 allows for a large group of console gamers (its outselling the PS2 relative to its cycle), and an extra revenue stream, which will be all the more important once Star Citizen gets going.

With Valkyrie being on the PS4, giving CCP experience developing on the platform, it is a great situation.

What do you have against the PS4?

Not really. They like to gang up on pencil pushers and people not in their little gang. Come on down,see how long you last? There was a drive by like 3 hours ago.
I was just trying to fix a garden tool and all I hear are .45 going off.

The problem is that the competition on the PC is much greater for this type of game, and EVE as well, particularly with Star Citizen and Star Marine around the corner.

While I won't say it will kill the games, or CCP, it will put a significant dent in their player base. If they want to survive long term, they will need all the help they can get, and that should include porting their games to the PS4 and XBone.

If they try and ignore the market conditions, they may end up not having Dust/Legion on any platforms whatsoever.

I love cardboard boxes. But golden old boy. The ps4 has 8gb of ram.

The ps3 has 512 split between CPU/GPU.

That fact that CCP was able to make dust run on that short amount of ram is amazing is it not?(albeit not properly due to server lag,and over detailed items and massive maps)

The server upgrade that's happening next year for eve will help the game if it lives that long.

And think. 8gb of ram is decent enough to play games. Dust in its current state would probably run a little faster on next gen consoles.

If we had a port now,then CCP would give us dust at 1080p 60fps or higher if we only had a engine upgrade and kept everything we did have.

The moral of the story is,PC isn't the best and neither are consoles. But unlike Pc elitists want to think,consoles don't have potato's for operating systems.

But from a business standpoint I'd port to the next gen consoles first to generate cash,then release a PC version that's off the charts in all the graphics and details and frames but first you gotta take baby steps. Work out the kinks. Not just jump straight to one thing and then bomb out.

I agree with you cat, but here is the biggest problem of porting it from the PS4 to PC: Crossplay.

The community would cry for it to happen, and when it does, the console gamers will ask for it to be taken away. It has been proven time and time again that Keyboard and Mouse will always outperform a Controller. And seeing as you can have multiple games running at the same time on a PC (IE. EVE in one window and Dust in the other) they (as in one player) could effectivly control FW and PC with OBs.

I am not against Dust porting to next gen. And I am not in favor of one console or another (though I would prefer an Xbone port), but if it ports to console, it needs to stay on console or buff the auto aim to near aimbot status in order to compete with PC gamers.

Did... Morte give you all these ideas?

Did Sony touch you in no no spot? Do you even have a PC capable of running 4k moniters and games? I swear man. This is why I hate video game communities sometimes. Always someone waving their epeen.

Who the f needs 4k just to play a game? Jesus? How bloody spoilt are you? Gotta spray some febreeze. It reeks of snobbiness.

I'll say it again.
Dust will go where it goes.
No use in crying for one thing or the other.
PS. Planetside 2 runs 1080p 60fps and has giant maps with huge battles all the time,yet I never really go below 40 frames the explosions are everywhere but I never go below.
PSS. Yes I have seen 4k TVs and I am afraid what they will do to humanity. Most of us are glued to phones already.

Yeah, the high end PCs can do amazing things etc. You can customize and use/make mods, which is great for the people that want to do it.

But if that were the be all/end all for games, why are so many PC games also on consoles?

Even Overwatch from Blizzard just came out saying that it will be available for PS4 and XBox One in addition to PC, though it had up to yesterday only been known as a PC game.

And frankly, graphics at this point are over rated in terms of the affects it has on enjoying gameplay. Look at how many games, like Birth of Isaac, Spelunky, Super Meatboy, and other games have come out with really old graphics on all platforms, and still saw success.

Hell, just look at Minecraft. It is one of the most successful games ever, and has crap graphics.

People play consoles because they don't want the hassle of PCs, of upgrades, and making sure that everything is compatible, and up to date etc. They play them because they are plug and play. I don't ever have to check to see if my PS4 has the required specs for the game, I can just pop the game in, and I am off.

Actually in my country, getting a PC for $300 (half the price of a PS4) is weaker than the PS4. I would be better off buying a tablet.

I will admit I overexagerated, but they will need to do something if they Crossplay the game in order to help those who use controllers. Xbone PS4 Crossplay (doubt it will ever happen Warframe even failed to convince Sony and Microsoft) wouldn't be as bad as both are using controllers.

Just curious, if it is about money farming, why are there console only exclusives that have never been ported or moved to the PC or even originated on the PC?

In saying that, One Eyed King is absolutely right. I started gaming on a PC and I will be returning to PC gaming once my computer has been repaired. However, the appeal of a console is the plug in and play aspect. Just turn it on and away I go.

PC you have to turn on, log in, log in to steam, oh wait windows updated and is now forcing a restart. Restart, go back in.

PC gaming does haves its merit, and I do like gaming on my PC, but if I want to just chill out and relax, I prefer my console over my PC.

Actually, the Eve community showed they had no interest even after the Legion announcement. And that was gonna be pc. So if they cant get Eve players you really think they are gonna get any others will come? Better to go console imho.

Consoles and PCs are like the lady cats.


On one paw,consoles are cute,dedicated,and hardy girlies who while they flirt for anyone,usually entertain their owner the most.

On the other paw,PCs are demanding ladies who gobble away at my wallet for the best of everything,but make up for it with graphics that hurt my eyes with its smooth frames and sexy graphics.

Ps4s are 350$ in america. Pre built. I'm using that price.

I use windows 7 as My preferred os.
Don't know much about Ubuntu or linux.

Steam os also does collect your data. I happen to have a steam account,preparation for my own rig(when I have money and a place to set up for it)and they don't keep track of scams with just word of mouth,they collect info.

And I don't have to worry about my data being collected,I don't tie credit card numbers to any of my accounts. I use prepaids only, no adress info in any forms,maybe a phone number and email but nothing else. My personal info is bare to prevent identity theft. I'm a pretty firm believer of living in reality and the digital world but keeping low footprints in both and keeping them separate.

You forgot: Tower, Motherboard, RAM, HDD, Blu ray disc player, graphics card, cooling system, HDMI output, usb ports, ethernet plug, wifi adapter, audio card... yeah he can build one for $350 but it won't be as powerful as the PS4 like he claims.

Okay now you are just trolling.

No graphics card, no blueray player, no audio outputs, no cooling system. Sure you got the power, memory and space, but that is still lacking other vital components for gaming.

So you are using extrnal methods for cooling, neglect the blue ray drive and I saw the specs, those internal graphics are not even on par with the PS4.

Yes you made a cheap computer, however it is not better than the PS4 as all those external components you are using are already built in. The challenge was to create a computer that is superior to the PS4 for the same price.

He posted this: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/n2bwvK

But as I said before, it is not even on par with the PS4 in terms of graphics. There is no blueray drive or internal cooling which are both included with the PS4.

Not even trolling, a blu ray player is part of the specs for the PS4. Also, as I said twice before, you do not have internal cooling or a graphics card that is on par with the PS4. Yes I understand people download games as well, so where is the wifi adapater? The PS4 has the ability to use wifi, so it is part of the specs.

And they are not that rare, you can still get one. Your build is not even on par with the PS4, yet you claim you can make one for $350 that is superior.

Why should I waste my mobile data watching a pointless video about a build that is not on par with the PS4 as you have promised to deliver.

Ethernet refers to cable and plug in which you use to connect a device directly to the router/modem. It gives you better internet access than wifi. The PS4 has both Wifi and an ethernet. Now stop being a troll and show me if you can actually do this or not, your procrastination and lack of understanding specs is starting to irritate me.

I take it you failed reading comprehension.

I have said several times throughtout my time on these forums that I do not live in the USA. At&t does not exist in my country. Prices are different in my country.

You are just making yourself look more and more like an idiot in my eyes.

It was that or spend a hour researching and and costly optimizing for the best price

Tl;dr Yeah,pretty much.

Um better performance, more Ram, more space for content, the fact that more people are buying PS4s for an increased player base? I dunno. Seemed like a good idea.

NZ, where out minimum wage is 15/hr, prostitution is legal, the government helps with your medical bills (sometimes its even free!), and its currently spring going into a nice summer. Oh and did I mention that our beer is better to?

Edit: Oh yeah almost forgot: Drinking age is 18, 16 is the age of consent, and the women out number the men.

Figured you couldn't deliver.

Hunting is fun here in NZ, got wild boar, deer and duck hunting all within a 30min drive of where I live. Not to mention that deers are considered a pest so as long as my hunting permit is current, I can go hunt deer anytime I want. Mind you I need to have time off work and a babysitter.

Also I drive about 2 hours and I am at the coast for surfing and boating, 30 minutes to the nearest lake for fishing and again boating, an hour from the mountain so I can go snowboarding in the winter
