LOL Interior spaces are not the problem.

Giant open maps eating up tons of memory for no reason are a problem.

Making all 32 people a separate model in the PS3 ram along with null cannon models, CRUs, Supply Depots, and whatever I am missing there are a problem.

Terribly ineffective lighting systems are a problem.


Basically terrible planning and execution are the problem and have been from the start. No amount of system resources is going to make up for that.


My only hope is that after many talks of "boarding parties" in the recent months we will see Legion unveiled at fanfest 16. Honestly if we are still sitting in silence after then I will have abandoned New Eden entirely in favor of supporting companies that actually know how to treat the people that spend money on their products.

At this point I only log into Eve or Dust just to say hello to a few friends that have not moved to the PS4. I only come here to the forums praying that some information has gotten leaked or maybe CCP has decided to wise up and use words instead of allowing rumor mongers to run rampant with despair.

Looks like all my whining and bitching at the Lore devs finally paid off.

Was kinda hoping for something a bit more grandiose but I'll take what I can get

In terms of Dust it is a very fair assumption. The PS3 is too far gone for them to expect some crazy new move to be profitable.

In terms of it being hints for a new game I am torn. It was widely stated after the Legion announcement that no link would be pursued from the start in favor of focusing on making a "good game".

Fanfest 16 will mark two years since the infamous FF14 and well over a year since the iron curtain was drawn tight on development of Legion. For CCP to think they can keep people totally in the dark for that long and with people switching daily to next gen consoles would be absolutely naive.

Attempting to go past FF16 without something being said about what they are going to do in terms of a FPS would probably be the cherry on top of the mismanagement which has been the entire life of this game.

I have never seen a company so able to get followers that are so loyal along with mistreating them almost as badly as they possibly can. To be clear I am not talking about the Dust team including but not limited to Rattati and Frame but about upper levels of CCP starting from Rouge and going all the way up to Hilmar. They should all be thanking Rattati beyond belief for the fact that this game is still alive and has in some form turned profitable even while they did everything they could to kill off the game through what would seem to be an absolute lack of resources, a total shut out to a future after making the game solely based on its future, and among that silence pumping out products even from the studio that is meant to be working on Dust or the new FPS.

For the record, Rouge gets a lot of undeserved flack. Hilmar as well gets a lot more flack than he deserves, especially for the FF14 debacle. Fact of the matter is that when you have a company of several hundred people, the CEO and EP aren't always going to be the shot callers. Unfortunately Rouge and Hilmar were the public faces at the time, so they received the blame.

I'm sorry, but that is some weak sauce justification.

If the CEO isn't a shot caller, he isn't the CEO. If the EP isn't in charge of his project, he isn't an EP.

Do you really expect people to drink the kool-aid along with you and blame a coder for what happened at ff14?

The CEO and EP got let off easy for the blame they got.
