There will be no dust legion. WoW has it but the trademark expired.
Give up. CCP will do what CCP wants to do.

I'd be legitimately surprised if you can quote 10 actual players who asked for EVE: Legion.

Here's an idea - subscribe to EvE Online. You can travel to different stations all over the New Eden galaxy, yourself, on your own spacecraft, right from the very first day. It will take you probably about a half hour to get from wherever you are in New Eden to anywhere else you want to be, with the appropriate jumps.

New Eden is beautiful. You get to see a little of it from the ground - you probably don't look up much when you're in battle, but if you do you will see nebulae, stars, planets, moons. In New Eden, that's what we see ALL THE TIME. :)

What is legion?

I totally forgot about PVE


Squad co-op and solo agent missions against npcs would be spectacular

Limited player spawns, designed to take between 5 and 30 minutes depending on level and number of players

multiple levels of difficulty and payout like eve

Training missions: small payouts, available at start, teaches basic game concepts like shooting people, attacking vehicles with a weapon that will actually hurt them, and capturing points

Includes a large number of slightly more difficult Level 1 missions that are thinly disguised advanced training missions (Destroy the uplinks left my enemy saboteurs! Capture the malfunctioning CRU and kill the insane clones! Fit a profile dampener to sneak into this base and hack the objective without being detected by enemy sensors!)

Other missions that range from being soloable in standard gear to requiring squad play and planning, and missions requiring vehicles

Mainly lots more maps on different planet types and Amarr/Min vehicles.

You'll be happy to know that me, Darth and Kirk are pushing firmly to flush the ADS concept and replace with a proper VSTOL attack aircraft in a fighter style..

I'd much prefer having a client side hit detection, just like in pllanetside 2 which works great. That is considering the game is well protected against hacks..

Client side hit detections makes for a more aggressive gameplay (which is great :3). All your shots land on the target you're shooting at.

What's annoying about it is the fact that you see every other players with a bit of latency, so you can be shot while you were undercover.

But the good part is that if you attack first, you get a small advantage over your target if he's a bit laggy.

I love hit detection in planetside, please do the same thing in dust 2.0 !

Skirmish 2.0, very vague but a game mode with movement and progression is just really fun to play. Having to take various objectives in order to move forward and having to fall back when you've lost your outer defenses is a lot of fun and helps give purpose to otherwise grindy matches.

It goes with my oddball desire to see the dropsuit and vehicle classes be distinct by role, battlefield function and customizability.

I expect to keep:
1. Skill Points
2. ISK
3. Gear BPO/s

This is already included in the EVE database and should there fore be easy to transfer.

Any additional like:
+aurum
+loyalty rank
+standings
+boosters

would of course be nice, but the top three are expected after the announcement at Fan Fest .

Or there will be crying nerds. With tight wallets for the next run.

EVE is too complex for the FPS community, add in vehicles with EVE level of detail in skills/bonuses/modules/rigs/turrets/hulls and capacitors and we have really top notch vehicles with a variety of roles, problem is infantry would complain about 1v1 and the like and eventually it would become a very very watered down version with consistant nerfs.

A while back I did a series of posts with the tag line "gearing up for conquest"

I outlined having MCC's that actually did things. 18 vehicle classes including a globemaster class transport.

So that, plus a proper weapon roster. In a similar vein to how blacklight retribution does theirs.

Constructing a weapon from component parts, plus attachments plus camps. I'll see if I can find those posts.

Movement and aiming are already in, 3-5 modules is already in, adding in a capacitor is just one more thing.

Infantry has the basics already and a capacitor for suits would not fit well, vehicles are not 360noscoping machines thus quick gameplay is not always required.

EVE can give you orbit but you need to know the range of your weapons, the weapons tracking speed with guns, missile speed, range, enemy ships speed, enemy orbit speed etc

EVE is anything but simple and dust in comparision is very simple, even with adding everything i want to add it still will be simple for infantry but for vehicles will have more variety and be a tad harder.

A well placed integration of dust progress moved over to new FPS.

I'm not saying SP or ISK which i believe they should not even move a single point of over.

But i'd be upset if they did something like. well we see you played dust before here is a AR BPO.


I would like something along the lines of well you put in 1,000 hours of game play in here is a special vanity skin that no one else but this special group of people who put the time in can get. Along with other similar rewards.

I love the idea of adding a capacitor for use with discharge of weapons, etc, similar to EvE ships, this makes a lot of sense to me.

I agree that the level of detail would not be a hindrance for an FPS. While I do think that the general FPS player would find the EvE skilling system and level of skill detail somewhat daunting, I can't see how that necessarily translates into a slow game play. It's only how you come to the level of skills you have that's slow, not the skills themselves or their use.

I would be content with what they announced they wanted to add in Legion. Mainly PvE and the ability to steal **** from other players doing PvE.

A well written conclusion to the Dust 514 arc of New Eden Lore and a well rationalised continuation of the same thing in the new game with emphasis on operative freedom and links to PI/Orbital Infrastructure.

yes eve is a failure.... never hit a million users... that's a fail for a game. Valkyrie is to new to be proven a success or failure yet... and most people never even heard of gunjack and its too new so yeah all failures.

Here's an idea - subscribe to EvE Online. You can travel to different stations all over the New Eden galaxy, yourself, on your own spacecraft, right from the very first day. It will take you probably about a half hour to get from wherever you are in New Eden to anywhere else you want to be, with the appropriate jumps.

Now that I think about it, an open world environment in the New Eden FPS for PC would be a great setting for this to happen. Eve Online demonstrated very well how that can work out. It's split up into high-sec, low-sec and null-sec.

For the uninitiated, High-Sec, Low-Sec and Null-Sec (aka Zero-Zero or 0.0) are different security status that divides space. High-Sec is where new Eve Online players join in and get use to the environment with a built-in space police (Concord) that ganks anyone that violates the simple rules of engagement with their god-mode guns. In Low-Sec space, you don't see them, but there are automated turrets that deal serious damage if you violate the rules of engagement nearby certain structures such as a station or a stargate. In both of these settings, the violator suffers a penalty in terms of security standings. The lower your security standings (aka Sec Status) the lower the security of the system you can safely operate in without being flagged.

In Null-Sec space, there are no rules and no penalties. But plenty of mob-style alliances that hold territory there. So watch out in space.

Something similar can be applied to an first-person shooter setting. But since it's difficult for a player to consciously avoid hitting innocent players with an Assault Rifle in a high/low-sec setting while trying to shoot at a criminal or war target, a system needs to be implemented.

So I put together this old idea back when Project Legion was a hot topic.

What do you think?

PS: In Eve Online, area-of-effect weapons like smartbomb modules are designed to hit indiscriminately regardless of who it is. So Eve Online often warns you of what the consequences would be just before you click "OK" to accept the consequences should anyone other than a war target or criminal gets hit.
