Legion was being programmed with the same modified version of Unreal 3 that DUST 514 was built on.

It was dropped when they decided to produce the new FPS using Unreal 4.

For those of us who are hoping for a long running persistent FPS MMO, building it on current technology, rather than a heavily customized old engine, and trying to avoid some of the core game issues which made DUST unsuitable for long term evolution, is a good thing.

DUST 514 is like the Hyundai Veloster. It looks like a sports car, but it is build on a cheep crappy compact Accent frame. No matter how much work they do on it, they can't make a real sports car unless the start from scratch with a better frame to support it. The new New Eden FPS will be built on a better frame, using all the experience they gained from DUST 514. I think we can be fairly confident that it will be better than DUST both in looks and performance. And if Rattati is involved, the weapon balance will be vastly better than it was in DUST 514 or release.

At the very least, we'd better have the racial gear we've been missing forever.

Fox Gaden Immortal Guides Learning Alliance 7	Posted - 2016.02.04 11:14:00 - [1] - Quote I was planning to buy a gaming PC this summer anyway. At this point what I really care about is that I can transfer the names Fox Gaden and Crash Gaden to this new game. Even if it requires creating an account in the new game and putting in a ticket. My Corp is run by an EVE character and will thus continue to exist. I am hoping there is a connection between the games to allow me to use this Corp in the new game. If not, I hope that I can put in a ticket to shut down the Corp in EVE in order to use the name for a Corp in the new game. (Although I would love to change my Ticker, it sucks) Some recognition of DUST 514 Vets in the new game would be very appreciated. It should probably be cosmetic only and not give an actual advantage. Hand/Eye coordination cannot be taught. For everything else there is the Learning Coalition.

If it is being built from scratch rather than just being a port, it might be more fun to start from scratch ourselves, with just our names, reputation, and some sort of DUST Vet badge to impress the players who are new to New Eden.

Long story short.... DUST University is sticking around Hello to one and all, You've all now been told the news regarding the move on the game from PS3 to PC and the shut down of the PS3 version at the end of May. So what's happening to the Uni? Its to going to stay till the end of the PS3 and then continue on PC. DUST University is the oldest Dust Corp in the game having been founded in 2009, so I'll be damned if a little thing like a format change is going to alter that. The move to a new game, on a new format presents a Corp like us a fantastic opportunity to press for the tools that we've always lacked on the Sony format. I will continue to bug/annoy CCP for what we need and as we've been here for seven years nearly, we've become the closest thing to a ten year plan still around. ;) So you know about the future now, I urge you all to join in on the forums and help CCP and the CPM make the new game everything we hoped for and more. Kind Regards Dennie Fleetfoot/Kevall Longstride CEO DUST University CPM 1&2 Member. Nice letter. I am going to have to draft one myself in a few minutes. Immortal Guides, the Learning Coalition, and the Learning Alliance will all persist as they likewise are operated and maintained by an EVE character. If the new New Eden FPS has a link to EVE as DUST 514 did, then these organizations will also persist in the new game. This means that in the new game there will be a place both for those who prefer to learn in an institutional setting (DUST University), and for the free spirits who like to learn in a less structured setting (Immortal Guides and the Learning Coalition). So whatever comes of this new FPS, we can at least be sure that new players will have support in getting started. Hand/Eye coordination cannot be taught.
