This isnt intended to be a knock but many will construe it to be. The unfortunate side effect of Dust 514 failing is a "company" failure and this failure will follow CCP as a part of there track record and the record doesnt look good . CCp will have to rely again on word of mouth from pre exsisting players of Dust 514 to return, and for those players return consumer confidence before starting a new add compaign for there next game. There will be no wool blanket pulled over the masses eyes CCP spared no expense at hyping the potential of Dust 514 so any interviews regaurding the new game will still be met with aprehension given what was said about Dust 514 that can be quoted and "spin " as they might the stigmata of failure again will follow. Heres hoping CCp will deliver |

The best thing about DUST 514 is that basically no one knows anything about it. It's so far under the radar it may as well be written in pencil somewhere.
If the new game is shiny without too many hiccups it will probably draw in more people during the first month than DUST has in it's entire life cycle.

DUST 514 was a failure on release, but was ultimately a success in the long run thanks to CCP Rattati. It did eventually become profitable, and is only shutting down now due to the hardware (PS3) reaching end of life.
Yes, DUST 514 was over hyped and under delivered on release. But DUST in 2016 is a vastly better game than DUST in 2013 was, and it is the current iteration of DUST that will be the model used for balancing the new game.
The new CCP FPS will release with better mechanics than DUST 514 because they are building it from the ground up, and avoiding the fundamental mistakes they made with DUST.
The new CCP FPS will release with better balance than DUST 514 because their starting point for game balance will be DUST in its current state.
The new CCP FPS will release with better graphics than DUST 514 because the hardware is so much more powerful, and all the graphics for DUST were originally rendered in much higher resolution, so both reused graphics and new graphics will be at a considerably higher resolution than what we have now.
The new CCP FPS will release with good sound effects, because that is one of the things that was done well in DUST so we can expect that to continue.
Ultimately the critics will try the new game and if they like it, then they will like it. One way or another, the critics will likely say it is better than DUST 514.
