Not allocating funds and staff to the new project, that's for damn sure. Hilmar talked about Nova for less than a ******* minute. And half of that was him stammering trying to make it sound impressive. Even DUST Jesus couldn't find the words at first to describe what they were doing.
Face it, Nova is just something to make the Dusters think they've kept working on it. In reality they're just totally besotted with Valkyrie, which will end up being a huge, expensive white elephant when noone plays it for the expense of the equipment. |

Why should we be happy about a game that's worse than Dust, has less EvE connection than Dust, and retains the same lobby shooter aspects that are the main problem with the EvE integration we're wanting?
I'd be happy if they just kept Dust going, but they're not even doing that. No, I'm not happy with anything they're doing. |

Exactly. |

Was nice to see the covenant caldari assault looking suit though in one of the videos. I'm hoping as time moves on we get bigger teams and maps plus various scenarios to play out with perhaps even outdoor maps liek in legion demo. dust as a standalone shooter not connected to EVE would have proably worked better. it just needed better graphics and stability
You're hoping as time moves on....
That's really the problem, though, isn't it? By the time this becomes what it should be, most of the current players will have moved on. By pulling the plug on Dust when they did, rather than porting it to PS4, and way before the new version is ready for PC, CCP have basicly stopped us dead in the water. |

By pulling the plug on Dust when they did, rather than porting it to PS4, and way before the new version is ready for PC, CCP have basicly stopped us dead in the water. So pull the plug? Wait longer for a legit BETA stage complete with all the MMO, economy, and single-player features we dream of before showing the world so that noone gets bored in-game waiting for more content? That won't **** anyone off. or Put out a staged release hoping to make a compromise between giving earlier access to the community instead of waiting another year or more between DUST and NOVA, and allowing progressive updates/expansions/whatever down the road that would otherwise halt current development indefinitely? To me, they're damned if they do and damned if they don't with this community. Pulling the plug seems the only real option if no one is willing to accept either of the others.
But they HAVEN'T given us a staged release. Is there any indication that this PC version is going to immediately take over from Dust when Dust shuts down? If so I haven't seen it. From where I'm sitting, this looks very much like they are shutting down Dust because it's on PS3 and they didn't want to do the work to port it to PS4 to keep it going for as long as necessary until the PC version was ready to at least have the first release of the staged release. |
