**** tinfoil bullshit. I'm a betting man. 500 mil ISK Eve side if I'm wrong . Nova , if its still Nova by then it will make it to a console . but the best part may be , its going to be cross platform if they start using the new ( Vulcan API ) . if Valkyrie made it to PS4 , I wouldn't doubt NOVA will as well in the future . but I rather stick to a p.c since its easily upgradeable . NO, it will NOT be. You cannot create a cross-platform FPS. It is not possible. There is no possible way to balance controllers against Mice, and any means of separation of both player communities is completely counter to the principle of New Eden. EVE Valkyrie can do that because it's a game where a mouse gives no advantage, and a controller is honestly the best control method. I'm getting one for EVE: Valkyrie and Ace Combat 7 because I grew up with Ace Combat.
While I agree there doesn't seem to be a way to create an even playing field between KBM and controller, I wholly disagree that it is counter to seperate New Eden.
It is already sperated into High, Low, and Null secs, and will soon divide its players between subscribers and F2P (if not geographically, then certainly with limited content).
From what I hear, New Eden is big enough to have invisible partitions between PC Nova and console Nova. Why create arbitrary limitations? Why be against console players wanting a piece of Nova/New Eden for their own?
That just doesn't come across well.

Why?
Because for better or worse, CCP brought Dust to the PS3, and created a console player base.
A lot of us, whether they are console exclusive players, or people who play on both, would also like to play Nova on a console.
Besides, what company in their right minds turns away the opportunity to increase its customer base and grow its revenue, especially considering when it comes time to port Nova, the vast majority of the work will already have been done, and the extra expenditures will be minimal compared to the rewards?
Isn't that why games like Planetside, and even XCOM get console ports?
