We're pretty firmly on the backburner, at least from the looks of things. Nova is being worked on, but it seems like it's very far from a priority for CCP at this point.

It would certainly be nice to know the scope of that work, and any relevant dates for actual footage / gameplay. Seems like CCP is content keeping this one in the dark though, so we'll just have to wait to see what, if anything, actually lands.

Seems like CCP is content keeping this one in the dark though, so we'll just have to wait to see what, if anything, actually lands. Let's be honest, last time they showed us anything not only was their management of expectations less than optimal but the community as a whole (at least back when we had a community for Dust) was also responsible for massively boosting expectations like a Rorqual in Eve boosting an entire fleet of hungry mining barges looking for that sweet, sweet ore that doesn't exist.
They probably don't want my kind spewing negativity either, so probably safer to just keep it under wraps. I'll just store up that negative energy in case the project is ultimately canceled and then I can just explode and the world will breathe a sigh of relief as I disperse into fading embers.

If Hilmar would actually dedicate a good amount of resources and energy to the project it could easily be the next Halo, CoD or Battlefield.
That's probably what's so infuriating for me, knowing the incredible potential they're sitting on and for all we know, slowly letting fade away.

But is it common to strip the team down to the bare bones minimum, stop content patches for a year, then cancel the game with no solid news as to the progress of the new project? (after teasing another successor for a year, before letting us know it was canceled shortly after it was showcased?)
You'll never stop my tantrum, mostly because I both care deeply and could not possibly give a ****, all at the same time. I'm basically smashing my head into a pile of marshmallows until they get so compacted that I finally deal enough blunt force trauma to my brain that I can't physically remember what the **** I was mad about in the first place.
About three years in and I think it's starting to work.

Halo had its moment's , COD was trash for me , BF was hmm ok . the problem with having franchises in game's , is expectations of something bigger each time . I thought D514 was already nearly completed with everything you needed in a game ( minus the mechanics obviously ) . but it had everything I would consider a legit full game . that skill tree and customizing suits , tanks , ads , etc was for me the "Truth" lol and more then enough weapons . .
I'm not saying it should be anything like those games, just that it could be a juggernaut like they are.

Conveniently around the same time everything was halted for DUST

I was just being pedantic at this point (and clearly failing). Was it really being developed that far back?
