Using UE4 is very scaleable so porting it to PC and PS4 is also relatively easy. It's on rails Galaga style of gameplay also makes Dev simpler and most of its art assets are pre-existing from Eve meaning even that is not a roadblock.
Now, I suspect the mindset is in place and nothing I can say or do will change opinion on this but these are the facts.
Dev team for Nova bigger than Dev team for Gunjack. There's some cross Dev work because both games use UE4 obviously but that's about it.
End of discussion.
The Gunjack franchise is also proving to be a new revenue stream into the CCP coffers. Always a handy thing when developing other games.
Thanks for the Update Kevall. I haven't heard much official news out of the CPM, and I welcome new information on Nova's development, and certainly have no problem if it contradicts my previouslly established assumptions. I realize NDA's make things tough, but if you can offer more information to the community, it will make the wait that much easier on all of us. Literally any additional information you can provide is welcome.
It's such a shame that CCP doesn't have the confidence in their ability to follow through with their word :/ Would be nice to read some dev blogs and see some progress, but just putting it out of your mind as best you can seems to be the best approach until further notice.

If people would look up the facts before pulling wild-ass idiocy about CCP being actively malignant and deliberately farming the DUST players for tears to incite a riot I'd be less of an as*hole. Don't get me wrong, I'd still be an a*shole. just somewhat nicer.
Honestly I think we should all be thrilled that people are still interested enough in this IP to be offended or angered by it. If CCP would just sticky a thread with all the information they've disseminated around the community it would probably go a long way towards chilling people out.

I'm curious which has more traffic from people lightly to moderately interested in the game...
I'm also curious what's so radical about a gaming company providing the already shared information about their game on their own site.

Don't get me wrong man I wish I didn't have to do as much legwork as I do. I do it because I'm interested in the truth and because I try to take on a more journalistic role. However most people don't fit into that category so really the only thing that will put 99% of people's minds at ease is if CCP actually openly talks about it in a centralized location. It was foolish of me to think I could help improve morale as a random individual of the community.
Well we all know you can't improve my morale, it's a medical thing.
At this point I just hope CCP knocks it out of the park with Nova since they seem to be so clearly distancing themselves from their original playerbase through the iron silence treatment.

Pokey Dravon wrote:Eh yeah I know. Even so trying to cheer people up was how I dealt with my own feelings in regards to the game and whatnot. But I'm realizing it's pointless and I'm just aggrevating things and making myself look foolish, so I just need to stop.
Well hopefully you've learned to tune me out by now, you know I see the dark in every situation :p I'm sure there are plenty of people who appreciate what you do, even if they don't say so.
I just want to go back to creating content for this IP so if CCP could hurry up and get something out that would be wonderful. Not saying I'll necessarily like what ultimately comes out, but having something on my rig would make me pretty happy, even if I hated it.
Because I'm strange that way.

These can be either screenshots, PowerPoint presentations, short videos, concept stuff. The point of me saying this (and it's not to get a rise from some of you) is to demonstrate that there is a very real sense of progression in the development of the game.
Now in answer to the inevitable crys of 'why aren't they showing us this stuff then?!', Rattati himself has said in the discord channel that when they have something ready to show they will. And that's the point. What I've seen is still very WiP, none is polished to the point where it might be ready for public consumption yet. With the still active members of the CPM being under NDA still, we can see this stuff early and give feedback.
And my feedback to you guys is that it isn't ready for you to see without risking false expectations without it having context.. Sucks I know but that's the situation as it is.
I want to see new stuff probably more than most, and I'll flip **** more than most, but the sad truth is the game is still in early development. Typically, no one would see anything at this point.
It's good to have you around, you were always one of the best if not the best CPM when it comes to relaying information. Thankfully I've taken up map editing (and possibly even quest making, oooh) in Fallout4, so I'm plenty occupied.
I'm just wondering why the project has yet to be greenlit (at least publicly, unless I missed it) if there's such active development on it? Seems like something they'd want to mention, if literally nothing else.

Seems like something they'd want to mention, if literally nothing else. I'm of the the school of thought that the game was greenlit shortly after fanfest and there isn't really a need to announce it. Not that we wouldn't love to hear that kind of thing, but it's not really required to continue working. They rehired an employee who worked on DUST 514, CCP LogicLoop, specifically to work on project nova. That should tell you something. The only must-have announcement is the alpha and/or beta.
I mean that's true, just CCP is pretty trigger happy when it comes to closing down projects, so seeing just a little formal commitment from Hilmar would be a nice sign.
