Sorry, but no. That's some incredibly false hope for a console game. It's limited by the console, yes, but it's most definitely not going to be revised as new systems come out. They would need compatibility with the PS3 if it's kept as a platform that the game can operate on. You can say that because they're able to integrate EVE features into Dust, that means that they can, but it's just not going to happen. They would need to recompile every revision to fit the system, thus requiring more man hours, and longer wait times for patches. They'll rely on the single version provided and be thankful the later systems (assuming they come) support PS3 software.

Also, while the PS3 does have an impressive bit of hardware in it, it is still a 7-year-old console, and thus, still has serious limitations. Planetside 2 is capable of the feats it will reach because it is a PC game, and there's a hell of a lot more leniency with PC hardware in general. The PC platform expands day after day, and all of this console hardware sticks as developers do everything in their power to push the limits harder and harder until it'll eventually cause the console to basically combust.

I'm not too sure about a PC release of Dust514, either. While in the current build, it's gotten M+KB support, the game's been largely advertised as the first free-to-play PS3 game. I could see there being a lot better interaction with EVE and Dust players if both were on the PC, but I can see the end result in that EVE players will try to play Dust on the PC and will enjoy it on such a level that they'll not really bother with EVE anymore, CCP will lose profits and the end result could leave the game's interactivity aspect as a mere novelty.

This is some foolhardy speculations for a console shooter. The game is good, but it's not THAT good, and if anything, the general content is all that will get better in the years that Dust514 runs.

Wait until PC as well. and the first expansion for dust 514 is within 6 months of launch where as Planet Side 1 only had TWO expansions over 10 years. we're going get a new expansion EVERY 6 months.

Dust 514 and PlanetSide 2 both have unique features that the other lacks, and will NEVER gain from the other.

Dust 514 offers DEEP customizations, tons of options, THOUSANDS of planets to fight on, set in EVE online and running in real time, etc.

PlanetSide 2 offers INSANE scale, amazing graphics, and ease of accessibility.

Dust 514 and PlanetSie 2 will NEVER compete as long as they're on different platforms, because even with the next-gen consoles, Dust 514 will NEVER be able to offer what PlanetSide 2 can in-terms of scale of battles and graphics on high-end PCs. Consoles go forward one step, PCs go forward 5 steps. And PlanetSide 2 will never beat Dust 514 when it comes to the MMO features taken from EVE Online, and being set into that universe.

If Dust 514 goes on PC, that changes EVERYTHING...Dust 514 in my opinion would S H I T all over PlanetSide 2 with all the possibilities that PCs offer.

Dust514 will eventually be better than Planetside 2 because SOE will ruin the game within 6-8 months of launch.

If Dust 514 was pc only. It wouldn't have as big of a audience they about to get. While planetside will have these large scale battles. More people will be playing Dust than planetside 2, I garentee you. More people have ps3 than a pc with amazing graphics. CCP smart, if they do it right, they will be more popular than planetside and the better game. Anyway it go, the EVE/Dust community is going to crush planetside 2 community in terms of numbers of people. They should of waited to ps4 to bring out planetside 2 on both ps4 and pc. That would of made they community triple. I think CCP is doing it the smarter way.

Dust 514 will improve over time.This is CCP.
Compared to PS2 Dust 514 doesnt even compare.BUT Dust 514 is a game that will be passed on to future playstaions.Planetside 2 has more playercount,Bigger maps,etc. but dust 514 is like eve online.The graphics get better,the game gets bigger, and ALWAYS INPROVES. Eve looks alot better now than back in 2003.When Dust releases thats gonna wrap it up for PS3.But when dust releases on PS4 theres countless opportunities.We can make the maps bigger,the graphics better,the gameplay better, and the battles larger.When dust release on PS4 the game will be significantly improved.PS4 will handle so much more than PS3.Who knows when dust 514 gets on PS4 it might look as real as Frostbite 2.Now this is just for ps4.Wait until PS5,PS6,PS7,.........,...
Could you imagine how good the game will be by then.By then it would probably look 25 times better than Planetside 2 and have maybe 5000 vs 5000.This game has all this potential and more.I think Dust 514 and Eve will grow to be the best games in video game history.And To Me.That.Is a Fact.If there ever will be a Planetside 3 it wont have NOTHING on Dust 514

Thats true, Dust 514 will have a HUGE audience at launch, but I can guarantee you that it WILL FAIL on the PS3, just because of the lack of a dedicated and hardcore audience. Dust 514 will be the new MAG, only a few people will appreciate such a hardcore, objective and team play based game. This is where the PC wins, there are way way more dedicated hardcore fans on PC that like this kind of game. But on Consoles, people just want those plug and play, Run-n-Gun noob friendly experiences like CoD and what Battlefield have become.

I still hope that I'm wrong, and hope the best for Dust 514 because I see lots of effort put into this game.

Again, why is everyone so convinced that a PC port has to happen?

hardcore gamers are only on pc? you make me laugh. consoles rule the pc market we see it time and time again also pc will be obsolete in the future because of cloud gaming and there won't be this war against the consoles.

I did NOT say hardcore gamers are only on PC, read my post again...I said there are a few hardcore dedicated fans on the consoles compared to the so many on PC.

Also, PC will NEVER be obsolete, as long as games are being DEVELOPED on PCs...LOL...PC will always be the ruling platform...And no, I'm not a PC fanboy, and I don't even have a gaming PC right now, all I've for gaming is a PS3. But planning on going to PC again like I used to 3 years.

I refuse to compare two epic sci-fi games because they are completely different.
