Sony just announced a new ps3 model. Its is due out September 25th with "an incredible amount of bonus value GÇô more than $30 in total." for dust 514. Does that mean the release build will be out by then? If not it seems odd that they would release a bundle with content you can not access immediately. Unless they plan on letting these buyers into the beta. Thoughts anyone?
Also here is a link to the announcement http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/09/18/tgs-2012-smaller-lighter-ps3-model-unveiled/ |

It probably comes with a voucher for a merc pack, which would give them access to the beta. |

The only thing that bothers me about it possibly being the Merc Pack is that the Merc Pack claims to have "a $50 value" and this only states over $30. Perhaps it will just have the All Access Pass, the Dragonfly Dropsuit, and the Toxin SMG. Without the Aurum that might be a $30 value. |

I expect Dust release will be around the time of the Winter update for Eve. |

Whens the Winter Expansion?..
In order for Dust to be released they will have to make changes to EVE for FW etc in order for all the Dust functions to be there on launch it also has to be ready in EVE, CCP won't release an extra, large content patch just for Dust integration.
It makes perfect sense that this will be in the winter content update, Gives them 1 month or so for the next phase of testing which will put us at the end October or start of november which is when i believe the Winter patch is being put in?

I suspect they will be dropping the NDA when this new build hits (probably on or before September 25th).
If they're adding us to the main EVE shard server, and allowing us to communicate with EVE players who never signed any agreement not to talk about Dust, then they really don't have any other choice, unless they expect Dust players to avoid talking about Dust in the game's own chat (which seems ridiculous).
This lift of the NDA may coincide with a shift from a Closed Beta to an Open Beta, which could explain how they can allow players who buy this bundle into the game without necessarily offering a Merc pack or any sort of special Beta access.
As for full release, I'm guessing it'll be late November/early December given that this upcoming reset is expected to be the last for the Beta. This is all speculation on my part, though. |

CCP releases things and continues to add and work on them for years to come, we get 2 MAJOR content updates in EVE every year, Dust will be no different.
In addition to constant tweaks and bug fixes on an almost daily basis. |

I dont think the ability to patch a game after release is a good reason to release a game thats not ready. Maybe I will he pleasantly surprised and all the many issues that still exist will be fixed in the next build. |

I disagree with you there.
If we go that route, then EVE wouldn't be out yet. Since it has 'some' areas that are just completely borked. |

I understand a little Bork, but right now the Bork is heavy.
P.s. I have no idea why auto correct thinks Bork should be capitalized. |

I just worry that since this is a f2p downloadable game, a lot of people will "try" it out. First impressions will mean a lot with this type of game. If people stop by for some free cake and dont like it, it will be hard to get them back to even see the version that CCP eventually will make. |

I think we will see a big difference in the next build but i think we will see a much MUCH larger difference in the release build. |

Well I hope you are right. There are not many developers I trust as much as CCP, so I am not crazy worried, just concerned that now that they are in the console world they may be getting a different kind of pressure to deliver in the proper window. |

I agree and i honestly think CCP will **** it up to start with, but every dev does when moving to a new platform.
I do know CCP will get it right eventually though. |

There will be no release. "Open beta" is the release. Just like EVE has been in a sort of open beta for 10 years. |

Yeah, but they stated at PAX (IIRC) that the date is being pushed back to 2013. |

This is why Bethesda and I aren't cool anymore.
Todd Howard really dropped the ball with that 11/11/11 crap, I don't care how well they fix it, that game is dead to me until the modders have completely taken it over. |

This is very interesting. Theres a picture on the Gameinformer article that shows the box for this new PS3 and it shows that the $30 of Dust stuff is:
-Gurista's Saga Light Attack Vehicle
-2,000 AUR ($10 value)
-7 day active skill booster
-Additional gear and weapons
No mention of an all-access pass. I'm assuming that this means it's going into Open Beta on the 25th along with the new build.

25SEP12 is a Tuesday. So that would make good sense for an open beta release on Tranquility. Didn't they say that the next build would, 1) happen this month and 2) take us to TQ?
Was that irc intel? Can anyone help corroborate? Searching forums with an iPad is hard. So is typing. |
