Title says it all. CCP Hellmar (CEO, CCP) CCP Praetorian (Creative Director) and CCP Jian (Executive Producer) are all coming to chat on Friday the 28th of September at 04:00GMT (Thursday 21:00 PDT, Friday 00:00 EDT) on IRC. This will take place in the #DUST514 channel (not the beta channel). You can either connect using your own client (point it to irc.coldfront.net, ports are 6667 and 8080 for standard, 7778 for SSL) or use the Mibbit client provided here.
This event is going to be run in two different channels. #DUST514 is where the questions will be posted, and then answered by CCP. You will be unable to talk in this channel during the event. #DUST514.q will be where you can discuss with other participants, and pose your questions to CCP. (Note that neither of these channels are restricted so no registration is required to join) If you're unfamiliar with IRC, I recommend you arrive early so that you don't miss anything and so that we can give you a hand if you're having trouble.
If you are using the Mibbit client
I highly recommend that you change your nick when you first start the Mibbit client. No spaces are allowed, but you can use an underscore instead. The Mibbit client linked will only join #DUST514 by default. In order to join the second channel, you can click the "#DUSt514.q" link at the end of the topic message that comes up when you first connect, or you can type (without quotes) "/join #DUST514.q"
To help us actually pick out questions from general discussion, we would ask you to add "Q: " to the beginning of your question. An example is:
Quote:Q: When do we get Pink MCCs?
This will help us filter out questions from the rest of the discussion. While forgetting to add "Q: " won't mean your question won't get picked, it just makes it harder for us to pick it out from everything else.
Logs will be provided after the event for those that can't make it. If you can't make it but wish to ask a question, I suggest that you find someone that does, or post it in this thread and hope someone will ask it for you.
If you have any questions about anything else regarding the event, feel free to post here or ask me on IRC (you can connect via the Mibbit client - prior to the event #DUST514 will be open to everyone to chat, or you can PM me using /query Grideris). |

Q: Favorite feature?
Q: Lessons learned, Mistakes, Regrets?
Q: A feature you want in the game but dont have time for right now?
Q: Free for all / exploration exploration with building 'privately owned bases' districts in the far future? (2014?)
Q: Using Dust 514 for Outpost/Station take overs as a possibile alternative to shooting one in space hours on end?
Q: Any consideration of renaming the 'blueprints' into liscences? This may alleviate some confusion later on when industry gets introduced dust 514 side.
Q: What are the current UVT Plans and any word on the seperate eve voice client/server possibility (IE Eve corp/allaince rents one via plex and api/crest allows dust 514ers to use thier channels)
Q: When the PS4 comes out what criteria would require CCP to drop support for Dust 514 on the PS3? x<1% of player base similar to how SM1(DX8) and SM2 support was dropped for Eve? Some of us are trying to budget for the ps4 now and would like a possible idea of when we need to have one by. |

You can blame me for that, I was a little slow getting everything setup and ready before I announced. I promise I'll try to give more warning next time. |

Q: with the current build, can we get a definite answer on the stability of the next build? or the problems have been found and are currently being worked on?
Q: when corporations drop in, will they be menu driven like the marketplace that has to load up every time it is accessed or more of a database ? will high corp member count put extra strain on the game?
Q: will we see any new AV weapons or weapons in general in the incoming build?
Q: maps, will there be more as well? a variety of specialist class maps that will make it challenging for those who are use to sniping or camping in vehicle/turrets from afar?
Q: outlook on dust in the future, next 6mo, 12mo, 18mo? |

Q: About outposts, so far we have seen a Gallente one (Communications), and a Caldari one (Biomass). How many outposts will be available at launch? How many outposts are planned to be added after launch? I would love to see a Minmatar and Amarr ones. Not talking about maps, but the big structures like building complexes that are installed on terrain.
Q: Infantry cloaking, when is it coming? and how will it work?
Q: Since dropsuits are manufactured by different corporations from different races, can we ever expect to see them having different HUDs based on their race of origin? Like Amarr suits could have golden ornate HUD graphics, while Minmatar suits have orange or red graphics similar to Minmatar tattoos |

Hmmm more questions, ok.
Q: When can we expect to see those flying fighter vehicles from the 2009 demo?
Q: Can we expect to see more unconventional weapons? Like a sniper rifle that launches exploding drone disks that the player must guide by remote control. Maybe a stasis pistol that slows down, temporarily immobalizes, and disable HUD of those hit. Maybe a targeting gun that launches a swarm of tiny drones to distract an enemy and drain his shelds, and when unused, the drones boost the shields of the user by orbiting him. Something generally unexpected and cool.
Q: Can we get more racial variants of the knife besides just the nova knife? like a Minmatar blow torch improvised into a burning melee weapon (sketch here). |

Q: How are you going to enable Dust players to build relationships with EVE players? Is shared social spaces on stations something that we can expect sooner rather than sooner(tm)
Q: Can we expect an improvement to spawning mechanics. It seems strange that Mercs appear out of thin air. Sometthing like the drop pods from starhawk would be cool. Or maybe being cloaked after spawning (similar to how ships in EVE are cloaked for a few seconds after jumping.
Q: Destructible structures. Can we blow more things up plz.
Q: Will there be a launch event in-game in EVE? It would be cool if EVE players could enter an area similar to the Dust space currently in the PlayStation Home in order to learn more about the game and meet dust players.
Maybe you could enable previews for dust items in the market so EVE players can look at the models for the dropsuits and other items. Some new items in the Nex store inspired by the Dust514 would be fun too. Maybe a video in the captains quarters. |

1. When will corporations be able to have "Corp Battles" versus each other for amusement until we get low sec and null? Will the next update bring full or very in depth corporation management?
When can we expect to see some of the "SoonTM" sections of the menu present? Any hints or ideas you can give on what they contain?
Laser rifles... When? :)
What are your plans moving forward for the MCC and commander mode, as well as Warbarge mechanics?
Any more info on alternate game modes, like the rumoured Conquest?
When will we be seeing expanded player counts such as 32 v 32? What is the max CCP plans to push it too, at least on the PS3?
Any interesting things you can reveal to us? Tidbits? Hints? Announcements coming Soon or SoonTM?
Thanks if some one could ask these. |

Q: You guys talked about the ps3 not having enough RAM , how much does it limit your work and is possible where you guys can't add more content.
Q: Its been widely known that RTS controls don't work quite well on a controller the expectation being halo wars. How will controls work on the MCC for the controller . Is it going to be easy to use and viable ?
Q: Is there an idea how the warbarge can travel place to place right now.
Q: What is a idea/feature( thats not going to added anytime soon or in an upcoming expansion ) you guys really love but can't add right now because of time?
Q: Outside of drones are there plans to extend the pve? Like say collaborations between Dust and Eve players in pve content.
Q: How much has changed during the development of dust, like scrapped ideas , vast changes in gunplay , how vehicles was handled , etc
Q : What is the sweet spot for the player cap in battles you guys are looking into?
Q: Is it possible that Dust can release on a different console , like the ouya , wii u , or when mircosoft loosens their grip a little.
Q: What are your favorite console games?
Q: Eve online doesn't focus much on lore is dust any other way to get more insight and expand on the lore ? |

Dropping from WHERE though?
Can't be from the war barge as its in orbit.
Can't be from mcc as it wouldn't make sense if you don't spawn near it.
How about NPC dropships that fly around the map on a random route???? |

Cloaked NPC dropships similar ro the RDVs would be good. The speed of the NPC dropship to the deployment zone (spawn point) can be scaled to the spawn time of the player. |

This I really care about.
Q: The EVE universe has wildlife. Will wildlife ever play a role in Dust gameplay? Like genetically enhanced wildlife to battle with only a pistol and a knife in Gladiator Arena, or a PVE mode aside from the rogue drones in which me must fend off the native wildlife of a planet while securing a target.
To those who doubt there is wildlife, EVE Online creatures I've found online:

That sounds like something you should ask to Infinity Ward, not CCP.
Besides, just because someone was too impatient to wait for a better deal doesn't mean they are entitled to what others get for being patient. |

I get that, but will it just be the standard maps versus hordes of bots, survival style, or will there be actual reasons to fight the battles, more like single player FPS levels as opposed to standard DUST battles, only with killing bots instead of players. |

Its a survival horde thing from what I heard, but I am positive there will be an in game reason why you are there. From what I seen so far, all Dust battles have a reason (usually hired as a merc to fight for someone's territory, later we will be hired by real players, and even coquer territory for ourselves). That being said, I'm not sure what you mean by an "actual reason" to distinguish it from regular Dust battles, since all Dust battles have an actual reason.
And yes, its only killing bots instead of players. Its PVE. |

Q : Character API access for dust characters, key management and compatibility with existing API based infrastructure.
I have read many varying things on this topic and would like some clarity. Can we expect the existing character API to cover dust mercs? If we need to adopt a seperate API when will documentation be published?
I am looking at a blended eve/dust corp in the very near future and would like to be able to offer our existing infrastructure to the dust players coming into the alliance. |
