this game is confirmed to be intended to outlive the PS3, its a CLIENT not a dvd-rom, compatability shouldnt be an issue as long as the next gen consoles support access to the DUST client. its like EVE Online for the PC, doesnt matter what PC you have, long as it has the minimum reqs to run the game, itll continue running. and with the future compatability that CCP works into their games, i doubt that the next gen consoles will fulfill CCPs visions, refrence below link, or look it up on youtube yourself

i may have been making a wrongful assumption that consoles are anything similar to a PC, but i still cant imagine that a PS4 would be that far different from a PS3 that CCP wouldnt be able to 'hotpatch' dust to be compatible with both, but it does leave you to wonder, what happens during the transition? ps3 players playing against ps4? or ps3 only until enough players have ps4s then ps4s only? ive yet to see a client style game(like WoW or EVE or SC2 or DUST that you download) on a console before, and thusly have not seen the transition to next gen for it. it should prove intresting to see how SONY and CCP handle this task |

from what i understand, carbon is just the name they gave to most of the core programing they have, its not that they created new tech and called it carbon, just took what was applicable to other uses and made it the baseline for building their other projects, including DUST and World of Darkness. |

carbon is CCPs game engine, built from the core of eve code though, incarna, was supposed to be cutting edge for years to come though was the concept/purpose, they were even looking at including Ray Tracing at some point, which currently takes something like 5 minutes to render a single photo |

I BELIEVE this is the video that they covered CARBON and future compatability with CCP games, but they really do gear their games to be turned up to 11 on the high end GFX cards while still maintaining a degree of fidelity on the common graphics cards, i think that they are, or will be soon, working on tessalation that will bring the GFX to the next level, as demonstrated in the previous link i posted
16:45 or so Halldor takes the stage, hes the one who talks about all the CARBON stuff, i dont have time to fully scrub the video for his talks about CARBON, but theres a lot of other intresting and fun information there

*edit*
was mistaken, had more time than expected, cause other people woke up late were over 30 minutes late, and now ive scrubbed the videos
maybe it was the 2011 fanfest that he talked about it, because im pretty certain it was in one of the keynotes that he had some skit about carbon fest yadda yadda, i cant quite find it at this time, im a terrible person and am bad at this game and should probably delete my character with /wrists, i am sorry for not having delivered the goods
19:30 or so, NVIDIA rep comes on to talk about future vision/compatability between NVIDIA and CCP
25:00 or so CARBON overviews, 30:40 or so the annoying skit ends
33:00 they show a representation of how many code lines are codelines of CARBON vs EVE
40:00 they demonstrate CARBON character technology in action
44:30 mental ray ray traced picture of one of the characters in eve, the visual target for avatars in CCP games

Short version halldor has to say about carbon,
core tech platform for CCP, tech created by harvesting code from eve, developed and tested for years, refining it to serve the needs of the other projects we have
timecheck: 1 hour late now, *sigh* why was i up early for this... |
