So what's going to happen to Dust when Sony comes out with a new Playstation? Will the game continue on PS3, will they port it over to the new hardware, or will it live on both? |

They will port it to the PS4 and keep supporting it in PS3 for a while |

rumors are that ps4 will NOT be backwards compatible with ps3 games.
if they are going to port it, they are looking at a whole new gaming system to deal with.
it's prolly gonna sit on ps3 for a while.
plus... if it goes to ps4 and not to pc first then the cries of a million billion nerds will never be silenced.

There won't be any port to consoles that don't exist, and aren't ever going to. The playstation Orbis, however, will have dust 514. |

either way CCP has acknowledged the game will run on PS3 and PS4 simultaneously (when that time comes) |

It's based on the unreal engine and I'm fairly sure that will be ported to every major new console to come out in the next few years. It should be easy to port most games to next gen if you ask me, there's so many running on the same engines these days. |

That's not confirmed, it's been posted by a couple of unofficial sources on here, but the devs and GMs haven't confirmed anything about the validity of that assumption. What HAS been confirmed is that the devs are developing DUST with the next-gen console in mind. Whether that means they're already developing for PS3 and modding it to run on the PS3, or whether they're working on a next-gen version of the client simultaneously, or just planning where they'll go with the new machine without having access to any legitimate specs or tools is unknown by anyone I've seen with real credibility. |

Yes ps4 will not be backwards compatible but dust is not a disk title, its digital. They built dust with ps4 in mind the whole time, they will not need to rebuild it at all, all we will have to do is download the client on ps4 (just like ps3). Just like they don't have to rebuild eve every time a new graphics card comes out, they won't have to rebuild dust. Client transfer is all. |

They said they want DUST be around for at least as long as EVE has been around (remember, that game will become 10 years pretty soon). So yeah, they will port it to PS4. |

Ps3 games will be released along side PS4, many will be the same title, and I bet a lot will allow multiplayer between PS3 and PS4, DUST will probably be like that. ;3 |

what i read is that the ps4 is an entirely new game machine with entirely different processing methods and guts.
so ps3 code won't work on the ps4.
which i might have interpreted wrong but i don't think so.

PS3 Cell Processor tech works differently from standard PC architecture (the XBox 360 works on standard PC architecture). The Cell processor can EMULATE standard architecture, so something that's not 100% coded for the hardware but is built for the OS will run decently, but not as well as if it was designed for the system.
The next-gen Sony console will be running on a more standardised system. If the aforementioned game was developed with standard systems in mind, but on the PS3 operating system, it would probably be a very simple process to port it to the new console. |

to those who say ps4 won't support ps3 games - you aren't wholly correct.
in general ps3 titles are on disc. so obviously can't be changed and set in their ways.
downloadable games however are different.
version control, means that ps3 can have one, ps4 can have another, ps3 will branch off into it's own builds, while ps4 can be tightly knitted with it. support would be difficult but for the most part possible for a certain degree.
so possible yes, feasible is up to ccp. it will be a very difficult time and decisions will be tough I'm sure but I think the community will need to take a bit of the pain too... that said look at the transition between xbox and the 360. |

Where did you hear that? Is it possible to link such an article? (I don't doubt you, but I would love to read about it.) |

I'll repeat it again
CCP has officially stated they will be expanding over to the PS4 when the time comes and its right.
Unofficially is when they're going to drop PS3 support and chances are its going to happen when the number of ps3 players drop to an acceptable number of losses. Usually 1% of paying customer base. |

after reading all these comments ive come to my own conclusion. I feel that the PS3 has just about reached its limit with this game, and thats not suprising considering its more then four years old at this point...... i mean weve all seen the frame rate drops caused by the massive amount of resources it takes for the game to run. Weather this can be fixed by cleaning up the code or not isn't for me to say because im not a CCP developer. However i do believe that there really isn't "much" more we can do to "expand" the game on the current generation system. My belief is that they will launch the game on PS3 sometime in the next year with certain limits to it. For example we might be stuck with relatively small 12v12 ambush matches, alongside PVE and a smoother scaled down version of the skirmish modes (along with whatever else they think they can cram in). They will continue to build on what they can but as time goes on they'll make the decision to jump over to the PS4 (orbis) because only on there will we be able to smoothly and effectively be able to run the big 24v24 skirmish matches they have been promising (in tandem with orbital support from EVE players). Of course i could be completely wrong about all of this because i dont know the "true" specs for the next gen system, and i dont "truly" know if CCP has reached a limit with the current system, but based off the current build id say they may have hit a hardware limit (framerate wise). But in the end who really knows right??? i mean will all see how it is in the next big holiday patch coming up :D |

That would explain why the textures loading on the overhead map make you feel like your using Google Earth on a dial-up modem. |

Since this is F2P wouldn't that time be like now? |

PS4 Dev Kits just started shipping out. Also reason why you dont want to drop PS3 players too quickly is because the lack of PS4 players. |
