Because Dust was designed to be Eve online for consoles. Not to say it won't ever make it to PC, but it probably wouldn't exist otherwise. They didn't say "Let's make an FPS", they said "How can we bring Eve online to consoles?". Does it make sense now? |

Was that how Dust was conceived? I wouldn't know, but i guess that makes more sense than a MMORPG company randomly deciding to try out the fps market |

1: Dust was a console game long before it was an FPS. The reasons being both that the console market is huge and if CCP released a game based on EVE on the PC, it would mostly just dilute the EVE player base instead of attracting all new cusomers to the franchise.
2: The FPS market is much, MUCH larger on consoles than on PC.
3: The exlusivity contract CCP has with Sony is probably in exchange for all the changes Sony had to make in order for the Dust-EVE interation to even be possible.

Really, how? Mods? I used to be a PC FPS player. Wolfenstein, Doom, Duke Nukem, Delta Force, UT, QA, CS, BF1942/V/2/2142/3, Arma 1 & 2, Ghost Recon 1, CS Source, and plenty, plenty more. What makes them inherently better? Mods can make games interesting and sure, PC can handle more players, but neither of those are objective measures of quality. I can use a kb/m or controller on a console and a computer. Dust, for me, is good. It's the core game that I like, not the extra bells and whistles that horsepower can provide (although they can be nice). |

You are not allowed to mod MMOFPS games that's considered cheating in all of them.
As for reasons.
1 Xbox said F-off we're not bending over to allow you to connect this game to your servers, it must be on xbox live servers only.
2. PC game would compete agianst Eve-Online the only constant stream of revenue for CCP at 65 million a year. They have to pay the bills.
3. Sony litterally begged Dust 514 to be exclusive. Last rumors about Dust 514 is slated to become a 'launch' online title for PS4 and work of the PS4 client has already begun hence the slowdown of new builds from 6 weeks to 10 now and chances are since exclusive contracts are usually per year would mean that 2015 earliest we can see a PC title provided that dust 514 remains fiscally sound investment.
4. Sony has made extensive policy changes to make Dust 514 possible on console and for dust 514 alone it be a shame to waste all that money in changing policies and wasting it all. Most of these contracts are anywhere from 50 to 100 million and sony gets royalty on sales made though the store.
5. CCP wants to advertise Eve Online via dust 514 and increase paying player base but thats nearly all businesses goal just ccp is rather passionate on how they want to do it. We're currently sitting at 475,000 Active Pilots and have about 10% retention rate. (4 million pilots made so far in eve online about but this counts disposable alts as well) So if PC release came out too many player may quit Eve Online and destroy both games. If dust 514 becomes a smashing success and increases people who try and stay in eve online you may see an eventual PC launch.
6. If xbox lightens up and psn contract expires they can port Dust 514 to Xbox as well. |

PCs can't handle DUST 514. Even with 2 graphics cards, my computer would struggle with it. You would have to turn down the graphics and lower the player count. Maybe down the road when PCs catch up with PS3, but by then PS4 will be out. |

Well for one, each and every PC shooter is infested with cheaters, be it just the closet ESP/wallhackers or the blatant aimbotters.
Ive played every PC shooter worth playing and each and every one of them has cheaters that pay a subscription fee at their local cheaters hub that delivers them cheats that aren't picked up by the anti-cheats, or warns its players when its not safe.
Wallhacks, Speedhacks, Flyhacks, no-spread, unlimited ammo, no recoil, unlimited stamina or just a few one of those packs comes with...its really not funny to go up against these guys match after match...
Each time there is a patch/banwave the skill level of these players drops, but after 2-3 days they are back at peak efficiency, ie: cheating their nuts off and calling you scub or PWNED as they walk trough a wall and kill your team in a split second.
Sure eventually they get banned, but when its a F2P game, they just make a new account to not "have fun" but to ruin "your fun", when they are ruining your day, then they having fun.
APB, APB R, War Z, COD, BF3 and it would also have been Dust 514 if it had been on pc, 1 hacker, 1 match could cost a player allot of ISK or ruin what would be otherwise a good game.
At least on the console when i get owned, i can blame myself or concratz the otherguy on a shot well done, on PC i am constantly wondering "how the F....did he pull that shot off at 90 meters full auto?" But on here i have not had any sort of wtf moment whatsoever. Unless they can fix cheating on pc altogether, and this being my first console shooter since Wolfenstein 3D on the PC 20 years ago, i dont think ill be going back to the cheating infsted pc shooters.
And the most advocate people on the forum saying there are no cheaters on the game ussually are the cheaters...
So with that i think Dust has a leg up vs its cheating infested competition.

I find it difficult to believe that the OP has no sense of the history of DUST, or is unaware of the contentious nature of their question. Can the OP really be that privileged, spoiled, unaware, or helpless?
I can't quite believe they are asking in good faith, since anyone with an internet connection can figure this out for themselves or can at least get the gist of the history of DUST 514 becoming a PS 3 exclusive. And any reasonable post pubescent person doesn't need to be given a personally delivered answer on these forums like a little child always asking"Why? Why? Why no PC?"
Or has my patience just grown so thin over the last few months having encountered the "CCP fail so hard worst decision since Moses not put DUST on PC fail!" campaign that I am reacting to my own prejudice and bias and not giving the OP the chance they deserve? Perhaps their question was well intentioned after all, and if I have jumped to conclusions and misjudged your intent, please accept my heartfelt apologies.
In any event, please take a moment to view the following video, wherein CCP provide as direct an answer as you are going to get:
http://www.gamespot.com/dust-514/videos/dust-514-ps3-exclusivity-and-hardcore-level-interview-6397024/
And with about 900,000 new characters created for DUST 514 so far, I am really looking forward to the perhaps unique on this planet culture that CCPs decision to only release DUST 514 on PS 3 will bring about. Will this shotgun marriage prove to be a happy one, will it end in tears, or some wonderful combination of the two?
In conclusion, I have never seen a valid or even plausible argument that shows DUST 514 would have an even slightly better chance of success on PC than PS 3. But I have seen some evidence that (from the initial spark, which I am assuming must have been a sort of epiphany that occurred almost a half a decade ago, and must have gone something like "I know! Let's make a console game!" madness, utter madness, to this very day) DUST 514 has its best shot at fulfilling its massive potential right here on the Playstation.
But that is something of a side argument, and strays somewhat from the ontological thrust of this thread's original intent. |

Considering they have a 10 year plan for the game, I'm pretty sure they would have a plan for migration to the next playstation that would include a period of time where the game runs on the ps3 and ps4, and say after a year or 2 they'll phase out the ps3 and fully upgrade the client to take advantage of the next system. |

Let me help here.
Rumor has it that the new project titan from blizzard is an MMOFPS set to compete against either planetside 2. Since the popularity of blizzard games is extensively massive and that blizzard does have 10 years of mmo building in their belt they can release a rather comprehensiveness MMO FPS game capable of killing off planetside 2 entirely.
Planetside 2 has a 6 month road map full of features that would make just about any fps shooter mad and red and heck since the core issue with that game is 'why win, ergo why play?' is not being addressed at all. Instead we are seeing a large number of whines being addressed by players unwilling to adapt and a generic increase of laziness as they introduce new guns and vehicles that are the same across the three factions and are not even considering half of the goals Dust 514 is going twoards. All in all a new vehicle, a new pistol and smg and launcher, few cannons for the sunder and one continent and making it harder to lose.
Meanwhile Call of Duty is making another iteration back to ww2 it seems with a new studio in charge, they have yet to release a cod title as the main developer, many feel they would just rip the mordern warfare 3 engine again and do what tryarch does. Copy and paint over. While offering no new game breaking strides that makes it stand out as a real sequel. The last such iteration was the progressive system in cod 4. Its expected that mw2 servers will be shut down by then.
Battlefield Bad Company 3 is scheduled to be out soon and by gawd its the worst idea once again and its expected the multiplier would be a slightly spruced up version of BF3s current. Also Battlefield 4 is currently in the works now and it may most likely get delayed to shift over to the new console. Battlefield's new plan is to release a new title every year to compete with the likes of Call of Duty.
Fallout 4 (RPGshooter) is going back to Washington waste lands however it may not be out this year.
As for other shooters... on any platform there is nothing that's going to make them big in 2014. Halo wars 2 is said to be out in 2014 to meet microsoft's annual title goal. As well as possible season 2 of spartan ops for halo 4 to keep the fans happy. Halo 5 may not be out until 2016.
Matter of factually most titles mentioned above will get drowned out by thier newer versions in 2014 and 2015 subsequently so who gives a damn? I mean look at the original MMOFPSers for PC. Huxley, Planetside 1, and Global Agenda are all getting or has a sequel which usually indicates a royal screw up somewhere and that some sequel is going to fix it. |

Hmmm... No empirical evidence that anyone at CCP desired to commit self mutilation by aiming a firearm at their phalanges and pulling a trigger...
No evidence that they sought to do this in order to create an opening in that portion of the anatomy rather than a bloody mangled stump, or any other sort of injury that could result from a such an act.
No evidence that DUST is dead.
Or that it will be replaced.
But some evidence that there is a lot of competition in the FPS and shooter market in general, especially on PC. And the implication that DUST will never have a sequel, unlike many of the other titles, and is thus a lot less likely to be directly replaced.
Not sure if you were playing a sort of double devil's advocate and arguing in favor of the naysayer's assertions by offering a picture that when seen from a certain perspective shows those assertions to be baseless, or, maybe just grabbed the wrong part of the thread in your quote? |

It isn't on PC, I guess, because making a game for PC as well would require too much effort in terms of hardware compatibility. Despite what people in this thread have suggested, Planetside 2 is vastly different than Dust, and the two wouldn't be competing anymore than Serious Sam competes with Medal of Honor games. Technically the same genre, but a totally different experience.
Eventually Dust will get a PC port. It already has keyboard/mouse support, all it really needs is PC infrastructure and the ability to scale to the various PC configurations out there. It's simply a question of effort on CCP's part. They would only gain players by tapping into PC, and given that EVE is a PC game, they'd be sure to get a lot of new people from that game right away.

If Blizzard makes a MMOFPS, what makes you so sure they'd have it be PC-only? They wanted to make a console FPS game with Starcraft: Ghost. Who's to say Titan wouldn't be a PC/console MMOFPS spin-off of Starcraft or something? You're making an awfully big assumption that Dust will be able to hide out from Titan by staying away from the PC market.
Furthermore, Titan is years away. Maybe 2015 or 2016 it'll be released. Dust would have a fairly solid and involved playerbase by then. People who play games like this, where there's long-term progression and a lot of corporation-level stuff like Dust will eventually have, tend to be reluctant to leave their characters/friends. That's why games like EverQuest and Ultima Online, ancient games from the start of the MMORPG genre, still have enough people playing them to keep them profitable.

I'd like it on PC because my computer could play Dust with much better graphics at a much higher frame rate. I find the frame rate of Dust to impede my ability to play sometimes, and the game doesn't look particularly impressive. Performance and graphics are decent enough reasons to want it on PC. |

Anyone with a high internet bandwidth can handle a simple circle shooting another circle in rediculous vs rediculous numbers.
Now slap on different gun properties and soldier properties and well.. that number reduces with every new stat track, or combat variable and then dimension and state.
In theory the 128 vs 128 as mag did it is quite possible on xbox because mag cheats. matter of factly all console games try to cheat anyway they can in order to maintain performance standards. |
