Open world just isn't possible on a console FPS, just forget about it its never going to happen no matter how much you wish for it. |

None of those games are MMOs, the ones that do have multiplayer don't have 16 vs 16 on their open worlds, and in many cases during the single player, parts of the world aren't loaded so it actually runs at a playable speed, not something you could do with multiple players in an open world. |

DCUO might be an MMO but its not open world none of those games are they just have big maps, if your idea of open world is 1 large randomly generated map for each planet then i guess thats possible until a large amount of players try to enter the same world and the servers completely crap themselves.

The maps aren't randomly generated, they've already been generated. Each planet has a unique topography, so whatever a planet looks like from space in EVE, that's what it will look like on the surface as well. And really large maps are really all an Open World/Sandbox is. We're just asking (and hoping) for the chance to explore them, and the New Eden universe outside of PVP. And FYI, EVE/Dust both run off a single server called Tranquillity. If it can handle 2000+ ships fighting over a single planet and not crash, I think it can handle a few hundred Mercs scattered across one planet and be just fine.
ugh I wish eve players would stop assuming that everyone else in dust doesn't know what eve is, i've been playing it for years, It CAN'T handle 2000 ships mate, they have to do time dilation, I dare say that 2000 mercs firing ARs and strafing back and forth will produce more server problems than 1000 clients pressing F1 at target 000231, in grind 0005 at so and so gate/moon.
Don't get me wrong I'd love to play in an open world, but people getting their hopes up and expecting all this open world PVE vs drones stuff are really jumping the gun and are just going to end up bitter and disappointed, atm this game barely seems to be handling the larger maps with 16 vs 16.
