Immortal mercenaries,
For five years a wall of Caldari steel has sat in orbit of the besieged planet of Caldari Prime. The Gallente who still reside there cower in its shadow, held to ransom on the whim of Caldari State Executor, Tibus Heth.
Soon, it will be time for you to show your worth, and display your prowess on the battlefield. You've all come so far, and the time draws closer when you will truly begin to assist your immortal brethren in the skies, capsuleers, in shaping the political landscape of New Eden.
A storm is coming, and when it arrives your actions could either assist in maintaining a fragile stability, or usher in a new era in politics that will resonate across every world in New Eden.
You can read more about the storm that is brewing here.
Lock and load.

exciting!
This means we get to pick our side soon right? I mean the wording in the dev blogs makes it seem like that would be the whole point? |

HEAR THAT?! "Dust 514 is heading towards launch". That means all that "It's not a beta anymore cos it's open beta" stuff has been complete bull crap this entire time! WOW I NEVER WOULD'VE THOUGHT |

heading toward launch doesn't make it not a beta. Many things were complained about, it was said "still beta" and have been fixed.
CCP has also said the next build seems like a different game. So even if the next build is the launch, it is improved from now, making comment still valid. It was also said multiple builds would be in open beta, so I doubt next build will be launch. At least one more beta build, probably 2-3.
If game launches in another year, it is still moving toward launch now. Moving toward doesn't equal now or even SOONGäó just means they are going in right direction and can see eventual end of beta. |

That's like saying "We're heading towards Friday" means it's not Thursday anymore. |

In my eyes it would be saying that if I actually said it isn't in beta anymore. I said it IS beta. |

Agreed, I would like to see events that have a little more options for me to participate in than just a friday morning to afternoon one. I work shifts that make that pretty difficult. perhaps when the game goes live i'll be able to get some of the dropsuits i missed out on from my corporation friends. |

Stop you're bitching, you know full well the event is going to last all day and long into the night to get everyone involved. CCP isn't wasting the art assets (in which we won't name or speak of) they worked so hard to put together for this one. |

In response to your first sentence. That's not what I said. I was simply mocking the people who are constantly saying we've already launched because anyone can play and Dust will always be updating anyways |

Oh. Between the caps and the distinction between "beta" and "open beta", I didn't get your point.
It's still beta. I think we agree. |

As a Caldari, you should still believe that we, Caldari, should rightfully control our ancestral homeworld of Caldari Prime; however, should Heth slip up and either lose this planet, or order the Shiigeru to attack the homeworld, it will be reason enough for a full-on coup by the megacorporations, citizens, and anti-Heth Capsuleers and Mercs. At the end of the day, we still want to control Caldari Prime.

Good stuff sounds most interesting!
I would like to see what ccp uses to have the players take part in the plot. What info they use to get the outcome or is it all ready written and we don't really influence anything?
The new skybox we had seems like the story has been written, I hope not but looks that way. |

IIUC, they have Devs and/or GMs monitoring the battle outcomes and watch the forums to decide the next step based on a flow chart-like system that the storyline people have mapped out. However, weird stuff often happens.
The UFO sighted by some mercs the other day was probably one possibility that they had expected could happen. There could be others.
It is worth noting, though, that when they did storyline events for The Empyrean Age, they actually blew up an existing station and some people actually lost in-game assets that were in it when it blew.
This event is possibly that epic and historical. |

Yep. There have been many times where players have created, changed, and even ended story arcs CCP had planned. |

Nice - time to polish my Gallente shotgun and add some extra rust to my Minmatar dropsuit.
And another Caldari bites the Dust. |
