As a Merc who is beginning to fall into the deep rabbit hole that is the Eve Universe, Is this a possibility? The new Ps4 seems perfectly capable of running something like Eve Online with x86 architecture but would it work?
Am I the only person who dreams of quickly jumping from Eve to Dust from my couch with a controller in my hands? Or should I just download the Pc client now? |

Controller based eve is mindboggeling on even if its possible.
I would not mind that fighter game instead though. |

Which answer do you want?
CCP Answer
Oh yes, that's definitely a direction that we've been wanting to move towards. We've done some in-house work and we should have announcements on that after the next EVE expansion release.
Real Answer
No. |

It's great that you're interested in EvE, but the game wouldn't really work with a controller. |

In a way dust 514 is the answer.
But yes I seen the eve keynotes and while the ui is getting cleaned up I don't thin its console friendly enough. |

Dust 514 is barely console friendly |

Console players wouldn't be interested in EVE. CCP had in mind to add EVE online to consoles in the first place, but they tossed that idea and made a FPS style EVE (Dust 514). |

I recently started the EVE trial and was quickly running EVE and DUST side by side, laptop and PS3 and found I can play both games at the same time, kind of.
Whether EVE could come over to consoles or not, I wouldn't want to lose that functionality by having to close one client to open another. Also there are too many buttons & windows to navigate properly and effectively with a controller, you would end up losing ships at a higher rate. |

PS3 has k/m support so the interface could be exactly the same. No, EvE will stay on PC. |

You are not alone! Anyway, I think the radial menu is more for touch optimization than anything else. |

It would be pointless as you would need a keyboard and mouse and getting people to buy peripherals to play one game (even when those peripherals are cheap) never seems to work. It is unlikely to bring in more players.
One thing they could do it give this to dust players:

It is one universe...don't see why a dust player can't fly up into orbit dog fight a ships defenses, infiltrate it and and stomp on some EvE player's face.
They stomp on ours. Seems only fair.

Anyway, I think the radial menu is more for touch optimization than anything else. EDIT: I think the one of the original ideas for Dust (way, way back, right when it was just a gleam in the dev's eye) was a basically a console EVE client, but they decided that a FPS would be better. (IIRC a RTS game was also on the table for a while, thus the plans for adding the RTS style MCC Commander soon(tm)).
Press "Down"t during battle and you activate the RTS mode =) |

No.
It doesn't sound like a "no" to me.
It sounds like a resounding "MAYBEGäó" |
