I don't know if CCP had an interview or announced why they came up with that title. I'm curious. What does it mean? Just dirt flowing from the planets? And why the number 514? |

I'd wager Dust stand for how clones would burn away to dust when they died in the previous builds. 514 could stand for the date CCP though, "Hey, lets make an FPS and tie it into Eve!" |

Dust has to do with birth and rebirth, the life cycle, dust to dust, as to the 514, your guess is as good as mine. |

There's a series of short stories, one of which that details why 514, if you're curious. The short answer, however, is that before the consciousness transfer technology was refined, people who used it were prone to mental breakdowns, scribbling 514 on walls with their blood and stuff like that. |

They wanted to call it DUST, but there is already a game called DUST. So they added 514 and set out for a May 14th release date.
It is almost as disappointing as the ending to LOST, where they all died in the crash... |

They've stated that May 14th didn't factor into their decision to choose 514. It would be lame as hell if the Sleepers were all obsessed with the day a video game game out for the ancient Terrans. |

Only one player has ever figured out the true meaning of 5 1 4. Unfortunately he is now bound to underground secrecy to never tell not even to other developers who may or may not know the reason. |

Thanks a lot. That's just great. LOST was next in my list to watch and now I know. Since knowing that spoiler, it now sucks. |

Are you SURE? If it isn't how it ended, then there is hope yet. NO MORE SPOILERS, people! I'm a hardcore TV torrent junkie. |

LOST is like 6 years old, if you haven't seen by now then you must not be that hardcore. |

Dust 1 through Dust 513 were all being worked on internally but were complete failures.  |

Yes, LOST is old. I've been watching a lot of other shows and I postponed on that for a long time because I didn't think it would be interesting at first. But a couple of my friends were shocked that I didn't see it and begged me to. |

I was under the impression, in the book Templar One, when the Guristas finally stole the tech from the Amarr and released it to the universe and into it's own soldiers, he did so with a quote from the Pax Amarria, specifically the section from the book of Dust - 5 - 14 |

I think it is Biblical in some fashion. Wisdom 5:14:
"The ungodly personGÇÖs hope disappears like dust in the wind, like frost that is stripped away and scattered by a mighty wind, like smoke that rises and is immediately dispersed by the wind, like the memory of a stranger who spends the day and then is gone."
Ephesians 5:14 (KJV):
"Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light."
But it could very well be what was already said: DUST 1-513 were incredible failures... |

Wow! That is so awesome! I'm keeping this bible verse to keep in mind for the future. I can see how it is related to the game very well. |

Ah, dammit, I've forgotten where to find that article.
It parodies DUST and the bible, stating that DUST 1 was when CCP created light... |

Scroll down to unlucky numbers
That's my best guess, no idea if it's right.
It also seems to fit in with people scrawling 514 in blood.
