Is it theoretically possible to put EVE on the PS4?
Take into account: -Graphics -Player Base -Gameplay Mechanics -Control scheme (Duelshock 3 Compatable) and whatever else. |

Why so many "No"?
I was just watching a planetside 2 video, thinking "Wow thats gonna be on ps4" and then I thought about EVE and how its technically 10 years old. |

What CCP could do is create a demo of sorts. just to get the ps3/4 playerbase to see what EVE is like. then at the end of said demo, it tells you "If you want more of this, and better of this, go play EVE on the PC." It could breath new life into a slowly dying game. I believe that is what they are doing with PS2 on ps4. |

Even if it is not like full EVE, maybe a tutorial, maybe it shows you how to train skills, and takes you through a small battle with rats. and then makes you scan down a few sites. It could generate at least 1000 new players for it. |

Ultimate goal is E-VR (spaceship dogfights for now only) type encompassing EVE side and DUST side type of gameplay. One client to rule them all and multiplatform
i was thinking this. Like an expansion to dust. Maybe being only able to gather minerals (mining) and create dust items (weapons, suits, modules) It doesn't have to be an EVE copy, just something to show the console players what EVE is. |

This could also offer the ability to link dust accounts with EVE accounts.
Start up Dust on PS4, have 2 tabs, one for Dust, and one for EVE.
Say a corp is doing PC. It is down a few players on the dust side and no corp members to replace them.
Lets say the same corp has 10+ members on EVE side doing nothing but waiting to see the results of the PC. Well, if EVE gets a Dust expansion, those EVE players could relog into the dust expansion on PC and join the battle on the ground.
Lets say the same corp is doing another PC battle in which they have 20+ members on Dust, and <2 on EVE. now those Dust players can log into the EVE side to give Defense to those ships providing OB support to keep them alive. |

As for the comment about potentially generating 1000 new players - why would a game with a playerbase of 500,000 put in so much effort to gain an extra 0.2%?
I said At Least. it may generate a whole 10,000 for all we know. Im just saying this is a way to add more to the current EVE playerbase. Dust can only go so far on its own, the people who play it and don't have the money for a pc to play EVE, are going to sit there and wonder "What is EVE like? It sounds awesome, spaceship battles in space, wish I could play that" Ofcourse, there will be people who think the opposite and don't want anything to do with it, oh well, they don't have to play it. But for the lower class person who can maybe save up for 3 years after inittial ps4 release to get one, will never know how good a game like EVE is. |

Being an ass to someone you don't know is probably a bad idea.
Also, just because you think I am stupid, does not reflect on what a CCP member would think. |
