Kane Fyea DUST University Ivy League 324	Posted - 2013.06.16 21:14:00 - [31] - Quote Marston VC wrote: I would like it, but it would have to be 15$ dollars a month like it is on PC otherwise it wouldn't really be fair. I mean come on guys, why would it be bad? You don't HAVE to play it, AND it would open up the opportunity to those who want to play it but don't want to play it on PC. ITs win win for everyone, and aside from people being like "nasdofjdlsfjk im a fanboy of one party or another and don't want it on the console because it should be on PC rawr"....... I'm not saying it's bad but if they do thatthen guess what? There will be less staff on dust 514. Less staff = less bug fixes and content. Also they are already working on 4 different projects (Dust, EVE, World of Darkness, EVR) They should stick with fixing the games they need to before thinking of porting anything.

There is a lot more than Star Trek Online to compete with here in the console world. As CCP is finding out the hard way with Dust514.
Delta 749 Kestrel Reconnaissance 381	Posted - 2013.06.16 21:51:00 - [33] - Quote The PC fanboys in this thread freaking out of even the idea that their game would run on a console is funny The only real hurdle would be control scheme, other than that I dont see a problem since cross platform play has been done before, is happening now, and will continue to happen in the future
hooc order Deep Space Republic 373	Posted - 2013.06.16 23:13:00 - [34] - Quote Obsidian Rex wrote: 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. Yes. The PS4 is basically a mid to high end PC....plenty of power to run EvE. Also it has 2 USB ports so no reason why it could not support keyboard and mouse. Furthermore Dust has proven that there is a big enough player base of EvE playing D-bags who own a PS3 for it to work on the PS4.
Azri Sarum 843 Boot Camp 33	Posted - 2013.06.16 23:29:00 - [35] - Quote You will never see EVE on a console. It would be like trying to play a console wearing oven mitts. The complexity of EVE's controls, dozens of hotkeys, drag and drop functionality, dropdown menu's on everything, windows, tabs... do i really need to go on? The thought of doing that with a DS3 is horrifying. I mean after a decade of development we have EVE as we know it today, and to be frank some parts of it are hard to control with a mouse and keyboard. Let alone with a controller. DUST has to deal with the smallest of subsets of what EVE has, and its a struggle to use most of the time. Now an eventual console version of their EVR prototype... that could have some potential.
Avallo Kantor DUST University Ivy League 56	Posted - 2013.06.16 23:53:00 - [36] - Quote Let's address some of the highlight points: 1) You would have to require Keyboard / Mouse. EVE has a lot of things that just wouldn't work on a controller. 2) You normally use external communication tools. Very VERY few people use EVE's in game voice. For most corps Mumble / Teamspeak / Ventrillo is nearly mandatory for most Fleets. 3) It would have a subscription fee. This, while per the norm on PC MMOs, is rather unusual for a console, and will likely drive away players. 4) All PC based, and independent update schedule. CCP isn't about to let anybody mandate when updates can be made to EVE, and if they did the player base would be -very- unhappy with it. It's not a move that would be wise, so they would have to ensure that Sony would let them push updates whenever they feel like. 5) What's the market for this? People who own PS4's but not a computer? It's an MMO so it's not like it's a question of internet. You can't play it either way if you don't have a stable connection. 6) Not a straightforward port. They just can't release it on a whim. They'll have to work for many months (if not nearly a year) to get the port workable, and even then it's a whole other version they would have to keep up to date and make sure no breaks are happening with. 7) Unhappy player base. If the current PC based player base knew that CCP was wasting development time / money on a port to a console of EVE that would likely not draw in many new players they would likely make a big deal and protest the motion quite strongly. That could do much more damage than just about any benefit could obtain.
Iron Wolf Saber Den of Swords 5267	Posted - 2013.06.17 00:06:00 - [37] - Quote Give me a mouse and keyboard.

Take into account: -Graphics -Player Base -Gameplay Mechanics -Control scheme (Duelshock 3 Compatable) and whatever else. They probably have to ship a specially made controller for the game or make it like dust Mouse and Keyboard enabled
StarCrash II The Shadow Cavalry Mercenaries DARKSTAR ARMY 12	Posted - 2013.06.17 01:31:00 - [39] - Quote Most of you guys have no idea how eve works unlike Dust most eve players run 2+ client at a time something u cant do on a console and dont think u will ever be able to. Also putting eve on ps4 would lose them money coz you cant run more then one client at a time Please learn about eve before making comments

Also, just because you think I am stupid, does not reflect on what a CCP member would think.
