Depends... could they bring the carbon engine to the PS4? If so.. sounds like they could spend a lot more time developing and testing content than trying optimize for UE3 on the PS3.
After playing this game for the last 5 months, the biggest impression I get is that either:
a) The PS3 just cannot handle this game the way its meant to be played, and the game will always be of poor quality while its on this console.
or
b) The dev team can't figure out how to code for the cell architecture (common complaint by a lot of devs, and why PS4 will be x86)
The FPS, even on its good days, is still sub-30 and makes the input lag horrendous for any sort of competitive play. It clear they can't get this game to work, either through inexperience with the platform or the platform's inability to perform.
If they brought it immediately to the PS4 and killed the PS3 client, would 90% of us jump over? No I doubt 90% of dust's current playerbase will buy a ps3. But, their play numbers will be much higher.
The amount of people that will play this on the PS4 >> the amount of people that will play this on the PS3 after PS4's launch. This is only conjecture of course, but I think we all see the writing on the wall. |

tough to say I don't know...
Everyone I talk to is ready for the PS4. Hell... people have been clamoring for a new console for the last 2-3 years now. The PS3 is getting old and stale...
Maybe its cause I have a gaming PC now, and I've seen what graphics and smooth gameplay can do to immersion but I just can't see the PS3 staying relevant for long.. not like the PS2 did.
If the PS4 has a launch price of $600-700 I would agree there is no point in moving... but at $400.. people are gonna have a hard time keeping their PS3 for long. (imo at least).
I probably won't be getting a ps4 for a long time, not until I know exactly how third party devs are going to handle multiplatform releases. I thought most console ports to the PC so far have been half decent, and if we're all on x86 now the new console ports should be fantastic.
Its too bad they couldn't bring this to PC, even if I had to pay a subscription I would pick it up probably. |

Totally agree, the longer they wait to bring this game to the PS4 is the more they have to throw away when they finally do. |
