3 - The PS3 melts from overheating if it tries to use the Carbon Engine.
4 - Instead of holding the game off until a next gen console comes out that can support the Carbon engine (PS4), they released the game on PS3 for us to beta test using the only thing available to them, the 10 year old Unreal Engine 3 ( an engine they have never used before)
5 - With it being an engine they have never used before, they have to learn how to use it, while also coding development for it. (hence the slow progress thats being made in development)
6 - When Dust 514 comes out using the originally intended engine that can provide the pretty graphics and awesome **** the trailer shows, they will have YEARS of testing data already acquired and ready to use!
Now you know,
and knowing is half the battle!
Edit - Removed topic number 1, seemed to be more of an ******* comment then anything constructive.
This video was pre rendered (It wasn't actual gameplay)
Also one year ago we didn't know the Ps4 was coming out in 2013. |

This video was pre rendered (It wasn't actual gameplay) Also one year ago we didn't know the Ps4 was coming out in 2013. A year ago it was assumed a new generation console was coming out in the near future by damn nearly everyone, since we were WAY overdue for a next gen leap. Not to mention Dust wouldn't be a 2013 release anyways, so i don't really see your point.
No because sony themselves said about a year ago that they weren't planning to release the Ps4 for a couple of more years saying the ps3 still had life. Also the lifecycle of Sonys systems are 7 years and the ps3 was released in 2006 so actually the ps4 wasn't overdue but right on time. |

Dust 514 on the ps3 never used the carbon engine. I swear I heard that. What did it use before Chrome?
Dust 514 did use the Carbon engine but it was too powerful for the ps3 so they decided to make it on UE3. |

Really? lemme find that post i was talking about up above. i thought for sure it read that they changed their minds before releasing it to closed beta.
Oh no they didn't use it for closed beta only alpha testing. They changed to UE3 before anyone outside of CCP got a hold of it. |

As for PS4, with t being a CISC not RISC proc, might be more familiar to them. I wonde with all the Uscript if any of that code would be salvageable/ usable if they go for UE4
But that's the thing. To port from ps3 to ps4 will be VERY hard and time consuming because of the differences. It will take them at least 2 years to fully port it over. |
