With CCP doing near monthly updates now (they should've started doing this along time ago) and the PS4 about 6 months away from release is it to late for Dust 514 or is it not? The Division (check it out its an awesome game) , Destiny and Blacklight Retribution , and BF4 will most likely take most of what's left of the Dust 514 population away. These monthly updates will most likely work on things that we always complain about and also add stuff that we should have had by now (battle modes, getting out of the quarters and many more things) but even if these updates do fix and add things that we've wanted but how many of us will be around? I'm not saying that everyone will be buying the PS4 but I assume plenty of ppl here already did or will once the price goes down. Sure people will still be playing the PS3 after the PS4 is released but how long will it last really?

What I'm basically asking is

1. Is it too late for Dust 514 too survive on the PS3?

2. If it's not how many people will actually still be here?

3. Will these monthly updates be enough to satisfy those that remain playing Dust 514?

4. Should CCP just stop working on developing Dust 514 for the PS3 , shutdown the Dust 514 servers, and start working on Dust 514 for the PS4?

If we get gamemodes and content . And if we get out of the grinding mode and really feel we tribute to something, that our bullets also count fore something.

I think patch and contents have to go hand in hand, aiming and bugs and balancing is issuse thats a never ending story, they will allways be worked on, but that should not get in the way of giving us more gamemodes and a closer connection to EVE .

There is a saying EVE IS REAL.... you do things and when you log on again its still there, something you have put out in space. In dust we just have a feeling of grinding with no purpose than to unlock a new weapon or module. There is no feeling for the history, faction you are working for. Very small map and very repeting, that is mybe wy so many is inactive.

One question CCP : will we get PVE this year ?


I now I now what about the core gameplay, yea yea its possible to do 2 things at a time, becouse if we wait for it to get a perfect aim, no bugs and perfect balancing we are looking on a very long timeframe before we get anything than patches...

Leaving for summerholliday see you all later. ( wounder whats new in August )

No it's not to late.

I say around what we have right now. If those updates are good. People will always leave for other games and other things but they will come back. I didn't play as much when i got the last of us.

If CCP does them well and i'm liking the July 2nd one. So i don't see why not. How many other games have monthly updates? Games can get stall after a month or 2 after playing. Monthly updates keep it fresh. I really like that.

No Dust 514 on the ps3 is not a failure it still has plenty of positional, you can't go off what the forums say 95% of the time, most are just trolls. Also they probably already have people working on a ps4 version.

Cheers, and damn we already got some players coming back after the Last of Us...to play Dust 514...?

I'm telling you folks, I ain't worried ^^

Well that's good to hear but the Last of Us isn't really "competition" for Dust 514 only other FPS and console MMO games are.

The last of us is so overrated good story not great, very short single player game, very linear and the MP is just lol. The people that get paid to review games were smoking saying it's a masterpiece lmao.

As far Dust I will continue to play one day a week until we have, more content,roll over SP, a lager SP pool for the week, a respec option.

Dust is free and people can play more then one game.

Dust's problem is not competition that does not exist yet (hell Team Fortress 2 has something like 60k people playing it right now why do we need to talk about games like BF4 which no one is playing right now when there are already games that people do play)

Dust's problem is it isn't a very good game and anyone who starts playing it today will get their face stomped in right out of the academy....so they leave.

May 2014. 05/14. One year after Dust was launched exclusively on PS/3.

I wonder what CCP might launch then?

If CCP can keep up with itself, and keep delivering good updates on the PS3, I could see this being one of the last PS3 holdout communities, especially since the big name games will have all moved to PS4, this F2P game on PS3 will have a lot of appeal for the poorer among us. With that said they need to get on PS4 ASAP, less for the community and more for the expansive potential of the hardware. If this game plans to be around for the next decade it needs to prepare for the next decade. The EVE interaction is the bridge that will keep this game alive from one platform to the next, they need that more than anything.

OP, you know we can't read your title without the invisible "but" don't you?

Not a hate post, but... lemme do some doom and gloom for kicks anyway.
