I'm just curious what's the strategy here... To be the only non cross platform console f2p title. I don't understand |

That's super sexy, so PS3 PS4 and PC all on the same servers? Sounds kick ass, too bad it's impossible for CCP. : ( |

As to why not on PC, no idea but we all seem to think it will be one day. It's rather easy to edit files on PC. Hell players even did it on Mass Effect 3, and that was just co-op. I'd wager a guess that's part of the reason why Dust is on PS3. Also the console market is a large demographic for shooters. Free to Play relies a great deal on having a large playerbase to have more potential revenue.
steam lets it's fans make the models for it's video games with the stream workshop.
Why not do that with dust? Make colored version cost real money, use the community of talented artists *who want a cut* is a great way to grow the games assests even if CCP doesn't want to use most of it. the genius is they still have to greenlight everything, and usually companies touch them up. but not always.
I really think it's this huge art assets dessert that's slowing down the game |

As to why not on PC, no idea but we all seem to think it will be one day. PS3 and PC have cross platform play with FF14. PS2 wants to do it but wont because of the disparity b/w kb/m and controller not to mention the sheer server load it would cause. FF11 in fact had cross platform across all the platforms but MS decided to be a bunch of lamo's and wanted to create a closed community thats why Defiance(**** game) doesnt have cross platform play even though internally they are capable of it. Because Microsoft won't allow it and devs are too scared to release a game that wont hit that market. Personally i think you will see even more cross platform gaming at least on the PS4 and PC end as devs will just go tell microsoft to **** off with their closed community policy and i really hope devs have the balls to do it.
PS2 is doing it. PS4. |

unreal 3 should just port to PC easily....
If different players can use different graphics settings the whole game should be playable from lots of access points, at least imo as a long term goal. |

I don't understand *shrugs* Either the Xbox 360 cannot handle the game or CCP cannot optimize it well enough for the Xbox 360 to handle it. Plus Xbox 360 charges the developer for each update....or at least they did back when CCP made their agreement with Sony. no, it wasnt on 360, and in fact will NEVER be on a microsoft console, because of the agreements microsoft demanded CCP make should they allow the game on their console. basically you have to PAY for new content, pathes can only come out once a month and cannot be bigger than a certain size, and the game could not connect to ANY servers not owned by microsoft. as far as DUST being allowed on PC, i couldnt care less unless i was able to have my capsuleer throw on some armor and do some shooting herself, after all, who can do a job better than yourself?
It's the same reason world of tanks is being pulled from xbox one, MS won't let them give players access without a gold account.
wankers
So the PS4 is becoming the f2p mmo console. I just think if only a very stong focus on PS4 if not PC I suppose.... But I'd rather see a PC port since most other mmos are going to same route. Part of what makes dust aimming bad during lag is everything is done server side. So it might look like a mass driver hits but the server had t go off somewhere else. This is why cheating doesn't happen on CCPs servers.
I know they do it if they tried, but either way sticking to PS3 only? hmmmmmmmm |

DCUO will be cross-platform with the PS3/PS4, not PC. DCUO will likely stay separate between PS3/PS4 and PC, as it is now.
Thanks for clearing that up for me o/
So it just proves cross platfrom from ps3 and ps4 is possible.
Neat |

As to why not on PC, no idea but we all seem to think it will be one day. That doesn't make any sense, all of those other mmos are all logging into the same server.... and eve online local chat and others can run into dust, why couldn't a PC version of dust and a Ps3 version of dust be side by side and being played by the same people? Didn't they even already put a graphics option into dust??? Every other mmo on that list is one server world as well. At least as much as dust is. But you can log into a PC a console a phone, and play them all that way too on the same account.... Dust was suppoe to be the 1st massive mmo f2p on console but it's not anymore. Shouldn't they adapt? If I remember right, Sony and CCP have a deal for a few years of exclusivity on playstation, I think it was a 3 year deal from launch day if I remember right. So that's why Dust was released prematurely But I don't get the fuzz from everyone lately that Dust will/should come to PC. The whole point of Dust is to break new borders and reach out to a new audience. The reason why EVEOrs aren't able to access new content from their EVEO account is because it's not meant for you, *******. And isn't EVEO enough? Want all possible games you can think of combined into one mega hyper game?
PS4 is fine too I just mean it'll be the only last gen mmo on themarket while the rest are on both pc and ps4 |
