Everyone assumes there's not going to be a PC version, but from what I read when asked, he gave a grin and kept his mouth shut.
Of course there's lots and lots of things we don't know about.
We don't know how Dust 514 will work or what it'll offer to those that play it.
We don't know exactly how it'll tie in to Eve online.
We don't know exactly what the relationship will be or how it'll be tied between the two.
We don't know exactly what form of representation in Eve-online, Dust 514 will have either. Will EVE players get orbital flights to check out ground forces? Will the hiring of mercs be via shared forum or ingame - will it be private or public? Just how much information will be needed to 'employ' mercs?
Just far too many things to deal with, in the meantime people should be getting stronger and richer every day so that they are more able to withstand what's coming just around the corner (I'm not specifically talking about Dust either) and hope they can wether the storm.
Now I just have to decide wether or not an FPS shooter is for me, as well as getting a tv and a console for the first time in a decade!!

Originally by: Generalissima Actually, having gone through the SWG NGE fiasco once, it will be far easier for me to quit this time, since I won't buy any of the Dev lies that they will "make it better", etc. Those tricks won't work now.
If they follow through with this, if they keep it console exclusive, AND if it is going to have ANY impact on 0.0 sov, I will quit, and no, you can't have my stuff, I'll let it all rot somewhere so that CCP at least has to maintain it in their database, which will at least cost them something.
I didn't ask for your stuff. You're apparently so upset that you can't think rationally right now, how would you hope to make a contract in your current state?
What's wrong with it having an effect on 0.0 sovereignty? I will concede that if they, for whatever reason, made it so that Dust was the ONLY way to get sovereignty in nullsec and fleets and the current system were made obsolete, then yes that'd be a stupid move. If, however, it becomes a piece of a larger picture, alongside fleet battles and POSes and what have you, then I personally fail to see the problem. So it'd take a bit more effort to hang onto your space. Isn't EVE all about risk vs reward? |

Would love to fight the 'BIG ALLIANCES' in an fps =D
Maybe you can go find MoO on de.dust.
Meanwhile - maybe CCP could spend the money on actualy improving there main product instead of using it as launch platform.

CCP has a seperate team working on Dust, it wont have effected Eve development.

Edited by: Robert Caldera on 19/08/2009 12:33:55 to all idiots screaming "its normal a company wants $$". Its not the point here, the point is the existing eve community lose a part of their game, they pay for, to a bunch of console dudes you cant control unless you buy another game and maybe even a console!
There is nothing wrong with making new, independent games, just what CCP does here is extremely poor.

EVE players do not lose a part of their game. What is happening is a new part is being added to try and reach the console gamer demographic.

Damn, you guys really do whine about everything. I'm happy that my little cousin and I can finally share this great cluster of stars finally. Couldn't get him to play EVE, maybe he'll shoot little aliens on the ground for us.

We are losing part, if not most of our control of solar systems.
That's significant.
This konsole kiddz ground game isn't pure addition to EVE, it is subtracting from our game.

No. We're gaining a new mechanic to determine sov. The control is still ours. The only difference is that we need to adjust the strategies in sov warfare to include something other than POS bashing.

In response a 0.0 EVE player can choose: 1. be armtwisted into either buying ANOTHER CCP game to have a direct say in 0.0 sov, 2. dump a ton of isk into NOT PLAYING EVE i.e. Pay mercs 3. letting go of your 0.0 space or plans to conquer it.
1. You don't know what the 0.0 Sov changes will be or what part DUST will play in them. 2. For all we know, it might actually be cheaper to hire DUST mercs for Sov than to maintain POSes. 3. Good, things can be shaken up a bit. 4. Adapt or die. -----

yes, correctly, we are not only POS bashing in the future but paying console noobs for conquering the ground while POS bashing... what an extension wow.

What many FAIL to realize is that its the ONLY way to control planets.
DUST -its like showing your kid a lolly pop and then giving it to random kid you don't know to satisfy whatever sick pleasure you get from that.

"This way we can let players that aren't interested in PC games take part in Eve Online."
This isn't the 70's, everyone over 15 has a computer and is interested in PC games.
Consoles will be non existent in 5-10 years. Mark my words.

This is a really stupid thread, frankly. If it weren't for CCP's "greed", as you refer to the profit motive, there would be no EVE.. no such game at all.

How dare they try to make money off of the game they developed and have been providing for us (without charging for the actual game, the expansions or the updates by the way) by releasing another game.
Who the hell do they think they are? Do they think they built and own this damn game? I swear people and especially companies that operate for a profit trying to make money is just WRONG!!
I think we should have Obama make a unilateral commitment to government controlled MMOs. Sure the lag would suck, it would never develop further and you would get the lowest bidders to actually make the ship hulls, but hell at least they wouldnt make any money and ruin the game!
DAMN YOU CCP!!!

CCP wants more players? REALLY? How long did it take you to work that one out? Also here's an idea - wait and find out exactly how this system works before crying an ocean and screaming about how the sky is falling and CCP as, you know, a business, want money.

/sighs about to try discuss something rationally with a Goon, what could go wrong?
Adding to player base is fine, I have no objection why do you think there are sooooo many EVE online banner ads out there? Why do you think EVE went on Steam? Why do you think they went to SO much effort to ban macroers and introduce PLEX system? Because ALL of this puts money into CCP's pocket.
AND THAT'S FINE!!!!
But where you **** over your core player base to make more $$$$ THAT is where I object. If it doesn't bother you, fine, but then again your alliance holds one of the richest R64 moon spaces in the game.
An opinion should be an expression of thought, not a continuation of your endless chestbeating.

Yes, because for not ignoring it you need a new game, a new subscription (proabbly), and a new console. Genious CCP, just brillant way to do this.
This will fail anyway: how long does the average console gamer devote to a single game, how many will pay a subscription for a new Halo clone with some minor additions and interaction with a game world they couldn't care less more about? LOL.
WIS is an expansion which allows EVE players to dress leather and walk around stations.
Dust514 is a console shooter/rts which will tie into EVE and affect sov. |

Edited by: Major Stallion on 19/08/2009 16:18:25 really....Aalana, this whine makes no sense. If you dont wanna buy the game, dont buy it. I know I wont be. No one cares about what you think of the idea, theyre trying to make money in this economy, and more power to them. To complain that a company is trying to make money is a little stupid.

What about the simple fact that mouse control FPS games are greatly superior to consoles?
CCP have many game developers working for them, surely that must have crossed someone's mind. Or do they not care for creating good games, and just money?
