This. Forward compatibility annihilates the original post.

I wouldnt go that far for myself. I know many a people that you could give it 8 pixels with a +5 stick of destruction and they dont care. Graphics do help set the environment, and immersion. In certain fps they may enhance the shooting (BF3 sun glare in my eyes v. the other guy can see me just fine)
My point was driving at the developers that just wanted shiny first and everything else will be good because it's shiny. A lot of FPS games felt that to compete you needed the next greatest engine with the greatest look or == fail. Well that's the wrong idea, and games suffered due to it and drove the market else where.

What? You have a problem or something, because that's true. Shooters ARE primarily played on consoles and primarily purchased on them. If you have a problem with that, get a life...

Quantity of a game sold, = people playing shooter games at any given time? You are defending a ridiculous statement with bad logic.

You telling me 9.4 million units... and only 1million are actually bought? Or are you driving at overall more people are playing shooters on PC at any given time than consoles across all shooter games?
Oh which both would be wrong.
Also who cares if shooters sell better on console?

Misleading title.
CCP has stated that they will update the game to work on the new console. I still believe that DUST will eventually wind up on the PC as well but don't read into things too much. EvE is not about PvP.-á EvE is about the SANDBOX! - CCP!-á Open the door!!! |

I agree, I was just making an obvious statement. Obviously, I like PC's more then consoles, but all I was doing was stating a fact. Shooters DO sell more on consoles and more people DO play them on consoles.
I mean seriously, you should compare the numbers because there is a huge discrepancy between shooters on consoles and shooters on PC's. I guarantee you'll find 3 games going on consoles for every 1 that's going on PC.
But, just like me, even if Dust comes out on PC (which, like I said, if it does, it won't be for quite a while) I will still be playing on PS3. Want to know why? Because I can afford a PS3, I cannot afford a PC even half capable of doing gaming. I play EVE on a damn netbook for Christ's sake! Wanna know why? Because that's as much as I can afford! There are a lot of people out there exactly like me. We play on consoles because that's all we can afford to do.

You have to be trolling if you think there are more games 'going on' on consoles considering how server hosting works, and you have not linked any numbers.

Google top selling games... or games sales numbers by genre. PC games is the sims, wow, starcraft 1. Consoles I believe is MW2/3/blops, Halo series. Then take into account that those pc games have been selling for years and years now. (half-life 1 and 2)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_video_games
Woops I take it back blops sold 12 million... on 360 alone, and I was wrong about the PS3 top selling is GT... Then Cod series. Woops I was wrong I googled top selling games of all time...
But once again who the **** cares? Unless this is tied to some sort of hobby validation. (Coming from a guy who plays a lot of shooters on the PC, and did upgrade to play BF3) What does it matter? You have to had known that consoles were out selling PC's which was the reasoning behind the whole "PC gaming is dead...blah blah" And that less and less people were developing for the PC, AND !!! SO MANY CONSOLE PORTS!
Edit: HOLY **** LOOK AT WII SALES... Nintendo made "**** you money" off one game alone... 76 million sales. |

I would have bought a 360 to play dust. I refuse to buy a PS3 to play it. I will stick to shooting at the dusties from orbit. With luck CCP will insert a mechanic to allow me to deorbit a dominix on them.
Also, Console FPS is for casuals |

Analyze that more closely and you will see that a total of around 15 million copies sold for MW2 on consoles according to that list. Yet, you cannot even see how many copies of it sold for PC.
If more people bought it on consoles, the direct conclusion you can draw is that significantly more people would be playing on consoles then on PC. I mean seriously, the lowest number on the PC list there is 5 million and MW2 doesn't show up. Which means that at least 3 times those copies were purchased on consoles.
Because of this, you can draw a direct conclusion that more people are playing on consoles then there are on PC.
It's just a fact bro, no need to get so upset over it. No one cares.
In addition, PC gaming is far from dead. It's still the only platform you can play a decent RTS on, :)

I have a PS3 and I'm looking forward to playing Dust. I don't have a PC so I don't give a crap, Games on PC are usually crap compared to a PS3 anyway. " I spent most of my money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered." -George Best-á |

lol, not true, but alright Gana.
At least you don't beat around the bush, ^^
btw Zofe, that makes absolutely no sense. PS3 is cheaper then Xbox AND it has more exclusives then it ten-fold. Anyways, one thing I can be assured if is that Dust is NEVER coming to Xbox. Sony has literally removed entire policies in order to allow Dust to work. Which Microsoft, being the greedy money grubbing company it is, would never do.
It's why I refuse to buy an Xbox, the fact that they charge anything just so I can play my games online is completely ridiculous.
That deorbit idea would be amazing though... a tad bit money wasting but f***ing awesome to watch! This is not the signature you're looking for. /This is not the signature I'm looking for. /You will search for other signatures. /I will search for other signatures. / |

Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe.
Anyway, Dust is not the same as other console shooters. Dust is free (with cash shop) and will be continuously updated, even after years. It will be playable on the next playstation aswell (CCP was very adamant about this and Sony will not be making the mistake of not giving the PS4 backwards compatability).
It will eventually come to the PC, just not yet. CCP'ers have hinted at this multiple times, however overtly - Don't start celebrating, but a PC version is very likely to come at some point. |

I didn't say it wasn't going to come to PC at some point, I said that it was a good marketing decision, which it still is.
BECAUSE SHOOTERS ARE PRIMARILY PLAYED ON CONSOLES!
Most people are only going to gauge it at face value. Shooters are a dime a dozen, and many people think they know what they're going to be getting. They may be wrong in this case, but I'm tired of people acting like that statement I made isn't true.
