Ummm.... damn is it me or did CCP completely forget that FPS games started out on the PC long before a console got a half baked FPS game? Why would you, in the day of multi-platform releases, focus purely on console gamers for your FPS?
The mmo I was playing before EVE is an MMO-FPS called Planetside. So the idea of MMO+FPS+PC is not alien to me or others that paid and played. What is odd to me is the idea to reduce the over all user base of the new game. There are a lot of people that have and those that still do play fps games even if they do play EVE. You would be far more likely to have a group that has played both games and would be an instant fanbase.
Console gamers, how many of them have even heard of EVE, much less wanted to be part of it somehow? I'd be surprised if you can get me 2,000 people that never played eve but did want to take part. I understand wanting to expand but why condemn what would have been an automatic playerbase? Why not get the game to work on consoles(imagine the halo tards flooding eve with their crackly 13 year old voices) as well as the PC to interact with EVE?
Also what happens in a few years when the current gen of consoles are being replaced with their new versions? Do we have to buy dust xxx2 or does it somehow tranfer over? Will it be a free download? Thats not something you have to worry about with PCs.
Someone told me about an EVE based FPS and i was hyped, now....I'm not to sure. I've tried COD4 on the 360 and was frustrated with the lack of communication in that game as opposed to planetside. It was bareable due to the fact that it was just a small time fps. Now an MMO with such problems would make for some serious issues.
I'm hoping the game goes well and will eventually, reluctantly buy a damn console to play an fps game on, that is tied to a pc game i already play. It just seems backwards to target consoles and only consoles with the fps side of EVE.
I guess I should ask, how can someone in EVE effect themselves in Dust?:D can i just send myself tons of isk to buy gear or orbital bombard a position with sniper noobs that I spot whle on the ground?
I hate you....but give us more details. :/ :P
oh and the only one ill be giving my stuffz to will be myself in dust.

What do you expect?
Horrible ideas usually spawn threads.
Fire whoever came up with merging console kids with PC eve players.

The CEO seems to be quite content with the idea ! Although I doubt he came up with the idea. CEOs in general seem to be rather clueless.
Wonder if they expected this sort of response on eve general/DUST forums though...
