All of those blaming microsoft and XBL are just making assumptions. We have no official response on this aside the fact that CCP sees PS3/PSN more "MMO friendly". This is hardly a serious reason.
As some other users pointed other games managed to make ps3/xbox/PC interact and this means it can be done. Weather or not CCP saw enough reason to make the effort is a different question. We are here to let them know that they SHOULD do this effort.
As for all the ***got PS3 fanboys out there try to understand with your little reasoning that you might have left that owning a PS3 does not make you any better than any other potential customer. Aside from that limiting the player base isnt going to help anyone and XBOX owners are not likeley to switch consoles just for one game no matter how attractive that is. If anything then as a protest for such a bad decision.
As far as CCP saying that it will be availabe for multiple consoles here's the link:
Press anouncement
 Quote:
The primary gameplay of DUST 514 features brutal ground combat that takes place on the surface of planets from EVE, delivering the visceral, adrenaline-fueled experience of futuristic firefights. Developed for the current generation of consoles, DUST 514 combines equal parts battlefield reflexes and strategic planning, giving commanders and ground infantry real-time configurable weapons and modular vehicles to manage dynamic battlefield conditions.
I dont see there "developed for a console that we will later choose". I know it has the chance of a snowball in hell but would be nice if you would accept you made a mistake and changed your mind.

Not sure if this has been posted already, but CCP gave their reasons for going PS3 here:
http://www.bit-tech.net/news/gaming/2011/06/08/ccp-sony-was-more-open-to-dust-514/
I don't have a PS3, so I am disappointed this wont be a cheap buy for me. That said the reasons given seem totally valid. This is an unprecedented game. It will be hard enough to meet their goals with Sony's more open network. My take is that CCP is telling the truth, they are open to both consoles, but sony was easier to work with. Note that when CCP announced ps3 exclusivity, they showed a MUCH more ambitious EVE integration than what we saw in 2009, when dust was for "current generation consoles". I don't blame them for dropping a platform in exchange for "one world one war"
Wat ? the xbox live id being the reason they are not releasing it for xbox ? Yeah good joke and silly argument indeed. So this was the BIG technical thing that couldnt be overcomed by CCP. Shure these guys totally deserve my money. I mean they are SOOO inventive and they just manage to get around all the problems so easily. Except for the silly ones ofc.
Good one. Totally valid. Yeah ... It's also very good that they asked their member base if that would be a game-breaking thing for them or not. I'm so excited that CCP listens to their fanbase. [customers]

Naw , actually the exclusive titles are the exception nowadays. And most of them published by in-house studios. ( or for that matter studios owned by console manufacturers )
Any serious independent producer actually makes their game multiplatform. none of the reaons "guessed" by diffrent people are real deal-breakers, they'd only make the project harder to develop. We didnt expect this to be easy for ccp when they started but if they did we do expect them to appeal to a larger gamer-base.
Excluding virtually half of the console players from it will affect all of us even if we dont play DUST since less player-base means less revenue means less updates and more money from EVE funeled into DUST. I say that since once this project is started i suspect they will try to keep it alive for some time even if it will mean money loss. More playerbase meas more chance of game surviving.
But yea, if you let your 10 years old fanboy ego think you won a round because it's released for your game console and that will benefit you in any way, please go at it.
