I own a PS3 but I'm simply not interested because I don't play FPS all that much for years now (played Quakeworld and Q3 Rocket Arena in esports leagues, but lost interest at some point).
If I play an FPS, I play it exclusively on PC due to better graphics and controls.
Moreover, due to my general lack of interest in FPS, it has to offer really unique gameplay (like Day-Z) or somewhat decent gameplay combined with awesome graphics (like BF3) to lure me - Dust appears to have neither.
Last but not least, I despise the free to play approach.
Anyway - I'm obviously not CCPs target group when it comes to dust.
I expect it to fail hard, but hope it does decently enough to not lead CCP into bankrupcy. You know... morons. |

You say better controls but Dust has Keyboard and Mouse support on the PS3, so that's a non issue. |

Well yeah - but then, games that allow both tend to **** off the mainstream console crowd because they tend to get owned ny keyboard+mouse players.
I personally use Ps3 Predator for multiplayer games on the PS3 in case they don't support mouse+keyboard, but the configurability is still poor and it lags a little compared to PC - really annoying (I'm really anal about my mouse sensitivity).
I got voted off GTA IV and Red Dead Redemption servers on a regular basis due to being accused of using 'hacks' and 'aimbots'. The dualshock crowd doesn't seem to like mouse+keyboard users in their games, obviously .
Anyway - you asked for opinions on dust, that was mine. I don't intend to play it and it most likely wont affect me a lot as I never dabbled in PI and stopped caring about using 0.0 sov in the last 4 years.
Dust will certainly attract a small fanbase, but all in all, I think it's a stupid idea and wish CCP the best of luck so it doesn't break their neck - they'll need it. You know... morons. |

I got sick of FPS games when I was in college and I was playing against people who had every inch of every Goldeneye map memorized. The few rounds of Dust I have played has improved my view of the genre, I have been trying to get in more play time but I really haven't had the free time. One of my Eve buds has been excited over the concept since it was first announced and it got him to go out a buy a PS3.
I love the concept and the unlimited potential behind Dust. How many null-sec CEO's would love to put an Endor style shield around their outpost? Nothing like that has been officially mentioned, however I don't think it is out of the realm of possibilities and illustrates the range that Dust could have.
I think its important to note, only basic game play is being tested in the beta and all that programming is being done in China. The developers in Iceland are the ones working on the Eve/Dust link which only the very basics has been tested such as chatting in local. Any corporation whether , null, FW, WH or empire based should be embracing dust, meeting the players, learning the ins and outs of the game. Those that fail to do will find themselves behind a giant curve. |

What do people think of the economic impact Dust could have on EVE?...
There's an article recently gone live on TM.com that says dust is just going to be a huge isk sink for the time being. |

uh ... I've lurked around the public Dust forums that are out there and it looks there's more to it than I thought before; shame on me for speaking about what I don't know well enough.
They're more eager to take part in sov warfare than the average of us it seems. Besides I'm realizing now that while here there's a strong resistance to each and every change that's proposed (no devblogs gets out without eliciting at least a little whining), they instead could be drive a lot of change because they are basically new players in a new game. Despite the misconception that Dust is a sort of 'tool' it could really become a terrible pain having to deal with them ... if CCP does it right.
Should really take the time to look at Dust forums, instead of the limited information on Eve related sites, it's a completely different music.
So thank you very much for the heads up.

If Dust has no industry, the ISK sinked into it would be money payed for taking planets in FW? Is FW as it is now capable of generating contracts for Dust clans? |

Was interesting to read though, specially the tips on character performance. My impression from the early videos was that as much as getting hit meant certain death 99% of the time no matter what the player was wearing... and apparently that's it.
In a meta world, i wonder why would anyone bother to send troops to battle if they couldn't take the slightest bruise to their ubersuits -would be better to send in robots and let the best hardware/software win the battle. Would be impressive to see billions of dollars ultraprecisely vaporizing each other in a few minutes, then the few remnants winning over the lunar landscape of annihilation left after the battle...
That's been an issue in EVE as well really. Alot of games have the die, die, die, do it again mechanic. They don't have the death penalty EVE or Dust have though. |

You know what would make sense? Two games that are so close linked that they even affect each other, one released for the PC, one for the Playstation 3 only. It is like they are insisting to make this not work and handicap their project for what? Well i guess they must have their reasons, most likely .... money?
I just browsed quickly through the PS3 "games only avalible on PS3" and there are one or two i'd play. Still - what the actual ****. I'd play DUST 514 just for the fun of it to see it from both sides, but I will certainly not put another console up that I barely ever use, right beside the Xbox. |

Don't own a PS3 either. Hopefully Dust will expand beyond just a FPS game. I picture a Dust player standing around waiting for their next match and a video on some in station display appears. "Tired of being grunt and eating 3 squares of dirt a day? Then see the stars and be a pod pilot. Try your hand at controlling powerful spaceships with a limited pod pilot license. Contact your nearest clone contractor for details."
The ability to clone jump between EVE and DUST would be a win for CCP as I see it might drive dust players into eve if they can have their eve account waiting for them after they download the client on their computer. |

If this planetside 2, which I haven't really heard of, is a SOE game then its dead on arrival.
I personally happen to be a pc gamer who owns consoles as well (because of games that don't exist on PC). I have always hated shooters though, so its unlikely I will explore dust more than to just see what it's like. |

The move for PS3 exclusively is simpy not understandable. Why should we care at all? Except for bombing them to oblivion just for fun, tears and out of boredom. New inventory: Getting better since version 1.2, but what about back and forward buttons? |

I hope DUST 514 does well and the people that enjoy FPS on consoles have a good time. I just want a way to make money from all the carnage while I am in EVE.
That's all I really care about...making more ISK off of the conflict by replacing the items of WAR. |

Bored, so guess I'll post in another DUST thread
Cerebral Wolf wrote: so i'd like to know what your thoughts are on it and why?... Thoughts? Hmmm...
Will there be a flip top on the button, or will it be double keyed? In the range of 1 to 100000 megaton, what will be the strength of the bombs? Can I air burst my bombs for maximum squishiness? Will I be able to see the console gamerz hop around like little lit matchsticks from orbit? Will there be lingering radiation that will cause console gamerz to get sick and die over time? If I laugh at the console gamerz as their flesh melts off of their bones, will they hear me? Will blood remain behind and pool up merging into rivers of oozing stinking radioactive blood? Will I be able to pick a specific console gamer to repeatedly bomb until he cries? Will I be able to retrieve his tears from the planet surface for sweet sweet mass consumption? Will I be able to take gear from dead console gamerz and sell it back to them, repeatedly? Will Console gamerz have access to buying contracts so I can scam them and make them cry? Can I just bomb console gamerz at will no matter what side they are on?
Just a few of my thoughts...
