Say what ain't so? The article quotes CCP as saying almost nothing.
The author had nothing concrete to report, but he had a deadline to write something, so he wrote that he couldn't confirm anything.
Guess what that means.... Nothing.
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all. |

Hm... do I smell another potential exclusive contract with SONY there? For their new, 1000 $ VR headset mayhaps? ...because, you know, greed?

Well, CCP has said and done weird things in the past... but calling "huh, maybe, perhaps" to PC+OR for Valkyrie is plain bemusing to watch. Meanwhile they make their minds up, I'm gonna grab some popcorn; this may be the biggest WTF in CCP history... The Greater Fool Bar is now open for business, 24/7. Come and have drinks and fun somewhere between RL and New Eden! |

Yaaay, EVE-VR is ruined... maybe.
Honestly, I do not think I'd play it if it were a console exclusive title. Stupidity should be a bannable offense.

It would be odd to not be for the PC. Not PC only? Perhaps but not PC? ...
They've announced that Valkyrie will utilize the Oculus Rift - OR has stated that it will be setup for the PC and mobile technologies -- consoles far down their priority list. Now if it works with mobile tech, that may be an interesting "platform" for a game but not the PC when that's where they'll build it? ...
You also have "market metrics information" to look at.
The highest crowd-source funded game in history is Star Citizens - a space fighter sim, crowd sourced to over $24 million so far and accelerating demand and acceptance as they begin to show deliverables.
The demand for a quality PC based space sim game is demonstrably there so not selling into what appears to be a "refreshed" growth market area... I don't think that would be a smart decision.
Little competition, solid background with PC based MMO success... Leveraging that for PC based sales wouldn't be difficult but console based? CCP doesn't have a solid strong background there but they do have one for PC based games.
It wouldn't necessarily be limited to the PC but not doing it would seem a bit silly and self-defeating. |

It must be on PC, because the whole idea behind it is competition. Valkyrie suddenly emerged out of the blue in direct competition to SC. |

Calling it right now, if it's not on PC, it's dead in the water.
Regardless of which console (yech, I said the c word) it ends up on. PS3? Outdated, no one will use it. PS4? Then to play that and DUST and EVE I need 3 separate machines, too much hassle.

That may have been the original idea... but an arcade style PvP shooter with no connection to the greater universe of EVE would have and never will be any competition to the fully fledged scifie sim SC is going to be.
So, it might as well come out as a PS4 exclusive. "ginger forum goddess, space gypsy and stone nibbler extraordinaire!" Shalua Rui - CEO and founder of Rui Freelance Mining (RFLM)

Wouldn't worry about the whole thing. There aren't that many platforms available that the game would fit on exclusively. The part about PC/OR doesn't worry me either: It's just so they're on the same side. If they say the game will be an "OR launch title" and they release the game on day X, everyone will expect the OR would be ready by then as well. Looking for more thoughts? Follow me on Twitter. |

Maybe PS4 timed exclusive... for Xmas 2014...
They can negotiate it so Sony gives them big money and essentially covers their development expenses. i mean, they can do good business out of it.
Yet in the process they will infuriate the people paying their bills. And they would infuriate a lot. The Greater Fool Bar is now open for business, 24/7. Come and have drinks and fun somewhere between RL and New Eden! |

Yes, I'm going to play it. Or try to, unless they waste their time and put it on a console like they did with DUST.

It's for the Oculus Rift... which is for PC and mobile apparently.
Guess what? That means console isn't even in consideration. Where I am. |

And, one could conclude that MS is or will be attempting to do the same.
Oculus goofed up, imo, by revealing before the next gen console release. If they had posted it after, they'd have given the respective companies a lot to worry about to try and fit them backwards compatible with their consoles. Not posting on my main, and loving it.-á Because free speech.-á |

They would be idiots to design a game for a piece of kit (The Rift) which is only intended for initial release on PC, for any other platform than the PC. "In the age of information, ignorance is a choice." |

Whatever. If CCP wants to **** up Valkyrie like they did Dust, then it let it fail. I'll have plenty of other Rift space games with equal or better (Rebirth) graphics to play. |

In the real world people are not allowed to confirm anything until the marketing department rubberstamps it.
this article is a load of hot air and nothing. obviously it will release on PC because OR is not being developped for any other platform right now, but until the marketing blurb goes out nothing will be confirmed -- this is a standard industry practice. |

I hope they have learned from the faliure of DUST.
The fans of CCP play their games on computers. Even though I plan on buying a PS4, I will be bummed out if VAL doesnt come out on the PC.
The situation now: I have a PS3, but playing FPS games with a gamepad is like shaving with a rock. Thus I do not play DUST.
Valkyire will be more suited for the gamepad, but the core audience is still on PC. So even though it doesnt have to be a PC excusive. It sure as hell needs to be there.

I wouldn't want to admit that its being produced by EA and coming out for the Xbone exclusively either.
