On the twitch feed (when they were attempting to run damage control) they asked for our feedback.
Giving your feedback on the dust boards gets your post deleted and your account banned at the moment. It has clearly become an issue of censoring dissent, a few questions that CCP needs to answer...
A few simple questions:
How long has CCP known that they were going to be scrapping dust for legion?
Is it proper that they continued to accept payment for aurum and SP boosters, while only "maybe" being able to move characters to the next iteration?
They decided to run an event this week. In the event, you got bonus SP for using a AURUM suit. Is it proper that they ran this event just days before they announced that they were scrapping the project to work on Legion, and that they weren't sure if they would be able to transfer characters across the platforms?

Dust boards are exploding. They wouldn't have done the mini twitch section which cut out half way through if they weren't. Problem is, they are deleting and banning most of the posts asking questions exactly like I have posed here... |

Dusties have essentially paid to play a beta for a game on a different console that they may or may not get a transfer to, and might not even be able to play.
Given the sad state of dust game play (I've been playing since closed beta, on the community and promises), it isn't really a stretch to say that dust is a legion beta. |

So are they actually discontinuing DUST or are they just porting it to PC under Legion? Haven't seen the feed about the changes. CCP's Motto: If it isn't broken, break it. If it is broken, ignore it. Improving NPE-á/ Dynamic New Eden |

I just wonder about what exactly.
Did CCP say they'll shut down DUST? |

Say it or not, that is what is going to happen. They aren't going to fund TWO failed shooters. I have a feeling that a lot of the resources for dust have been diverted to the legion project for a while now. Dust certainly has felt like it has been an afterthought for a while now. |

They concern us, because CCP has engaged in questionable business practices, and if they don't resolve these issues, Legion will never be given a chance by anyone that has played dust, or any of their friends, or anyone that actually enjoys FPS. |

They haven't said anything about how or if our assets will transfer over from DUST *IF* they scrap DUST for Legion. Please loosen your tinfoil hats a little, and calm down. Trust CCP to not screw themselves over. That moment when you realize the crazy lady with all the cats was right... |

PS3 is an outdated crappy system.
Dust will continue development for the next 2 years.
Legion isnt due out until next year.

Aww bless.
Don't EMO out until you get offical announcements (as in a blog or such) then emo out.
Pre emo gets you deleted.
As for purchasing stuff..please show me the game has been turned off right away? Shall I log in and see it still up and running?

When will DUST players shoot some statue? They have one, right? When weapons, technology, and economies mature faster than the leadership culture entrusted with them, disaster ensues. |

Dust 514 has been one failure and mistake after the next. They absolutely needed to rebrand it, and get off the PS3.
But if the same team is working on it, Legion will be a failure too. I wouldn't expect the pessimism expressed here to be understood by the players of the modern eve... You would have to have actually played dust for the last year to truly understand it.
It is garbage. They reintroduce the same old bugs, and balance issues with every new patch. The only reason any of the dusties play it, is the promises CCP made for it, and the community that built up around those promises.

I can't imagine why they aren't just releasing dust for pc on the same servers and then not having to worry about two projects though, but I guess they don't want to be limited by the ps3 hardware.

CCP made an aurum event right before they made this announcement, knowing full well that some of the players of dust will not be able to make the move from PS3 to PC. If that isn't a cash grab, I don't know what is.
The event gave long term SP rewards, at the cost of real money. Long term rewards that some players will never see. |

As someone watching the stream and paying attention I think they are learning from the mistakes. When weapons, technology, and economies mature faster than the leadership culture entrusted with them, disaster ensues. |

Funny how fast DUST players forget that and complain about their revenue being misspent.
At least now we know what the name was all about. DUST GÇá 5/14. |

See, I'm usually really not that guy. I, honestly, am not that guy.
I understand their frustration and their belief that DUST will be shut down, even if CCP it won't happen but it actually still might happen, although I doubt they'd do that if they say they won't.
Anyhow, I indeed right now am that guy.
DUST players have nothing. CCP giveth, CCP taketh away. It's theirs. All theirs.
I speak on behalf of everybody who agrees with me when I tell you ...
We, the PC MASTER RACE, don't really give a ****.
Though as a sign of pity friendship ... - let me repeat that this is on behalf of everybody who agrees with me - ... please take this bucket swimming pool ...

So for those that don't think that dust is going to be scrapped...
How about those dust fanfest announcments? anything really interesting that was about dust and not legion?
I know a few people that went to fanfest expecting to see something new for dust. They got Legion instead. |

I for one think it's about time , the only fallout i see is butthurt from people that paid RL cash for items on a game that was on a platform at the end of it's lifecycle.

If dust was a legion beta, they needed to be straightforward with their customers. I hope there will be no Microtransaction, Aurum events and such sh.it in Legion. Solid FPS with a deep connection to EVE. Free for EVE subs. One billion percent success!
Edit: Maybe add three new character slots for Legion Chars to EVE accounts for people that play Legion. |
