Found this snippet on Comdr Wang's tweet
Quote:@CCP_CmdrWang Hey I'm wondering if you'll be able to use mercenaries to fight over player-run outposts. Thanks! Excited about #Dust514

Quote:@ruzihm Yes, that is an integral part of DUST514.

Wondering if he thought the player was referring to POCOs instead of outposts. I don't always post on the forums, but when I do, I post with my main. |

Are you sure it refers to player run outpost in EVE and not something else? All I've read indicates DUST is about planetary combat only, so I'm a bit sceptical and your source isn't exactly specific about what it refers to. |

Witty comments should be posted over there somewhere --------------->
The player-run outposts he's referring to are planetary outposts.. We would have heard a major announcement if that was one of the plans for DUST-EVE integration. |

If it happens why would we protest? Anything that removes the grind from Sov should be an improvement and think of all the screams of frustrated rage when stations can be destroyed and we fry those Dust mercs with their target. |

I think you mixed it into Dust's own outposts. |

If dust 'groups' can take a majority of planets in a system how could someone else claim SOV? Because of moons?
Dust probably isn't that complex though, it's on a console after all.
On a related note, are they going to have automatic squading? |

I'm actually looking forward to DUST since I have a mostly useless PS3 gathering... dust (lol). This would be pretty cool but what would be even cooler as an EVE player is if we could blow up structures the mercs are fighting in...

I feel confident speculating that Dust devs dont much at all about EVE and could easily be confused as to what an "out post" is. Wherever You Went - Here You Are |

How could they take over outposts that orbit a planet while on the ground? Should use some common sense before putting on your tinfoil hat. If anything it will have to do with DUST outposts on the planets or something to do with PI. |

Am I the only one who sees imminent griefing using orbital strikes from EVE players who will be pissed if Dust gets released as a PS3 exclusive with micro-transactions?
Just so you know, I'll probably abuse the hell out it. |

If they do were going grief the s--t out of the Dust players and they know it. Wherever You Went - Here You Are |

Chat channels for Dust 514 (both voice and text) are cross platform. You can log into them from either your console or your PC, so that EvE and Dust players can coordinate their efforts in real time. This is working fine in all the testing that's currently underway and been documented by third party media that have gotten a sneak peak.
And yes, outposts refer to planetary outposts - currently all the nullsec sov system relies on space structures, once Dust is released Alliances forced to obtain planet-based equivalents. Each game will rely on the other - alliances won't have a choice but to pay for or recruit mercernaries if they want to maintain their hold on a region. |

what might be interesting is a mechanic by which the attacking force has to bring in blank clones and guns and semi dock at the station with a freighter. Then defend the freighter while takeing the station. The station defenders have a store of clones and guns, but if they run out the attackers win. If the defenders suicide in to kill the freighter the attackers loose. Would be an interesting mechanic, especially if it involved PI materials and make a ground war on planets worthwhile.

Can you please show us the reference? Who and where is that sneak peak? |

Keep in mind that DUST will run from the same server as EVE. Revenge should not stop at the ship!
It's not so much a mission statement,-áit's more like a family motto. |

You know, maybe if Dust people can blow the outpost ITS A GOOD IDEA. We dont even know how Dust people will deploy in planets, its not that they have a tele-transporter in every fcking planet, apart that they need to bring the resources to the planet to fight. Right? |

From my understanding DUST WILL NOT be held on the same servers as Eve it will only have a link between the two. However the servers will be ran and operated by CCP personally.
Edit: Granted I could be wrong. |

Dust 514 runs off Tranquility. They are the same server, there is no separation other than the client used to access the server and the device used to run the client. |

Here are some good Dust 514 preview articles - they contain references to the cross platform comms, confirm that Dust 514 is run on Tranquility simultaneously with EvE, and have reactions from press members who have actually seen the game played in front of them to confirm it is coming along as intended.

Hello everyone,
I just wanted to jump in here and clarify that Dust 514 has its own player-run structures called Outposts, which CCP_CmdrWang is referring to in that very short tweet. Hope this clears up any speculation at this point

Actually while they don't have teleporters, they basically have insane amounts of jump clones.
So, the Dust players can hang around in their base and clonejump to battlefields halfway across the universe instantly. Even if EVE players need to ferry around containers full of clones and their reactivation units in order to stage a ground attack, the Dust merceneries will not be wasting two hours looking outside a ship's window for it to reach its destination. Do not take me for some conjurer of cheap tricks. |

I for one hope it actually matters, I have a slew of RL friends with COD k/d stats over 1.7, and I can't wait for them to steal your stuff and blow up your spaceships with ground-to-space cannons. Do not take me for some conjurer of cheap tricks. |

Why would they fight over outposts? EVE barely does that now. You'll probably get kicked out of the null sec peace accord currently in place. Oh, is that just going to be in high sec too? |
