CCP asked for feedback on Dust 514 and Eve and the integration process. While it is probably industry standard to not put up forums for a game that has not publicly released yet, it seems that since Dust 514 is not a standard game it needs a few different practices. Maybe I am just displaying my lack of knowledge and they are just not in an obvious place on the internet. I would like to see the discussions that are going on about the Dust 514 integration. Since it is in beta and open beta is around the corner are we going to see the Dust forums open in April?

An example of the types of discussions that I would like to see is regarding corporate roles, formation and other things that exist in eve and will impact Dust and vice versa. Should people who want to form dust corps form them in eve now to reserve names. Can I extort a corp by reserving the obvious names of existing corps (not actually my style of play, but it's going to happen). There are people laying the groundwork for Dust corporations now and the discussion should be out in the open and transparent.

On a related note, is there going to be an equivalent body to the CSM? Maybe the Council of Planetary Management? Or is CCP assuming that a bunch of eve players are going to look out for the dust mercs out of the kindness of their hearts. We all saw how much The Mittani loves us. If they get this going from the beginning it might make the communication better.

Thoughts?

For now...you are in them. I am sure when DUST releases they will have forums up specific to DUST.

Bounties for all! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2279821#post2279821

I'm expecting (and kind of hopin) once beta begins testers get their own private forums.

There are unoffical forums already up though, with some discussion/recruitment going on

Here their not official but they do exist outside eve gate.

Those who wish to end War wish to end what it means to be human. Those who advocate War do not know its power. Yet Those who learn from War will be remembered for all time.

Thanks for reminding me about Dust.org. They have some good stuff. But they are not CCP sponsored. I would hope that CCP is reading their stuff but I doubt they would ever officially sanction anything there. I was hoping that they would be attempting to build the community communications that they are trying to get in eve from the very beginning of dust.
