Taking on some Debt CCP? Going public might be a good move....Imagine what you could do with a billion dollars to dump into your games? Just please promise you'll finish WiS so I can headshot some of these whiners.



"CCP Games, the Iceland-headquartered company behind the massively multiplayer online roleplaying game EVE Online, says it has raised $20 million in new funding."

I want DUST to fail.

I really hope that it doesn't. Best case scenario is piddles out after a minor period of success and CCP realises that keeping Eve within Eve would be a better idea.

Laying claim to Out of Pod Experience since 2007, plain and simple. Keep the trash out of [u]Out Of Pod Experience[/u], If it's EVE Related or deserves a Lock, it does not belong here.

if dust wouldve just been an expansion to eve where we get out and fight on planets, i would get another account and buy 50 plex.


ps3 is lame, i had one, then they got hacked, and i sold it and never looked back.



it wasnt the ps3's fault, it was sony's fault.

I guess it depends on how you define fail. I don't think it's likely to fail from a business perspective.

Let's hope they don't go forward with some fail vampire game.
