The writing is on the wall: FPS to space sim to everything in between, all-in-one type games are the new hotness. I can appreciate the EVE universe's effort to meet the new standard, and I understand why it's being done in a modular fashion. My hope is the transition between them is one day complete and seamless.

Now. What also comes to mind are the efforts that have been made in the past to bring avatar gameplay into EVE. Not just the stuff in stations, but also the dismounted exploration prototype, and the planetside flight.

The signs have been there. Had those ideas matured, EVE would have been at the forefront of this... trend.

I trust the motivations and commitment to modernizing the EVE universe are strong. I don't have any specific requests for their implementation because right now I'm just happy to see things moving in the right, general direction.

Help, I can't download EVE

Good luck. Too you long enough to realise that this was actually the way forward... or wherever it ends up going.

Would the port of Dust have any interaction with the Eve universe at all?

If Eve shut down......just think for a moment how you would feel. Not only would u lose a lot of friendships, but all the isk and aurum, all your skill points, all your equipment and ships. It would leave an irreplaceable hole in your life. TY for listening...I have to go and try to fix the hole in my heart now.


Completely understandable. But if you think about it, it should have been clear from the beginning: The PS3 is a decade old non-upgradeable system. A company won't maintain a game on ancient hardware forever, and the hardware was already ancient when Dust was released.

I was wondering about the equipment and mods we can buy, trade and create in EvE that was for Dust but never happened. will they have anything to do with the new game and could we trade with the new mercs?

I know many of our words will seem harsh and devoid of feeling, believe none of them, i was at fanfest and seen the reaction to what DUST could be, there was very loud cheering, lot's of excitement, I'm not gonna blow smoke up your assets Roll not many where happy it was going to be on a console, many of us asked about PS4 support and how that was going to happen because we knew as soon as the PS4 hit the markets there was a good chance the game would die. many thought it would see it's day on the playstation network, last for a couple of years and then be ported to PC, i guess we where bang on, all of us sitting having a few drinks Roll and a good chat about DUST about 5 hours after the DUST presentation. yes,, that very day many called it.

keep your people together, find a way to keep your friendships alive, i feel your pain and please tell your corpmates I'm sorry for their lose. games end man, but feck letting your friensships end because DUST has reached it's end, all we can do is hope they'll make DUST part II real soon. you're not alone and neither are your guys, Broadcast 4 Reps if they're needed. o7

I think it will have issues like every CCP game they released, Just dont expect a rainbow unicorn of the game develpment. And if it will be rainbow unicorn, it will probably fart sulphurously and be ugly as hell. You should know it by now.

Eve will survive the Singularity, fifty odd years from now. And it will thrive. It will become Real, like the velveteen rabbit.

I hope this game is more sandbox-y than the usual FPS.
