PS2 will in turn be killed by Freelancer Online (Star Citizen). That's why $medley is talking so much about sandboxes- he knows PS2 doesn't have the milkshake to bring all the boys. PS2 =! sandbox. Eve Online/DUST = sandbox. People like huge honkin' piles of sand, and no stupid spacerails.

Star Citizen doesn't have a ground component, just space and air. EvE/DUST will be doing just fine:)


Smedley said somewhere that he wanted to put up sandbox servers, where the players will be the ones to create outposts etc in groups for their group and not for a pre-created faction.

If its enough to create a good sandbox or not is up for discussion.


Smedley? You're kidding right.

Modern War Battle field 640312, I heard its awesome.

Though the concept of a PC game causing the death of a Playstation game is rediculous. I can't help but think a PS3 only release is a bad thing for any game. Silly little small handed controlers..

We can assume since Dust skilling will last a long time and PS3 wil be nothing more than a memory by next year, that Dust will eventually be rolled out across many platforms PC included so your point is moot anyway.

I see a big difference between MOH and COD and i'm not that hardcore, don't even have a basement. COD has always seemed more polished than MOH, smoother experience for me anyway.

PS2 is prettier than Dust, like first Halo was until that series got milked for all it was worth.

However, I don't foresee PS2 lasting more then a few months each time they "expand" on it (which, juding by PS1 will be once, and you have to buy it, and it will suck and break the game), then when they see that the revenue isn't worth adding features it will be left to die, like PS1, so they can start working on PS3.

Dust has the advantage that it is being made by CCP, and if the EVE track record is anything to go by, it'll start rough with a massive learning curve (even for an FPS) and they will iterate on it for years to come, adding features and polish and smoothing out problems.

Can't wait to dual box my Dust toon and EVE toon on the same machine!

You could say this about every hyped up game that gets released.

After a sub to PS for over two years and having played the Battlefield series since BF1942 launch day, while BF4 is around the corner now, DUST has nothing to fear from PS2. And just the idea that PS2 is an SOE game, and the CRAP they pulled with PS1, it'll be short lived. I'm not even wasting my time with PS2 beta, they will destroy it just like they did with PS1, SWG, EQ and most every game to carry the SOE box graphic. OP, don't let the door hit ya on the way out.

I'm in it for the money
