I am in the beta, though I havn't played it for some time.
I also play/played Tribes: Ascend. I can get how Planetside 2 can lack real consequence like
eve but I play it for a quick blast. Military sim/sim style FPS games like Arma 2 is what I play for
when I want a consequence fps.

Patching DUST 514 takes a long time however and I personally prefer my desktop where
I can just use a mouse and keyboard [I havn't really used a console for 10 years minus
dust 514 and my ham fisted efforts at using a controller don't help :P] and download anything
that takes my fancy from steam.

When DUST 514 comes for the PC it will be more convenient for myself [especially since I don't own a
PS3 personally and am not likely to].

Will damage mods have an influence on the amount of damage you do to dusties and their tanks and stuff?

Sorry if I missed this elsewhere, but how are you handling ISK in Corp Wallets, in terms of no ISK transfer?

edit : Fozzie said I misread, they are not talking about the next EVE expansion, but the next DUST expansion on the blog, so I got butthead for nothing. Sorry, got a terrible day.

So first information about the next expansion is about DUST ?

Seriously you missed your PR move here, you should have allowed the CSMs to talk about some things spaceships related, or posted a devblog about one before posting that.

I'm glad for you that DUST is working well, but for us it still means nothing at this point.

Really wish we had some patch notes to look at...

So if I can make a DUST guy the CEO of the corp, how can he manage the corp? We have obligations... bills to pay! ...and a few hundred mil in the corp wallet. What's to stop the DUST guy from taking the corp's ISK?

Lots of questions...

Guess we'll know soon enough. Looking forward to a "real" DUST merc. Pirate

The blog was to tell us about server integration, which is happening in a couple of days, not the next expansion.

No, the EVE players only need to be in faction warfare if they want to provide orbital support. We'll have more on that in an FAQ released later this week.


is this permanent?

With 90% certainty you'll be seeing lots of information in the time between January 10th and the open beta, so just stay tuned.

PS2 been constantly crashing on me also the number of people using 'floor' hacks have been going up. You'd think they would fix that by now.

Orbital Support? Its likely going to stay that way for FW systems. Null sec would be less rule restrictive per chances when dust 514 expands out that way in 2014.

Dust 514 is not an expansion. Chances are the next eve expansion is going to have the last of the V3 Project done. Battle-cruisers and Battleships re- done stats wise, new modules (types) as possibly iterations of the new science and industry UI we saw previewed back at fan fest. And form the looks of it, Gallente are getting new ship models across the board.

Dust 514's first expansion will be, improved corporations (currently its a corporation lite, end goal to match eve's complexity) Arena Matches, Improved FWing implimentations, more guns, more vehicles, more suits, more skills, and possibly PVE as well. The expansion afterwards new planets and conquest mode (null sec)

I hope that OB's aren't limited to FW and Sov war. If I have guys on the ground, doing whatever, I should be able to support them, regardless of the cause.

Not to mention the OB's shouldn't be tied to the performance of a team on the surface, it should be a game changer even for a team getting smoked, not another tool for a well-performing squad to continue a curb stomping. If I have ties to ships in orbit and I'm 1/10 because i A) suck B) am against some super pimped out dudes with lots of Dust-skill, I should be able to counter balance that with a strike from on-high. It might not win me the match but it should wipe out 3 squads worth of proto gear.

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

Would also reiterate but NDA ><, my previous comment concerning the issue was speculation based thus outside of it.

Well, SiSi is open for all, there even was a public masstest for OB's some time ago (although without us doing any real work)
Or you can just wait for the FAQ!

A Dust character can be a CEO of a corp with Eve characters in it, but the only roles you can set from Dust is "director" for now. You will want to have an Eve character with at least a director role to manage a corp on the Eve side.

Dust's corp wallet is restricted to a hidden division for now that is kept separate from the rest of the wallet in Eve. Money can not move between the games yet.

I would like to state there are no additional patch notes. The test server is still on the same build-ish when it launched retribution and its the same one on Sisi this very moment.
