Pretty **** move..... But not the first.
People have a responsibility for themselves not to get ripped off my the same company continuously.

I was stung in Dust from the Beta and vowed never to spend another penny on the game, but I did, lesson learnt.

Fixed that for you.


Going by the numbers of folk playing DUST, very, very few people care about the game.

However, having said that, a version of it on the pc is a brave move to raise the dead on the part of CCP.


pretty sure dust is dead because it's not on the PC, that was pretty much it's biggest criticism since it's announcement. it's sensible to bring it to the pc, not brave.

Legion is not a sequal for dust. Its the end of the PS3 game and just a polished new variant which in the end plays exactly the same. If CCP woulda had sayd that this would be on PS4 and where you could keep your Dust514 char (because on PSN you can link your PS3 account) that would had made the Dust players much happier.

The guys who play on PS3 dont want to play on a PC with mouse and keyboard, they just want to relax on the couch and start playing when they feel like it. PC gamers are just way too hardcore in that aspect. Just look at our Eve community: you got those unworthy of existance living creatures who are enjoying to see others suffer (cough eroitca1 cough...). CCP should have stated their intentions before fanfest and not try to milk money from the players just to screw them over. Even a 5 year old could probs come up with a better PR then the person behind that desaster.

Seriously first they state some numbers about clones killed and ISK destroyed with a tribute vid from a DUST514 player and then they show what they are really working on, after that they promptly end the Keynote for Dust514. This is even false advertising for the programm for the fanfest. Last time i looked there was no note of a "EVE: Legion keynote". If i would be a dust player who went to the fanfest to learn more about the eve-dust connection i would probs demand my money back for the fanfest ticket.

You must be that kind of guy that demands his money back in the cinema if the movie was bad.

Bad comparison! If the Movie is called "Lego the Movie" and everything is about Playmobil you would be pissed, wouldnt you?

I just hope CCP invites people for the Alpha/Beta whatever it's called these days who have the Mystery code entered to their account =^_^=.

Hmm ive heard that the Devs will try to move the Dust toons onto Legion. Well thats competition destroyed for eve players. if only 100 of the top Dust players will move to Legion then they wil havel a head start of like 50million SP+ (thats if Legion would start today). And we all know that FPS players only play with their lvl of skill. Gonna be interesting to see how a 0SP player (who's mainly a pilot) will hold up against Dust vets.

This will most certainly be problematic cause i still assume that Legion will just be a polished Dust514. And that means the Dust players know how everything work before every 1 else. I say only 2 words: "proto stomping".

most of them are console fps players, for the first 6-8 months of beta we will roflstomp them by virtue of having used a keyboard & mouse for longer, sp will not matter in the slightest as itl take them ages to build the muscle memory Cool

Sorry, for a moment there I thought you were talking about how some new players feel when they start in Eve and see all the vets with X skill points and knowledge of how the game works.

They're not bringing DUST to PC. They're creating an entirely new game from scratch with the same promises made for DUST. If you think they'll deliver on those promises any better than they did for DUST then you're the kind of gullible shill CCP is going for.

Relax man, people say pretty the same thing about Eve and it's community of 10 year old vets etc. People who don't know anything about the game often post that it's too hard to start due to all of the uber players. Game mechanics take care of this for us, I'm sure the devs can work something out.

i'm aware hence i said "a version".

it probably will be terrible; but it's a kind of terrible i'd actually be willing to try. if i don't have to pay in order to play it, then there's literally no reason not to try it and find out what it's like.
