This is the first we've seen of Dust 514 in EVE lore in quite a while.



Not sure if I should raise an eyebrow or simply be offended that they would even hint towards this.

Very curious as to their actual intentions right now. If they just want to give a nod towards it in the lore that's cool I guess but these videos are rarely used for such reasons. They are almost always directly or indirectly promoting new content.

Yeah, that seems to have been why they started doing them in the first place. I like that it makes New Eden seem a bit more real. Now if only they could use their "Download on Demand" system to allow those to be loaded into the EVE Client and played in your Captain's Quarters...

Back on topic, that could either mean that there will be a Dust side to Operation Frostline, or that they're possibly getting ready for an announcement of where the game is going next.

My money is on the former, but the latter would obviously be a lot cooler.

Rattati Senpai noticed us! See you in the next FPS!

This is the state of their community. Devs come on now a little less non disclosure agreement!

1st person shooter on a past generation console. How many FPS for the PS3 aren't dying right now?

Playstation network has already suspended services in New Zealand. It's just stunning that this community isn't driven away from its playerbase much like the htfu additude is here but from the company that produces it. This makes payday's microtransations look small compared to their plight.

Wow, kind of the beginning of the end for the PS3 as a whole, then.

In other news, we recently discovered these uploaded to CCP Patriot's art portfolio, but they were almost immediately taken down.

These were all recent uploads, and the description next to some of them mentioned Unreal Engine 4.

Now I normally wouldn't be one to immediately jump to conclusions, but the speed with which these were removed and the dates they were added suggest to me that the public upload was accidentally and quickly corrected.

Forgot to comment on this one at the time, but on the 25th of November CCP again mentioned Arkombine, a mercenary corporation composed of disillusioned clone soldiers.

Quote:
In related news, reports emerging from the ongoing negotiations between Upwell Consortium and Ducia Foundry suggest that the notorious Arkombine mercenary group has been retained by the partnership for unspecified security tasks. Responding to questions on these reports, Mordu's Legion officials pointed out that they have a considerable ongoing commitment of Legion troops on Caldari Prime and indicated that any contracts with additional private military companies would assist with force flexibility on other tasks. Pressed as to Caldari Prime operations, Mordu's Legion confirmed that under no circumstances would Arkombine mercenaries be deployed for security duties on the planet.


So now we've had Arkombine mentioned in a Scope News report, and in the in-game World News. While part of me would discount this as a minor acknowledgement on the part of CCP that we still exist, I can't help but think that Arkombine staying in the public eye is more than that.
