Dear CCP/ Shanghai Team.

We've waited for this day for almost 2 years now. "Dust is coming to PC" YAAAAY!
Congratulations, the Hype is real. (At least for me.)
There are people though, that think a) they've just been screwed out of a lot of commitement/money because it's closing on PS3 (imo, it was foreseeable and the PS3 dead anyways [and who the hell plays shooters on a console...])

Now is YOUR moment, CCP. Do. this. right. Dust 514 needs to make an Impact! It needs to NOT die!

If that means, that it's not going to be F2P, that's fine with me. You need 2+ years of development time? Go ahead. You need player input on this? The whole community is ready to stick their opinon of this game wherever you want and don't want to have it.

This leaves us here. In this Forum. Where you interact with your playerbase. Please listen to us. I want this game to work. An actual EVE FPS! I've dreamed of this from day 1 that I played EVE-O.
But for this to work, it needs to be better than it was on PS3. You already announced, that this was going to be a different game. Make the changes good. Make the game have an impact on EVE. Citadels? I say playground for Capsuleers and Mercenaries alike. Capture Planets for Alliances, noone else can do PI there, TAKE RISKS! (or whatever else crazy stuff the community can come up with... I'm sure there are thousands of ideas going to swarm this forum soon (not tm))
You started the new dev cycle-model with giving us the impression, that our feedback matters, so please make this feedback matter!

Give us the Dust that we deserve, that we're going to love, that drives EVE forward! That is what we want, this is what EVE needs.

Please do this right!

Fly safe \o

This is not a comment to the news, this is an opinon piece on the fact, which justifies [imo] a new thread for people to share their thoughts on and post ideas about what could/should happen with Dust on PC

I hope they give it a snappy name like Dust: Too! or God Emperor of Dust, or maybe Dust 80085.

CCP has shown no evidence that they can develop a quality game so I highly doubt it they will with Legion.

I look forward to hackers destroying the game within the first month and watching the population fall to less than its PS3 numbers.

I'm putting my prediction in now, this will be phased out and discarded before it gets released.

Actually CCP interact with their playerbase more on reddit I believe.

I really, really wish that they'll take time and build something persistant and not round based.

Just imagine some kind of Arma/Planetside in the EvE universe, where you can get unexpected PvP on huge maps, where you can conquer and hold/build stuff... It would be much logical to link something of this flavor with EvE ( but much harder to produce ofc).


I'm a bit worried by CCP Shangai. IDK if these guys have the same "hardcore gaming " habits that occidentals people have. It's pretty clear to me that PC gamers doesn't need another regular arena FPS shooter, but something with way more depth and community based. Just watch how many EvE players play Arma/Rust/Dayz/Ark/.... That's the kind of games they need !

The only advice I'd give is providing high tickrate options and servers, if they want the game to be taken seriously.

You may be excited, but many of my Dust corp mates can't afford a PC. It gave those less fortunate an opportunity to be involved in a community and friendships. As a Dust CEO and Eve player, I can tell you, that yesterday, after the announcement, I heard grown men cry and admit a piece of their heart had been ripped out. 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.

That's sad mate :( Don't worry, Rust 415 will be even better, and your mates will have plenty of time to save 600$ for it =)
