We all remember dust-514 (peace and blessings be upon it), why is it not possible for CCP to tweak it so that we could make planetary interactions more interesting by resurrecting the dust platform and adapt it so eve players can transition from one server to the next by 'landing' (simulated), thereby now able to do activity planet side.


PI factory can now be interactive

Missions planet side (search and rescue), of NPC's, etc.

I have absolutely no clue if any compatibility issue exists that make some kind of additional features impossible but it would be something to actually have the world of dust back only as part of the environment of eve as playable part so there's more content to interact with leading to more things do doo when other things become less interesting, there's got to be a way to make it happen.

It was written for the PS3 CellOS. There would be issues and potential licensing terms that CCP agreed to when making it for the PS3. If it was that easy it would be on Steam right now generating massive plex sales. That and Resurrection of games requires a young priest and an old priest...to be ritually sacrificed which is generally frowned on in most Countries.

It's not safe out here. It's wondrous, with treasures to satiate desires both subtle and gross. But it's not for the timid.

Humm, too bad could have been fun hunting NPC animals to get long limb roe and other products.

And this is why Dust being PS3 exclusive was a bad idea. I believe CCP were told this.

I think dust was the Viking funeral of the world of darkness code they spent time on. They decoupt their isk and short sold it.

Valkyrie is going the same way, XBOX One X is getting hyped, that means Sony needs a PS5 on the market; Bye-bye, Valkyrie.

as for gaming planetside id like to see a npc populations on planets that have been colonized in null sec, these colonys could be respective of indutrial development on that planet each indy operation planetside would generate a npc workforce, this workforce would require trade goods to survive and thus a new market for trade goods imported from hi sec..

Lol you know no one's gonna buy Xbox right? Ps4 ran away with the gen already. Xbox is a Netflix box with no exclusives like 2-3 years post launch.
