So the more I see this.

The more I get convinced that Dust 514 is going to be intergrated into and form part of Faction warfare (at least at the point of initial release).

Anybody able to shed light on this? Any thoughts? Personally I think it would be brilliant if this was the case.

I agree, it does seem likely that the "Quickmatch" type games will be set in Faction Warfare, with sov battles being organized by players.

I vaguely recall seeing something along the lines of FW being Dust's equivalent of missioning.

I remember them mentioning that "bombardment" was first going to be integrated from FW, the broadened out to nullsec/other lowsec.

I also remember them saying the "missioning" for Dust514 is going to be a horde-style gameplay where waves and waves of rogue drones come at the players.

And I think there's also going to be some form of district warfare in hisec given as "contracts" from NPC corps, which is probably part of that FW thing as well, all along the border zones. This could be sort-of missiony, except that its PVP and not PVE.

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

Quickmatches will be in highsec, FW/nullsec is more clanwar type games.
