You remember that game we've been talking about adding to the EVE Universe for a while? DUST 514? Yeah, that's coming to Tranquility REAL SOON and to tell you all about when and how we'll start merging the two games, here's CCP Nullarbor with a new dev blog hot off the press.

Nullarbor needs to post more dev blogs, especially with the insane amount of work he puts in. :D

Awesome!

And as for reset of characters, that does mean wipe of stats right, not the names etc? Or completely names are up for grabs?

Well, for starters, you will begin to see unfamiliar faces in local. They may look a little funny and talk about bizarre concepts such as tanks, grenades and “running around” but I promise they are as friendly as New Eden citizens can be and want to learn everything they can about this world you now both share.

I thought consoles didn't have keyboards?

Anyway, thanks for the heads up - we'll be in the smoke-filled scheming room thinking of ways to steal their stuff Lol

How will Dust 514 players work with the API?

will they share the same api's as eve players, making it easier to add them to current mumble/ts api registrations?

will they be able to take part of these faction warfare 'missions' if they join corps that do not have faction standings?

OMG when can i get a pic here

So... anybody can shoot dust bunnies or only FW players? I understand they will fight as a part of FW but if I happen to be in FW system and accidentally have tactical ammo loaded... Can I? Twisted

If they have an EVE CEO yes they can, but alliances have no visibility in DUST as of yet.

Ugh. Finding ships sitting at districts is going to be a hassle.

Do the Caldari DUST guys know what the warzone looks like yet?

e: congratulations, by the way. hope the transfer goes well

Districts only popup on the overview if someone is at them. So it's actually really easy.

On another note, \o/ DUST 514.

I hope it's not just going to be PS3 that get's a EVE MMOFPS. A PC-game in the same mold, or a "ground/station combat element" in EVE, (was a lot of talking about this a few years back).

I enjoy EVE a lot, but some twitch-mechanic gameplay in-between the ship to ship action, or mining/hauling, would be fun.
