Actually the mechanics were quite clearly revealed at the convention - I have no problem with DUST, because it doesn't affect my daily life in EVE at all.
The Expanse. Watch it!
a) So it's basically narcisstic elitism about the platform of choice? Which was exactly my sad expectation, actually, as it's pure unbridled arrogance.a) Because EVE is a PC game and releasing DUST for Console when the followers are PC is fail.a) What has the 'console' part of FPS got to do with anything?It's a console FPS. It's going to impact our ability to hold space in a PC-only game that is inhabited by people who enjoy and in most cases stay for the non-twitch combat.
b) Fair point, but AFAIK the exact mechanics of how the two games interact is yet to be revealed.... are we not perhaps talking here about replacing an abstract numbers game with something a little more concrete, anyways?
b) Eve is abstract numbers and FPSes are concrete? LOL!!
a) No no no... Why make a CONSOLE game for PC GAME? Your fans (and thus the people who KNOW about the game) are PC players. So why make it for console?a) So it's basically narcisstic elitism about the platform of choice?

b) Well - and forgive me not having played the game here - what exactly is the mechanism EVE uses for capturing / determining ownership of planets? Insofar as I'm aware, there is no visible interactive aspect of ground warfare for this - and that's what I mean by abstract numbers.
a) why not? Was there some sort of law passed I missed?a) No no no... Why make a CONSOLE game for PC GAME? Your fans (and thus the people who KNOW about the game) are PC players. So why make it for console?
b) Um... Ships blowing the s### out of each other?
EVE is PC only and proudly so. Your playerbase is full of console-haters. What do you think is the problem here?a) What has the 'console' part of FPS got to do with anything?

a) Probably because there's not as much financial benefit in it, I'd garner. which is, IMO, a perfectly legit reason. I think if people are console-haters... well, I don't think their immaturity should play into the decisions made by what is after all a business (and, besides which, surely the success of Dust would only bolster CCPs ability to support and expand Eve?)a) I don't see the logic behind it. Why, if all your fans are on PC, why not make it for PC as well?
b) You said abstract numbers. I said not abstract numbers.
Hammer: You never even see me in game. Since when is having a debate annoying?
lol How quickly you forget. I booted you from the sgam channel for acting like a 12 year old, you quickly posted here because you couldn't figure out how to get back in and said we'd banned you.Hammer: You never even see me in game. Since when is having a debate annoying?
FYI;LOL is an abbreviation and thus should be in caps. I never found out who booted but thanks for telling. I'd never been booted so I didn't know the mechanics. I never "cried" about PL, if you think that's crying you're clearly just looking for something to say. You've not seen crying yet. I seem to recall you and hippo teasing in good humor, apparently I was wrong. My sig... Yeah, I never actually said that. It's simply how I do things.
Anythnig else to complain about, please feel free to make a thread, I'd hate to ruin hunter's thread because of one guy with a sore behind.
