Dust 514: F2P PS3 FPS -Connected to EVE Online -Closed Beta -Calling PS3 Players

[hgpucom]

You ooz of console fanboy. Don't get me wrong I love both but statistically the rates for PC gamers in the market have surpassed console gaming which is pretty much a horse with one leg.

I like both equally. And it did surpass them but not anymore. Look how much more profit developers make from selling FPSs to consoles. It has nothing to do with being a "fanboy" it's purely statistics.

It's already f2p on the PS3 so there should be no problem porting it to pc.

Actually nevermind, you are right. I'm thinking more about the versatility of the separate systems.

No one would play it. Trust me, being apart of both communities of DUST and EVE, players do NOT get along with each other. Going from EVE Online to DUST 514 dramatically reduces your IQ just by talking to players. Harm, you must agree with me that MOST console players act fairly handicapped and irrational and think every PC gamer is a stuck up smart-ass where as MOST PC gamers tend to have the impression that console players are just a bunch of ignorant starfishs. CCP wants to have a completely new social environment to play their games. They want to try and attract new crowds.

people would play it, you can't honestly say "no one" would play it lol

Not as many who would play it on the PS3 which is why CCP chose PS3 instead. Plus, If Microsoft accepted as well, they would have integrated both consoles onto the same servers (Some how...don't ask me lol that's just what they said) and thus made twice the profit.

enough would play it to justify having it on pc. making it a console game was a giant "forget you" to all eve players

In a way, yes but EVE players don't like FPSs since they are generally an older generation of people and TBH my corporation mates (In EVE) tell me they can't wait to pay stuff-head players to win planets for them. We all get shot and raped while they stay happy in space.

I have all night and I can back my quotes up. :)

"Naturally, this results in many a Flame War on the web, not to mention high levels of Fan Dumb. To PC gamers, console gamers are either twelve year olds screaming obscenities into the microphone or a bunch of skill-less, obnoxious, and unintelligent frat boy dirty peasants, who couldn't even type their own name into a computer, both of which completely unwilling to play any game not Rated M for Money. According to console gamers, PC gamers are elitist, stuck-up geeks with no life that consider themselves the glorious master race and who live in their mom's basement. Unfortunately, magazines only reinforce these stereotypes, making gamers who play both or even exclusively one to yell "Stop Being Stereotypical" every time they read the next issue of their gaming magazines." -tvtropes.org

read the quote i pasted from the page. Eve is made for PC gamers. DUST is for Console players. This tells the stereotypical interaction between the two groups.

and what, you're providing it as evidence to say that eve players don't like fps games? it's literally no more legitimate than providing anecdotal evidence - it's an opinion piece lol

you don't know if eve players on the whole do or don't like FPS games, you're kidding yourself to think you do

Like i said a whole thread page before, I actually ask everyone i talk to on both games. Every time i ask someone whether they like the other platforms it always comes back in negativity. I never said 100% of players in either game had to dislike one another but majority. If I did a survey on both games would that satisfy you?

[Böltster]

you've provided both anecdotal evidence and an opinion piece to back up your point, so i can safely assume you don't know how to conduct a legitimate survey lol

so don't bother, we're at an impasse.
