I really don't want to have to try to find it to get a quote as the search system for the forums and website completely suck but I'm a little confused, if they aren't planning on continuing a game in favor of a better iteration on a different platform then why the continued development cycles on new features for it? There are three Devs working on DUST, and they are doing amazing things.
No one knows what the rest of the people in the Shanghai Office are doing. They may have taken the 3 hour tour and ended up stuck on a deserted island for all I know. So anything said about the life or death of Legion would be pier speculation at this point.
What it appears is happening is that DUST is finally paying for its own development, so now we are getting nice things. I would assume that the R&D budget is still going into Legion, but again that is just speculation.
I will say though that DUST did not really come alive until it was proclaimed to be dead, so maybe saying the Legion is dead is not a bad thing. |

Actually they said that they were moving development to PC and that DUST wouldnt receive any major updates for the foreseeable future... Well the foreseeable future turned out to be almost a year and now there is progress. Personally i think now we will continue to see some development in DUST what is a mystery however is what is happening to project legion. At some point in the next few years a product will be needed to replace DUST on either the PC or PS4 or both. I would love to see Legion become part of EVE, as in part of the client and seemless like expanding the scope of the room that is walking in stations. So you land at a staging ground on a planet and pop out of your ship in a drop suit and hunt/join a battle. They said that there would be no major DUST or Legion announcement at Fan Fest...
... but what you are describing would be an EVE announcement.
I have raised that possibility before. I consider it a long shot. A very long shot. But I would laugh my ass off if it happened. |

Cat Merc, is that you?
Cat Troll basically nailed it. His brief history of DUST is spot on. |
