E3 2011: PS3 'more open' than Xbox 360 to DUST 514 tech

If by "a looker" you mean grey and generic then I wholeheartedly agree.

Looks like MAG in a futuristic setting to me and MAG was horrible (and I bought MAG twice so I've earnt the right to slag it off.)

More 'open' systems tend to get hacked easier .....

Just saying ...

It's done deal sleep with your dirty whore , may your sale be less than that DC crap they have . lets see how great it is when hackers knock PSN on it's ass again then we will see how much you like open their tech is to yours .

Interesting, so we could see similar functionality to what Valve brought with Steam.

Sony may or not have the vision but even a couple of weeks ago CCP were telling everyone that it was Multi-format.

After working on it for for 5 years you'd think they'd have realised long before now, that a 360 version might be 'tricky'.

There is some serious damage control being attempted on the Eve forums at the moment and it's not working.

There are a lot of ticked off capsuleer's I can tell you.

Must admit thought this was using unreal tech for visuals and the PS3 used to not be the best for Unreal tech (I know the article is going more into server/ID stuff). Also as noted above all the Eve players I know thought it was to be multi-plat until announced otherwise. Not a bother for me obviously but I bet there are some p**sed off people out there but hey ho.

DUST has been in development for ages but i'm suprised its PS3 only. I expected download only as CCP have attempted several physical releases of eve with really poor sales (mainly via lack of marketing) I'll be getting it simply cos i play EVe online. it looks like a grey Battlefield 2142/Halo/M.A.G. Thankfully teh majority of Eve players i know have PS3's anyway so i should have a good userbase to play online with. Its an interesting combination, Since Activision are bum buddies with Microsoft then maybe there could be something similar on 360 with WoW

I'd rather not have such stuff on the Xbox 360 to be honest with you, I mean okay it did sound really nice and its cross-platform idea was a really nice concept.
But if it means having to use alternate identity, logins, servers other then Microsoft's -- No thanks.

Ill stick to secure, -- the 360 is open. But it isnt open to silly.

Meh, that game looks like its been done before. A sci-fi futuristic shooter is really unoriginal and the game itself looked quite dull.

Bet you'd think different if it was an Xbox exclusive.

Nope, it looks just as generic and dull as Halo was.

I'm guessing i'm now a Xbox fanboy because I say negative things about a Sony related product.Ahh the wonder of the internet. I would love to get my hands on Uncharted and a couple of other exclusives on the PS3 but I got my Xbox first( A lot cheaper than the PS3 at the time) and I don't really see the appeal in buying another console just to play a few more games. I dont go round spouting 'sony sux lolz' so explain how I am a fanboy Voodoo?

I actually thought it looked quite cool...

Padua on 8 Jun '11 said:

Me too - thought it looked fantastic. I was really happy to hear it was coming to the PS3. I am not a fan of exclusivity deals though - but whatever. Really interested with the hook up to EVE and how they can influence each other. Sounds smarter than MAG's Shadow war.

Oh and MAG is one of my all time favourate games. I love the 256 player action.
I bought it twice too (disk cracked after logging 800+ game hours on it)

You've just judged a game you know nothing about on a system you don't own from a few minutes of video coverage. The wonders if the internet indeed.

gmcb007 on 8 Jun '11 said:

Ahh yes I don't own the system so I don't have the right to say anything about it and if it's negative then it's fanboyism.

Ohh, have you ever heard of 'first impressions'?

This game could be brillant but my first impressions is that it looks dull and generic as I believe that the futuristic si-fi shooter setting is quite unoriginal.

There? Does that sound better for you my lord?

After working on it for for 5 years you'd think they'd have realised long before now, that a 360 version might be 'tricky'.

I would doubt that the problem is a technical one on the 360 - more a question of Microsoft's policies for networked game play.

CCP want all Dust players to be playing in the same 'universe', which would have to be the case if they are going to the link the game to Eve Online. This would mean having PS3 players and Xbox players both playing in the same game, which I would suspect is something that Microsoft does not want. Microsoft want all games to have a single standard process for managing friend lists and the like, which would make it impossible to run Dust since you'd more than likely end up with PS3 players in the same Corp as you (Xbox players having PS3 players on their friend list...)
Likewise, I would suspect that CCP will also end up with the facility to link your Eve Online and Dust accounts at some point - again I'd suspect MS would not want this.

They'll have been trying to get MS to allow what they want but it's going to take a hell of a lot of work to get Microsoft to allow them to operate outside the walled garden that is Xbox Live. So they have probably given up for the time being.

As much as 360 is capable of carrying MMO-themed games, like a final fantasy, or a DUST 514. They wont allow it d ue to the policys set with Xbox Live and cross-platform stuff from 360>PC -- they did it with Shadowrun on a much smaller level, but that was all handled by Microsoft, allowing an outside party to do such stuff is just a no-go.

They have Tranquil s in Dragon Age, and tbh my mate who plays Eve online has become one

alan666 on 8 Jun '11 said:

"It may seem silly, but on Xbox Live your identity is your Xbox Live identity. In the EVE universe, having people not know who you are is quite important."

LOL yeah my Xbox Live identity is my Xbox Live identity, in the very same way that my PSN identity is my PSN identity.

Errr but they did allow Final Fantasy XI so the policy seems just a touch grey at best. CCP probably didn't play ball with handing over the readies.

i dont really care for dust514 tech,sony needs something more secure for their internet service,now they have to catch up as to what they lost,i really dont have to buy a ps3,ive already played a little bit of uncharted its a very good game,but not really into it,i did like god of war 3 alot but im not gonna pay to buy another console just for one game..ill stick with my 360, i like the exclusives better plus xboxlive is fantastic
