Any thoughts?

I for one was aroused but fell short of a climax. Sure its pweeeeetyyy but its a tiny snippet that, to be honest, looks good but not "hot damn!" good.

I'm disappointed it will not be on PC but it's understandable.

Honestly it's reminding me more and more of Planetside with some of its game play features.

[Kyoko Sakoda]

PC also equals easier hacking - though to be fair it can be done on PS3 too - and therefore upsetting the balance of two games rather than one.

Also there seems to be a lot of vehicular action, which makes a gamepad quite useful for at least half the gameplay.

[Senn Typhos]

Welp, hope it stays looking good. Getting pretty tired of games being released in worse form than their pre-alpha.

I got stuck on the wrong side of the console platform divide, but blame Microsoft, as they forced CCPs hand on which console to pick for Dust.

[Raphael Saint]

Dammit, Dust needs to hurry up and get here (but with the contridictory conditions of being unrushed and finely polished, of course).

What's with the rocks? It looks like New Mexico, not New Eden. Yaaaaaaay, generic and uncreative level design.

i learned from captain kirk, that most alien planets look like the vasquez rocks.


though, could be worse, there could be air ducts, sewers, or wooden packing crates involved

The BBC chalk pit, please.

[Saikoyu]

All alien planets are either a quary in Wales (is it really chalk Matariki?) or the Paramount back lot if outside. 

Though I am hoping that Dust will eventually have things like Lava planets that will look more exotic.

[Senn Typhos]

I know, it sucks how planets sometimes look the same.

We should be fighting on like, Klendathu, to be more in the spirit of EVE.

[Graelyn]

There's going to be THOUSANDS of maps in DUST.

They're not all gonna be breathless vista of beauty.

[lallara zhuul]

Thousands?

Thats going to mean that the map design is shit.

[Ghost Hunter]

AFAIK, since PI structures will be the common fighting point in Dust 514, the actual issue doesn't appear to be that bad.

Planets with pre-existing cities and the such will be the biggest hurdle, but PI combat sites are literally copy+paste. PI structures having a valid, reusable schematic to turn sections of the world into arenas isn't a stretch. At the very least, you have thousands of randomly generated terrain with printed out combat sites.

[Seriphyn]

And not to mention that the natural environments will be procedurally generated.
