@CCP. I’ve never played Eve, but being a player of mmo’s such as RuneScape, and conscious of the existence of games like WoW, I still have at least *heard* of Eve Online. Eve seems like a fantastic product, had I the time for it. The concept of helping out Eve Players from my PS3 in a FPS seems very cool. Count me in for the Beta. I’ve already shared the Dust 514 Video to all my pals on FB, I hope there’s another exciting trailer when Dust 514 is ready so I can hook my gaming friends to an exciting new game. Well done CCP, I look forward to it.

And Bungie stole the idea of Halo from Larry Niven and his Ringworld series. Your points being?

As for the game, like some have said, since Zipper and Sony failed to support and expand MAG the way people wanted, we’ve been wanting a complete, dynamic game for a while. That the maps in Dust will be around 5 times as large as any Domination map alone excites me. It tells me that snipers may actually finally have their use, if sniper rifles are in the game.

as a long time eveonline player, the wait for dust is killing me. but i need to ask this…….
will there be any type of planetary defense that can be launched and the eve players in orbit of the planets?
this will clear up a big debate between our alliance members.

I’ve been playing EVE-Online since 2004. (Name: Grim Starwind) and I was wondering if when it comes to Beta time, will EVE players who are also bad ass FPS games *cough* mysefl *cough* be more likely to be chosen as these testers of the new technology. Because let’s be honest.. when it comes to testing new tech, you don’t want just ANY old dude getting their hands on it ;P right? Right?

Players can control their own spawn locations by training skills to use and equipping a limited-use Drop Uplink (this is something CCP will talk more about later on). This, in effect, allows players to define their own spawn point locations.

And as to shooting down the RDVs, yes, it’s possible but not very easy.

The RDV is not limited by fuel, but the number of vehicles that can be active at any given time is limited so sometimes an RDV request made by the player will be declined.

RDVs can deploy anywhere, but obviously doing so near the enemy will probably result in the RDV or your delivered vehicle being destroyed before you get a chance to use it.
