DUST514.org secures interview with Hilmar Petursson and the DUST 514 crew. PDF Print E-mail

 

Regular visitors of the forums will know that we have been trying to arrange an interview with CCP.  We have had a thread open since the site launched where people could put forward questions to the development team in the hope that we could get them answered for you.

So we are pleased to be able to announce that we have secured an interview with Hilmar Petursson and his DUST 514 development crew at fanfest!

CCP would like a provisional list of questions in ASAP, so if you want to have your voice heard get to the forums quickly and post your questions.  Please bear in mind though, that they will not have time to answer ALL the questions, so we will be choosing the best of the bunch to be put forward.

The List so far:

  • Eddie Gordo - How reliant will DUST 514 be on the sucsessful launch of COSMOS?
  • Eddie Gordo - There were a few different classes of vehichles shown in the DUST 514 trailer, can you tell us a little about each vehichle class?
  • amak11 - What is the maximum number of players supported for a single battle?
  • Zothike - Will our Eve Oline avatar names be reserved for us in DUST 514?
  • Grr - Will we be able to use all the planetery vehicles, packets of cigerates, small firearms, spirits and pax Amarria that we all have sitting around in our hangers to support our troops?
  • Zothike - If we want to train on another FPS to be prepared for when dust 514 comes out, which FPS currently on the market most closely resembles Dust 514?
  • Zothike - EVE Online is notorious for having a “hands off” approach when it comes to things like sabotage, espionage and corporate theft.  How will issues like friendly fire and other methods of sabotage be dealt with?
  • Ayers - In Dust 514 will there be crafting to the degree that there is in eve online?
  • Ayers - Will there be MTAC's like in Tony Gonzales' Emperyean Age?
  • Ayers - How are players transported from Planet A to planet B?
  • Ayers – Will there be a levelling system? (if there is a levelling system, what can you tell us about it? Will it be like Eve Online?
  • Ayers – Will there be racial weapons, armour and craft like you find in Eve Online?
  • Ayers – What can you tell us about the air combat?
  • Terra Firma – Will players play DUST under their gamer tags, or will they be able to create new names for their DUST marines?
  • Tsan Manaan – Will there be a subscription system, or will the game be a one off purchase with DLC?
  • Dachucky - Are players in EVE going to be able to influence the battles in DUST directly in any way (Not through supplying ground forces, more by shooting stuff, commanding troops etc) ?
**You will notice that I have simplified or reworded a few of the questions.  To have the best chance of actually having your question asked in the video, please try not to be too specific

All the planetery vehicles, packets of cigerates, small firearms, spirits and pax Amarria that we all have sitting around in our hangers...

What about the most important question of them all?

Will we the pc players be able to play the game some day?
Are they planing parallel pc release or just only some vague plans for the distant future?

is there any hope for dust514 coming to pc anytime in the future?

will there be any specific "command mode" that help commanders organize squads, building structures?

will there be any quests or achievements in dust514?

will there be any NPCs fighting in dust514 or will there only be players fighting each other?

Good set of questions fredrik, I'll make sure Sapphrine gets them. However they may not get asked as we already sent off a list of questions we would be asking to CCP before he went off to iceland and there may not be time for extras.
