DUST 514 website

There is a teaser there right now, nothing wild, just a bit of flavor text. I wonder if this means they are ramping up PR for it for a release in the near future?

Ironically, the little code that is there is significantly less awful than EVE Gate, meaning they probably spent an extra 12,000 man hours on it to ensure it's up to standards.

[Ix Forres]

The website code refers to the whole main thing as a countdown.

So my prediction is that this website gets a bunch of random quotes and text over the next few months and then turns into a countdown clock to release.

And then they launch the main site.

And take it down 5 mins later as someone points out the entire thing is full of XSS flaws

There's my vapid, bitter prediction for the day done.

The flavor text does make me wonder what a 273% increase over 0 ISK is. And that's before I point out that 273% isn't an order of magnitude, 1000% is.

273% is 2.37 times more. THEMOREYOUKNOW

What increased in magnitude was planetary engagements. What increased by 273% was spending on ground technologies. Just to arbitrarily nitpick your nitpick.

It's even HTML5, but if you look at the comments in the source they subcontracted it to an UK based web agency. Something they'd be well inspired to do with all their sites tbh.

2.73 times, but the text stated that spending rose 273%, so it would be 3.73 times more.

This thread is now about arguing semantics.

Dust had (has) the potential to be something good. CCP have really shot themselves in the foot by limiting themselves not only to the console market but to a console market that will probably be dead and dying in the next 2 years with the PS4 and XBOX 720 or whatever, because we're certainly due them. Could do with a PC port on release, not one 6-12 months down the line.

I love the concept but I think it will be a fucking disaster.

[Leboe]

seriously instead of programming a new explosion in dust why cant we have a new cyno effect.

Anti-Semantics.

look dude being anti-semantic is not cool, the jews have suffered enough!

Yes I am just going through my old youtube favourites.

[Joshua Foiritain]

Wow.

A few points:
1: I imagined sex lines operators were more imaginative, shes not very good at her job.
2: LOL at explaining how pods and moon goo work.
3: My sig res increased
4: rofl @ the ending.

Also; Fuck consoles so fuck dust. Release date is 2015 anyway.

Also, 273% increase year over year is an order of magnitude in less than two years, and the Empyrean War started in 2008.
