For years, CCP had been known as the EVE Online company. However the developer has recently expanded from its one-product focus with the release of Dust 514 for PlayStation 3 and the ongoing development of the World of Darkness MMO. Not only is the company pushing to expand its product lines, but it's also seeking new audiences for its tentpole EVE brand. The studio has already stepped into the free-to-play market and mobile development is the next step.
A brand new PvPvE shooter, EVE: Vanguard, looks to succeed where Dust 514 did not as a candid CCP Games reflects on its 20-year journey.
Dust 514 was such a unique game back in the day. I only played probably 10 hours of it because the balancing was way off, but otherwise it was an interesting idea.
Was a unique idea that was never realized, it didn't go beyond just being and playing like an outdated generic FPS. It never got better, and then they shut it down. If this follows the standard of your typical service style fps then it won't live long either.
Eve Online has been going strong for 20 years. As developer CCP Games looks back, there are memories imposter syndrome and final validation
CCP Games today launched EVE Anywhere, a cloud-based platform based on Intel technology for the hit spaceship MMO EVE Online. Working closely with Intel, EVE Anywhere allows pilots to command their fleets through Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari on any desktop or laptop computer.
Just like government.
Says the company that spent millions and years making 'walking in stations' that nobody wanted. CCP makes some half decent games but take this from a former Eve Online player - they are their own circlejerk the magnitude of which can't even be found on reddit. They even have songs about their company that they wrote themselves.
Dust is a bad game, years of development and the result is very disappointing the graphics are ugly, the animations are unfinished and the gameplay is bad.
Like Microsoft who felt so stupid for giving us mix messages for Xbox One. They stole the show by telling us that they change their mind, but Microsoft let Sony won E3.
