EVE is sick, CCP is awesome and Dust 514 was pretty cool. Based on CCP's comments about Dust it seems like they really understand why it failed which is great. If they can create something on a slightly smaller scale with some really good mechanics I think it would be a hit. I was kinda hoping they'd go for something like CS/Valorant as I could see that meshing well with shipboard combat settings. Sounds like that's not the case but I'm sure this will be great.
Imagine that though... Small maps set inside capital ships as the setting and named as such. Fast paced combat à la Valorant... Would be cool.
The only and I mean ONLY problem I had with 514 ( I was in one of the testing phases pre release) was that it was a console exclusive, I can't stand playing shooters on a controller anymore.
