Gameplay ĭust 514 allowed players to customize infantry and vehicles with a modular fitting system similar to the ship fitting system in Eve Online.ĭust 514 was a first-person shooter with elements of massively multiplayer online games. Dust 514 players took the role of immortal ground-based soldiers which were created by the military shortly after the implant was discovered. However, the discovery of a special implant made it possible to achieve a transfer of consciousness without the use of a capsule, so it became possible to make immortals that were not pilots. The capsule was designed specifically as an interface for pilots to control the ship that they were placed within.

For much of Eve history, only capsuleers were immortal because the technology required to download consciousness was linked to a capsule that encloses them and leaves them in suspended animation. Įve Online players take the role of capsuleers, who are elite starship pilots made immortal using cloning technology and consciousness transfers. Five unique space-faring cultures emerged from the colonies to become the only interstellar powers in the new galaxy the Amarr, Caldari, Gallente, Jove and Minmatar. Eventually, a new era began when civilization was rebuilt and faster-than-light travel was rediscovered. Without support, many of the colonies in the new galaxy died off, and over time the few that remained lost their knowledge of both their technology and of their origins from Earth. However, the wormhole connecting the two galaxies collapsed, leaving the young colonies cut off from the worlds that had supplied them. A natural wormhole was discovered, and humanity entered through it to find an empty new galaxy which they began colonizing. The development of faster-than-light travel allowed mankind to expand at an extremely fast pace, leading to violent competition between space-faring corporations. The Eve Online backstory explains that humanity, after using up the Earth's resources, began to colonize the rest of the Milky Way. Dust 514 took place in the same fictional universe as Eve Online, a science fiction massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) set 21,000 years in the future.
