I always read things about keeping the market balanced and not disrupting the economy.
For example, when CCP goofed and gave a lot of people 30M ISK. They had to fix it, because they claimed it messed up the economy of the New Eden Universe or something like that.
Isn't ISK and the Assets you can buy infinite? What the hell is this market & economy thing everyone talks about? Did I miss something? Because I've been hearing about it since DUST first came out and have never understood it. |

Seriously, someone explain it.
If there was a set amount of ISK in circulation and assets you could buy, then I can see it. But I can gain infinite ISK and Assets, like every player. SP is infinite as well.
You can't have a market or economy if everything is infinite. The prices of products can never change and circulation of ISK can never occur.

You realize that none of that makes any sense. Because I can go into a match, hide, or AFK and get ISK, I can do this until I have quad-trillions of ISK, and I can buy assets with it until I have googles of them...
Without a set number of assets or ISK in circulation, there can never be anything of what you are talking about. DUST already has Multi-trillionaires that can conceivably never run out of ISK or assets.
CCP would have to change the currency system in this game completely. |

CCP would have to change the currency system in this game completely. This is exactly why CCP needs to implement the player run market ASAP. The longer they wait, the more potential damage will be done. ISK is rapidly accumulating with nothing to really spend it on. Very few players lose isk. ...Wait until the time you want proto tanks.
If I have 5,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,051 ISK accumulated, because it's infinite, I can buy all the PROTOTYPE whatever I want... |

So, if & when this actual economy gets implemented, CCP will build in artificial inflation?
So if I have 18quad-trillion ISK, the game will factor that into my buying power, and I would be paying 2 Billion ISK for a Miltia Submachine Gun?
Or will eventually the market store go away and we can only buy from players(or what players sell into the market store), as the game will have a finite amount of each item? So rare Officer items will be worth 10,000x there Prototype Mass produced counterparts?
