I do not feel like waiting hence the reason I would want a booster, right?

Why?

Items purchasable by Aurum are "sidegrades" - that is, variations on the items available for ISK that do not differ significantly in power.

Where is the ISK equivalent for these AUR boosters?

Spin it however you want call it, pay to get ahead, pay to advance faster, blah, blah, blah!
Fact of the matter is that I can not get a booster with ISK.


DUST = P2Win

You do realize it pay to hit your cap faster right?

You ran out of things to complain about so you start calling it P2W? Just bad

Not sure if trolling...

Yes it is Pay to win, but as far as CCP is consent and all the Fanboys-this is our game-HTFU-kids, it is not.

It is everything else except that ;

- Pay to have an Advantage
- Pay to get a head
- Pay to keep Dust 514 alive
- Pocket money for CCP employees
- Pay to catch up with other players
- A feature for new players
- A necessary thing to reduce the SP gap
- Extra revenue to maintain the servers

ANYTHING else.. except what it truly is.

I vote with "trolling".

Not trolling.

Passive Omega Booster (30-day)+100% passive skill point gain65000 AUR

Where is the ISK equivalent to this ^ ?

I want +100% passive skill point gain??????????????? ISK

Are you going to QQ up a storm because there is a model for CCP to actual earn revenue from the game?

I agree to a point.

In Eve a plex is $15, it'll get your close to 500,000,000 Eve ISK

Lets take the Omega Booster at $32.

You can buy 2x Plexes for $30 and get around 1 billion ISK. The going rate is about 10:1 when converting Dust/Eve ISK.

So you are roughly looking at 100,000,000 Dust ISK for an Omega Booster and 50,000,000 regular booster.

Good luck with that

It is thousands of other ways to earn revenue, but CCP have chosen the greedy one without future. Games that follow the P2W model don't last longer than a couple of years, yeah, lots of cash in the mean time... but a quick dead after that.

When I see a real example of P2W I'll start to get worried about that issue. So far, I see ridiculous claims by hysteric idiots.

Thanks to "Aeon Amadi" for posting this.

Hey, it's the 'everything wrong with AAAR 514' pic

That pic actually has too much character.

So over the course of six months, someone using both of the Omega Boosters would have attained 9,318,400 SP more than someone who did not have any boosters at all for that duration. Do with the information what you will, but I for one think that this is a bit ridiculous.

The best F2P games I've seen have all made it so money saves time.
I.e. You spend money to make things in game go quicker.
Which boosters do, and I'm ok with that.

OP does have a point.

Item for item trading needs to happen sooner than later.

It does not have to be tied to EVE just yet. But honestly what is preventing the implementation to trade uneeded items or boosters for other items or isk.

I can not get a booster without paying for it with using Aurum.

Before you say a "booster is not gear" why do I have to go to my character to activate it?

Well trolling Sherlock you can cry about the booster all you like... but it still isn't pay to win. It's pay to progress a bit faster in SP and skill development.

Anyone with half a brain realizes that saving time progressing has value but that whether or not you pay you will still be able to progress and max out whatever skills you like.

So, troll, cry, pretend you are too stupid to understand, or whatever you like.

Does paying make a difference? Sure. Can you still do everything in the game without paying? Sure.

And, finally, for the terminally stupid, a booster has no direct influence on your combat. You know, the part where people are actually worried about winning.

I think some of you are crying because people who have money and are able to save time while you can't.

Hummm, who is trolling now?

Why are you so mad at me wanting a ISK booster?

Why are you so mad at me wanting a ISK booster?

hey ONE day you will have isk boosters

when player trading comes to dust I will sell you a booster for 1 billion

...inflated claims.

Stating the fact makes people Mad sometimes I guess.

Pay to win would be only being able to purchase something with aur and it not being availablemanywhere else, boosters are how they make money dude chill, its not that serious.
