DeathwindRising wrote:whats CCP going to do when they merge the Eve and Dust markets and all the dust players buy eve plex buy the dozens for free? and i mean free as in not playing the game at all and just collecting isk from locked pc districts.
wont that hurt CCP's bottom line? or is CCP going free to play lol?
what happens when CCP gives us all of New Eden's low and null sec systems for pc?
every player in New Eden could have a planet for themselves and generate isk for free and buy plex.
what about inflation? market prices will skyrocket lol
There's already ways for Dust players/corps with Eve players to transfer ISK between games. Players offer this transition already and it hasn't hurt the price of Plex.
Before they add more districts they need to overhaul PC completely.
There will be a currency exchange rate between games much like countries in the real world. (Dev posted this a while back)

Because my merc could do with a few more isk (got protostomped a few times last night and had to restock) and just a straight 'Give Money' from Eve doesn't work, the option's not there anymore in fact...
The only way to transfer ISK between games is through other players. There's a few people, including myself, who offer this exchange at what we believe to be a fair exchange rate. The two most known people for doing it are Kain Spero and Min Lo.
You give 'X' amount of Dust ISK and receive 'X' amount of Eve ISK, or you give 'X' amount of Eve ISK and receive 'X' amount of Dust ISK.
The median rate we all go by is;
600m Eve ISK buys 70m Dust ISK.
120m Dust ISK buys 600m Eve ISK.
As you request lower amounts the ratio drops. This helps people Plex on Eve if they preferred to play Dust that month, or helps Eve players fund their Dust characters if they run out of ISK.
Of course there's a lot of trust involved. When I was new to Eve I did this through Min Lo and it helped me out a lot. Now that I'm both Eve and Dust "wealthy" I offer my services out to mostly just friends. This is actually the first time I've posted it publicly. |

The new eden in dust is the same as the new eden in eve, if 1isk in Gallente space (for example) equals 1 isk in Caldari space (no exchange rate between actual nations in game) it should be the same going from dust to eve and back. Or give dust it's own currency, maybe whatever the non-immortals use day to day in the empires. We know from lore that it's not isk. Call them credits maybe and give *that* an exchange rate. Previous poster was correct that devs have already mentioned planning a conversion rate. It would be silly if they made it easy to buy a ~$20 PLEX and turn it into 600+ mil for dust since it seriously cripples the demand for Aurum. Giving Dust it's own currency isn't a bad idea, but it still implements a conversion rate.
Agreed, there would HAVE to be an exchange rate. I can easily pull in a couple hundred million a day Eve side, Dust side that's literally impossible... Unless you're a part of the giant RA blue donut... Anyways, if I could send that 200m I made in one day to my Dust character at no exchange rate I could run proto suits for weeks, months even. Hell I could fund a full on Dust war with a weeks worth of Eve ISK grinding with no exchange rate. |
