I know there is no market yet, but this is just a question to forum mercs.
I think you should be able to sell boosters for isk. Once you reach 30-40m sp there is hardly anymore reason to buy boosters or spend $$ on this game. The games vets are all hitting this point by now.
Allowing mercs to be able to sell aurum gear and boosters would give them another reason to spend $$ on this game. This will also allow the younger players without jobs to have a chance to save up isk for a booster and use it for double or triple sp events.
Everytime I get a like, another bug is fixed.
20k bugs fixed. :)

Benefits all parties in DUST. Makes the whole pay to win thing come back into the conversation though.
but players unable to invest money because of tight financial situations can Use what they have earned playing the game(ISK) And players with expendable income and not enough time to grind ISK can purchase a booster from CCP to sell to someone that wouldn't normally have a chance to get one. Allowing for more Booster sales for CCP in general. |

If a basic AUR suit is 30k or more, you may well be better off running FW. If you can sell FW gear, you can run it to get equipment to sell. It is basic economics. If FW gear can be sold cheaper and be more profitable because of the volume (Welcome to Walmart) it can become a better way to make money to run FW rather than Ambush/Domination.

Can't see why not, player 1 buys a booster with and sells that to player 2 for X amount of ISK, much like PLEX in EVE
As for AUR gear, why not? People are going to ask high ISK prices for those things since they paid money to get the AUR to get those suits.

Only if FW gear is made unique enough to bother over. AKA New Skins for suits and weapons and bonuses better suited to the racial groups....or perhaps bearing slight 1-2% bonuses for other game aspects that makes earning and buying them worth.
For example I have 50,000+ loyalty points......how much ISK should that translate into.
250K LP for a Faction Battleship which could go for upwards of 700,000,000.....

No it wouldn't. There are certain FW dropsuits, weapons, modules and equipment that have no aurum counterparts that are as good. There are no aurum or isk counterparts for the Amarr prototype viziam uplink for example. No counterpart for the caldari state nanite injector (that revives 100 % armor) etc.
So there would still be plenty of incentive to play FW (the uplinks are a must have in PC for example) |

Providing a legitimate in-game channel for real money trading is one of the better ways of combating illicit RMT.
So either selling Aurum items for ISK, or directly selling Aurum for ISK, is likely to be somewhere in the mix I'd say.

As a dedicated Eve Online player who has been playing since 2008 and has understood New Eden economics on a lot of levels, I can say that it's a safe bet that Boosters should be allowed to be traded for ISK. In that, that will actually benefit players who have a lot of ISK but no cash and also players who have a lot of cash but don't want to grind too much for ISK.
The best part about this idea is that ISK is not really generated at all in this process. ISK will only be transferred from one player to another with some loss of ISK due to broker fees or taxes.
PLEX is already a prime example of this in Eve Online and so far the market for it is booming and it gives Eve Online players alternative means to extend their game time if they are not willing to pay cash.
Conclusion: Let it happen, CCP. Boosters traded between players for ISK will be a good thing.

This is also another benefit to this idea. PLEX in Eve Online has been effective in combating illegal RMT operations since now Eve players won't need to pay cash to a third party for ISK. CCP provides that instead via the player-to-player market. It's amazing how a free-market system works.

in my opinion anything that we can buy or have in our mercs possession should be fair game for the market.
I know many dustbros hate comparisons to eve, but anything you can get there can be traded freely and this game takes place in that universe and will be fully integrated into eve eventually if ccp stays true it its vision for these 2 games.
the item in eve that stands out the most to me to compare to boosters is plex which can freely be traded and stolen from players in eve. I don't see why boosters should be treated differently, or for that matter any other item including bpo's.
this game makes me sad....

Exactly. There are super rare items in Eve that you can't get anywhere unless you know someone and yet they are freely traded in the market. Examples:
Sansha Nation Revenant Super Carrier. There are only 2 existing in the market. There use to be a third, until...
http://broskinorth.derzorn.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=29265
According to Forbes.com, the estimated real-world value of the ship loss was $9,000 fully fitted.
Source: http://www.forbes.com/sites/davidthier/2013/07/09/eve-online-player-loses-a-spaceship-worth-approximately-9000/
Since now there are only 2 left in the market, their value has increased. Yet this ship is still freely tradable if you happen to have enough ISK and know the only two players in the game who happen to own one.
Then there are the Tech 2 BPOs that exist in Eve Online. Those are still freely traded if you know who owns one. These BPOs are totally ultra rare since CCP no longer gives them out.

How much ISK would a Complex Overdrive(low slot) cost?
Also, who has 50+ of these?
How much ISK would a Cala's SMG be worth? How about Standard FW gear? These things would be comparable to Aur gear, but would serve little purpose other than a type of 'militia' grade weapon for things CCP is too lazy to make a variant for.

Everything but the AUR currency should be allowed on the market and if not CCP is borking it up. The payers will set the price because if it is too high no one will buy it and if too low it will sell out quick.
With an open market AUR is a way to convert RL monies to ISK and nothing more because all items will be on the market for ISK and people with RL monies but no ISK will have a way to play that suits their situation.
I say no AUR currency because the item bought with AUR is the choice that players have to make that determines the profit they make from RL monies and selling AUR for ISK might as well be selling ISK packs.

We definitely will be able to. Ccps already doing the code exchanges oversight and thus its already possible. In fact I've already purchased a twenty dollar psn code over these forums for isk. And this was before the oversight of ccp started too. I needed aurum to buy certain suits and bpos and the boosters as well, so I bought a psn code off a forum goer and there were no problems because neither of us were "hurdy hurr scammers!" with acne on their face and ass sitting in their moms basement.

Thats how the prices of a PLEX and other items in EVE Online works. Before they put out customized ships for AUR, PLEX were sold for about 550 million ISK, but because people want these customized ships, they buy up all the PLEX for AUR thus the 750 mill cost for a PLEX now.

deepfried salad gilliam wrote:yes but not aurum dropsuits, that would make fw useless Not quite, I imagine when the player market comes in, aur stuff will be priced higher than the equivalent isk item as you are buying that item with the same currency but it comes with a lower sp requirement so it is therefore worth more FW stuff has the lower sp requirement and a low isk cost which is offset by the lp cost
Each 3 methods has it's own advantages and disadvantages:
Normal isk market items -Moderate isk cost -High sp cost
FW market -Low isk cost -lower sp cost -Needs lp
Player market aur items sold for isk -High isk cost -Lower sp cost |

People sell PLEX for what they think people will pay for it. It is a matter of Supply and Demand, with the hard cap of perceived value.
Supply: If there are more people selling PLEX or boosters the price will go down. Demand: If there are more people wanting to buy PLEX or boosters the price will go up. Perceived Value: If the price is so high that people will decide not to buy PLEX or boosters, then they will not sell, and the sellers will have to lower their price.

I think doing so would make it way too easy to AFK and still make mad sp.
I hate AFKers that spin in the MCC or hide deep in the redzone so if there is an idea that makes AFKing more desirable then I'm against it.
I would be ok with the idea of being able to buy boosters with isk through the marketplace if they did 2 things first. 1) Have the same redlines for both sides on all maps (a map border rather than different red zones depending on the side. 2) Force players to leave the MCC or be booted due to idling.
I just don't like the idea of a player spinning for sp with omega boosters and not having to pay real money to do so.
As far as selling and trading items player to player I'm ok with that but it had better be secure as hell. There would be too much temptation for thieves and hackers. Most crimes are crimes of opportunity.

Absolutely--it also has the benefit of making boosters accessible to those who cannot or will not acquire them with AUR. It is precisely this principle with allows people to play EVE for free (using in-game money to buy in-game time in the form of an item that initially enters the economy through a RL purchase).
Although it remains to be seen what exchange rates will look like, etc. That is, if a 30-Day Passive costs 14,000 AUR, will it cost 1,400,000 ISK (100:1)? 14,000,000 ISK (1000:1)? I'm guessing it could be even higher, which would pretty much necessitate that CCP get PVE play going stat (a la Incursions or DED complexes or whatever in EVE--we need a non-PC way to make some serious skrilla!).

I hate AFKers that spin in the MCC or hide deep in the redzone so if there is an idea that makes AFKing more desirable then I'm against it.
I would be ok with the idea of being able to buy boosters with isk through the marketplace if they did 2 things first. 1) Have the same redlines for both sides on all maps (a map border rather than different red zones depending on the side. 2) Force players to leave the MCC or be booted due to idling.
I just don't like the idea of a player spinning for sp with omega boosters and not having to pay real money to do so.
As far as selling and trading items player to player I'm ok with that but it had better be secure as hell. There would be too much temptation for thieves and hackers. Most crimes are crimes of opportunity.
Secure transactions, yes. But be warned that CCP sees scams, ransoming, extortion, and corp theft as legitimate gameplay tactics in New Eden. As a result the secondary market will see an influx of both honest traders and scheming merchants which will further add another later to the dynamics of DUST.
