Moorian Flav 641	Posted - 2017.05.03 16:15:00 - [1] - Quote Even if you don't play EVE, you might have some interest in the following news as most long term DUST players dealt with Aurum at some point: Quote: Aurum had its run but we are excited to move forward with PLEX only. https://community.eveonline.com/news/dev-blogs/plex-changes-on-the-way/ This also makes me wonder if Aurum will not be seen in Project Nova and we will instead see PLEX.

DUST Fiend 19135	Posted - 2017.05.03 16:35:00 - [2] - Quote Maybe somewhere down the line but I dont see CCP charging full price for a lobby shooter and sure as hell not doing a subscription fee, so I can only imagine microtransactions will be alive and well should Nova ever actually become a thing. Rage flavored bitter berry
Pokey Dravon OSG Planetary Operations 9207	Posted - 2017.05.03 17:49:00 - [3] - Quote If anything it encourages them to use AUR for Nova as a premium currency since there won't be any confusion or discussion about transferring between games. EVE: Phoenix - 'Rise Again' Trailer
Juno Tristan Obscure Reference 1235	Posted - 2017.05.03 18:27:00 - [4] - Quote So long as my Dust Aurum carries over to Nova, otherwise I'm gonna rage /s The Final PLC Kill Dust 514 - My Final Moments

Pokey Dravon OSG Planetary Operations 9216	Posted - 2017.05.05 03:43:00 - [7] - Quote I thinking making AUR be the PLEX of Nova would be reasonable. Not sure what they're planning in terms of cost (if any) to play the game, but having a granular resource that can be purchased with cash and then traded to other players or used for various things such as cosmetics and the sort, seems like a reasonable model to follow.

It's a possibility but I don't know how much of one it is. As a dev/publisher, when you are wanting to get players/customers interested in different products for the same family/series, you normally stay as consistent as possible to make it simplest for players/customers to switch between those products. Therefore, keeping AUR for a new game when it has been phased out for an older game wouldn't make much since. I think the most plausible is that both games have PLEX as the purchasable currency but they would be separate and not interchangeable. Of course, this is all thinking between EVE and Project Nova as I do not know what currencies are available in Gunjack or Valkyrie which are also supposed to take place within the EVE universe.

Pokey Dravon OSG Planetary Operations 9216	Posted - 2017.05.05 14:46:00 - [9] - Quote I understand what you're getting at but I also worry that people may start to think that you could use PLEX obtained in Nova would be usable for their EVE accounts. So I'm not sure what's more confusing, being consistent or not lol EVE: Phoenix - 'Rise Again' Trailer

So I'm not sure what's more confusing, being consistent or not lol Yeah but CCP is kind of in a unique situation by pushing their EVE universe within different games. I guess Blizzard has a similar situation with their WoW based games such as WoW itself, Hearthstone, and Heroes of the Storm but as I've only played Hearthstone, I am not sure how they handle purchases between all games. Maybe the EVE launcher will turn into the CCP store to cover all games with the understanding purchases within games are separate. I don't troll; I tell the truth.

Pokey Dravon OSG Planetary Operations 9216	Posted - 2017.05.05 15:53:00 - [11] - Quote I mean we saw how much confusion was caused by DUST and EVE both having ISK. So much so that Valkyrie just uses "VISK" to avoid the same issue. EVE: Phoenix - 'Rise Again' Trailer

So much so that Valkyrie just uses "VISK" to avoid the same issue. In that case then, so much for EVE Phoenix as I don't see CCP going for PISK. Of course, NISK (for Nova) does not sound that great either. Seriously though, if integration is in fact planned between EVE and Nova at some point in the future, I would think the same overall in game currency (ISK) would have to be used. The pay-for currency not so much where either AUR or PLEX may work. As for Gunjack and Valkyrie, they are short term one offs which is why I really don't know why a delineation had to be made for their currencies. I don't troll; I tell the truth.

Pokey Dravon OSG Planetary Operations 9216	Posted - 2017.05.05 16:34:00 - [13] - Quote Well Gunjack is single player and doesn't have currency if I recall. But yeah we will have to see how things play out. It could really go either way. EVE: Phoenix - 'Rise Again' Trailer

Haha I wish, But I fear PR may dislike the implied connection to Dust to ever consider it The whole game is an implied connection to Dust. They haven't shied away from it in recent articles, why would they shy away from it when it comes to naming Nova? Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.
Moorian Flav 641	Posted - 2017.05.08 18:17:00 - [18] - Quote Back on topic, I've had the thought of buying some PLEX lately only as I am guessing there will be a slightly higher cost to PLEX when the changeover takes place. After all, such a changeover would be the perfect time to add in a price hike especially if you can make it not that noticeable. Besides, I figure I have spent enough time in EVE lately as an Alpha as well as recently maxed out my skill tree as an Alpha where I might as well pay for a 3 month subscription.

Moorian Flav 642	Posted - 2017.05.09 13:50:00 - [20] - Quote FYI: The PLEX changeover has appeared to have happened today as saw an ad on the launcher for PLEX "now starting at $5" (when was previously $20 for 1). I don't troll; I tell the truth. I'm also known as "The ANTI-Propaganda Machine".
