Will I be able to, as a Duster, though the vast amount of ISK I will acquire, be able to buy PLEX and mail it to an EVE account so I can play both. If no then awwww why not, and if so yeaaaa kisses and hugs me love you long time.
For those of you who are going "PLEX?" right now ......
PLEX is short for 30 Day Concord Pilot License Extension. It's an in-game item that can be used to pay for your subscription without using more traditional payment methods.
By using PLEX, you can pay for your game time simply by playing the game. You can buy PLEX through our Account Management site or you can buy PLEX with in-game ISK.
Because PLEX is an in-game item you can also make in-game profit for yourself by buying and selling it on the market.
Edit: that last part is copied and pasted from the PLEX store |

Seeing as how isk will flow freely between the two, I don't see why not. I've got a few billion sitting on an inactive eve char earmarked for the dust integration/launch. |

It's been openly stated that the marketplace will be open to all players.
I'm not only hoping we can buy PLEX, but also that we can convert it to Aurum and vice versa, OR that there's an equivalent in-game DUST item that can be created from Aurum and converted back after a sale or trade with another player. |

well my only concern is while the markets will be linked i am sure there will be stuff a dust player can buy that an EVE player can not and vice versa |

Ok, I have a follow up question. I thought I'd read somewhere maybe 2 months ago that one couldn't simply (walk into Mordor) transfer ISK from an Eve character to a Dust 514 character. Now I can't seem to find that source of info.
Anyone?

Considering its been said that EvE players can freely fund DUST players and they said that you can sell to the highest bidder, then yes, you have a 98% chance of vice versa. The last 2% is for trolls. |

You will be able to eventually transfer isk from dust to eve players. So if you wanted a plex on your eve account you could always grind the cash on your dust character and transfer it. Keep in mind that the scale of wealth in dust will be much much much lower than it is in eve.
If you wanted to get aur out of it you could use the isk to buy aur tokens. |

I think they will make sure we cant just pour isk onto out Dust chars tbh. Otherwise is proto gear every day all the time .
At 0.1 mil isk per suit im going to have 3,000,000,000,000 scout suits
3 trilion scout suits LAMO |

I've seen that said of Corp to Corp ISK transfer, at least via contracts essentially given to oneself. I dont see anything from CCP stating freely transferable funds from one character to another, but don't have time to search in depth ATM. Honestly not trying to troll you Sandromin, but do you have a link to anything? |

Most likely not possible either way (dust to eve, eve to dust). First of all its they're different games with largely different means to get ISK, a direct transfer would enable you to shoot a single npc in eve, get 1.2 million, transfer it and circumvent the necessary risk in dust to gain isk, namely putting your items on the line. The problems emerging from such a possibility in balance, progression and design would be "interesting" to say the least. So far its only said (with a huge subject to change sticker over it) that dust players can accept contracts created by eve players and that in the future (ie. maybe after dust launch) specific items might be produced in both games and traded between them. How those contract actually look like, if they require certain mechanics check (system demands that your team captured district A on planet B) to actually fullfill or if they are more freeform, is completly unanswered.
There is, to this date, no solid information about those processes avaible, most likely because the mechanics themself are not ironed out and are still designed. |

This is exactly the information I was operating with. Thanks for the reply Erestas. +1 for you. |

Over a million clones were killed over the last few days by just us beta testers. Let's say they all used remote explosives: that's instantly 1 billion isk, or 75% of them used proto AR, bringing the total up to 67 billion isk just for the weapons. now lets flesh out the fits, 30% run a fit of basic/prototype, bringing us to a total of 670 billion isk. Then let's say that 25% of them lost vehicles with something valuable on it, bringing us to over a trillion isk lost in just one beta weekend.
Let the EVE player flood us with money, it will barely keep us afloat. xD |

So I did pose an interesting question as it sounds there will be some ISK interaction but to the extent is yet to be determined. It would be nice to hear from a Dev or GM on the topic though .... Hint .... Hint .... Wink .... Wink .... Nudge ..... Nudge...... |

I could see it being possible.
I'd rather have a sustainable EVE account and Dust not have to support it, but if it ever comes down to it, sure i'll use the free game to pay for the other game.
