In short, EvE players will decide prices and who gets what. Tbh? Way to ruin the game. Give all EvE players prototype access while everyone who isn't in EvE pays 4 billion per protosuit. Yay for live markets. Oh and that's 4 billion IF you are fighting for them. Fighting against them? Gtfo. Tbh EvE players screwing with pricing will totally screw the game, and CCP need to figure out a way to deal with this.
EvE players can totally ruin dust if they do choose basically, they earn billions of ISK. A good miner will earn more ISK than all of us beta testers put together. So yeah, money will flow bak to EvE and probably never return. |

I know I know. Just laying down the worst case scenario for us Dusters. I mentioned protosuits because there is nothing better. It's the battleship of Dust. 4billion was an exaggeration. However 1mil per suit would be tough on us Mercs. EvE players lol @ 1 mil.
I can't see it really being as bad as I predict. However, these threats have been made already by EvE players. That they will manipulate the markets, and screw you for every ISK your corp ever had by infiltrating & disbanding your corp. What if you need 1 piece of techtanium or whatever the shizzle is needed for titans. What % value would that make a protosuit ;) CCP need to be careful with what makes everything. Limiting various things to 0.0 only without a stable population would be mad. But CCP have done more insane things *points through the cyno at the approaching doomsday weapons*
Hi sec suit production is going to be a winner for the industrialists.
Edit: Protosuit = battleship, marauder = supercap |

Not if you are producing it. Then we work for you, no choice if we want good gear. I'm only playing devils advocate here. |

Quote:So the only situation in which it could really be an issue is if EVE players as an almost entire entity decided to collude and raise prices as a bloc similar to how OPEC operates in the real world, but on a much larger scale. Of course, there would be no reason for this to occur - everyone would lose money and an effective fighting force.
You heard of OTEC? The thing to really remember is that if these problems occur, it would affect all dusters with poor contacts fairly evenly, so everyone would be in advanced gear at best. Tbh it's not so much of a problem IMHO, and just a possibility. Any Dusters can always join a null alliance in the long run and will be getting sorted nicely anyway. Provided they're winning
I hope that the active cloaks will be billions each though. I hate invisible people. Especially with a shotgun. |
