CCP. In order to alleviate our fears, I think it is about time you start being more forthcoming with the intended mechanics about player industry.
- Which items are to be player produced, and which are not.
- Will the player market be global (for instance like in World of Warcraft) or localized like in EVE Online?
- How will EVE players seed the Dust market,
- Will EVE trading characters be able to access the Dust market?

It is the hunch that AUR items won't be player produced I'm fearing. |

Eve is a little different, and CCP will never get away with introducing AUR items that have any strategic or tactical benefits. At all.
To be honest, the majority of the blow-out we had when they introduced the NeX store, weren't just about the prices (virtual clothing costing about as much as real life fashion items), but silence. Silence and uncertainty.
CCP dumped this on us with "look at this great idea", then nothing, causing widespread panic and fear that CCP were about to introduce "Gold Ammo". They made a number of other mistakes in that case, but still, the problem were no feedback from CCP upon queries.
EVE is different because it is already a subscription game, and not really a cheap one. And I am conceding that CCP need to make money off Dust, somehow, I just think they are going at it the worst possible way: By alienating old players, and appearing to break old promises.
