We are however interested in bug reports for anything we might have missed which allows you to transfer ISK between the games, of course in the interest of fairness we will need to take it back if you do  .
I'm working on that. So far I can say that War Dec, then "surrender" doesn't work, if they don't have a director on the eve side they don't even get the option to get out of the war (you guys should probably fix that btw), the old thing of using transfer ISK doesn't work, and the give money option does not come up for Dusters. I am scratching my brain for other ways that money is moved around that Dust might be involved in. If I find it, you guys will be the second to know (me being the first of course  ) |

Well, a few things that I have noticed that I felt I would comment on. First, once the Dust market goes to market driven economics instead of the seeded items we have now, you will see prices on everything adjust themselves. I also believe that the amount of ISK that we are earning right now is not indicative of what we will see in the live version of the game. I have yet to see a dev post here on these forums that stated that this is it.
There also seems to be an idea floating around that people would actually want to throw tons of money towards Dust. I didn't say ISK, I said money. You see, ISK does in fact have real world value. It is currently about $15 U.S. for every 500 million ISK, give or take based on market considerations. So for someone to throw his dust corp "a couple bil", or even trillions like some have claimed, is ludicrous. Enough to cover corp battle rewards? Ya, they will swing for that, but letting some idiot go out and get blown up in Proto Suits match after match? Ya, no corp in their right mind would try to replace stuff that is designed to poof.
CCP has already stated that Dust WILL be a money sink for Eve. It was designed with that in mind. They have to get ISK out of the economy. Having us blow ourselves up off of Eve provide suits was their idea. Too bad no corp in their right mind will fall for it. |
