Vallud Eadesso Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 63	Posted - 2012.11.12 23:37:00 - [1] - Quote Simple question really, will Dust and EVE accounts be merged into a single account, or will I be able to have both a Starship logged in, in orbit on my planet while still playing on the ground, where I may or may not then call in strikes. Sad of me, I know, but i'm sure CCP is aware this _WILL_ happen if they don't merge accounts, right?
VK deathslaer Tritan-Industries Legacy Rising 149	Posted - 2012.11.12 23:41:00 - [2] - Quote Kind of the point isn't it? why wouldn't you want to play dust and eve with 2 eve alts rockin' same time?

Garrett Blacknova Codex Troopers 1849	Posted - 2012.11.12 23:57:00 - [5] - Quote I remember someone mentioning in an interview that they wouldn't be surprised if someone runs both games side by side and sets up to provide their own orbital strikes.

Thats practically a given.
Gunthar Bundar Circle of Huskarl Minmatar Republic 11	Posted - 2012.11.13 01:46:00 - [7] - Quote Short of being able to OB, I'm already doing so. Can't help but open EVE up when I'm ground pounding!
Maken Tosch Planetary Response Organisation Test Friends Please Ignore 1591	Posted - 2012.11.13 02:16:00 - [8] - Quote Well, that would be nice but you have to consider one factor here. Eve Online is subscription based ($15/month USD) while Dust 514 is free to download and play. If Dust accounts are to merge into Eve accounts, that would mean that account will not be used in two places at once. Currently in Eve Online, an account with two characters will not be able to log both characters at the same time unless the user pays for another account to multi-box with.

Currently in Eve Online, an account with two characters will not be able to log both characters at the same time unless the user pays for another account to multi-box with. They won't be linked together. All of my Eve accounts already have full character slots, so do the Dust/ PSN accounts. The fact that Dust accounts go through PSN and not CCP eliminates that possibility. Even if there was some way to forcibly tie them together, all Eve accounts would have to be bumped to 6 slots. Still wouldn't be a concern really. Most older players and especially old nulsec players have multiple accounts. Just as Eve players were granted a Beta code for each account, I'm sure there will be some special program for Dust players to get something like three months free or whatever to branch into Eve. Without doubt though, Eve accounts will not be directly tied to Dust/PSN accounts.

Gunthar Bundar Circle of Huskarl Minmatar Republic 11	Posted - 2012.11.13 02:37:00 - [11] - Quote Microsoft tied Live accounts between their consoles and computers. If you've played any Windows Live enabled games as well as xbox games, you might have found out that you are unable to log into both at the same time. The market has already rejected this business model, so hopefully they will never consider implementing the linkage between accounts.
Fivetimes Infinity Immobile Infantry 1086	Posted - 2012.11.13 02:38:00 - [12] - Quote It's not like you're going to be able to park a destroyer in orbit and just bombard battles indefinitely.

Well it kinda be cool if CCP logged your IP address and only let you log in one at a time imo Multiple clients from the same IP is nothing new. Why would it change now? It's not uncommon for people to have anywhere from two to upwards of ten clients running at the same time. Practically a one man fleet.
