Long and short is "Nothing yet"
In future builds, and when we intergrate with EVE, the majority of gear will be produced by players. There is always an NPC market in Empire space but this does not exist in Nullsec (Where the big fights you talk of happen).
I understand that sooner or later we'll have a way to do industry in DUST too, but movement of arms though Nullsec\Alliance space will still be done off the backs of Capsuleers.
DUST's market right now is a very trimmed down, simplified version of what it will be. Dust's market will be EXACTLY the same market as EVEs soon, as in you'll be able to buy and trade EVE modules\ships from your merc quaters just like an EVE player will be able to trade merc's guns to maximize profits. |

Which I am not saying is a bad thing, i just dont see how the 24v24 or lower player battles stop people stomping down on those below (my example of people turning to militia fits) as no alliances will work in battle. Are you expecting at launch that we will have influence over Eve's market? I thought CCP didnt want Dust to have such an impact yet on Eve as a protective measure for their main IP. @Sha: will do.
Perhaps not right off the bat but the markets will slowly merge over time until they're indistinguishable. This is only to protect EVEs hyper sensitive market, not DUSTs, I should point out.
And yes, the Nullsec space belongs to alliances, as do the planets. If you want to fight on the planets in their regions, you're going to need their backing from other sizeable alliances to fund and equip you (Remember, there is no market out there).
The game we play now is how empire space will work, I believe. Just a normal online FPS. There is faction warfare, where I imagine everyone will play "normally" this is where you fight for one of the 4 major empires over each others space and earn rewards for both you and EVE pilots. EVE Pilots also help fight over space. NullSec is alliance warfare and will be funded 100% by the alliance, for the alliances. |

Nope! The market out there is made and populated by the Alliances who live there. So the miners in the alliance mine the asteroids and hand the minerals off to industrialists who run them through factories to produce ships\modules\armour\tanks etc.
They're then passed onto EVE players with marketing and trade skills trained who then ship the modules out to the stations that need them and place them on sale, usually for insane amounts of ISK.
If DUSTies want to invade another Alliances NullSec, they're going to need to have weapons and armour brought to them, or live off Aurum gear. There are talks that this will be changed slightly to accommodate DUST, but as it stards right now, Dustbunnies would need MASSIVE support from alliances to succeed in NullWars. (Or an alliance could make arms and armour parts of their contracts when hiring mercs. Guess we'll see!) |
