DUST Search - We need a corp uvt.

Quote:

Dear players,

We are quite impressed and inspired by your feedbacks and comments regarding the UVT introduction. Therefore, we have made some changes and a more detailed description on what the UVT is and offers. We hope that this will address many of your concerns and illustrate its value to players. We look forward to hearing your feedback as you test the UVT during beta and together we can improve its implementation.

Fostering smooth and easy communication for our players is hugely important for CCP and a key element of DUST 514. Long-time EVE Online players know that we think a thriving community is imperative to a gameGÇÖs success.

WeGÇÖd like to clarify how the chat and voice function will work within DUST 514 and between DUST 514 and EVE Online. WeGÇÖre offering a very robust suite of options for free.

Voice chat in DUST 514 for teams in a battle is free.
Voice chat in DUST 514 pre-made squads, both in and out of battle, is free.
All text chat, including text chat between DUST 514 and EVE Online, is free.
All mail, including mail between DUST 514 and EVE Online, is free

The following activities will require the purchase of a Universal Voice Transmitter (UVT) using Aurum (AUR), the currency purchased with real world money in DUST 514.

Voice chat in a custom channel in DUST 514 (which can include both DUST 514 and EVE Online players)
Voice chat in a Corp channel (which can include both DUST 514 and EVE Online players) when Corps are implemented in DUST 514

We have not finalized pricing for the UVT GÇô it is likely that the prices youGÇÖve seen will be reduced by the time the game exits closed beta. We are also looking into offering the ability for Corps to buy UVT items that cover the entire group.

In addition, in order to test the voice chat feature, we are going to reduce the cost of the UVT to 1 AUR for the duration of the closed beta.

Lastly, weGÇÖll soon be adding a player-driven market to DUST 514 that will allow players to buy and sell all manner of items for ISK (the currency you earn in game), including UVTs.

FAQ:

Q: Why do DUST players have to pay for voice chat and EVE players do not?
A: In EVE Online, we can cover the ongoing costs of voice chat through the gameGÇÖs subscription fee. Because DUST is free-to-play, we will need players to cover some of the costs of voice chat.

Q: How do you enable voice chat across DUST 514 and EVE Online?
A: You can purchase a Universal Voice Transmitter in DUST 514 using Aurum

Q: How much does a UVT cost?
A: We have not finalized pricing for the UVT. The pricing in the closed beta test is preliminary and we would love to get feedback from players via the beta testing forums.

Q: Will the price of a UVT stay at 1 AUR after closed beta ends?
A: No, this is a temporary price to encourage players to test the feature. Final pricing for UVTs has not been determined.

Q: Will EVE players have to pay to voice chat with DUST players?
A: No, we have no plans at this time to charge extra for EVE players to cross-game voice chat

Q: When will the player market be added to DUST 514?
A: This is something the development team is working on. We are definitely planning to implement it.

Q: ArenGÇÖt UVTs a pay-to-win feature since they make communication easier and are only available for purchase with AUR?
A: We understand this concern and plan to address it before the game ships via the in-game player market, which will allow players to buy and sell UVTs with ISK, the currency awarded in game.

We also need the ability to donate aur to corp to cover the uvt cost. just an idea, discuss

We shouldn't have to pay to talk with people In a multiplayer game IMO. Other games do it, and its only for out of combat comms anyway. It's also hella cheap - $0.50 US for 30 days (assuming they keep the 1k AUM price)? That is a phone call.
Xavier Blackstar ZionTCD Legacy Rising 12	Posted - 2013.01.11 19:11:00 - [5] - Quote I like this idea, if it cost ISK and was a monthly "bill". So the corp calls up the New Eden phone company and pays X amount of ISk a month. I'm just a dust bunny so I don't know what would be a good price with all the money EVE corps have. It would also take money out of the game so corps would have to work to make that money back promoting mining and other money making ventures. just my 2 ISK.
SoTa PoP Internal Error. Negative-Feedback 1772	Posted - 2013.01.11 19:12:00 - [6] - Quote just a thought - but if in EvE you can buy game time with ISK then maybe they should allow that for comms as well? >_>
