He has gotten better as he's been exposed to the EVE economy for a few years, compared to the first and second fanfest presentation this one is excellent. |

It's the most interesting aspect of the game i'll have you know.
I'm not surprised by those numbers at all.
The real interesting fact that half of you here won't know is that EVE's economy has sunk 650T isk in 10 years. So in the very near future Dust's impact will be larger than EVE's as a whole.
Even if the individuals are much worse off. |

It's a cool number to cite, dude, but to put it in perspective...
http://dustboard.com/global
Dustboard is tracking 2.1 million mercenary names.
You divide that 600 trillion by that number of players:
282 199 159.235
So the claim is that, on average, EVERY SINGLE Dust mercenary character has, on average, gone through nearly 300mil ISK apiece.
I'd like to see how the number is calculated. |

Oh, every dedicated EVE player knows that... However the _numbers_ involved are surprising, however...

Back in beta I felt the initial prices were good, and that increase in the general prices levels was bad and would never really work. Been in the back of my mind all this time, but when I hear the numbers it made me realize this is already ******, even if I never bothered to do the math again.
Basically FPS-style merc battles are high turnover of ISK, and normal play ISK/hr between the two need to be much lower. Currently it's about 30M/hour, while DUST is about 600K/hour. I'd say a 1/100th would be more fitting. |

So basically the average is not significant, the 600 trillion ISK number is so high that there would need to be an order of magnitude less non-AFK ISK coming in to change the argument. |

I'd say cut the 2.1 million mercenary number down by... first 20% (cause of same-account alts, a very low estimate compared to EVE due to the nature of DUST players), then consider that probably 80% or more just quit since it's a "bad game lol".
We're looking at more like between 2 and 3 billion per dedicated player thus far. |

I love this sort of stuff. I'm new to New Eden so learning how much has changed over the years has been fascinating. |

These numbers are really crazy. I've made about ~340mil in the lifetime of my character (assets+losses) since the last reset. There are about 200 players with more Warpoints than me so I assume they have made more. Suggesting the average player made ~280mil ISK is pure insanity.
CCP is suggesting the average player who tried dust ended up playing 1,400 matches (at 200k payout a match). Do they think we are that dumb?
If you want to value looted items then I could see it as a bit less crazy. A dropship loot or proto tank can easily be 5-10x what you get paid for the match, but I still really have a hard time thinking Dust generated 600 trillion ISK. |

Weird, dust's economy doesn't seem that big, considering the stuff I buy are only tens or hundreds of k |

I dk what I made if I count my battle loot, the 340mil was my lifetime pay from matches.
(The stuff I lost in battle + The items I've paid for in my inventroy/Current ISK) |

I could have easily gone through 300 mil isk by now, that is not including my salvage which should net another 100-200 mil |

Don't forget that's over 12 months. That's several resets and price point changes in game etc.
Plus the isk that came into Dust from the SISI bug. |
