I am thinking of just droping DUST and shuffling over to EVE. I would do so, but a single problem. There are No EVE online Physical Timecards. I use cash to purchase Time for games, so having to go online to get any form of Time for EVE is extremely unhelpful. Why even sell time in Months on ETC when you could just Subscribe?
NOTE: I know you trolls will go on about how this is a DUST 514 forum. But I don't have a Open Standing account on EVE to Suggest this.

eve is based in iceland which makes it an 'overseas' purchase. gift cards won't work for it, as a law was passed last year. use paypal. easy. |

You could try to use a Green Dot card. You can find those in any convenience store like Walgreens and CVS. The benefit is that you can reload those with cash at any time at any of the stores and it can operate like a traditional debit card allowing for purchases online. |

It still would help though just to have normal game time in stores like GameStop so people like me can just grab a card as opposed to having to find this little round about way to buy time. Besides you already shipping physical copies of eve overseas. Instead of selling eve discs, sell time cards and have people install eve from your website. They are probably lighter as opposed to discs and boxes, so for time sold, so more money for CCP. PLEASE CCP! MAKE OUR TIME BUYING EASIER FOR US USING CASH!! |

It depends on how things go with setting up something like physical cards. Considering Gamestop will go out of business anyways once the consoles (except the PS4) start forcing pre-owned copies to be become overly expensive for users like the Xbox One will do. And seeing that Gamestop's primary source of revenue is from selling pre-owned games, you can predict where that's going.
Besides, you can alternatively grind ISK and use the ISK to purchase PLEX which is what Eve players introduce into the market every time they redeem a game time code into the client or purchase PLEX with cash directly from CCP. Keep in mind that the PLEX is heavily dependent on Eve players having spent real-life cash obtaining those GTC or PLEX.
PLEX is what is used to extend game time. |

They could sell ETCs wherever other game time cards are sold ( Walmart, target, GameStop, I've seen some TCs in gas stations) |
