Question for the devs. Are the markets for Dust and EVE split. From what I have read this is the case but needs to be confirmed. We need a graphic Is it same station two markets dealing in diffent items accessable only by one type of player or is it two markets one ISK/One vanity money?
Yes, the markets are split. Some additional information on the EVE/DUST economy can be found in this dev blog.

Quote: DUST 514 is a persistent setting that your actions influence and shape.
How much of that "Influence" will the DUST player notice? Since they are just ground units they shouldnt care much and only the EVE player can feel/see the influence.
CCP Shadow:
The most compelling aspect of DUST 514 is that your battles are meaningful. You conquer territory working with EVE players, or you can do the same with your fellow DUST 514 mercs.

Originally by: Mallikanth Edited by: Mallikanth on 07/06/2011 07:06:38 Sounds like it could be fun for PS3 owners. A few q's if I may...
How about different planetary environments - lava, water planets etc? Different gravity? How will the Mercs get their jobs? Will they always work for Capsuleers? Own any assets of their own? How will eve players be able to interact with the ground forces, other than just hiring them in the first place(Planetary strikes etc)?
Shame I just bought an Xbox. 
These questions are going to be covered in the future dev blogs leading up to the beta and launch, so stay tuned and make sure to check the DUST website for updates.

Originally by: Gnulpie Edited by: Gnulpie on 07/06/2011 08:14:57 Some gameplay questions and how that EVE/DUST-Link will work.
- Is there a single market for both EVE and DUST players?
- Can EVE players sell items to DUST players? Can DUST players sell items to EVE players?
- I read that DUST players will be able to use AURUM for their microtransactions. Are these AUR in any way connected to the EVE-Incarna AUR (besides sharing the same name)? If so, are those AUR tradeable between EVE and DUST?
- Can we please have some more information on what DUST players can do with/to the EVE Universe? And vice versa?
Thank you!
This has the potential to be extremely awesome. And people screaming here, think. Via DUST our beloved EVE is promoted to quite some more folks, maybe some of them join EVE, so that is already a good side effect right now.
There will be two separate markets; as for the rest of the questions, they will be answered in the future DUST 514 dev blogs on the official website.

Originally by: Aineko Macx How are you dealing with around-the-world network latency? Or won't it matter because players are gonna play with blunt tools like joypads?
There will be a network of battle servers hosted around the world. These servers will host individual DUST matches and feed the data into the main EVE Online cluster.

Originally by: Dennie Fleetfoot CCP have consistently claimed that Dust was multiformat.
The console specs haven't changed. We can all assume correctly then that there has been until recently, fully working beta's for PC, Xbox and PS3.
I have not read a single technical explanation as yet as to why the change to PS3 exclusivity, that I have not heard before from other developers in similar situations. Not one.
So until we get a full public denial from CCP, I and many others I'd imagine are going to take it as read that money has been exchanged.
I've no problem with that by the way. Business is business.
To pretend otherwise however, that I do have a problem with.
From the very first days, DUST 514 was announced as a console-based game. As for PS3 exclusivity, simply speaking, we found the platform to be more MMO-friendly. DUST 514 is a unique project in many ways û not least in the way it will interact with EVE û and PlayStation 3 suited our needs perfectly.

Originally by: Gereon Valk Can't even get past the "Age Verification" on the Dust514 site. Site only working from a PS3 browser, or how could you even "verify" anything? :P
Just type your age in the box and there you go.
