I have a question, if I have for example an EVE account and a DUST one would I be able to send isk from my DUST account to my EVE account or vise-versa? |

Yes I expect you will be able to transfer ISK between your Dust merc & EVE pilot. Although there will have to be limits as to how much ISK can be transfered from EVE to DUST as the ISK produced in EVE is & will be on a totally different scale to that amount made in DUST.
Otherwise the DUST economy would be totally overrun and battle outcomes would be able to be fixed. Actually I think there is an argument to be had that no ISK or Aurum should be able to be transfered from EVE to DUST. |

I could be wrong, though didn't Dust 514 have a kind of battle points system what determines what kind of hardware your able to deploy on battlefield?
Also having a fat wallet in Dust 514 probably does not have such an overpowering effect than many of us currently suspect.
You could have a lot of ISK in Dust 514 and spend it on lot of hardware, but what does it count when your opponent bring friends in orbit . Having ISK in Dust 514 will probably just allow you plan your battles more tactically and develop winning strategies. |

The way I understand it Dust and EVE will share corps. There is simply no way they can hold to two standards of wealth. It gives us the power to talk down to the Dust players but from a realistic perspective that's no way to help Dust succeed. Console players are people just like us and they have far more alternatives than PC gamers. They don't need to log in and be treated like underlings and they won't. |

I don't see why DUST and EVE economies can't be reasonably similar. It's quite expensive to constantly create new clones, arm and armor the clones, and DUST players will die a lot more than capsuleers. Hopefully a great deal of vehicles, ordinance, etc will be deployed and destroyed as well, driving the cost up. |

I think CCP's vision is of a lot of overlapping mechanics. We all hope that this will culminate in dustbunnies dying by the thousands at the whims of capsuleer corps, fighting over stations, PI facilities and moons. Might as well have capsuleer industry building and selling the DUST modules. The scarcity of the components and changing demand plus some competition will set the prices.
If CCP does it right, ISK (and AUR for that matter) should be worth the same in both games. (Although maybe 1hr of DUST gameplay doesn't earn you the same as 1hr EVE.)
If you put on a costume, arm yourself, and kill people in the name of your god, you're a terrorist.
If you do the same thing in the name of a flag, you're a patriot. |

Dust get more Aur per dollar value for more flexible pricing options for items.
4k Aurum used to be $20 worth
Now its 40k for $20
So instead of a 10 aurum gun. the price would be 100. Yet allows more price tuning like making it 95 per.
Eve is still 2,500 AUR for $15.
Isk ratios is much much different in dust because unlike eve, you are dieing (average player) about 10-20 times in a half hour- hour because its strictly a gun game. In Eve a bad night can be a single loss. That's why its dirt cheep in Eve terms because of exceptionally high turn over. |

I would have to say yes, do to the fact that you cant buy Aur with ISK in dust like you can in EVE and you can not transfer Aur if I remember correctly. |

Yes, but when you have players of equal skill, it would be quite an unfair advantage, especially if it doesn't have to be earned. |

I agree, but with first person shot on this type of platform, they will die faster and more times then any eve player, and with each lose they will need to repair or replace any item they have. which in turns will cause DUST bpos to rise in ISK and the ore value will go up. The clone may also go up because of planet side fighting in eve. I will believe that ISK in Dust will be of same value as EVE becuase they will be buying the stuff from Miners and Indy. So for those Indy pilots out there this would be the time to rack up on planetry equipment bpos befor they go skihigh. |

Yep, got my billions lined up, like soldiers and ready for action. When the Dust514 goes Live, will be shopping like a billionaire - in style  |

I think the fact that skill points are accumulated both passively and acitively in dust will make it more balanced even if some Eve players drop a few hundred million into their wallets. My only real concern is that dust experiences huge inflation which will make it much harder for the casual player just to drop in and out of the game. |

DUST514 is playing on the same player driven demand-supply economy like EVE, so it will balance itself out nicely.
New players need not to worry as they have their cheap faction provided equipment on constant supply from all Empire factions.
The stuff what's having more influence or tactical edge, will probably be player provided. As Dust514 is in itself a huge ISK sink, there's no need to worry that ISK flow from EVE is going to effect the ISK value too much. Time will tell... |
