Why is it now everywhere I turn. There are offers for things in megacyte?
Is megacyte more valuable then isk?
I am starting to me more and more people offering deals in isk and megacyte.

Mega is needed to build anything worth anything.
No mega = no ships or decent guns or mods. Can't have war without that stuff.
Try camping a gate in an Ibis. Would be futile but fun to watch. --------------

Yup...this was bound to happen too. ISK will be a thing of the past soon in a trader-run economy. Same thing happened in AC1 with pyreal...eventually all currency converted to SIKs, and Smalls.

Really, isk is just a placeholder for items. So, if megacyte prices are rising fast relative to isk, megacyte is more valuble. If megacyte prices are falling, isk is more valuble. Economically that is.

Games like this tend to have inflation in their currency. To a lot of the richer players, ISK does not have the value it once had. They can have millions of ISK and still not be able to get the items they want.
Megacyte has a much more fixed value. X amount of megacyte will get you Y% of an Apocalypse Battleship. As such megacyte is largely inflation proof.

Inflation is really bad in games like this because the system is constantly generating new ISK. For all of the interactions with the NPCÆs the system just adds more ISK into the game.
This is really bad for the newer players. If they do not interact with an existing player startup is really a pain because they have to overcome the inflation rates before the can get into the game like the rest.
Maybe one day the system will take into account the amount of ISK in the game and adjust the NPC payouts in order to control the inflation.

I'm suprised that the price of mega isn't forcing universal market prices up. Almost to the point that if meg was 1 million each people would still sell MOAs for 5 million lol ------------------
