![]() ![]() I am in NO WAY suggesting that in game currency and real world currency should be directly exchangeable. The purpose of this exercise? For the fun of it. What I did in the original post was attempt to tie in game ISK to the currency it was once based on to attempt to achieve relation. Now over four years have passed and the markets behave independently of each other now. That taken into account it is very likely that the economies in Eve and the real world were similar back then. As the in game Economy began back in Januwhen the game first saw broad release on American and European markets. Obviously the exchange valuation would be different as the market fluctuations, inflation rates, and market valuations concerning derivatives on the Eve Market is openly subject to players activities when effecting the flow of commodities and resources. The theory was CCP used a real currency as a basis to construct the one we know in Eve Online. Okay, so what you both just replied with completely missed the point of the post. 1 Caracal Cruiser = 1999 Porsche 911 with 54,000 miles 1 Rhea Cargo Freighter = Entire Apartment Complex or Repave the M6 through London UK, or a Mansion in Beverly Hills Gotta love that exchange rate! So for a bit of fun, what do normal items in your life cost in ISK? 1 ISK = $0.01 USD = 0.00617 EUR So with that defined, I found out that: (figures have been rounded to the nearest hundredth) 1 unit of Tritanium: 4.50 ISK / $0.04 USD / 0.04 EUR 1 Bloodclaw Fury Light Missile: 119 ISK / $0.97 USD / 0.73 EUR 1 Heron Frigate: 190,000 ISK / $1,556.23 USD / $1,171.42 EUR 1 Caracal Cruiser: 4,600,000 ISK / $37,677.14 USD / 27,540.34 EUR 1 Rhea Cargo Freighter: 8 Billion ISK / $6,552,545.35 USD / 4,454,900 EUR So, with those equivalencies defined, for the same prices you could buy: 1 Unit of Tritanium = nothing ( I've lost more between my sofa cushions) 1 Bloodclaw Fury Light Missile = Baseball Card or a Cup of Fruit form your local grocery store 1 Heron Frigate = (roughly) 1 ounce of Gold or Rent a 1,300 sq ft home in Omaha Nebraska for one month. If you're going to build an entire economy, why not emulate a real one? With that knowledge I decided to research the exchange rate and I found out some fun facts when comparing prices in game market and translating their values from ISK to the US dollar and the Euro. I did do a pre-search but did not find a similar post) So, in my spare time I remembered that someone once told me that the in game currency ISK is loosely base on the real world Icelandic currency, the Danish Krone (ISK). The below amounts are on a per-unit basis.(If this topic is a repost please ignore and accept my humble apologies.
