Triple Station Cash Sunday the 4th

[Rolfski]

Yup, just bought some to support this game :-)

Can you use Station Cash for subscriptions? I thought you use to be able to in EQ2, perhaps in PS2?

EDIT: Doesn't look like it... I just went through EQ2 sub and I couldn't find a way to use Station Cash. Must just be using code on the card or something. As you may be able to tell I have never bought a card before.

They didn't sell alpha squad for Station cash because the discount lower SC's actual value (people tend to stock up during sales like today). For the same reason I expect them not to sell subscriptions for SC.

Hey I'm selling stock for Enron right now, I'll give you triple the amount to anyone that buys right now!

Now clearly it will have some actual game value vs that little comment, however, its a really dirty underhanded move by SOE to push the selling of station cash without actually sharing anything about what its value will be.

Hell, I want to get in on this deal, but the non sucker side of me, really wants to call bullshit.

SOE: Give us your money, for virtual cash, on sale today only. How much will it buy in game? Who knows? Just buy more more more to make sure you have enough.

Get a grip...PS2 isnt the only game that acceps station cash.

They just added "Krono" for EQ.

Similar to EVE PLEX.

I really like the way sony is thinking, I think further down the line when we see outfit owned and manufactured bases. If they wanted to they could start implementing a player economy, Smed has already mentioned that mineable resources may happen..If modeled somewhat after EVE, these resources could be used to make better weapons that would have to be purchased (think T2), I think that would really deepen the sandbox, even if these higher tech weapons were only able to be used on the continents where the player owned bases were (0.0)
