Evil_Porcupine Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 So, as you can probably tell from the name of the topic, is there currently a confirmed name for the in game currency? I feel like this information(if it exists) should be more widespread as currently I see it refered to as many different things, even by myself. Also, if the all seeing all knowing replies section does not know of any definitely confirmed (citations for sources please), may I suggest that as a community we start referring to the currency as GALACTIC UNITS (or units for short). If this post gets enough up votes which would suggest that we do need to decide on a currency name if one doesn't already exist, I will put a poll out on the forums with suggestions for the name, and let the community take it from there!

Megaddd Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Galactic Units is straight cheese. You can rest assured much thought will be put into the naming of the most commonly used assets. For instance, in Eve, ISK stands for InterStellar Kredits. Makes sense, and rolls off the tongue nicely. Coming up with equally strong names and acronyms is not as easy as it may first seem.

Kuritho Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Dolla Bill Y'all But in my opinion, the money will be usually DACs and in-game items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halo381 Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 At the GDC event, JC said the in-game currency would be Quanta. As in, the plural form of Quantum. Evil_Porcupine, Violet, Zamarus and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lights Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 unless theres a mass scale vote to change the name of the currency, it will remain quanta as stated by JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wardion2000 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 It may be "quanta" but unofficially I say we should call them "Quatloos". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caesares Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I am almost certain that they have decided for there to be one central currency. How it will work, and it's name remains a mystery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its name is not a mystery we know that we have two currencies Quanta and DAC xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caesares Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Its name is not a mystery we know that we have two currencies Quanta and DAC xD Totally knew this Thank you, I had no idea TBH, and thought what I was saying was true... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Void Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 The currency will be called "Quanta". And DACs are not really currency, they are more items that can be bought and sold, or used to barter with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AccuNut Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 So, next question is: what will the symbol for "Quanta" look like? I would guess it will be some kind of fancy letter "Q" but it would be nice to know for sure. Ah, well...small issue. We will probably see some ideas for it in update videos.

Begogian Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 How about something like this? Any of them can be altered or changed. Just took a couple fancy Qs with the top money symbol designs.http://imgur.com/BqgDovY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
