Evil_Porcupine 100 Report post 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! 1 AccuNut reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Megaddd 116 Report post 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.

Halo381 110 Report post Posted March 13, 2017 At the GDC event, JC said the in-game currency would be Quanta. As in, the plural form of Quantum. 8 Soarnir, Vyz Ejstu, DarkTemplar and 5 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lights 214 Report post 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 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wardion2000 42 Report post Posted March 14, 2017 It may be "quanta" but unofficially I say we should call them "Quatloos". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Caesares 18 Report post 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord_Void 970 Report post 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AccuNut 57 Report post 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 89 Report post 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 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
