How to gift ARX?

Martin Shepard · Dec 20, 2020

Hey there,

my girlfriend just started playing ED and I wanted to do her a favour and gift her some ARX. Is this possible? Or can I only buy it for myself?

I looked into this a while ago, I was actually going to gift arx to the winner of competition I ran on here, and simply put you cannot gift arx, nor buy a paintjob/ship kit etc as a gift :-(

Can you not give her some cash? Not at all meant sarcastically, as it isn't possible sadly, like Jay says

What if it's a long-distance relationship? He would have to send the money by post.

Good point. Maybe just dump her and keep the cash...?!

Joking OP!

Kids these days. If I bought my wife Arx I'd be getting a ribbing from her about it for a whole year. Mind you, she doesn't play games (little lone ED) but even if she did, she would expect me to use my imagination and buy her something tangible.

At this time, it will not be possible to gift ARXor Game Extras (purchased with ARX) to other players.

I think that it's our concern what i gift to her and what not

What has this to do with "kids"?

You must live in the USA. More advanced banking systems enable money to be transferred between accounts in minutes by giving an electronic command.

You tie her up first and put the cats ears on her, then the tail with the "Special" applicator, then choose if you're going to use the spacecat outfit or the schoolgirl alien outfit before loosening the bonds enough to get the chosen play-suit over the straps and restrai...

Sorry, answering the wrong thread.

Nae bother on my typically to the point answer, its a missed opportunity on frontier's part, but the current system simply doesn't permit gifting ARX/paintjobs etc....

On a slightly different tack, picking up on "What has this to do with "kids"?" Absolute yonks ago when I used to be an active powerplay sniper, we were flying one evening winged up, voice comms over discord, one of our quartet announced they had to go AFK, we were like "cool - see you wen you get back", an hour later the dude came back and said "Sorry about that, had to go and have a chat with the wife" - to which my regular wingman responded "oh so that's what the kids call it these days"

Perhaps PayPal would help?
