After 8 months and 50+ pages of bug reporting/whining, the asteroids are still broken in the hidden belts (only in drone regions), they pop after one cycle of mining. It was announced several times by CCP that this issue has been fixed, also that we should open new thread instead of continuing others. CCP told us that we should be happy becasue we have 2 types of exploration sites, the gravimetric and the unknown. Well the gravimetric sites are still broken, the unknown ones worth another thread.
So here I am, hoping to get your attention. Either fix these roids or remove them completely and give us something that works.

I'm assuming you've been filing bug reports on all these broken sites, correct? If so then there isn't much else you can do really. ------------ ULTIMATE LAG SOLUTION IBTL! IBDS/DC! IBTC! 1st in a BoB post! And other such forum tom-foolery. |

The problem that was extensively documented and to the best of our knowledge fixed was the ore quantities in normal asteroid belts. I've never seen a drone-region-specific complaint about Gravimetric sites, and there's no mechanism I know of that could cause them to spawn with incorrect quantities, as said quantities are defined on a per-site basis and all 0.0 regions use the same sites. The only way I can think of that this could happen is that you're running into sites that someone else has already mined almost dry.
Please verify that this is occuring as you describe, namely that all Gravimetric exploration sites in the drone regions are spawning with chronically low ore quantities.

Edited by: Vort X on 24/07/2007 19:22:25 I have scanned down 3 so far, all of them had 10-15 bistot. All of these rocks has disappeared after one cycle of a T1 strip miner.
I promise I will scan one more down for a GM if they will come and try to mine these. Otherwise it doesn't worth the effort because it was explained several times now here in the forums, in the bug reports, even through the petition system.

Living in the drone regions, and mined several Gravimetric belts, and ive yet to see this. Not me, or anyone in my corp has had any problem with the gravimetric sites.

Edited by: MotherMoon on 24/07/2007 19:22:18 you know you don't have to wait the cycle for it be done getting ore. you can turn it on and then off when you want and get the % of the haul. that might make testing faster. ----------------------------------- I'm working my way through college target CCP |

I've heard of people intentionally mining out Gravimetric sites except for a tiny amount of ore in each asteroid using a Survey Scanner. I think that's what's going on here. ------------ ULTIMATE LAG SOLUTION IBTL! IBDS/DC! IBTC! 1st in a BoB post! And other such forum tom-foolery. |

In other words, please spend several more months complaining and maybe, just maybe someone on the dev team will give a flying fsck.

Just to ask....I know it seems obvious, but what size were these 3 sites supposed to be?

They were small. According to the responses, I just was out of luck then by finding 3 different sites which were already mined? Well that would make sense. I'll try harder then.

Yeah, it's a sneaky and underhanded tactic but a valid one. At least whoever mined it out wasn't waiting there in a cloaked ship. ------------ ULTIMATE LAG SOLUTION IBTL! IBDS/DC! IBTC! 1st in a BoB post! And other such forum tom-foolery. |

Yea, it sounds like that's what is going on, they're mining part of the asteroids. But, as far as I see, it should still be considered an exploit, because it is taking advantage of the fact that the sites are supposed to despawn within a day if no one goes to them. That is the bug that seems to be going around.
But yea, I rarely encounter this problem.

Asteroids still broken? To what effect? They're fine to everyone I've talked to, they look fine to me according to the database. Quote me a belt, what is wrong with it, how you would want it to be, why that is the right way for it to be as opposed to the current situation and I'll look into it first thing tomorrow or explain to you why it is working as intended.
I suspect I'll do the latter though as all the topics about the asteroids have died out (or are named something silly which didn't peek my interest).

Luckily I still have the bookmark for the last site (small bistot), It's in NEU-UD. Please note that the bookmark is from yesterday, so it might be despawned by now.

humm... 10 roids of 300 +/- 100 arkonor/bistot maximum in a medium gravi-plex in the southern 0.0 regions (-0.6ish sec) i don't exactly find that juicy either, with all the moving around *shrug* but at least one can warp freely these days - putting the gist back into logistics |

10 in a medium site?

You must have a boring life indeed if anying remotely connected with asteroids piques your interest.

Personally, I think this thread has a nice, serious name.

Edited by: Malachon Draco on 25/07/2007 08:22:14 Perhaps it would be possible to give a rough indication as to what should be expected for various gravimetric belts? Not that I've noticed a big problem so far, but in terms of managing expectations and avoiding bugreports about stuff that works like they were intended, giving a bit more info about this stuff would be good.
Lots of stuff doesn't work in the new regions like it does elsewhere. Like finding a belt with only 2 mercoxit roids, but each one being around 8k units .
