So I have a sneaking suspicion that a yet-to-be named feature in Tyrannis will be ring mining, which is to say, mining the asteroids that for the rings around gas giants. Why? Well, first of all, it goes with the general theme of planetary interaction. Second of all, Ring mining was mentioned under the "right after dominion" discussion during the keynote of the 2009 EVE fan fest. Anyone agree?

Theres no sign of it on Sisi, its due out the 18th of next month. and as of right now whats on SiSi from Tyranus is a total cluster**** of buged if not broken code as far as Tyranus goes and frankly whats on Sisi would not qualify as a pre-alfa build.

This would be the feature that some suspect has been intentionally kept off Sisi to surprise us. -
Did this sig become irrelevant while I was gone? Let me know! |

If there is a feature deliberately being hidden as a surprise, I sure as hell hope it's population mechanics and other things to make PI actually fun.

Population control isn't that hard, just let us nuke the planets form orbit... ________________________________________________

Doesn't look like we get that with Tyrannis, maybe in the next one. ________________________

Aren't so e asteroid belts in some systems parts of planetary rings? And what ever happened to comet mining? And what's the deal with the food on interbus flights?

Typically an asteroid belt orbits the star, not a planet.
Comet mining would be pretty cool.
Do NOT ask for the kosher meal on the Interbus flights. Just trust me on this. --Vel

No rings around Saturn. Nor around Uranus. Poor Neptune. Let's not leave Jupiter out!

Rings around planets are comprised of dust and ice particles, not asteroids. De'Veldrin would be correct. Asteroid belts orbit around the star. Asteroids that get stuck in a planets orbit are called moons. Your drawing of Uranus's rings is just that a drawing.

Picture from that fail site, Wikipedia.
It's believed the belts are made of ice but it's never been proven or disproven. The one thing that is certain is that Uranus' rings aren't made of the same material Staturns rings are made out of.

Woah lets back up a minute, Wikipedia != fail. How else are people supposed to write papers in college? --------------------------------- Pillage, then burn. Everything is air-droppable at least once. There is no 'overkill.' There is only 'open fire' and 'time to reload.

While those are very lovely plantary ring systems, they are not asteroid belts by definition. They are plantary ring systems. Say what you mean. --Vel

Those are all lies! Everybody knows that asteroid belts are stationary in space and get replenished every day. If they are not mined one day the asteroids in question will grow larger and larger. These are the facts!

comet mining maybe. Could be tech 3 frigates and destroyers to Signature - CCP what this game needs is more variance in PVE aspects and a little bit less PVP focus, more content more varied level 1-4 missions more than just 10 per faction high sec low sec and 00 |

asteroid belts do not orbit planets, ring systems are just tiny bits of ice and rock and various other moon/planetary ejecta with perhaps some large clumps of accreted crap.
Individual asteroids that orbit a planet are called natural satellites/moons, like phobos and deimos, but not all moons are asteroids, and indeed it would be possible for a moon to have it's own ring system.

That would be a sight wouldn't it? A ringed planet with a ringed moon orbiting it?
Though, I expect that eventually the planet's gravity would spin the rings off the moon due to acceleration as the particles came around between the two. --Vel
