Well now that Capital ships are out. Horah!.... they require an ENORMOUS ammount of Lowends..
yet our ability to mine is still topped out.
Currently flying 1 Covertor with Max mining skills 10 harvesters in my hold. 3 Modulated Strip miner 2's with tech 2 crystals..
Im maxxed.. cant get anything better or train another skill to make me mine faster/better. Ive been playing this game for well over a year now and the "Thrill" of mining has faded from my once crazy mind that somehow liked sitting in an asteroid belt for 13 hours a day..
What im looking for?.
At a bare minimum new skills.
A skill to further increase Mining lasers Pull per cycle.
A Skill to Allow ore to be Compressed in my hold.. IE. 10 to 1 compression so that i dont have to use Jet cans. I can just jam pack my barge's hold full. (remove jet can mining all along?)
What I would be estatic to see.
New equipment.
*Wide spread beams*. (Any asteroid in range say 20k will be automaticly mined if that type is selected) Ie. If you select veldspar. this Wide spread beam will mine any veldspar in its 20k range. (Changing targets every time i pop a roid sucks)
A *Uhaul* Type Ship/attachment.
A simple cargo container that Only large barges can Tow/deploy as basicly a 15k m3 Compressable ore cargo hold that you can put ore into. (new jet cans but allows for extreme compression of ore for huge sums to be held)
These are just some of the Ideas Id like looked into. Futher You can check my thread in the Features and idea section on "New mining ideas" where many members have posted their thoughts and ideas there.
Thanks for taking the time to read.

How about maybe implants to increase mining yield??
Or maybe even t2 BARGES!!!!!
OMG 4 SM2's and HAC res, with 10k cargo!!!!
As much as I would love to see this I doubt its on CCP's priorities.
But how about maybe introducing gas harvesting or even comet mining.
There are plenty of gas clouds by complex deadspace, and deadspace missions

a new skill that reduces cycle time by like 5% per level.
And new, Heavy mining barges (like what transports did to industrials), with another high slot, and decent defences.

How about a mining barge with a built-in refiner?
It should cost a lot and the refiner only works with the barges lasers but that would provide the compression you are looking for. It would also provide a juicy target for pirates

What I would like to see is advanced Ore Scanners. Where you can set scan range, filter ore type or ammount, view by ore ammount or m¦.
good discussion

a skill to extend miner range would be good and perhaps a mod that icnreases mining amount/cycle time like you damage mods.
I also thinkt here should be more named mining stuff, shadow serpentis miner kinda thing.

Since ORE supposed to have created the Mining barges then an
ORE Strip Miner as named cud be good, have similar mining amounts as MSM II but reduced cycle time.
Dual Beam Strip Miners? take twice the crystals but pull in twice the ore in same cycle time.
Mining Laser Operation skill? Reduce Strip Miner Cycles times.
Or even named Mining Crystals, pull in more amounts than Tech II crystals.

I've always thought Duvolle labs should create a Drone-Mining Barge
No turrets or high mods, 2 ships, where as mining barges are ranked frigate/cruiser/battleship, the drones would be in the range of destroyer/battlecruiser (just so its different)
Both would have +1 drone per level, and also +10% drone mining yield per level as well, super heavy drone mining ships ftw!

Thousands and thousands of systems.... not mined because no one has the will!...
Give me the power to do so.. and I will bring home the veldspar!

how about a mining "mothership" of sorts...
capital class (jumpdrive even)
not able to fit anything
moves at a snails pace
can't jettison
and most importantly refines at most 50% with perfect skills
no?
I <3 you.

I particulary remember something called Gas Cloud and Coment Mining on the features list of Exodus, here we are SoonÖ after Exodus release, new huge patch....what happened to it? oh and what about the system wide belts also?

Yay, give us some new mining stuff
I'm a bit bored playing with 2 large barges.
*Selena 001 has an idea... Dreadnought + 3 stripminer 2's... Like a barge but BIGGER!!
OMG, I'm a genius.....

I'll see what of this we can easily do without programming. Skills, Tech 2 barge, Implants and such is quite straightforwards.
If comet/gas stuff was straightforward and didn't require intensive programming, it would be in already.

Signed. We need some mining love. The only thing that keeps me interested while mining is my bottle of Chardonnay and a web browser.
WE NEED A CAREBEAR PATCH Too many "wtfpwned!" patches imho

Now that would be awsome,
A skill like Vacuum packaging, High capacity ore storage skill or something like that. Heh let us pack 15k worth of ore in our holds.
Make it only work with barges and actual ore not refined ore and make it a high lvl skill as well.

Hmm, would be neat to see some Eve lingo in use, gravitron pulse liquid emulsification module, chop up the ore and turn it into soup for more condensed storage
Dont mind me I just wandered into the thread :D.

Ore specific skills? How about this:
Astroproctology
Specialization in mining Hemorphite ore. 5% increase per cycle when dealing with hemo roids.
Sorry.. sometimes I just come up with the worst kind of jokes... I started thinking of them "hemo 'roids" when hunting npcs in a belt and hearing a commercial for hemorrhoid medication on the TV, which was on in the background.

Its called a dominix, with a full complement of drones and MDCMIIs its smack dab in the middle between medium barges and large barges. And it can tank a battleship spawn while doing it.

One function I would like is a meter of some sort that tells you how much ore your miner has pulled out of the roid so far. When you hover your mouse over your miner/minerII/strip miner it will display the current amount of ore already pulled. That way miners who use barges will not have to worry about wasting 3 minutes on a roid that has 3 units of ore left in it.
Also specialized ore mining skills would be nice. Kinda like the specialized skills for refining ore, but for mining.
Veldspar Mining Specialization:
Specialization in Veldspar mining. Allows a skilled miner to utilize mining equipment at considerably greater efficiency. 5% Bonus to Veldspar mining yield per level.

I must say, there does need to be more mining skills. I also got 2 accounts in barges and with 1 in a large/can use tech 2 lasers where to go now?
"*Wide spread beams*. (Any asteroid in range say 20k will be automaticly mined if that type is selected) Ie. If you select veldspar. this Wide spread beam will mine any veldspar in its 20k range. (Changing targets every time i pop a roid sucks)"
Would be very very very handing in mining would maybe like to see that done
Also like the skill that lets you like compress the ore.
