I would hope they're left in as special convey spawns. Although would be nice if they used industrial ship models rather than combat vessel ones, and freighters for the carriers.

One would hope, and I think it was mentioned at a roundtable or somewhere like that, that they would ideally be replaced by procedural NPC haulers much like the miners here. Similar to the intent to replace customs officers with "new/drifter AI" officers similar to how the Drifters would attack anyone with an Entosis link fit early on.

IS there a dev blog or anything like the sorts in the works?
It would be nice to hear what the current plans are, regarding your new mechanics that you've started to use.

I believe he said static asteroid belts only (also why they won't show up in ore anoms, etc.)

Will the factions stick to their own regions ? ie you will only see Caldari miners in Caldari systems ? or will they move around at random?
Still no comment about taking faction standing hits for shooting at these ...... |

As per testing no faction standings loss for shooting them.
I have seen Caldari and Amarr spawns in Caldari space but not the others (note that I don't think Minmatar are set to spawn yet)

Will pirate mining operations respect player character Pirate Faction & Pirate Corp standings?
If you have high pirate standings, can you provide logistics / on grid mining boost support to the npc pirate mining fleets ?
If they should come under attack by other players, can you rep them and keep them alive giving the pirate fleet a chance to warp out? |

an Interesting and Exciting New Development, love it !
But...
Something hat has gone un-answered thus far.
Will Ore belts be getting a buff since they will be getting depleted if we dont intervene so;
- will Ore Belts be getting a buff or their daily ore adding amount increased, whichever the greater ???
Some Ore systems have really terrible ore regeneration as it is, having to wait 4-5 days for a system's belts to replenish to a full-ish amount is bad enough lol 
Please could this Question be answered at some point, no rush & a major thanks in advance :)
fly awesome :)

if you kill those npcs in highsec unprovoked they should get killrights on you and activate them the next time they see you
how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

The spawn is not definite, meaning they won't always be in the same system at the same time every day.
NPCs will scale with system security.
NPC fits are completely different, they reflect player ships much more than before. Ultimately, they're fit for PvP.
There can be overlap from different mining operations, the primary goal is gathering ore.
There is an incentive to attack them. More information from CCP Larrikin at EVE Vegas this weekend.
Some issues:
- Overview and brackets being broken is a current issue on Singularity.
That's interesting. If two mining operations of opposing factions are in the same belt, will they engage one another?

Curious about this as well. I'm wondering if we are allowed to defend friendly factions' mining operations if we see that they're under attack. Would be an interesting way to offset the difficulty once players figure out how to handle up on the warp-in fleets (because you know they will).

NPC corporations standings don't mean much in compare to faction one is this going to change ?
The rescue NPC fleets that will protect those NPC mining ones, will they have bounty on them or drop loot, basing on the Keynote we don't want them to be simply farmable for that loot/ISK ?

It seems from what I've seen, miners only spawn in systems with Corporate mining stations in them. I.E. Minedrill, Drucia, ect.
Could we get a confirmation on that, CCP? It would really help us find them if we know to look for certain stations in system.
Also, you said three corps per faction will spawn these miners. Could you tell us which twelve corps this will be? |

I believe I had an Amarr spawn in a system without an Amarr station (Caldari Space), not sure is the other stations there were Caldari Indy Corps though.

4 Astral Mining skiffs sighted in the sole belt in Aufay. Really added additional atmosphere to the site.
No, I did not shoot them to see what would happen. I was drone-mining alongside them in my Orca.

Watched EvE Vegas presentation. Mining Operations will drop random lootboxes?
CCP are you mad? If it was decided for EVE to become free-to-play, it is not the reason for using the worst practices of free-to-play. |

This is simply a step of; Instead of dropping all items inside the wreck, they will be inside a box. You can then open it or sell it to someone else, perhaps for a higher price of the contents. A gamble at the discretion of whoever opens the box. There is nothing else involved in this process.
