bio spore	Posted - 2008.04.29 12:06:00 - [1] I read a post Lingorm made yesterday in a post responding to somebodys queries about the game and one of the things he said really caught my eye. I don't want to misquote him but i believe he said there was a possibility of future systems been one big astroid field. As a miner this sounds like heaven to me and i was just wondering if anyone knew if i picked this up correctly and if this is really been considered. To add to this it would be great if you could not warp in this system because of the astroids and maybe it would take up to 10 hours to get from one side to the other. This would allow for allot of pos to be built and people would then have to jump ore in and out.
Malcanis R.E.C.O.N. Insurgency	Posted - 2008.04.29 12:11:00 - [2] fastest sustainable speed is something like 20,000m/s 1 AU ~ 150,000,000,000 meters: that would take about 85 days at 20Km/s CONCORD provide consequences, not safety; only you can do that.

Windle Poons Amarr Trinity Nova	Posted - 2008.04.29 12:11:00 - [4] System wide belts were in Exodus Oh, wait! Still AWOL.
YunFu Yan Yan Enterprises	Posted - 2008.04.29 12:13:00 - [5] He mentioned "system wide asteroid belts", yes. He didn't mean thou that the whole system is filled with asteroids. System-wide belts are what you can find in reality too. Not just tiny clusters of rocks floating somewhere in space but "rings" around the high-mass bodies of a solar system (Stars or giant planets.). For example there is such a belt in our solar system between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. System-wide belts will eventually go life when the sever-cluster can handle them and when the economical consequences are clear. ------------------------------------------------- Yan Enterprises - We mean business.

CCP Lingorm C C P	Posted - 2008.04.29 12:15:00 - [6] It was a reference to a feature that was considered but never implemented. It is still listed in 'The Drawingboard' (http://myeve.eve-online.com/updates/plannedfeat.asp). Nothing more on i it at this time.

000Hunter000 Gallente Missiles 'R' Us	Posted - 2008.04.29 12:16:00 - [7] yep, the idea of real asteroidbelts, going right around they sun were introduced in exodus, just like the comets, sofar none of that stuf made it in, allthough i think those comets were on the testserver for a while? not sure. u know they should be huge and u should have to manually maneuvre (spelling??) through the belt to get to the better roids that lie deep within, once ur inside u can't easily warp out, but as a counter others can't easily warp in as well _______________________________________________________ CCP, let us pay the online shop with Direct Debit!!!
Thorradin State War Academy	Posted - 2008.04.29 12:16:00 - [8] System wide asteroid belts would be awesome. They'd be so massive CCP could possibly remove asteroid respawns, because you would have quite possibly millions of times more ore in those belts than what we currently see in one. You'd have to fire up your special ORE-made mineral surveying systems, and it'd give a randomized list of warp-ins to parts of the belt. You could still locate specific areas (players in them rather) by using probes.
Andrue Amarr	Posted - 2008.04.29 12:19:00 - [9] Edited by: Andrue on 29/04/2008 12:21:08 Originally by: YunFu Yan System-wide belts are what you can find in reality too. Not just tiny clusters of rocks floating somewhere in space but "rings" around the high-mass bodies of a solar system (Stars or giant planets.). For example there is such a belt in our solar system between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Technically true but you won't find them like you do in Eve. Asteroid belts in our solar system (excluding planetary rings) cover a large volume of space and you'll almost never see more than one asteroid at a time (ignoring clumpings orbiting a common COG). In fact a spaceship travelling between Mars and Jupiter where the greatest concentration lies can do so with little or no risk. A radar sweep and a mechanism to give a warning would be more than enough. It's biggest drawback is that it would sound so rarely that the crew could easily forget what it meant or what it was for. -- (Sarcastic mission running veteran, 4+ years) [Brackley, UK] My budgie can say "ploppy bottom".

Rodj Blake Amarr PIE Inc. Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris	Posted - 2008.04.29 12:31:00 - [11] System-wide asteroid belts will be implemented alongside mobile refineries, comets, and planetary flight. Dulce et decorum est pro imperium mori.
bio spore	Posted - 2008.04.29 12:31:00 - [12] alright thanks for the response :)
RoninData The Bastards	Posted - 2008.04.29 14:14:00 - [13] I was talking to a corp mate about this a few days ago. The ability to setup a pirate pos in the middle of a belt and actually go belt hunting for real around many kms of roids would be an amazing slant on pirating. It would also give the miners and industrials a fair amount of protection as well I would imagine.
Alindyar Malevolent Intentions	Posted - 2008.04.29 14:31:00 - [14] Edited by: Alindyar on 29/04/2008 14:31:53 Originally by: Malcanis fastest sustainable speed is something like 20,000m/s 1 AU ~ 150,000,000,000 meters: that would take about 85 0.1 days at 20Km/s fixed.
Avaan Eclipse Gallente	Posted - 2008.04.29 14:56:00 - [15] Edited by: Avaan Eclipse on 29/04/2008 14:58:14 Originally by: Alindyar Edited by: Alindyar on 29/04/2008 14:31:53 Originally by: Malcanis fastest sustainable speed is something like 20,000m/s 1 AU ~ 150,000,000,000 meters: that would take about 85 0.1 days at 20Km/s fixed. He was right from the beginning, you know. AU "The currently accepted value of the AU is 149,597,870,691 ¦ 30 metres (nearly 150 million kilometres or 93 million miles)" Edit: Oh, and to actually add something to the thread; the economical impacts don't have to be as huge as they might seem, all asteroids dosen't need to be mineable, what's saying that they aren't made up of 100% plain rock?

He was using meters and not kilometers. He is quite right, while you are quite wrong. -------- Ideas for: Mining Clouds
