I think this problem transits to PvP space layout as well. Black hole was a system where one can find all types of rare ores… Now almost if not any PvP system has them all. It would be very interesting to see some orbits to be more resource specific. Having resource specific mist area is good, but there’s not much incentive to mine it when you can just mine normal asteroid ring and find all kinds of ores.

I really like how planets are made in that regard, especially Titan. Lots of magnesium deposits, magnesium crust, even the planet itself has colour scheme of magnesium ore. It was more noticeable before the green goo texture was added though, doesn’t look that pretty now.

As for black hole, I think resources there are too spread out even after removing one of the asteroid rings from it to effectively patrol it. More in my topic I made a while ago, many points from there still stand. I’m a big fan of space pvp and it would be awesome to see pvp orbits receiving same attention as planets got. 🙂

While the change is understandable, it unveils a rising problem with universe structure when it comes to engagements in space. I’l start from Planetary design to compare it to orbit layout. Golden globe is the most active and one of the smallest planets being a class 2. It’s also the richest planet made out of gold, making it the most lucrative place to mine. Planets of Homeworl…
