pretty basic idea that might be fun, in one of the sectors that has a large plaent in it...replace the planet with a massive and very dense asteroid field...(2 or 3 times as dense as the biggest ones currently ingame). the effect would be almost like a labyrinth. some roids could be stationary others might spin. it would make for some great and challenging PvP or racing...and down the line it could have other uses...ie, if its on a border of Serco/Itani space fighting over resources, there could be nation missions to patrol it etc...etc...

I would love to see this as a barrier around the WHs of Deneb. Would need to be, oh... 3,000-5,000 meters thick.

YES.

fyi there are already sectors out there with very dense asteroid fields, just not in commonly traveled sectors! Also, just as a side note, the sectors I refer to have massive lag issues (probably cause my machine is slow?) and are completely useless for any form of pvp or racing =p

i know about those sectors that waht gave me the idea. "(2 or 3 times as dense as the biggest ones currently ingame)."

Very large, dense asteroid fields are coming, but they will be coupled with fogging effects (radar extenders will be usable there).

If I made extremely dense asteroid fields, beyond a certain size, most of you would have to upgrade your computers. Maybe to one that hasn't been made yet.

The density of most/all asteroid fields in the game, as well as the layout of the fields, is going to be updated. We actually discussed this at the past meeting. 2x-3x is not unreasonable. But a really dense field 3000m thick might be uhh.. a bit slow.
