rather then just "found" salvage after a match. why not just scatter it around the BF? I could see that working. those that don't want to kill all the time, can go treasure hunting.

*or mining*

yeah that too... mining sounds so boring tho...

Mining is boring, but hunting miners can be funny

more lonely targets for us scouts

...or dropships

You are my gunner, you have to prevent them from hunting my dropship :D

Cute, slight problem though, asteroid minerals can only be mined in deep space, so you would not be able to mine it on a planet, it reacts rather violently with oxygen. But well done none the less :D

That's it guys, you found it. Our secret feature has been revealed to the world.

(Great video, love it!)

It's an interesting attempt.I hope that the DUST will be greeted by a future like this.

(...)The future is awesome!(...)

A NOTE ON THE FUTURE
A little while ago CCP Praetorian posted a dev blog describing Uprising 1.2 which you can find here. One of the things you might hear a lot about is how CCP is focusing on the core game systems. While this is true and we fully believe it is the right course of action, it does not mean we are abandoning features or content already out there. Even now while looking back at core features we are looking forward at what is next in store for Planetary Conquest. Before I continue I want to be clear that there is no timeframe or scheduled release for anything I am about to talk about. We just want to give you guys a peek inside of what we are thinking. While there is no release date or schedule for this stuff here are some things we are actively working towards:

Separating clones from being the profit maker in Planetary Conquest.
Introducing a new "thing" to do that generates resources which EVE players care about.
Said thing should be something anyone else can come and interrupt, preventing your generation of resources and taking it for themselves.
Separating the battles that conquer planets from the battles that generate resources.
Building the EVE link by letting EVE players move resources for DUST players.
Again I cannot stress enough that there is no schedule for the above stuff, no designated order for what will be released first, but those are the things we are talking about and trying to work towards for Planetary Conquest.

I also want to reinforce that we will be continuing to watch how Planetary Conquest goes, continue to monitor graphs, numbers, database stuff, logs, and all the assorted things relating to this feature to help us continue balancing in the future. This is not a balance pass then walk away until new features thing. This is something we will continue to monitor and iterate on

If this is not trolling, i can't wait to start mining miners. Just wait to they find something good, kill them, and take their materials.

You can find minerals with the active scanner and harvest them with a laser rifle!
