I find the idea of mining the Alderaanian system about akin to drilling for oil in a graveyard. It feels, well, creepy.
That said, if the Graveyard does go in, you'll see me there mining away.

It all depends on the tools the devs designed for themselves to aid in building content. It they've got a nice GUI, space-zone interface where it's as simple as drag and dop then, well, we better see this thing! I have a feeling, though, that things are a little more complicated then that.
Even if they don't add Alderaan, a lot of the ideas in this thread are fantastic. Different types of missions, tractor-beamable magseal containers, "ghost" ships.... all great stuff that would fit nicely in some of the zones that are already in game.

Wow this is a great idea, and the fact that noones really flamed it is pretty cool srry of track. This idea would be great in the sense it would add mining content rather then just static spawns/random spawns in already present zones. Grats to op. /signed ps...i cant spell for my life still =)

This sounds like a good oiece of fan idea, it would make sense as alderaan was a dense world, but what are the asteriods heled in place by? Gravity? i like the idea of pulling in magseals and the like, nice idea.

to add to this i think it would be cool to go the ceath star and pic up some of the debri floating around in space or just anywhere there is floating debri. like thoose dang tie fighter wings be able to pick them up and sell to a junk dealer. Also you could get enough junk out there that if a sumggler finds enough peices to a tie fight and can build it and fly it covertly and actually sumggle.

Definitely a great idea.
Even without further expansion to space (most notably having to travel through sectors of Deep Space along the established routes to get places). Hopefully this and Hoth are in the works.
