In most rings yes. But there are some rings that are much denser with patches that are even denser, so dense you cannot get a large ship in there, and even collector drones will collide with other asteroids before reaching the small fragment you want to get.
Asteroids are at least 300m apart....
This is the origin of my whole point of view.
I can't play the game at all right now, so I cannot provide examples.
Damn, I'd love to see that. I love the idea of flying HUDless in a dense asteroid field. Or doing combat in one.
OT: I think large ships are fine for mining, as you can just have a swarm of drones picking fragments up for you and manoeuvring is not an issue at all. I've tried mining in an Orca and Anaconda, and it's pretty smooth and relaxing. Doesn't pay shit though :D
