Stars Landing and Motherlodes: in 10 bilion years the Sun will turn into a solid crystal ball.

One time feature:
- first you would pancake since gravity would be bit higher than usual 0.02g
- but right after you would burn to crisp due to high radiation

Apart from that, why not.

We should die every time we make a steep turn with a dirty drive engine then ;)

Apart from the mining thing, it would be cool if stellarforge would be updated to introduce these new elements

Heh, that's not a bug, that's a feature!

My exploration Clipper can't boost, luckily. But before gutting that she could go 470. No big deal right? Until you realize it's m/s, then in km/h it's almost 1,700 (!). 0 to 1,700 km/s in what - 2 sec? That's some serious g. We should appreciate more our flight suit designer.
 
I doubt, that sol would turn into a crystal ball.

Why? She's simply too small. After about 4.5 billion years, she turns into a Red Giant and after she fusioned every element up to O (Oxygen), she will stop generating energy and will slowly burn out, like a piece of campfire-wood. There will be nothing left but a small white dwarf, consisting of Carbon, Oxygen and a bit of Helium. After another couple of billion years she will turn into a black, cold piece of matter in fact a semi-giant pile of coal.

We'll see in the next 10 bilion years who's right! :D
 
It really is a shame we don’t have black dwarf stars yet. Imagine a black dwarf orbiting a binary pair of red dwarfs, glistening in the light. It’d really be something to drop out of hyperspace and see a gigantic diamond in front of you.

Challenge accepted. :)

No, really, according to physicians and geologists, ( I know Geology is not science (Dr. Sheldon Cooper)), Sol will never be a giant diamond. Okay...it's pressure would be enough, but Sol is simply too hot to generate stable carbon-crystallisation. Unfortunatly.

Even a straight line in my viper would crush my organs

Whether diamond or coal, it would still be cool to be able to land on and explore some stellar remnants.
Though in either case, like shiro mentioned, the gravity would probably flatten us. :(

Dude we can land on 9G planets already.

Who knows...in a couple of billion years (as long as we STILL not managed to fragg ourselfs) It MAY be possible to land on 100G+ Bodies. ;)

dude, do you think a stellar remnant would be anywhere near 9G? probably closer to 900 or 9000G. :)

A human can't really survive 9G IRL.

My point is we're talking about a game where gravity went outta' the window years ago.

Sure, we couldn't survive the radiation either, and a host of other things.
But this game does a pretty good job of simulated gravity. Landing on a 9G planet is a tricky endeavor. Multiply that several thousand times, and it would be absolutely impossible to do in the current game engine. Could they change that? Sure, it's just a game, they can change whatever they want. But it really wouldn't make a lot of sense.

Humans can survive at 9G, here is the evidence (of course with a specific suit)

I know most of you won't understand what he says but hear how his voice struggles in steep turns. Still he talks anyway!

Can he survive under that force for an indefinite period, or just a few seconds?

We're all over-thinking this anyway.

Elite is no different from any other SciFi, and that's okay.

As far as I know: Technically yes...as long as the suit is connected to a water supply. The suit that the pilot is wearing is called a "SAGE": Libelle Selfcontained Anti-G Ensemble. Every Eurofighter-Pilot is wearing them.

Basic functionallity: As soon as high-g maneuvers are kicking in, the suit presses water into the leg-comaprtments to prevent the blood rushing from the head to the toes, preventing a blackout. To prevent a redout, the suit presses the water into brest-compartments.
Also the pilot have to train "press-breathing" to provide the body with oxygen. Thats why he is wheezing.

BUT: This suit is designed for High-G maneuvers and not for the gravity "provided" by a planet.
