Is this a new 
Bug?
I've been to several systems with Outbreak systems but no HGEs!

HGE's are rare....
finding any convoy beacons in any of them?
if you are in Horizons you do stand a better chance of finding anything. imo

I Have Odyssey.
And my Information say HGE for higer Materials.
They are rare and they also have to be Outbreak in the controlling faction, better snagging a different material like Core Dynamics (try 32 C Piscium) and trading out.

they did extinct but did find few times around sol
Yep they do, i restocked Pharmaceutical Isolators a few weeks back, took 3 hours to find a system (just checked and its changed now), but they are out there.
As i said though better to farm other G5s and trade.
O7
any good at combat? if so, kill a few condas. they drop PI's often
your info is right, HGE is for higher grade and I can see you have 8.
I ask about the convoy beacons because if any happen to be in an anarchy system, they are ready for picking....also lots of good materials.
that aside specifically hunting PI's is something even I don't do(no need to) as it is one of the rarest things to find in an HGE
I prefer to hunt HGE's for nothing specific but I do it in an anarchy system preferably in war or civil war any state other than none really.
this raises the odds considerably for getting between 2 and at least 5 other g5 mats
and if they are not what you need, fill up anyway and go see a material trader
anarchy aka independent has proto mats, so right there is 2 g5 and 1 g4
if it helps one of my favourite systems to center my search from is Asphodel. it seems to always have a few HGE's
p.s.
if you use eddb.io and search for factions instead of systems you will get better results

I bounty hunt btw, so if I am picking up mats , I end up at a trader way to often.
I build and engineer ships continually...as in I have many hundreds..
so I go through engineering mats like crazy, but they also come to me like crazy because of bounty hunting.
I would add that as I mentioned, searching independent systems increases the odds from that choice alone.
otherwise if I want Imperial Shielding(Imperial) or Core Dynamics Composites(Federation), I could look in imperial and fed systems
but independent only signifies proto mats here = 2 g5..
the other factions in that system also have a say in what mats show in an HGE
so you can still get lots of both fed and imp g5 mats too.
after that the most important factor is to always pay attention to your nav tab for uss's when flying around
any system that has none or maybe 1 or 2 still has rng, but to me it is no good if it is often this way
if you pop into a system and it has 3, 4, 5 or more and is almost always this way, this is a good system for HGE's
and then scanning the nav from normal space, as intended usually gives a nice full page or more.

With this kind of shopping list no game is fun.
Why dont you buy a ship... Try it out. Do some engineering of materials you actually have (like G3 it). See where you think it should improve. Aka take small steps. Not this huge leap of obtaining zillions of materials. Engineering and finding out you dont even like flying said ship

Also PIs are only used for one blueprint, G5 dirty drives, so it's not something needed in massive amounts all the time..
And transporters in anarchy systems?
if you are referring to freighters like t-6, t-7, t-9
yes they are in any system other ships are
which is also why I asked if you had noticed any convoy beacons in any outbreak systems
the convoy beacons appear when a system has outbreak, they are filled with haulers, t-6's, t-7's, t9's that are filled with sick people.
in anarchy system you do not get in trouble if you shoot them and collect all the mats.

I've always find it more likely to find HGEs in high population systems.
THAT has been changed.
At least that was my last information.

it was a misunderstanding of USS's in the first place, imo.
the BGS was changed and uss's got changed too, intentional or not. for the better.
the single most important thing was always do the USS's spawn at all, or mediocre or average or heavily
once that is determined, then you can use higher population system that are average or heavy to find HGE's but it does not seem to change the odds at that point.
but considering RNG is a key factor, the biggest thing is always finding any systems that spawns more than none to 2 on a regular basis.
my home system is actually over 6bil, and almost everything is close to the main star but every time you fly into the system, it is 0 to 2 USS's
no matter what you do it never gets more than 5-10 after scanning the nav. the odds of getting an HGE there are close to zero.
and I know many systems like this.
many systems in the area and other areas that have tiny populations have 10-15 uss's almost every time you visit them, before you scan the nav.
interestingly, they always have a few HGE's
when others were first telling everyone how important the population is, I was finding hge's in large amounts in tiny systems.
my fav was and still is an anarchy system that almost always has lots of proto mats.
population is like 3,500
amazingly on one of its depleted potato planets where polonium is 0.6%, it is amazingly common there....
the jist is there is a lo and a hi range for RNG
right from the beginning of Horizons, spawn rates became noticeably controlled per system, this never changes. except by state but the affect is more about material change than larger amounts
