They now allow small/medium ships to collect from planets as long as the land is flattish... SRV is only needed to activate the pylons the ships can collect directly from the ground now... This for example allow a DBX to collect items with out SRV as long as they are allreay exposed...
but a relog or exit and reenter the instance has always been required for fetch missions as the game engine does not spawn planet items while your looking diectly at there location...

Not so much about how you collect the relics, belly rubbing or srv, either way, limited number of sites, and relics per site. I hope Im wrong but the impression I got was that we would be tasked with gathering relics to be brought back to a somewhere. So as a 'community goal' it will pretty much relegate players to solo mode and menu logging to reset the ruins ( yes as it currently works ) in order to avoid tripping over other players trying to gather the same handful of relics. Not to mention the obvious opportunity to pew pew ships and SRV's in open, which would probably send anyone doing it to solo as well. So the 'community' would be less about the co-op gameplay and just about a total collected # column. Unlike other gathering material events like station construction, that at least presented some opportunity for actual group coordinated gameplay, that scenario would seem to push it the other direction, solo. The former weekly CG spots drew players together a bit, for better or worse in open play. The hinting was a bit vague and I'm hoping there will be something else to it than just gathering relics en masse in solo play, which would be pretty disappointing. The story line idea is great, but only if it leads to some interesting gameplay. Fingers crossed...

Interesting,..vague but interesting. Sounds perhaps like a grind to land, recover and transport relics etc..Make some loot and repeat!
Could be an interesting experience not to mention picking up more Guardian MATs if not already maxed out!
