How would you feel if starship strikes in faction warfare and pc were 1000 war-points, or 1250 warpoints instead of the current 2500?
The eve pilot still has to risk his ship to show up and it takes but one enemy ship to send him running. I figure a wp discount would greatly encourage he use of starship strikes verses the current precision strikes and reward pilots when precisions are possibly removed in pc and fw. |

A squad with a logi would get a ton of ob's leading to qq on the forums. |

enemy squad with a single frigate can put a stop to it, imo. |

except WB orbitals are going from fw soon. the incentive to bring eve side support is that. without that support no amount of wp is going to help your side. there are proto teams out there who have no link to eve so they will suffer and so they should |

I see where you are coming from, though, so how about 2000 wp? A discount to keep the eve side interested without the entire sky falling all the time |

Hmm, good point. I might have to join FW eve side just to be at planets to drop obs. |

i dont know if you know how eve FW works but likely you will not be able to drop orbitals alone. chances are you will meet an enemy fleet or at least someone out there in a combat ship waiting for people at contested planets. this is low sec space after all so its not just enemy factions you need to watch out for,its pirates or corps with a NBSI attitude. |

In FW strikes have been taken out of you hands, er our hands. it is up to capsuleers to earn strikes not you. the wp system was stupid anyway. |

CCP confirmed at Eve Vegas 2013 that they will do just that. They did explain the mechanics on how it would go. |

no you earn the WP which then allows a eve orbital to be called in. so its not out of your hands. its just a team effort for both parties to be in a situation where they can work together effectively.
edit. seen the post above. didnt realise or hear about them removing our input. |

Well, they're not removing input entirely. Eve pilots may be able to earn the orbitals via a timer, the Eve pilots will still depend on the mercs to give them coordinates.

no way. most good squads can do 1000 wp per person. do you really want to see 12 to 15 obs per match? |

personally it makes more sense that way, they got the guns why wouldn't it be up to them to earn them?
