CCP you say you want to encourage the EVE/Dust link but yet you don't include the two things that could actually make it meaningful... Not to mention you took the time to change how orbitals are deployed but its going to be a giant headache to chase that interaction...
DUSTMERC: We are dropping in on District v hagendos system. . EVEPILOT: Holy **** I'm 15jumps away ill try to get there DUSTMERC: No worries you have 40seconds till we deploy EVEPILOT: ........... DUSTMERC: 10mins in, Where are you at we are getting demolished wish we had our TEAM with us.. EVEPILOT: I'm here give me 3minutes to capture this satilite DUSTMERC:....... EVEPILOT: ok I'm in team chat waiting for orbie! DUSTMETC: sweet thanks just called it in.. EVEPILOTS: Oh **** I have company give me a sec the satellite is neutral EVEPILOT: 3more minutes ok I'm back my company brought friends nothing I couldn't handle.. DUSTAI: MCC DESTROYED EVEPILOT: AWW sry guys lets see if we get one close this time DUSTMERC: District III fawaffle system EVEPILOT: 18jumps....... Hey guys, good luck I'm going to go run some plexes....

This is a valid criticism. Let us select FW districts, CCP. |

I agree with team deploy. I agree that being able to pick a system would also beneficial for orbital strike support. But combining the two wrecks havoc on any semblance of match-making making it impossible in some cases. You designate full team deploy in a system of space... Now you have to sit and wait for someone on the opposing faction to do the same... Have fun waiting.
Right now the situation is more like you queue up for FW, you get into match, random EVE pilot sees the battle is happening in their local system or happens to see it announced on some FW chat channel that I hope the different factions were already smart enough to have created where DUSTies announce when and where district battles are occuring. Then random EVE pilots see the announcements in that channel and go to the nearest district that they can support.
You won't get the specific pilot you wanted, but you will get A pilot from your faction.

Team Deploy should have been a must with this new FW update. Oh well SoonGäó maybe.

Ideally..
Although I haven't fought on the EVE side FW for awhile now but I think the number of pilots with out Dust intreset running orbital support is slim..
The district select is definitely needed to tighten the bond and help build alliances especially with PC 2.0 in the works this could be a stepping stone to building the Dust/EVE connection..
Maybe hold off on the team deploy till they come up with a better way to match those districts. . |

Absolutely. Both are necessary for a serious FW group to work with EVE pilots.

Also you guys need to stop calling it district select, instead "constellation select" makes way more sense. See why here:

You must be a very small person... And you're also correcting CCP ?
We aren't fighting on a solar system we are fighting on "Districts" its an obvious that we are fighting "IN" a system I don't believe CCP needs clarification in fact CCP has called them district many of times when discussing FW plans. .
But hey if it makes you feel like a bigger person to correct a term used by many then keep shooting champ.. |

TEST shall rule the FW zone! We have OB support most of the time we run in squads. |

Hopefully, these are slated for release in 1.9 or 2.0 (ideally, 1.8, but I don't see that happening). I am mostly happy with the new FW (boo, PC keeps warbarge and we lose it? WTF), though I too want to be able to select districts to attack with multiple squads (cross game squads would be phenomenal too, imagine merc and egger in the same squads, it would truly epic)

I thought about getting into fac warfare in EVE for this and then I realized how daunting it would be to get to a district. It would be nice if there were "Fronts" so those hoping to drop OBs could at least be in the correct constellation.
The Ellecon's come from a long line of Gallente. Tarn chose Peace. Tallen chose war.
