Dude, calm down. It's not like orbitals are the whole objective of the game. I haven't dropped an orbital since like early 1.7.
My first solo OB was early 1.7 in a basic gal scout with a basic breach shotty and basic knives w/ a compact nano hive... dies alot but still worth it XD

Also OP: what this ended up doing was making team/squad play actually meaningful compared to near constant (every 3 or 4 games) solo OB's by these proto squads, FOTM's, or logi's that repped and supplied all game. I f you want this then fine... become head of CCP and just be a person who promotes that all, even scrubs, should get solo OB's if they exploit or stomp all day.

I see what you're saying but I think it just widens the gap between organized and disorganized. The 5000 WPs were implemented to slow down OBs from better players wrecking weaker players. The adverse effect is, better players can still get 5000 WPs while weaker players won't even have a prayer to get up to 5000 WPs per squad. Should we care bear just to make things simpler for the novice? I think not Dr. Watson.
Of all the time of Dust the matchmaking sucked and even though there were many different opinions on how to fix it CCP never listened. So I say and said before that you would have to become the worlds greatest masochist/sadist combo ever to play this game until it dies or gets fixed...

I see your point - it does - i just don't trust anyone will actually reach out to each other to improve and want to grow in this game. How often do you see new talent enter PC and actually do well? It just doesn't happen, no one is involved enough to want to grow to that level starting from scratch when people like me are running around with nearly 40mil SP spamming Gunlogis, Pythons, and full proto suits, and with more ISK then I can spend. The lack of newbie guidance to explain the HUD or how to even use vehicles and OB's makes the learning curve all the harder on the newer guys, and now they've lost more ability to compete. I think the hit this does to the new players is a bit much. Really needs to be reduced by at least 1000 WP
I don't think i've ever been in a PC... I take that back since i've been in only 1. I also don't trust many people but the few off the top of my head like Heady Murphy, Attim, and CEO pyrex because i've ever squaded up with them a few times Heady and Attim more though.
As for the reduction i'm a bit iffy because of the fact that if I get then there's the ultimate satisfaction because I usually don't run in stomp squads with proto stompers or exploiters and rather just end up leaving the group because of their playstyle. You know like that moment when you get your first solo OB or a rival finally killed after many losses? That's just an example of why i'm iffy about it. If you don't get it let me know.
