ok i can understand raising it from 2500 to stop abuse but 5000!! that is a little over the top isnt it..3500 to 4000 is understandable but 5000 is requiring 5-6 man squads and 1 must be a logi harvesting points from revives, heals and spawns

2500/4 (old squad size) = 625 x 6 (new squad size) = 3750. 3750 should have been the new orbital cost when the squad limit got raised to 6. We even told CCP this -- but once again CCP doesnt listen to the community until its too late. We dont know what goes on in-game even though we play it every week/day...
I only play dust514ums now. It was always more fun than the actual game anyways.

Considering obitals now hit inside buildings...yeah 5k is fine, not even 1k wp is needed by each memeber. You get squad order bonus as well. Most players in an dom or skirm can reach at least that without a 20% buff to their WP gain.
If Preparation is half of the battle and knowing is the other half, Then there is no need to fight.

Copying my post from other thread.
Denchlad 7 wrote:5000WP is fine. Myself and a friend got a 2 man orbital in Ambush. Its not that hard to get for a well oiled squad.Yes, I have noticed a lot more one sided battles (and redlines) but realistically it promotes full squads, teamwork and better abilities. You want to win? Work for it. An OB is not an insta win button. You should only get it if you put the effort into your squad and you and your squad members earn it.

I do think 5000 is too much. Sorry, but not everyone is a pro. Orbital Strikes should be accessible to ordinary players, providing they work hard for it. You think squads of randoms formed in the squad finder are going to be hitting 5000wp per match? Not to mention that this new requirement screws over smaller squads. I don't advocate returning the OB requirement back to 2500wp though. I think 4000 would be a good number. This still encourages teamwork and squadding, and it would be within the grasp of the ordinary player.
Again, sorry, but we aren't all pros.

Prefer 5000 or 6000 wp for an orbital. I've seen two man squads that have gotten three orbitals before and that shouldn't happen ever, imo.
With a full squad of pro killers 5000 isn't that much. Their biggest problem if they're stomping that hard will prolly be finding targets as peeps quit the match or retire to the passive-sp incentivized redline/MCC.

Ive gotten over 5k in an adv logi, Shayz has done over 7k in a proto. This doesnt mean it happens all the time. If I'm having the best game of my dust career, why shouldn't I give my squad an orbital? Even good logis don't break 2k every game. My avg is about 1500 or so and Im usually near the top of the board.

Same.. Not too sure what this is all about. It should encourage you ALL to squad up. C'mon its less than 1000WP each, this really is not hard to do! If I run solo and lay links I make 3500wp in one dom.

Requires a good squad effort, as it should, get a 5-6man squad and get to work..

I thought 5000 WP was a little high myself, but I've changed my mind after playing. If you're in a decent squad, it's not hard to get one or two. And it promotes team play, which is good.

One thing that is nice now with the ob being 5k is when getting steamrolled at least you dont get nailed by orbital after orbital on top of it all. |

So what you're trying to say is that a six man squad should put in little to no effort to get the strongest application of force in the game. 840 WPs ......really.....god forbid you use teamwork...that be too OP...It's fine the way it is.
416 WPs ...seriously what kind of effort is that to get OBs previously...kill like what...4 people and drop an uplink and get 4 spawns 4 assists and use a needle 1 time..huh.....lool...
Now you got to actually fight and push your opponents, not that previous garbage, of spamming

Sounds like you're against teamwork and well diverse squads...
You know, what an effective squad would be? What Dust is supposed to be focused at? |

3 or 4 people can easily get a barrage... Without a logi... Get into a squad, it's a team game. |
