I'm facing the Zitros and Jenza and a couple of others, they're doing alright sure, but they've already dropped 12-13 OBs....did they change how frequently you can drop them or something? |

Looks like you'll HAVE to get into a corp asap then >_<

So what are the limitations on OBs? Does anyone know?
It was just one after another after another, clearing out our spawn again and again and again >_< |

We must be playing different games. I wasn't away we could buy OB cannons right now, and I'm not sure about you, but most objectives get a whole lot of sunshine, if you catch my drift. |

Its called Orbital Artillery. Check you skill trees. And your spawn point in any map has a lot of cover! If they shoot at you shoot back at them!
Oh so you're trolling, no such skill exists. |

What you experience are warbarge "Precision Strikes", these are granted to squad leaders when they have earned enough war points during the match.
Damn, they were doing alright, but they literally just dropped one strike after the other after the other, the same squad leader 3 times in a row....did you guys lower the requirements or something?? |

There should be a cooldown IMO
That's what I was thinking, or the points from the strike shouldn't go towards the pool in order to call in another one. It just felt...silly |

Maximus Stryker wrote:you can save them up so if your squad earns its third strike and the first two went unused, that you could call in all 3 back to back to back if desired.
Yea, but there was no saving being done >_< Those 3 were just the ones dropped back to back. Jenza had to have dropped 3-4 others, then a descent number of strikes came from the other squad leaders.
Crap, double post >_< |

Even more annoyingly, I FINALLY had one myself on an ambush map, called it in on a large group hanging around the clone unit..... nothing. Didn't even fire. Possible bug?
Yea I hear you, I played maybe 5 games and I can honestly say that was the most Orbital Strikes I have EVER seen in a single gaming session, by far. And they're much deadlier now. |
