They are getting called in with far too much frequency at the moment. The WP cost for them must have been lowered for some reason. |

Agreed. They seem a little too frequent now. Got eight in the last full game I managed to play. Was with a squad doing well, but not THAT well.

There is orbital spam going on. There are a couple of other threads on it but there are at least 2 people who are some how farming WP and calling OB seems like ever 15-30 seconds. Nothing against the guys but if they're earning 5k-8k WP per match something is definitely some exploit going on, and I wonder how much SP for doing this. |

CoD/MoH/Boarderlands whiners are definitely going to be crying when their opponent has a small fleet with bombardment computers over the battlefield.
If I remember correctly, cool down time will be based on a ship's cool down timer for their strike computers. The more ships carrying strike computers, the more strikes a supporting fleet will be able to make. And if Dreads can fit strike computers, CoD/MoH/Boarderlands whiner tears will flow copiously. |

Gotta say, I agree with with him on this one. You can get a Precision Strike at about 1k of WP or so and once you hit that needed amount you call in a Precision Strike and boom. You have no to time to react to it. Some why to maybe counter strike it or stop it from happening would be a nice add in on the game or making them have like a 3 second delay instead of having a beam just beam down and boom with no delay and everyone in that area is dead with almost a for sure, no chance of getting out alive. It covers a wide area so 3 seconds should be enough time to ether hope you have a chance of making it out of the blast zone or no chance at all.

The current setup would probably be ok if people weren't farming SP at the back corner of the map with a LAV and a repair tool. I was a squad leader earlier tonight and I got 3 strikes through the match, with a lot of organized teamplay. But the people who spawn a LAV at the back and spend all their time repairing it are able to call in strike after strike, with barely a pause in between. Look at the killboards, you can spot the people exploting LAV repairs to get strikes. They're earning 6000+ war points per match, and someone actually fighting in a match might get that after an entire evening fighting battles.
This probably won't be an issue with corp vs corp battles since it means your guys on the front line are outnumbered and will lose. That said, rolling in a squad tonight it was pretty hilarious getting caught in a strike. Just enough time for everyone to yell "Ohshit! Run!" before everyone goes flying. |

Orbital strikes are a little excessive, maybe CCP could split difference next build?
The kill vs assist is a good point, the whole squad helps gain the strike, so maybe give squad assists instead of leader kills? I heard if a single player gets enough warpoints they can call one in solo, in this case it seems they should get kills instead of assists.
Borderlands is a great 1-4 person pve rpg/fps(nearly straight rpg), pvp is a joke in it. Char level and gear trump skill more then many pen and paper rpg. About as relevant to compare to dust as Need for Speed would be, few things could transfer but should play radically different. |

I think they increased the AOE of the OB as well as the speed they are deployed from the warning, they do seem to be very easy to get now also.
we did manage to avoid one last night when we were in a LAV but it only just missed us i think if we were on foot we would have died |

Yes the OBS is way too powerful now. Greater AOE.....seems like it does more dmg........easier to call and keep calling all game long....impossible to avoid unless you are in a LAV or at the very edge of the strike. You see the blue light and then just die. There needs to be a minimum of a 5 second delay between calling the strike and the strike actually landing. Because (if you think about it really) it would take some time for the msg to get to the ship...ship to lock on coordinates....and then time for the ordinance to actually hit. This should all be calculated in. I dont mind strikes like these in a game if you can avoid them by playing smartly. This is something MAG did well. You knew a strike was coming if you saw the smoke and if you stayed in the area its your own fault that you died. Smart players should have at least a chance to avoid the strike instead of seeing the blue light and then respawning. |

I was in a game with Rafiki and team. They called over 10 orbital strikes in a single game. I dont know who it was went 40 - 4 just with OBs. Saw him use his gun once or twice!
With that said not once did any of those OBs hit me.
Im just saying adapt and kill. Use the fragos more :)! |

OB's are too easy to call in. CCP needs to increase the WP requirement and also provide a cool down between strikes. The Current speed and power of the precision strike is actually great, because it can be used as an effective counter against moving vehicles. |

The way I see is the OBS makes people set fragos. Heck my squad mate last night said he never used fragos and started enjoying setting it.
There is the obvious flip side where people farm war points by crashing and repairing LAVs and using those WPs to call in OBS. All I have to say is losers will always be losers! Their fighting skill never increases and thats what matters when you are capturing objectives.
If ya wanna know how to escape OBs read my guide to it ;)!

Look at the leaders in WP, and now look at their kills. All that group is doing is what they where doing last build, CCP is just rewarding that behavior with constant OB. I bet all of their kills are gotten with OB while hiding in the red zone. |

There is the obvious flip side where people farm war points by crashing and repairing LAVs and using those WPs to call in OBS. All I have to say is losers will always be losers!

No they actually do need to increase the WP's for calling them in. There are ways to achieve a constant stream of OB's without hiding in the back of the map boosting off of LAV's. |

What CCP needs to do is set the WPs for repairing vehicles to 0 or 10%. Repairing dropsuits should be ok but not repairing vehicles. |

The points accrued from an OB's kills should not count towards earning the next one. |

Honestly that's stupid. People that get caught in OB's deserve to die unless they are able to some how evade the strike. A player shouldn't be penalized for clearing out an OBJ for his team. The problem with the OB is the fact that it's too easy to call in because the WP's required to achieve them are ridiculous small. CCP needs to increase the WP's required and add in "tactical" countermeasures which can be used to delay OB's giving people time to evade them. |

They are not small, farming 6k WP a match is the problem. The leaders in WP have almost 100k, thats in less than a day. Farming is the problem. |

That would only give an even greater advantage to the guys herping and derping around at the back of their base in a LAV with repair guns. The number of strikes would probably be ok if it wasn't for that. I think they should make it so that only a certain percentage of the points earned for a strike can come from performing repairs. Make it so you have to actually be working the objectives (ie: actual teamwork) to get strikes. |
