Is there a way to know except run like hell and hope you don't die? I haven't discovered one if not, I think maybe there should be a way. |

the only way to tell is if you have to respawn 2 seconds after it lands |

No they do.... friendly one's will not kill you, that's why it would be cool to know if it's friendly or not, if not you're running for no reason. |

Precision Strikes go thru the majority of the enviroment, now.... or C & D on 4pt Skirmish has a skylight....could be the 200m range on the splash damage for the strike though.
Simple solution the attacker is red, the defender blue....the strikes should be too |

if you look at the overview map you can see an incoming friendly one with a symbol (If I remember correctly). But that's still valuable "running for your life" time if it's not friendly... |

I was going to mention this, but it's only the case if it's coming from your squad. A friendly in another squad won't give that message, but at least it helps you know if your squad leader says he's going to call one in, and one starts coming down but there's no message, it's someone else's so probably don't stand in it. |

It should be some kind oflike a warning, like a comms voice saying Incoming orbital strike at your position, take cover. |

It would be cool if the voice announcer said something like "precision strike in: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1" or something. |

I do agree with this, but the fact that they don't it would be really useful to know if it's friend or foe. |

You can't outrun it unless you're already on the outerparts of the blast radius. I don't even bother putting the wear and tear on my L analog stick |

Hmmm. Interesting point you made over there. That would explain why I got hit twice by OBs last night! |
