So the orbital artillery as you all probably know is when we Dust Bunnies get to fire back at the EVE ships over head, but I'm figuring a basic Dust player will not know what to shoot at most the time especially if they never played EVE. My idea is that a new weapon be made for eve ships. This weapon would simply be a laser designator of sorts. This way an eve players who knows what must be shot in space would be doing the aiming. Very much like we do on the ground.
This laser would also allow the player being targeted to know he may be shot from a very strong weapon soon so he has time to run if he can. If there are more than 1 targets being laser designated the dust player gets to choose which one to fire upon, although EVE players can designate priority targets like in EVE with a 1,2,3 etc. Also possibly the more lasers on one target the more likely the Orbital artillery is to hit it. |

Well the bigger technical issue is actually hitting an eve player.
Though i have to agree making them like pos guns is the better idea. |

Yeah, I doubt they are going to manually fire the Guns. My guess is that they are going to be large Installations that can get hacked. Or maybe Capsuleers will get the option to militarize their colonies. Thats what I want to see. |

I have a feeling dust players will target the largest ship they can if they are doing this... also since the firing back option would only be for corp battles and maybe FW it shouldnt be as much of an issue. its not like random pub guy will be wasting the shot on a destroyer. |

I don't mean to be "that guy," but I think this thread would be better suited in the "Requests/Feedback" section of the forums. |

Also yes a Dust player might shoot the biggest ship but a lot of times there can be multiple huge ships. We dust players choose where the eve players shoot because we know what we want killed, only fair an EVE players says what they want killed.

I imagine in a situation like this the DUST players will on comms with the EVE players, or there will be at least one DUST player who is familiar enough with EVE to know what to target. |

you're forgetting, CCP plans for a "nuke all" option for eve players to make the entire map go BOOM!, we deserve to have the ability to do the same back at them  |
