lol. Before OB's, everyone was amazed at the E3 presentation. Everyone wanted OB's in game.

then when us testers finally got to call them in, people cried they were too easy to earn (they were)

Now people (mostly tankers/vehicle ppl no doubt) want them nerfed/removed.

my feelings on this matter: The default strike is weak enough that it poses no serious threat to good vehicle pilots/smart players. honestly, most maps have several areas that provide cover from OB. that said, the OB collision detection is kinda broken. It should collide with tall buildings, to eradicate those pesky Snipicus nests high atop buildings/rooftops.

That sound means get under something. Works 9/10 timea

The PS fired from the warbarge eliminates the need to have an EVE buddy dropping the rain. (The only working link between EVE and Dust ATM)

I feel like this strike shouldn't be available and if you want to drop a strike in you need somebody in orbit.

Or if you want to keep your anti-social strike it needs to be nerfed. It is waaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyy to effective for a free strike.

I thought EVE ships cost a lot of isk. More than a mil or two. Either way, that's not free! The EVE ships cost money, the NPC orbital strikes do not.



I don't play EVE. When I heard people talking about mining, I thought they had to go around and find minerals, and spend some time doing it. I had no idea that they were setting up mines, and had a constant stream of Veldspar deposited to their account. o.o

Skilled tankers already dominate matches they are in, unless the other team has competent AV. This almost sounds like you are asking to have free range for pubstomps. Think the PS should be kept, but lower the damage a little bit. I've survived PS's with a gunnlogi before, so I know that its not impossible.

Ive survived 6 on foot yet the tank next to me blows up..not everytime but 6 times thats a bit weird to me..lag has something to dowith it?

Ther is no warning

Take MAG and the sensor shell for APCs, incoming sensor shell and it maybe gave you 5seconds to move that **** ASAP or you lost it, same with the strafe, tower of green smoke 5sec it hits GTFO outta the way

I would at least like 5secs warning either by sound or a 5seconds light show aswell showing where it will hit

I would like to note, that on the 4 object map (can't think of the name right now) that OBs go through the buildings that cover objectives C and D. I witnessed it a few days ago, and then last night in a queue sync match. Hollow roof? Not much to hide under.

Has anyone considered the effects OBs will have once friendly fire is put in? They maybe awsome now but not so much when its your guys getting fragged also. That itself will tone them down plus give some warning.

HEY WHY DID THEY JUST RUN AWAY?

I DUNNO MAYBE WE SCARED THEM?

(OB alert sound)

OH **** THAT'S WHY! RUN!
