So I was watching a pretty epic video here. And couldn't help but notice how advantageous that spot on top of B was where PFBH had an uplink and Tryhard514 spawned 3-4 times.
Now I'm pretty sure links are destroyed on the ground by orbital strikes, and definitely should be by laser strikes. There may not have been a likely strike directly on top of B unless STB was trying to eliminate the couple of guys perched up there, but I didn't know if there was an attempt or not since it was hard to tell from the vid.
I DO know that I've been on that map, and OBSed elevated positions, but people (and uplinks) were not destroyed.
To be fair to PFBH, by the time Goons and ROFL had superiority in the sky it looked like it was tipping in favor of PFBH anyway, but it was still pretty close, and taking out the uplink on the top of B would have been a large part of turning the battle in their favor.
So...community...did PFBH win because of a bug/tactical error/ or a combination...? And is CCP working on the OBS strike mechanics of this? |

Yep i have in the past on that map used a OB to try and kill people up there and you are correct it doesnt work. You may also be correct that the OB not affecting PFBH may have changed the course of the battle.
I would still say that since either side had the ability to exploit this and that PFBH did it first it was tactically the right thing to do and therefore a good strategic decision on their part.
So to me since this was something STB could have done as well I say the win for PFBH is still an unstained win.
Do I think CCP should fix it though... YES |

OOOOOHhh! I see what you were getting at! I'll get around to fixing it...Anyway... So who thinks STB would have won if this bug wasn't here? Also, what did PFBH get for winning and did everyone in the corp get some or was it just the special people who got chosen to play? |

Inhuman and his uplink were destroyed once during the match. We spawned another dropship and set another one up there. Same thing would have done even if they OB'ed the uplink all 2-3 times they had an OB. |

and to be fair, that map favored STB in every way. Any other map and it would have been much worse for them. |

Ahh good info! So that makes me wonder if those missile turrets on top make it harder or easier to get another DS up there?
BTW, I think everything is going to change once we get deployable installations. |

Because they were CQC specialists? or at least that team was? |

Yes, there 2 shotguns were the only reason, we dominated their ARs, MD, and tank driver |

They were destroyed when STB called in their own dropship and killed inhuman, they never OB'ed him. You see them fail at taking out inhuman with another dropship late in the match while I was on top. |

Agreed. If Calamity and Annie couldn't carry STB to the win on that map (because they did carry the rest of them), it wasn't going to happen.
Pretty sure STB tried to get a dropship up there and failed.
I like Calamity and Annie good players, good people.
But PFB has more talent and it showed.

It wasn't "all" shotties versus your corp, Mav. It also wouldn't make sense to equip gear we weren't spec'd into versus players who are spec'd into it. Versus SyN we weren't expecting skilled SG users like we were vs STB.
We give plenty of credit to STB. We knew going into it that the battle for objectives wouldn't be an easy one. STB excels and capturing and defending points.

It's the little things like this that humble me and annie. thank you. /bow
And king Kobrah, me and annie and the stb members did fight hard, but lots of proto weapons and gear and team work make it hard to be an effective shotgunner. pfbh know thier stuff and we did all right for shotty wielders but only so much you can do against people that know how to fight back well :P
To sum up the battle,It was like fighting a pack of flipping rabid honey badgers. you know you have to try to put them down but man its hard and the suckers fight back with blinding rage. |
