The top scores in the last game,
the guy with 1479 Called in two

Not only did he not have enough for two, but the 855 guy im 99 sure he wasnt in his squad because there was another play in his corp on the same team.

Some orbital glitch i dont know about?
Also they were back to back like 45 seconds apart

Saved up 2 maybe and just used them?

The problem is that they have less than 5k WP combined. I've seen this a couple of times as well, and it makes me wonder if it's really 2,5k WP for an OB or if it's like 2,3k instead or something.

Scores at the end of the game can differ depending on ping times. I've seen games where when comparing the scores at the end, there is slight difference in kills (never deaths) and wp, between 2people looking at the same scoreboard.

There is definitely a glitch surrounding orbitals. I played an ambush game where the opposing team, very unsubtey, called in 4 OBs back to back after earning only 2500 WPs. I personally have no idea how the glitch works, but I do know that it exists.

Oh no! That Cipher guy called in 4 orbitals in a skirmish with only 2 corp mates on his team! How can they do that when they only have 8k wp between them!?! How dare he play with friends from other corps, that make up the rest of the SP you're desperately trying to account for.

Your original post is based on too many assumptions.

you have no idea who was in the squad

also if a member of his squad left the battle before the end his WPs would not register on the end score screen

Getting the WPs is possible, however like I said, they very unsubtley called in 4 back to back. I mean literally as one ended another one began. They did this until the match ended which was not very long. I am not quick to call foul play, but upon inspection of the scoreboard, the entire enemy team did not have even 5k WPs, let alone 10k WPs, and for the most part had been losing the match up until the squad got to 2.5k. It is foolish to pretend this glitch does not exist.

On a side note, it was not SI or any of its affiliates that used this exploit.

I wonder if you accumalate 2,500 WP then call in your OB and then you make a new squad in games it gives you another OB?

Worth a shot.

Dear players,

Today DUST 514 will go offline for an extended period of time starting from 11:00 GMT. Server is expected to come back up at 11:50 GMT. Today we are hotfixing the Orbital Bombardment War Points drop exploit that was discovered and reported by our players via petitions.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

well without proof of it theres nothing you can say about and personally i don't believe you sat and count and pick out the squads of the enemy team and watch to see if any left and what not so you are just guessing at what you think happened.

Since you say the post by CCP Frame, I am guessing you realize by now that proof had been collected and submitted already. And yes, there are those of us who do actually sit there and watch the small things in the game. Not everyone in the world is a sensationalist.

CCP collects their own data but without a place to look its a needle in a hay stack... still sticking to what i said about you not looking and making a guess becuase its highly probable.
