It's late to be posting this thread but.
Who thinks Dust player called in orbital bombardments are a little strange?
Either I don't understand where they come from or they seem unjustified for the balance issues they bring.
Can anyone explain to me how these things make sense from either a practical, realistic, or balance perspective?
I'm undecided personally. It just seems odd. |

The pubbie OBs come from the Warbarge, but PC strikes will likely all come from EvE players' ships. |

I'm undecided personally. It just seems odd. No counter.
Driven for the needs of PR and spin than anything else.
Sadly, utilized to counter other game flaws.
TL;DR - The game didn't need it, CCP did. |

Is a war-barge something in orbit?
Is that just some largely unimplemented aspect of Dust 514 gameplay ? |

That's kind of my cynical impression. CCP wanted to show off orbital strikes but couldn't implement the huge amount of integration it would require in time, so they sorta pulled this thing out to show off what it Could Be Like.
Except now they're stuck with wondering what to do with it? |

The Warbarge is the waiting room you are standing in before a battle. |

They come from the MCC or an EVE ship. The MCC is the thing you jump out of at the start of skirmish matches.
I enjoy their presence in Dust. |

they should reduce the effectiveness of warbarge over time as more orbitals come from players, and to give a incentive to have orbitals from larger guns being the warbardge orbital stands a chance of killing everything up to a tank. |
