Seeing as the orbital strike is essentially just a mini gamma ray burst, of course it would go through a building- unless if that building happens to have a several metre thick concrete or lead roof...
Well said, AND something as big as an "Orbital Strike" would be pretty lame if you can just run under a structure and avoid it. Matter of factly, MANY SHOOTERS fail at not letting large strikes harm you inside structures... Tanks, helicopters and the like are dumbed down greatly, to not ruin the MP experience for others.
*cough* Battlefield....
Ever fired an Abrams tank round into a small house-ground floor only to see several men scamper out at full speed ?
