LOST a 262 casue of OF the SERVER CRASHING!

Nice sequence SOB. My last 262 ride ended much the same as yours; i had buzzed around killing 2 or three unsuspecting planes then found buffs. As i closed on a 17, I lined up, steadied then pulled the trigger; closure rate was fast, way fast. I expected the 17 to explode, but something wasn't right, my guns had gone quiet. I quickly checked the ammo indicator, it was now zero and a split second later i rammed into the buff. pieces parts was the end of that run!

Used to be that a disco = half perk points lost.

Haven't seen anything to the contrary.  Quit whining, it's only a game.

If they haven't changed it it was disco with no damage = 1/2 points.  If you had any damage you lost 'em all.

Thats a good point.
If you only lose 1/2 points with no damage then why should you lose any?

:rolleyes: :lol :p


My take on perk points...don't need more than 100 to fly my F4U-1C and F4U-4. :D

Jets are for wannabes so stop whining about lost perks. :aok

Because the program can't tell whether it was a true disconnect or you pulled a griefer move by pulling the plug on your modem to avoid getting killed.

Jump in a Spit V or a Hurri IIc and you will have more than enough perks, in a short amount of time, to roll another 262 out of the hanger.

Yea, I did what bocko did recently...turned a nice Me262 into an air-to-air missile.  Ammo goes quick in that ride

After a few days of C205 flying, I had enough for another.

Hell I lost 3 or so in the last month or so to CTD's (which thankfully I have sorted out now by adjusting RAM voltage).  At least you got to see action :)

Fly an ENY 40 plane for the smallest country and you will have all the perks you ever need.
