I will never ever see a perk ride, and couldn't care less.

OTOH, management of the fleet is tied to perk points; now there's something perhaps you folks have missed. If Gilligan has more points than the Skipper, well, they are off on a 3-hour tour.... and boy, will the weather get rough!

Point:
Only people with tones of flying hours will have perk planes.
Counter point:
Why would people that fly more have any greater access to perk planes as a % of their flying time in normal planes then anyone else of simular skill?

Point:
Perk planes will Unballance the arena.
Counter Point:
Introduction of more uber planes will unballence the area if there is no check to there usage. HT, Pyro, Me lots of people with money to spend are interested in late war planes. How to introduce them if you think the RPS is gona wreck your game?

Point:
People flying perk planes will fly in some special way that is so cowerdly and gamey that they will wreck the game.
Counter Point:
People will fly the best way they know how. If you gained your perk points in the Hog C how you gona start spending them flying like your in a Mustang or a Spitfire..Best news for all of us is a Niki pilot flying his perk like he is in a Pony.

Point:
The Perk system seems to be turning into an anti popular airplane system. Instead of a Anti Uber airplane system.
Counter Point:
The voting public is well qualified to decide the capabilities of an AC by chosing to fly it over others.

Point:
Current planes should not be Perked. That will ruin the game for people that are playing the game cause of those planes.
Counter Point:
Anyone that says they took up online gaming because they wanted to relive the glory days of the  F4u1c or the N1K2-J is lying. They are flying them because they should be perked but are not.

Point:
This plane or that plane or all planes should be perked.
Counter Point: I think that planes should earn perk status. By being in the MA for a tour. That way people in the know will be able to help test the FM and stuff for new planes in the best way possible..In the MA.

Point:
Perks will cause the sky to fall.
Counter Point:
Too late, the sky falls every week here.

regurge.. what i do now when I see an "inferior" plane is to try and kill it.  This may be "hypocritical" save for a couple of points.   right now... The set is pretty evenly matched with, at the very least, their is the allmost certain chance that my slightly "superior" plane will be countered by a large amount of planes of equal or slightly better abilities.

Second..  The person in the "inferior" plane is in it by CHOICE.  for one reason or another he feels(and he may be right) that he will prevail.   If he is wrong he can allways try whatever plane he feels is better.... Same as the rest of the players.  What could be more fair?  What could be less fair than the idiotic perk system?   You would really have to stretch to come up with a worse one.

What's not to like? It's not implemented yet.
