What kind of a sissy would fly a "perk" plane?
« on: January 08, 2001, 10:23:00 AM »
Seriously... what kind of a dipshit would fly a perk plane against the fairly well balanced planeset we have now?    What is the point?  I honestly don't know.   The only answer I can see is less than flattering so... give me some reasons that make sense.  If we can give our perk points away I will... If not... I will just let em do whastever it is they do without using em.

I find it kind of suspicious that the ONLY plane in the whole plane set that could even be remotely considered to be a perk plane...is the Corsair-C    Imagine the chaos that would ensue if the P-51 were perked.

BTW, ever notice that, even with the multi-adjustable view system, the Corsair STILL has the WORST 6 (and 5 and 7) view???

It's the Anti-Navy Conspiracy, I tell ya...

AMEN brother. I hope they are.

On the other hand, I'd love to save me perk points to have a fun sortie in an me-262 (hunting goons of course, its the only thing it'd be good for *grin*)

I'd love to fly these advanced aircraft to see how they compare to the one I currently fly.  I don't know if I'd try real hard to ensure I didn't get shot down.  I guess it depends on wether you want to push the aircraft to its limits, or make sure you don't risk losing it.

My fear is that more people will fly them avoiding any risk as opposed to really using them for combat.  I think this will drive a wedge into the community if it becomes prolific.

Only time will tell, however.

I know this...

Anyone who DOES fly and kill in a Perker better have .squelch 1 turned on. The amount of smack that is generated from this will be boundless, like space itself.

Lemme provide some Ch 1 appetizers:

"you chawg dweeb! cant kill like a man, eh?"

"any dweeb can kill people in that f16, moron"

"so-and-so, you are a perk loser! what, do you vulch all day so you can fly that thing once? enjoy it while you can!"

XX.. won't just be the victims.

What is someone to do against a faster, better armed and more agile aircraft?  Point your nose at him and hope he's dumb enough to go for the HO.

I wonder how many perk planes are going to have to start the fight by avoiding an HO.

Lets just perk everything that has canons, or more than one cannon.
