Will "Perks" stop the whining?

[discod]

What do you think?  I think it will help put focus back on gameplay for a lot of people who prefer to fly the types of planes that I always shoot down in my "dweeb C"  

Only problem is that even though they will be rewarded greatly for shooting down superior planes...there still reamins the problem of shooting down superior pilots in superior planes  

I'm looking forward to Perks because it will add a new dynamic to this game that I think it really needs and from a scoring point of view I think it will help even things out quite a bit....but we'll have to wait and see what happens to all the whining  

[Westy]

 No idea. Probably not.

 I think it will add another facet to the fun, that's for sure. Fun to fly one of those planes and fun to hunt a bastidge down in his.

For $30.00 a month you should be able to fly whatever plane you want.

Instead of doing "perks" do separate arenas for eras of planes.

Naw discod, they're going to be incredibly more pissed when that damn bastard HOs/warpkills/vultches/shoot's on rtb that shiny new plane they saved up for.  Man, I can't wait!

[Jigster]

I have a feeling that that more and more people will give into the HO-whiner bandwagon when they get their uber rides shot out from underneath them.

Oh ya, and the Zeke and Spit V soaring in popularity not for the point bonus, but gun baring ability.

"Will "Perks" stop the whining? "

Probablity not but they will still be fun. Which would you rather have, more fun or less whining?  I know my answer

Now hear this, now hear this:

Whining will never stop.

That is all.

[Dinger]

Will the whining ever stop?
You can never stop the whining -- you can only reduce the volume of it.

Hey how aboot a Perky Whine?

As John Paul Jones said, "We have not yet begun to whine!"

The perk system will cause an enormous amount of whining, tirades, and account deletions, but somehow the game will soldier on.

The really bad thing ahout the perk system is that it will become an addiction within an addiction for some people.

Truely, multiple arena sets with different planes are the way to go in the future but it takes time to grow into that.  Even then perk planes still retain a good deal of usefulness.

Oh no! Another AH addiction to worry about!  Just don't tell my wife    

[gatt]

Eheh, sometimes I think that PYRO & Co. have a lot of of fun reading about whines & whiners   Perk system? Can of worms  

[Citabria]

Aces High more addictive than it already is?

isn't that illegal? or at least the equivelant of inhailing 10 pounds of crack rock vs regular cocaine?

I for one am scared
 

[Duckwing6]

only whiners who're not satisfied with what they have and who want to have them uber birds need PERK  

I got my D-HOG already

Disclaimer* i think it's a good idea

Expect me to whine a lot when the perk system arrives.

Hear the words "gamey", "sell out" and whatnot from my lips. And "no level playing field"

Right now when I take off I know I'll be facing some dangerous opponents. I also know they aren't impossible to beat and I know where their weaknesses are.

In comes a handsomehunk Spit XIV. Sweeps through our squad formation. Oh yay, even if he doesn't shoot us down, there goes a full squad mission with tactics coordination planning and all.

Perk system might bring about the fall of some squads here in AH.

Because of what I've mentioned.

I *really really* think it's a bad decision. Going there "because it's there" is wise if you're a mountaineer but doing it knowing it'll upset at least a good deal of the existing supporters of a cause is not good.

Oh btw; sorry about doomsday speech; I just found ou I have an additional exam that I must pass and cannot postpone as I had planned. 500 pages of economy. And a software project that's absolutely tedious (administrative systesm , WOOOHOO). As a result, for the next 30-40 days my AH time will be significantly reduced.

 

And then the perk...and then....<cries out in despair>
