pls Unperk spit 14 and perk spit 16

[Pooface]

wah wah wah, perk it because its good!!!!!

why perk the only free post 1943 fighter the brits have???? because it will pwn a few more things?? well thats what it was built to do, pwn things! stop whining, it is free and it will stay that way. the truth is that raf fighter design was ahead of its time in the midwar days. mustangs and all the late war planes are still faster, and the 16 wont turn too well. its just coz its new that lotsa people are flying it. it will calm down after a week, just like 47N

all the perk this threads should just get locked. all the same crud in them.

the 16  is really rubbish it doesnt roll doesnt climb   hope you guys dont perk it......

all figures are lies...

[Blammo]

Funny, and no offense intended, but I told a squaddie last night "Just wait, they'll be posting on the board tomorrow about how the Spit 16 needs to be perked and how it is uber and it is so unfair, blah, blah, blah..."

Well, it's tomorrow

[Karnak]

Sorry Blammo, but you were off by a day.  The calls to perk the Spit XVI started by 19:30 Pac Standard Time last night. Maybe earlier, but I don't recall.

[FBBone]

It’s been out for less than a day and you guys already want it perked?  Remember the P47-N and all the "UBER" cries that went out?  Now I hardly see them.  Give it a rest..cry :

Wouldn't it be cool if perks were dynamic and based on type of plane in the air.
Like if there certain type of AC reaches 10% of all types in the air it automatically gets perked.
For really uber planes, like jets the value could be set much lover like 2% and early warbirds would be always free.

must you make sence all the time? STHU

I doubt if they will perk the Spit 16.

It is a very good airplane.

But it isn't as good a ride in the MA as a LA7.

It turns well at speed, has nasty firepower, and turns well on the deck.  Flown right, it will be tough to beat.  But it isn't going to outrun a fight like a LA or a Dora

None of the above is enough reason to perk the Spit16.

Although, come to think of it, those reasons were  enough to perk the C Hog.

But then, I don't think there are any real emperical standards by which HT perks any ride.  I think it is more a game-play issue dealing with how HT envisions he wants the arena to run.

*cough* goes vertical far better than even the Ki84 *cough*

*cough* 5000+ fpm past 10k *cough*

*cough* turns like a spitfire *cough*

*cough* rolls like a 190 *cough*

*cough* beats almost every plane in acceleration *cough*

*cough* armed with 2x50cal and **2xhizookas** *cough*

*cough* not only can it chase down most planes, once *cough* it catches them it can easily kill them in the vertical or in turn fights *cough* with no effort at all *cough*

Spit14 is perked. Spit16 will be too. The spit16 is almost identical in most "uber areas" and even better in roll rate than the Spit14.

Krusty,

It does not climb at 5,000+fpm.  It doesn't do that at sea level and it certainly doesn't do that at 10,000ft.

[Krusty]

Well without WEP its pegged at 4000FPM. [EDIT: That's all the way to 10k, too] *WITH* wep who know?! 4750? 5000? Very little difference. It leaves almost everything else far far below and chowing on dust. I exaggerated, but the result is the same.

So which of the LW birds you want to perk Krusty?

Quick to perk the Spits.  How bout the 109s?  Bet those are underperforming from your perspective too

[Krusty]

You show me a 109 that needs perking and I'll agree. So far none have shown anywhere near the qualities of the 16.

Even you have to admit the spit16 is as good as the 14 in every area (speed difference is minimal), and better in roll rate. The 109s, it seems, got their effectiveness drastically reduced (losing gondolas on 2 planes, losing 30mm on G6, E4 rolls like a pig at all speeds, all 109s roll like pigs below 175mph).

Show me one, and defend why it needs perking.

You can't just say "If you want to perk a spit, then you have to perk a 109" because it doesn't work that way. They are not correlative. You might as well say "You want to perk a spit? Then you have to perk the La7!" -- in which case you might have an argument based on performance.

its the pilot not the plane   and the challenge is finding the balance between the two.........

its a game and lets have fun playing it.  

Just dont perk stuff because poor pilots  can't deal.
