Author Topic: How about perk reset (Read 996 times)

How about instead do something like the way vacation days are handled at some companies. That is, at the end of each campaign anything over 1000 perks is tossed out (i.e. unused vacation days are lost). That provides incentive for those with gobs of 'em to use 'em, and doesn't penelize the infrequent flyers.

Welll, what i dont get is.... Why do those 'perk stocks' annoy you at all? Its not that theres a max amount of perkies and someone stckpiling keeps another from getting them?

I mean who does care and why if i have 1000, 3000 or 30000 perkies lying around on my account?

More usage of perks would only mean more cherrypicking Temps, C-Hogs, 262s.....

Actually, i have more fun flying the early war planes. The perkers, especially the Jets dont really hold any incentive to fly them for me..... soooo.... i have many useless perks. If i could give them to someone else i would, but alas, theyre living a happy live in my hangar drawer, rarely to see the light of day. Sad story, huh?

To put it as bluntly as posible, this idea is stupid.

I save up 1000's of perks for nights when I'm drunk, and happy and feel like turn fighting my 262's with anything that comes at me. I lose jet after jet on these nights and have a hell of alot of fun doing it. One night I blew over 1000 perks and never even made it out of the radar circle of my base.

THAT is why some of us save perks... So we can do stupid crap with expensive perk planes. Limiting the number of perks I am allowed to have will limit my fun. And who are you to tell me how much fun I am allowed to have if I can afford to do so.

To put this as politely as possible I’m with Shatzi on this.
Why would it matter to anyone how many or little perks another player has? I mean if you think about it, its meaningless.
If you feel you have too many perks just up a 262...roll onto the grass...and end mission till you are at 0 perkies. You wouldn’t even have to wait till the end of the month either. You could do this every other day and keep your perk points to a bare minimum.

if you cant earn enough perk points for a perk plane you have no buisness flying one cause your just going to crash it.

Just give each user the ability to reset their own perks to zero.

(why I have no idea, but hey, if they want to do it so it means something to them to get more, let 'em! )

Earning perks is a function of time as much as skill.

Are you implying that since I don't put in the hours to earn 1000's of perks I am not qualified to fly a 262? Somehow I think my 19 years flying these games would rule out pilot error, eh?

wow I really pissed you all off lol!

Here's an Idea.

I think we should reset our bank accounts every month. Its not fair for some people to not work at all and have no money when others work all day every day and make six figures. So, at the end of every month, the bank will reset your savings to make it fair for everyone.

What are perks?

monteini · « **Reply #26 on:** January 09, 2006, 02:11:33 PM »

LoL, how about reversing the System less experianced pilots can fly temps, spit14's, 262's and experianced ones fly p40's I know morph is gonna bite on this one!

Morpheus · « **Reply #27 on:** January 09, 2006, 02:27:47 PM »

Im all for letting newbs like you fly low eny perk planes against the likes of my 38. Money in the bank.

KD303 · « **Reply #28 on:** January 09, 2006, 02:31:56 PM »

I've just been playing for a few months and I have only a few hundred of each. I'd be might peed off to have them all wiped off.
Crap idea....sorry.
It's like telling the people they have to burn their money and live off what they can earn each month and not have any savings.
