I believe he said 'For certain planes'.

And RPS has been in use in the AvA (ex-CT) this year (every now and then), the people who play in there have seemed to like it. Especially this current setup (BoB --> Rhine 1945) has attracted players in there.

You presented 2 stories of sorties that you had where a P-51 and a La-7 killed you, trying to say that if they were perked, you would feel a whole lot better being killed by them if they were perked

That's all you baby; I never suggested any such thing. You are most definitely just trolling.

E25280 understood clearly.

All of you make some pretty good points specifically the more training one. It seems everybody here has put the guy who gets killed by certain planes thing in my mouth, i'm just tired of seeing the same planes over and over and wonder if the gameplay of this game will degenerate such to the fact that it will become intolerable and their will be a time where there will be such a small amount of planes being used and the tactics being used, that it becomes uninteresting. Uninteresting for some interesting for some. I hope this game doesn't degenerate into an arcade game, it really wouldn't matter i'd just get another one. My scores are not as important to me as the people who have seemed to go in my personal records and bring that up as a matter in this discussion. It doesn't really matter one way or the other for me it just seems as if the gameplay is a bit ridiculous sometimes and hope it doesn't go any further that way, That's all. I never tried to suggest any of this stuff you people are saying

I'm new to this online game thing it's scary to me that a bunch of adults act so serious about something that doesn't matter and that it's hard for people to comprehend your real point. It doesn't really matter one way or the other for me it just seems as if the gameplay is a bit ridiculous sometimes and hope it doesn't go any further that way, That's all.

Led it is all to easy to look at what kills you the most.

You have 52 deaths to the XVI and 33 to the N1K2 .

So yes an assumption is made that's why you want them perked.

Like I keep saying go to the TA and pick an easy plane to learn in.
All the rest will come with time.

Led, you'd do better to stop playing the victim all the time. Enough with the crying about how "you are so suprised about how some act etc." IMO.

Rolling plane set works in AvA because you expect to log in there and be limited. In the MA that is not the case and thus a RPS would suck. People go to the MA for a lot of reasons, one is to fly whatever plane they want without being limited. I understand Perks and ENY limit somewhat, but nothing like an RPS would.

Both you and E25280 need to read better.

One more time ... here is what you said ... and what I read ... pay attention to the BOLD part.

"Both instances were all my fault & it wouldn't have mattered to me if they were flying those planes after paying the few perks they would cost when they killed me."

So ... I infered from that, that it bothered you that they killed you ... but it wouldn't have bothered you if they had paid a "few perks" to kill you.

Yep, MA would only suffer from such restrictions, I wasn't even suggesting anything like that for the MA. It's fun as it is, IMO.

Slapshot, you need to comprehend what you read as a whole & stop trying to take a few words out of the middle of a sentence. Here is what you're doing; read the bold part:TROLLING

I can tell you almost with 100% certainty that you will keep seeing "the same" planes over and over.. etc.

The top 5 planes consistantly make up ~35-40% of the planes flying around.. out of the total number of planes.

The top 5 may change from month to month (not as much as you'd think.. the Spit 9 started out as one, then the best Spit was found to be the 5, so it took the 9s place, then the 5 was nuetered and the 16 introduced, etc), but there will always be a top 5 making up 35-40% of the kills.

So yea, I think your choices are A. burn out on the game (usually takes at least a year), B. join the horde of Spits & La's, or C. join the horde of spits and La's and burn out anyway.

Your right Urchin, whatever, it's not that big of deal, i was just wondering, game is fun anyway. This thread sure seems to be going on a long time lol:)

Hehe I dunno...I've seen some Rookies and Bishops flying that high lately =P

E3 was good but no one game stands out and makes you say "wow". I was though seriously disappointed by the lack of Booth Babes this year. I guess political correctness has finally hit E3 =(. My girlfriend did manage to get some invites to an after party tonight that is going to have MC Mike play...wonder what he'll sound like without the other two Beastie Boys. All in all, E3 was fun...nice to see old friends again.

So....if I start flying LaLa's, Spities, Typhies, and ...apparently... Yaks

almost exclusively, there are people here who will be in such a frothing fit over it they'll suffer themselves a mischief?

I'm in!

If you want "more realistic" combat, join the SEA or AvsA..... snapshops, FSOs, escort.... pretty even matches, and a nice change of pace from MA.

For me, I'm not a great fighter pilot, much better in a buff... but when flying fighters in MA I pick the tool for the job.

On defense: ack is still up, VH spewing little GV's all over, I'll grab a Yak or Kia-84 and defend the airfield up close. Try to draw the vulchers in for me or my little GV buddies to swat, and generally try to keep the runway clear for lifters. (That's If I'm not dropping field supplies or gunning my quad-50 against vulchers).

If ack and VH flat, lot's of DeeFire Mark-16's buzzing overhead, heck yes I'll grab an La-5 or La7.... preferable from another close field... and B&Z them..... Maybe a Typhie, if enemy GV's also a problem. Or a Temp if price right and enough fellow defenders in area.

Hunting sub-orbital buffs (and I'm one often enough myself), used to be Ta-152, but the radiator in it is as vulnerable as a Typhies, so I'll try to get a Jug up there if there is time. Bf109K-4 if I'm scrambling to get high fast. Sometimes G10 or G2 with gondolas if I need cannon.

Escorting buffs.... Pony or Jug. JABO flight and vulching, Pony or Typhie.
I'm very rarely in Spits or the navy planes. German planes I take for interceptor roll. I almost never fly Hurries (or Lancs for the matter).

Having fun in a furball, C205 sometimes.

Fly what you want, where you want. Not having fun, move elsewhere or try something different.
