Then i want a cloak of invisibility, a quiver with never ending arrows, a flaming indestructible sword and................?! Perks are over rated and under used i agree. The only 2 things i'd agree on adding with HUGE perk values would be extremely rare planes that did get into the theaters of operation but never had any verifiable combat service or very limited service/numbers. Also special types of ords/guns as stated. As an example B29 or the king tiger tank, 1000 perks or more just to up 1. In other words a formation of B29's would cost you 3,000 plus perks. Standard ords only though no nukes!! Sorry but that's just going a tad overboard.

the problem with you is that you are all saftey sallys...

Stop purse swinging from the tree limb...get down and dirty..Turn fight that Tempest...De akk in that Jet and Jet bomber


Poepl who say ..whaaaa I have too many perks and actaully fly perk rides..are way too timid

I underdstand that You are "flying the plane how its made to fly"....Duuuh..thats why its a perk ride... it out performs all planes.....

But get dirty...it makes your heart beat a bit faster when you do a few things the plane was not meant to do...and survive...or not

Once we get the perked ordnance system (if it's still in development that is) then we'd have something worthwhile to spend our perks on.  At least, that's what I'm saving my 100k perks for.  Tried blowing perks a few years ago on flying nothing but the ME-262 for a tour but ended up gaining perks instead of losing them.

That's the thing, once you reach the stage that you are good enough to earn that many perks, fly the perk rides will just get you more of them.  This is why they should perk the P40B so that we could have the pleasure of flying a challenging ride, and wasting perks at the same time!  So that some don't whine, we could have two P40's listed for this purpose.  One unperked, the other perked.  Might as well let the P40 E be the same for those wanting a better early ride.

False: Perk planes do not necessarily out perform all planes. It's the pilot behind the stick. I've seen idiots fly tempest's and i've seen great sticks fly em and there's a big difference. The good sticks can take that thing into the middle of a huge pile of enemy and pick em apart. The idiot is usually a cherry picker who makes 1 mistake and dies then whines for 5 min on 200. I have at least 3 squadies who i know love to go down low with a 262 and fight with it but they know what they are doing. If i did it i'd be dead in less than 5 min.

Why not make it so that you can't earn any perks at all while flying/driving a perk-ride?

I have enough fighter perks I can killshot myself on a squadie in while in a Me262. :rofl



For those that cant get perks heres the trick. When you log on switch to the country with the lowest numbers and roll a mossi. Most sorties I get 30-50 perks. A tip, go after LA7s, nikis, spit16s first.
