To touch on the assist topic... nothing is more annoying than shooting the wing off a plane and then seeing some guy hit him on the way down for the asist or kill. I have often wondered if there was a way to stop that. Anyway, maybe the award of perkie cost to the guy who shot them down would make the guys fly those planes less. As a Bish, ENY seems to be an issue, some times, and it sure would be cool when you blast a Tempest with a spit V to sweeten the pot with some way high perk award. I have to admit the above post is spot on, all someone would have to do is fly by a furball in a 262 and they would pull lots of guys who are more interested in the perk award than attacking or defending. Hooah.
