Back to Basics

[Bosco123]

I think I made this game too complicated. I've been doing things that I shouldn't have done, and it's gotten me to dislike the game. So last night I decided to do somthing that I really hadn't done in a wile, which I should have been doing, perk farming.
I usually don't maintain many perks, because I like to waste them all on Chogs and Temps, most of the time I lose my Chog and Temp. So I started the night with about 45 perks. What I did last night was more fun than what I had for the past three months! I gained about 100 perks in about 5 sorties flying the lovely P38J, and the 190A8. It also helped that we were down on numbers and we had a 1.02 perk bonus.
I landed kills and I got somthing that I don't usually do often, because I'm stuck in a Chog, killin at furballs. 1v1 were galore last night. I had 3 in one sortie, one right after the other after the other. Some of them I lost, some of them I got to go home with some damage.
It made me come to like this game alot again. I came to think that it was the "good ole' days" even though that was 2 years ago for me.

I think if, maybe people figure out what they did when they were still a noob, they can come to appreciate the game much more than they do now, post ing about how it's not as much fun as it used to be. I found what I did was a lot of fun, and I think I'm going to do it more and more.

That's back to basics.

Doubtful.

Not like noob noob ColKlink, but just new to understand what was going on. I remember when I used to take up a 205 and have a ball, I would die a lot, but then there was a couple times when I would land kills. Now, with the skills that I have, I can land kills more than I die, it makes it fun. You can go into a furball, and come out alive.

I was bored with EW and MW flying Hurri2c and other cannon birds, because it's too easy to kill with them.  I switched to Hurri-1 with only .303's and have had a blast for the last few months because I actually have to fly and work for kills.

Got over 35K of fighter perks cause I just don't find the perk planes all that much fun so I rarely fly em.

Have more fun in perk farming planes.  K4, G2, G6, 109F4, A8, A5, FM2, etc..... 

Although some times you nearly have to fly a pony or a D9 to catch all the runners

P38G is my perk farmer. As of now i have bout 610 perks.

What I do is pay more attention to the perk multiplyer. If its below 1.0 ill take a pony. If its above that ill go for a high eny ride to gain perks. Score is no matter. I'm trying to get up to 1000 perks for fighter so when I do lose a chog or another ride it won't matter as much and it gives me some incentive to keep that amount. I only play every few days, when I do get on its for hours at a time. I think I finally broke 400 last week. Its like saving up for the mess around sorties. In a perk plane your not going to gain a lot of perk points, its just to go clean the air over a field and have fun for me with some risk to a few points. No matter what, do what you find fun and try to be as courteous to your countrymen when possible. As for the enemy, let them die horribly.

Really?... tell me about it.

I can't hit anything in a 38. I see people land multiple kills in them sometimes and just don't get it. Might be that my vertical game is just worse than horizontal in one. The guns dead off the nose in most planes throws my sum off a lot as well.

[JunkyII]

My reasoning behind 38s being easy mode (along with Steves 51 ) is that 38s are one of the fastest planes, one of the best climbers, has great guns, and can out turn anything faster then it except LA and K4 which have also been called easy mode by pilots before.


If a 38 has an alt advantage in a fight its too easy to control a furball since it will out climb any plane that is lower with pretty close speed. Now 38 Gs are a different sorry just like the La5 compared to the 7, its just that much slower to make it not that easy. Personally I think all the F4us, 51s, and 38s should be considered easy mode unless the flying of someone has showed they actually know what they are doing because anyone can perch grab
