Perk trading.....
« on: May 10, 2009, 03:43:02 PM »
It would be a great improvement on the game if we could trade perks. For example your sitting in the DA and you want to 1v1 someone for some extra MA perks...you take him on and you win...you get perks :D. And what if your flying with yoursqd or buddies in the MA and wanna up some 262's. But your Squad mate or buddy doesnt have enough. You simply can give him some perks so he can fly with you. Then he could pay you back at a later time :) This would be and awesome thing if we could get it

It would be fun, but I think the last thing we need is a perk economy.  Could you imagine people trying to sell perks on ebay?   :rofl

not only...............just imagine....

Want to enter the squad, sure, there is an annual fee of 1000 perks

Want to learn how to get a kill to death or 15, sure, 5000 perks please.....

The main drawback would be major headaches for HTC.

Ever play Everquest in the old days of the player run bazaar?  Give a PC some gold for something and before he give the item to you he logs off....

It's not that hard to get 100-200 perks in a night. Spend a nigt in the 190A8, 109f, and Mossie and you'll have more perks then you know what to do with

Or find a CV furball fight and up an A6M2, perkie farming galore.

I wouldn't mind trading the perkies I earned with my P38s for some 'special' ammunitions or loadouts  ;).
<drools at the idea of MG pods on my 38  :devil>

But to this idea, no thanks. My perkies is mine  :rofl.

This has already been debated. I disagree with the idea.

As fun as it sounds, I think it is a bad idea.
