F4U-1C should be a PERK plane
« on: April 16, 2001, 10:58:00 AM »
Look, the plane is nicely rendered, beautifully flight modeled, and a balst to fly, but the fact remains is roughly 200 were ever built.  Tghe plane in capable hands can be quite deadly, but the ability to spray and pray remains, or the ever popular dweeb sport of headon rush.  Lets make it a reward to fly this beast.  Perks should be required to fly it.
I regret doing business with TD Computer Systems.

Tiffy too? It has the same 4X 20mm's.  And its faster.  Spit has the same hispano's, so does the P38L, but only 1.

Not saying it should not be perked, just giving you something to chew on.

Staga is right, do a Chog search on these threads.

BTW,numbers produced has nothing to do with perked planes in AH.

If it was rare in WWII, it should be rare in a WWII sim.  Perk it.

If c-hog was perked or removed many people in AH  might actually get a heart attack and die, so its not in AH best interest to kill c-hog, sadly....

"Perk 'em all!
Perk 'em all!

The large and the fast and the small.

Perk all the Nikkis and C-Hogs in blue,

Perk anything that can shoot back at you!

`cause they're asking to just perk 'em all

As back to their Gruppen they crawl,

There'll be constant crying

as long as they're dying,

So cheer up, my lads,

Perk 'em all!

Nobody knows if the FM's are true,

So cheer up, my lads,

Perk 'em all!"

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

Right, but have you checked the F4U-1C's ammo load lately? It's got double the ammo load for it's 4 cannons than all of the above.

Of course I'd rather have the F4U-1C than end up with one of those awful "easy mode" FMs in the same arena as full realism FMs....
