163s
« on: July 02, 2009, 11:26:34 AM »
163 gotta be the funnest plane in the game but rarely available, especially with the huge maps we now see 99% of the time. even when enemy fronts close on HQ the 163 is always at an untakable base giving enemy forces little incentive to attack.

would be nice to see it spread out to a few more bases surounding HQ. would take little effort on HTC part to achieve too 

please please please :D

IMO they should be at bases nearest to all strat targets not just HQ.

Leave 163 as it is, and restrict 262s to Zone bases.

More thrust and higher fuel consumption is what it sounds like.

It also seems to lock up faster, although I haven't flown it a whole lot.

Mabey make the 163 base "capturable", thus giving the attackers more of a reason to risk running into them. This would also give the defenders more action without increasing the 163's operation range.

163 bases were capturable once upon a time. Imagine the base right next to HQ in enemy hands, and the enemy being able to roll 163s from it. Yeah, it was as nightmarish as it sounds.

:huh

262s are already limited by their perk price.  There is no need to restrict them to certain bases.

IMO the 163 should be made available in more bases, if not everywhere.  To limit their use, the perk price should be tripled.

Considering the ease with which perks can be farmed this would be absolutely disastrous.
