I understand what your saying also, this is why you choose responsible people

Avanti

Even the person who you think is the most responsible person in the world can still rob you blind.  A couple of years ago one of our Game Masters at the company I work for had a couple of players contact him about some items and in game currency that was stolen from their linkshell.  The Game Master investigated and found who the culprit was and informed the two players.  The two players were shocked beyond belief because they thought the thief was the most responsible person they knew because they knew him in real life.  Turns out that the player that stole the stuff was the real life high school English teacher and swim coach for the two players and the teacher stole the stuff to sell so he could buy some lame sword that cost a crap load of in game money.

Well, if one earns all the perks and the others just spend them... is that teamwork or welfare?  :devil ;)

Seriously, true teamwork = Teaching your lesser gifted squaddy how to fight successfully, cover his 6 so that he can get kills and get back to base. Enable him to earn his own perks.
THAT is truely teambuilding... bonding you guys closer together than just throwing a few perks around.

this!

or, as i did when i first started, read the documentation about perks and how they are computed and awarded, I roamed around in a 190a8 for probbly 3 months looking for bombers (also big targets to hit).. or even head to a vulch with it :) land it, dont die, etc. etc. you'll have a 262 in no time..


edit:

also, dont waste em. I dont even think i flew a 262 till i had 1000 fighter perk saved up.

and i rarely fly perk planes to this day..

Same here, I don't usually have a large ammount of perks built up (because I fly fighters so rarely), and so almost never fly the 262.

but seriously who would buy perks in here to fly some plane that you would crash as soon as you upped.  perked planes are not the easiest to get kills in and you cant get the perks to fly them you cant fly them at all.

Perfect example semp:

My gunnery has to be about the worst in the game, and so the 262, with its toejamty (balisitcs wise) 30mm cannons, is not a great plane for me. I can use it, but I must get within D400 (hard to do in a 262, since everyone keeps an eye on you, and are more consistent about giving check 6's, AND there is a good chance of colisions.)

so you wouldnt buy perk points, because it would be a waste of money.  I dont relaly see how anybody would want to buy perks in this game since you would lose them really easy.

Exactly. I'm not going to blow $50 on something that will be gone in a week, and will produce no tangible results.

The same people that farm perk points are the ones that would buy perks in a heart beat.

I like the idea but without having perks reset every month, it is pretty useless.

Some of us have enough perks to lose more than 200 Me262s, it just doesn't matter either way.
