Messerschmitt Monday no perkies?
« on: November 30, 2010, 07:45:08 PM »
I have a idea that everyone will like. A day like "Titanic Tuesday" but only for no perk costs. That way we would be able to fly perked planes and get shot down without losing any perks. Besides the fact that everyone would be flying a 262 it would give those of us that don't have experience in perked planes some training for future duels. Now this would not just be for planes but also for tanks.

So do you want a no perked day?

Titanic Tuesday doesn't effect the settings of the game.

A no perk day would be a lot of 262s flying around HOing each other.  Isn't jet week coming up in the AvA soon?

If you want to practice flying perk planes try it offline or in the training arena, also you can go tot he furball lake.

If you want to practice flying perk planes without having to risk the cost of whatever meager perks you have, you can do that in the Training Arena or offline.  When you've think you've reached the point that you can chuck off the training wheels and take a risk and up a perk plane in the MA, you'll now have the experience you crave and hopefully won't lose as many perk points flying a perked plane as you did in the past.  Basically, if you want to up a perk plane in the MA, you should be prepared to take the risks associated with it.

They used to have the Me 262 and Me 163 enabled in the DA but this was a long time ago

Yeah I remember that.

Was clone talking about perks or jets? Because my response was thinking that he was talking about perks.

Perks...using the Me 262 as an example of a perk plane being enabled in the DA.  Clone, I believe was referring to perk planes being in the DA and when you responded, I thought you were referring to perk planes and not the perks themselves.  You're right, perk points have never been enabled in the DA.

For me, part of the excitement is in the gamble that I take every time I up an expensive plane.

And the odds are certainly NOT in my favor.

or not! :)') Look JayHawk, How many points you got to spend whenever you want? I have never been a point-potato, however having a perk day once or twice a month ain't gonna kill the ego's of ANY uber pilots, not even yours. There is always a way to compromise to help those who rarely fly uber planes anywhere but the dueling arena, especially after paying for this game for a year or more....proving you'll probably stick around.   :banana: :bolt:

This will still be true on every other non perk day, right?  :headscratch:
