i agree with this.

the b29 itself shouldnt be perked. its engines can burn as easily as a 24's.

and i just had a b.s time last night where i got killed by a small burst from a pony :/


leave the single b29 unperked.

perk any bombload that goes above the 20x 500lbers.

perk formations.

perk the 1000rpg gun option.



also, i'd like to request something.

if you shoot someone down, then that same person reups and shoots you down. you ether should only lose half of the perks you paid, or none at all.


last night was in a b29 over TT trying to assist the assault, shot down a typhoon.(got shot up pretty bad).

same guy ups again in a 262. tracks me down and kills me.


if the same guy you shot down in the same sortie end up shooting you down, you shouldnt lose perk points for it. sence that guy would of tech been "dead".

you whine alot when being shot down it seems...if we change the perk system wouldnt we only get more whines?

and i say -1 to this
Let perk the ammo ords not the plane.

Basic ords 100 perks point;

medium 150 perks point;

full ords 300 perks-points


 :salute

just imagine the whines that people would make up, "MY FRAKIN B29 IS TOO EXPENSIVE!!!"

love how your trying to do to me, what i did to you 2 weeks ago. cant think up anything yourself eh?  :ahand


and why does everyone keep saying "dont take off from a vultched field"?. that wasent the problem and i wasent complaining about that. what i thought was stupid was how easily that pony was able to down me. being "vultched" had nothing to do with it. unless somehow the b29's airframe is stronger at 20k than it is at 2k. or something :s.


but, lets move on.

i just wish the perk price would stay stable. instead of jumping everywheres inflight.

like when the 262 shot me down, originally when i spawned it said i only paid 78 perkies for it.

but when i died, it said i was -128 perkies.  :headscratch:

it shouldnt jump around like that after ive allready paid for the plane.

They dont jump around...when you pay for a plane it stays at that price, ill use my tiger for example

i payed about 40 perks for it and when it got jacked up to 46 and it died yet i still only payed 40 perks for it, when you buy it, you buy it for the price it was originally at when you started that sortie.

A P-51 is supposed to have a difficult time shooting down a B-29?

The B-29 doesn't get "stronger" as it flies higher, the toughness is the same if it's on the ground as it is if it's 20,000ft in the sky.

That's the result of the perk modifier and perk costs go down or up depending on your sides population. Sometimes that modifier changes in flight which is how the system is designed.  It's the price one pays for insisting on flying on the side with the most numbers.

it must. because whenever someone see's or hears about a b29 mission or where one is. the first planes they run to are ether the 262/typhoon or 190. only other pony that engaged me got both his wings clipped when he tried to dead-6 me.

As long as the B-29 isn't flying at 30,000ft, the P-51D is more than capable of intercepting it.  The B-29 was not a bullet sponge.

This is 100% wrong.  Once you up it doesn't change.  If you up formations though you need to multiple by 3.

The perk price is set at take off. If it changes during your sortie it does not effect the perks lost when you die.

like when the 262 shot me down, originally when i spawned it said i only paid 78 perkies for it.

but when i died, it said i was -128 perkies.  :headscratch:

Is there any chance one of your buffs exploded on the runway and you only had a formation of 2?  Because I heard some grumbling somewhere about them working on that, aside from what was done in the update. 

Oh.............Oh but perhaps actually, it is the update that has messed something up?

no ive never taken a b29 formation up in the MA. allways take a single b29 everytime.
