Perk em
« on: March 19, 2012, 05:59:49 PM »
Want to get players out of P-51s? Run-90s? LA's? Spixteens? and into the rest of the plane set?

Then perk em! There, Ive said it.

for once I agree that sheep could possibly make gameplay more interesting.

I really don't think HTC wants to get people out of those planes. If they didn't not want people flying them they would just not put them in the game originally.

The reason why we perk planes is because they are much better than all the others and not because people fly them a lot.

Better yet, learn ACM and tactics and you won't need to perk those planes you mentioned.

Why are we trying to get the new players out of planes that might make the steep learning curve a little more fun for them?

They don't need to be perked, they need their ENY lowered so the least bit of imbalance shuts 'em down, especially the la7, P51D, and Spit16.

all three to be used correctly need a bit of skill to pull off. they dont need anything done to them. ive killed many a spit16 and la7 because of noob flyers

the only thing I would ask to change - and this is what Karnak was saying awhile ago is to take 1000x2 bomb load away and force non attack dedicated planes to use 500s.  And sure, the running high speed stuff is annoying for sure, but no matter what, there will always be a fastest non-perked plane, and no matter what, there will always be a range of options there.  But the 51 with its 1000 pounders is a bit off. . .

I think that's okay. Their significantly slower while carrying the 2X1000lb so it doesn't bother me.
Plus I don't think that change would do anything. You can still dogfight in attack mode so if all I needed to do in order to take a fast plane with lots of ord was click the attack button then I would have no problem doing it.

No, my suggestion was to perk the 1000lb bombs on things like the F4Us, F6F-5, Fw190s other than the Fw190F-8, P-51D and Typhoon.  Maybe the P-47s too.  Clicking the Attack button wouldn't make the bombs available.  Dedicated attackers would be things like the P-38s, Bf110s and Fw190F-8.
