Will everyone be flying a 190-Dora 9?

[Bullwinkle]

I saw on another post that the D9 was pulling 395 mph with special wep or MW-50.  And I heard that it won't be perked. I know I'll be flying it. It also looks to be fastest through all altitudes on the chart.  I hope we don't perk it but then will everyone be flying it? What is it's bad points?

Thanks

I must have missed pyro saying it wouldnt be perked.

I used to gravitate towards the 190D9 in WBs, just because it could eek out a few yards closure on the 51D every couple of miles.

God only knows what it will do in AH but I do plan on finding out  

I only hope there is a decent terrain to try it over when it gets here.

Well I was tld by a person who has been reliable since Tour 11 with insider info that it wasn't going to be perked. This leads me to believe that maybe it won't have MW50? That would kinda negate the reason for putting the D9 in the game wouldn't it?

I suggest to perk it if Verm's cahrts are right. It apparently has the fastest speed curve of all current aircraft.

Perk P47M/N/whatever - 1000 perks
Perk Tempest  - 1000 perks

I dont have a great idea about perk points but my actual experience says thats acceptable prices to keep ppl away from kamikazes engagements.


I think most aircrafts should be perked but not so high and not so low perk price. I mean dont give it easy but not so hard.
The way to make this sim more real is to give a reason for ppl to stay alive, if we can "buy" planes with few perk points it will not solve the problem.
The lastest versions of all variants should be perked.

*Plus*
Deaths in any plane:   -5 perks
Wanna fly good(perked) planes? Stay alive.

And yet still many other planes options to fly without perk points needed and the non perked planes gives more perk points.


Im tired of when im rearming/refueling or just taking off or landing and a suicide dweeb fly into the flak to get a kill on my before the acks blows him in pieces.

Thats all.

But still P-51D would be more maneuverable..

No way you're going to get any 190D9 perked unless you perk P-51D also.

I wonder what the perk system will cost.

500 points is ALOT!  My avg sortie is 3-5 points and I have barely 800 perk points right now!

PS Get rid of that goofy terrain!

Has everyone seen the speed chart that Verm put up comparing the fastest planes? The 190d9 with MW50 boost is phenomenol! It FAR surpasses the P51D in all altitudes, and even the G10.  I can't imagine it even being equal to the P51D. And as far as it not being as maneuverable as the P51D, I've heard quite different numbers. More like equal maneuverability.

considering the average sortie seldom yields more than 3 points you would have to fly well over 150 sorties at 3 points each. 500 points for ANY FIGHTER is retarded.  the average joe doesent fly for houres and hours a day and wouldent be able to afford a perk plane but MABY once a tour..that would SUCK.

But still P-51D is faster than 190D9 over a. 21k
whats the problem?
Should we now perk 109G10 as well because it goes faster than P-51?

so, if you perk 190D9, then you would be screaming for perk of 109G10, then what we would have left?
F4u and P-51....   and you already did yell La-7 for perk.

lol thanks TheWobble

ok, make it 100 points and the 1000 points drops to 500 imo.
