Unperk the 262
« on: February 11, 2014, 05:03:51 PM »
This ride really doesn't warrant a perk cost. It can't carry any ordnance (So it's essentially useless since it can't drop hangars) has a difficult to master gun package, and is easily shot down shortly after taking off. It's only redeeming quality is that it's the fastest fighter in the game. With it's high perk cost nobody de-acks or strafes GV's with it and since most pilots just run it into mountains I feel it's capabilities have been over-exaggerated similar to the Spit 14.

What should he do if he is drunk and at home?

Don't think you'll catch much with this stinky bait, ReVo.

Put the keyboard down before he hurts himself?

The mouse as well!

Hell, someone see if we can't get him put into a psychiatric hospital; I think he may have had a nervous breakdown.

A few hours of electroshock therapy?

Brilliant idea! I can see it now...morning time (USA) Bish rides limited to Brew's, F4F's & Spit/Hurri 1's. Meanwhile NOE 262's come buzzing in at 400 IAS.  :P

Ah... The 262... It handles like a virgin on prom night and runs like a white guy in the bad part of town, it carries more firepower than a team of SEALs yet is as accurate as an 90 year old man's whizz going into the toilet in the morning.


Does it still require a perk cost?

Yes.

Why? Because. 'Merica. That's why.
