Ways to spend more perks
« on: March 07, 2016, 11:51:43 AM »
I was thinking, gathering perks as a veteren player is pretty easy. I have over 7K after flying for 2 years in fighters. I could fly 262s for the rest of the year and be cool. That being said, I don't want to fly 262s everyday, so my perkies don't really decrease and there isn't much else to really use them for.

How about adding ways to spend more perkies.

1. Use perks to add different Ord loadouts, change skins, fix damage, while on the re-arm pad.

2. Use perks to up multiple bombers, maybe even more than 3, for your escorts.

3. Up the amount of perks you get for winning the map.

Those are just a few ideas. Maybe there could be even more.

I think it would be cool to add more things to the game to spend your perks on.

I would also like to see the different perk categories be removed and replaced by a universal perk pool.  Would make it easier for players to spend perks.

Well, it is harder to earn them there fighter perks than them there bomber perks. Trust me, I know. (I'd still leave it all the same.)  :airplane: :cheers:

Scratching my head trying to remember what our idea was when we made 3 different categories.

Or a way to donate say 20 or 40
Perks to a player? maybe once every 2 days per person, so as to alleviate being abused?

Might start a perk selling cartel .... for those that have plenty to burn. Buy low .... sell high.

Universal pool would be sweet, not that it would change much for me.  I'd still be chugging along in a bomber far more often than a fighter. :)  Either way I like it. :aok

Now I am curious to why you opted for the current system. :headscratch:  Maybe it had something to do with the Tour of Duty/Combat Tour idea you had? :headscratch:

perk ALL planes except for a few, and perk ALL ords to stop suicide runs. if you land you get your money back, you die or get captured you lose it all, ditch you get 1/2 back. easy makes the game more fun, and raises the stakes of each of your computer lives.

Yep.


IMO, perks should be lost as soon as you spawn in.   Keeping them with a safe landing only doubles timidity.

Yea I agree with violator. I would like if HTC to add options while on the rearm pad to either repair my plane for perks or either change load outs. That will make the game more realistic. Also on behalf of the repairing session they should add more time to do the repair instead of the 30sec's, this all depends on the options you choose on the rearm pad.
