T34 over use?

[DmonSlyr]

It should be higher perked. Its makes games bland when everyone turns to the best tanks, planes, weapons, because of certain advantages. I said the same thing about the temp since it's better than the 262 even. Some planes should have small perk cost. The top fighters of WW2 should have 5-10 perk costs. I dont really understand why planes dont have small perk like the tanks do to.balance over usage.

[Shuffler]

Here they can just use them. In other games they have to buy themselves better. LOL.

99.999999999% of GVs are the 85s.
Not much of a GVer here but can point out its "overuse" and for sake of pushing the population to try other tanks, I am fully supportive of raising the perk cost.

While we're at it. PERK THE YAK3 

[DmonSlyr]

Yak3, Spit16, La7, 190D, 109k, P47M, N1K ( due to 4 900 cannons, 550 dive, and infinite E climb with amazing turn ability, should be perked atleast 5-10 perks. Id leave the P51 just for posterities and the 50s which are tougher than ever these days with connections to bring planes down. This would balance out the fights a little better I think and maybe get some of the "vets" in tougher planes instead of chasing off the new comers.

I’m all for revisiting perks as a whole. Definitely could use some diversity across the spectrum. Think perks could be applied just to dismantle some of the cut-paste-rinse-repeat. I’ve often thought eny should make the perk scale slide and most of the overused equipment should have a marginal perk cost. I also think 1000lb bombs should have a perk cost for fighters too.

The 1000# is essential to taking out hangers when using heavy fighters.

True, but a small perk cost wouldnt stop the use on a fighter, especially seeing as so many have tons of perks. However in the end it may put more players in a bomber to drop hangers instead. Its not so much about limiting 1000 lbers on fighters, its more about bringing in more diversity of play in the game.

Exactly.

Say some butthead (let’s say a good jug pilot who shall remain nameless) shows up…
He could (hypothetically of course) wipe out the VH, gun down the radar, shred all the town guns, still have an egg to bomb a T34 hiding in the hills, all while providing moderate air suppression. Even though that’s what Jugs do, I feel like that’s a bit of an imbalance. A small perk for that ability (1 or 2 perks per 1000 pounder) wouldn’t break the game or his ability to level that kind of carnage. Just a small cost to do so.

I always thought perks should be reset every month or by map. Each campaign you start out with a certain amount of perk points But.....

All tanks and aircraft would have a perk cost with the exception of troop and Supply delivery vehicles. The low tierTanks and aircraft would have a minor cost.The better the equipment the more cost, going up to the late warplanes. I would hope it would be away To cut down on bombing and bailing, HOing where you don't even move to try to avoid the collision. Using certain aircraft like bombers in a non-historical manner such as you see a lot of today. Or any other suicidal type activity. Transport and resupply Vehicles would be a way to replenish perks If you're having a bad day. Or if you're having a really bad campaign.The ability to buy more perks from Hitech in a limited manner. Kind of think of it as an attrition warfare  system, But it is assigned to the player and not to the team.
 
Good gameplay is rewarded, poor decisions you're punished.

Then marry the attrition Warfare to the ENY system... 

If the sides become imbalanced,the side with the larger population still gets to fly anything they want to...But they have to pay the price.

LilMak, the majority of my fighter work is heavily loaded.  P38s, P47s, F4us, and F6Fs. 
I am guessing that heavy, 1000 bomb carrying fighter only make roughly 30% of base attack fighter sorties.

Maybe it should go the other way.  No bomb has a perk penalty.  Just pulling your leg.

I like the idea of making the ordinance cost something.

[Shuffler]

I have perks on my perks... but then I almost always fly the 38J. Some folks say I smell of coffee. Yes, even though I am usually partaking of frozen margaritas.

If it were modeled as it was built during the war... no one would use it.

It was so good it starred in a movie!

The T-34/85 should be one of the easiest tank to kill with its 45mm armor in its chassis.
Worse optics did not help either.
