The 152 used to be perked along with the Spit 14. Both had their perk values removed many years ago.

Ehh, id maybe lower the k4, yak3, and 190D to 6 ENY or so. The spit16 is what should be perked. I dokt think the Ta52 or 110 should be perked. They have their weaknesses.

The planes that I wish would be perked are B26s and Tu2s. Always ruining the CV fights. B26s near impossible to take down without 4 cannons and are fast as hell. The TUs can dog fight, are fast as hell, and have nasty front cannons.

Perk the G2 for what? Have you tried to fly that crate? I got many more kills in the C4B then I ever got in a G2. Do tell why you think it needs perked?

In my opinion everything should be perked heavily to discourage what we have today..

But then what's the monthly $15 for..

Perk planes for subscribers only - 20 eny and below for subscribers only as well

15-20 planes for free users w/ an ad or two they have to watch when they enter arena.

The G2 does NOT have a load out for the 30mm. It does have a 20mm nose cannon and the option for the 2 wing mounted 20mm gondolas, but they come with a sacrifice of both speed and turning.

The only 109s with the 30mm option is the K4 and the G14

Perk the good Luftwaffe stuff, but not P-51D or Spit 16? Tell us you fear them without telling us  :devil

Perk system is another system that doesn't work in my opinion.

Veteran players have thousands and thousands of perks that they'll never use and they can take whatever plane they want whenever they want. Newbie players that are building up perks, it makes those planes really hard for them to be able to afford

I would like to see the eny system removed and perks removed for every plane except for aircraft that were historically not up in operation in large numbers.

For fighters, that would be maybe the 262s, the 163s, the TA 152, maybe few others. Just going off the top of my head..

But in my opinion it's not like the perk system stops anyone from flying what they want whenever they want if they've been around in the game for a while. All it does is put other players at disadvantage that can't afford those in my opinion.

thats a good point but still doesnt mean it cant slowly lower veteran perks yknow? and i dont mean 500 perks i mean like 2-5 perks

I'd be curious to see a small perk value (T-34/85 style) on the ENY5 planes like P-51D, Spit16, 190D9 for example. I'd love to see the same on the Wirble. It'd be more of a psychological thing though.

The D9 is an ENY 12 plane, not 5. That seems pretty out of whack. Not sure how that was figured.
