Interesting concept rip!

HFmudd I was thinking by kills.

Never thought of by ratio. Maybe both then devide?

The first month that the tempest and 262 are free their activity will go way up. But IMO they would balance.

I agree with most of the perk system, just think its overpriced. How long would it take an average pilot in a spit 14 to make enough perks to replace it? If your half good you should have at least 50/50 odds of makeing enough perk points in a perk plane to replace it if lost.

Brother Ghost... You'd want an arena where the Me262 is in the top 10 in kills? *shivers* that's a scary thought...

Ghosth is looking at this, I think, with an economists point of view. Let the market dicate the price. Since supply is infinite, the supply and demand would be impacted by a ratio of use and kills. I actually like the idea, but it would take quite a while (I think) to come to some equilibrium on prices and in the meantime, things could get ugly.

That's why I think the player's fighter rank should have an impact on perks earned or received by the other player. Shoot down a player who is in a category better than you and you earn a slight perk modifier and thus more perks...and shoot down an easy newbie and your perks are decreased some amount. However, when the newbie gets a kill, he'll earn at a greater rate of perks and I think all this too will equilibrate so that the poor-middle players will have just as much access to an ME262 as the middle-excellent players.

No, they wouldn't, not even close. Worse, a few guys would attempt to get the Tempest perked again, explaining how it is superior in every way to the 262...

...how's that argument go again? "It is easier to get a kill in a Tempest because it takes so long to set up a run in a 262", thereby explaining why someone in an unterjet is so much more skilled than the unter pilot in an unter prop plane... or something like that....
