Yay! Now we'll have people flying the chog properly instead of newbies using it as an instant HO, respawn, HO, respawn, HO respawn tool!

This is long overdue, but now Chog fans can rightfully gripe that their ride is perked when other good planes are not.  IMHO all fighters which maintain a K/D greater than 1:1 should cost perk points to fly.  This would still leave most planes unperked, and any early war planes we get in the future would be unperked too.

It makes for better play balance, 8 perk points is no big deal.  What are you saving those perk points for anyway?

its a request to try and promote aircraft variety.

I'm always amazed at people that believe the best way to promote diversity is through limitation.

Those that want to fly the best plane, will just move to the next best plane... and that's "all you will see"... only now there is one less other plane to fly.

Let us all fly DR1. When they get tired of shooting us down, they will whine about no competitive AC.

The f4u-C was not perked when I opened my account. I like the cannon, I like the speed in a dive, I like the color. Now it is taken away.
I like planes. Give everyone all the Axis or allied planes they want. Don't take the AC that are already here. In the MA it don't mean squat anyway.

If you can't afford to pay 8 points for C-Hog then you shouldn't be here at all.

Now keep on whining and DjV you should read your post about "Direction" again.

Just to whine on a slightly different tangent, why is the Tempest 9 times as expensive as the CHOG?

Good question.  And same goes for the Arado. Why is the Arado sooo expensive when it has no defences?  Now, a B-29, yes, perk it to hell. But the Arado is not a very easy bomber to fly.

Maybe if all the planes were under 30 perkies to fly they would get the proper use?

Wait a second.
Anyone that cant accumulate 8 points dont belong here. Cancel their accounts, go back to playing online bingo? I thought anyone paying 30 buck a month belonged here, and their opinion was welcomed.
