OOOO A NEW PLANE TO PERK!!!

The typhoon, massively, the N1K2 a bit, the Spit, a bit, the La7 a bit, the Chog has still lots of kills, and the Dhog now has almost twice the usage it had.

The typhoon is on track to beat its total number of kills from last tour (islands map).  But it is not on track to beat its total number of kills from the lake map... you know.. back when there were F4u-1Cs too.

The Spit IX and N1K2 now have a dispraportionate ammount of kills in the MA.  Not necessarily due to a massive increase in use, but rather a massive decrease in total kills.

Most of what is happening right now is 20% of the arena is trying to figure out to do now that their ride has been pulled out from under them.  Very curious to see what happens.

That said, I wonder what most other dedicated pilots in this arena would do if their favorite rides were pulled out from under THEM.

If there was a twin at the hangar with very effective main weapons and better A/G loadout, I definitely would fly it  

And I agree with you that the numbers we see now dont prove too much because it is too soon to say it.

But as the thing is going, there is nothing new with the N1K2 and Spit getting all those kills. They are getting just the same as in previous TODs.

Not this early in the TOD they didn't. Do you even track this stuff? If you extrapolate the data, you gonna be surprised. Heck, in 1 day the n1k has increased its kill margin by over 100 over the spitix. lol, this is going to be fun to watch when you guys try to take 2 aircraft out, hehehe.

Roger that, Drill.

How about a moratorium until the end of this tour? Deja can then put up the Fighter V Fighter stats and THEN the ...

"DID NOT!"

"DID TOO!"

can begin in real earnest!

1-I fly LW only    
2-C202 is italian
3-C202 is not quite a 190's twin    

I've said it and I repeat it, give me four 50 cals for my Dora and Fw190A5, and six 50 cals for the Fw190A8 and I will never ever fly the Mauser-fitted ones again.

[edit]yes, I like the 50 cals over the mausers.   [/edit]

Deja, perk the G10, I wouldn't mind. Perk the A5, D9 as well. A8 is a bit of a stretch, but ok.

As long as I have one of the A models of the 190 series or the g2, I'm happy enough.

Down goes that argument  .

AKdejaVu now its the LW who run?

I really hope in your stats it shows you to have been a p51d flyer but i cant check them can i AKDejaVu doesnt exist in scores  

Do you realise ALL LW flyers could not catch a p51d for over a YEAR of playing and did they run ? YOU BET YOUR bellybutton THEY DID.

I dont run deja i might disengage from a superior force or to regain lost height.I might run home if damaged bad enough but i dont see that as unusual.If this is just another snide label you have decided to put on me and others  who fly an aircraft in a game then you trully are living up to my veiw of you.
All i see is you trying to make trouble in every post i read.not always so childish as some but you always have a snide anti lw slant to every post you do.
its getting old and a bit annoying for me.Not at being called names but just having to scroll past the toejame you put up about me and others like me who fly a type of plane.
To be honest AKDejaVu i only fly one side (axis/allied) for the fun of being the bad guy and maybe playing the fool for fun by talking comical german with stsanta etc.
I like to see missions with all american or british or LW because it LOOKS good.Its all in fun and you are killing it for me.

Ive tried to understand that you get annoyed at people but stop all the crap

Yup, perking the chog hasn't completely eliminated it's use by dweebs.  I was grabbing from a friendly base when I saw a chog below me.  As I attacked he reversed and tried to HO me.  I did an early turn and pulled towards his 6. Then I noticed a C47 below us inbd our base.  I broke off the F4 and dove for the C47.  The chog dweeb turned tail and ran away as I attacked his helpless country mate.

After I downed the C47 I chased the chog to a friendly base where he dove through the ack to vultch a friendly (SwoopGB) taking off.  Swoop avoided him and gave him some lead (delivered at high velocity) at which point the ack finished him off.

Result: Only F4 seen in 1.5 hours of MA action ran from a fight, failed to protect a friendly C47 and was shot down while trying to vulch.

Conclusion: Dweebs CAN afford to fly the perked bird and do so.  Therefore, enjoy the fact that when you now shoot down an F4 dweeb, you get even more perk points than before.
