This thread has MOVED me so EMOTIONALLY!

It's definitely time.

I MUST break into song!

All together now!

"Perk 'em all!

Perk 'em all!

The large and the fast and the small.

Perk all the Nikkis and all La's too,

Perk anything that can shoot back at you!

`cause they're asking to just perk 'em all

As back to their Gruppen they crawl,

There'll be constant crying

as long as they're dying,

So cheer up, my lads,

Perk 'em all!

Nobody knows if the FM's are true,

So cheer up, my lads,

Perk 'em all!"

This tour so far. (Not counting GV kills.) The "Big Four" have approximately 30% of the total kills. I still think a light balancing effort short be applied. Even 3 perks on each of the four would help spread the usage out.

I skipped the GV count due to the overwhelming usage of the GVs due to the extremely popular "Crater City" on Trinity.

PS. Toad, nice poem. But just perk the Big Four.....

Gawd, I hate the perk system! ALL OF IT!

Think of all the time and effort HTC spent on developing a perk-u-system, and programming the perk-u-lator to tally 'em with. (A monumental task made even more daunting since it probably required hiding HiTech's scotch due to the need for extended brainstorming!). Not to mention listening to all the pissing and moaning, followed by adjusting and refining, then re-implementing... etc... ad nausium...

Then imagine that time being spent on things like damage modelling, bugs, R&D, etc. Where "uber" planes are developed in 'Sets', 'pairs', or 'groups' of similar ac, negating the need for perks. (ie: an ME-262 is countered by it's British, or American equivalent, etc.).

Hell, I'll bet we'd gain 20 or 30% more bandwidth from not having anymore "Perk This" threads!

And right after all the scorepotatos exploded, MY perfect world would once again be spinning in greased grooves!

hehehe
S!

So we would have an arena of Me262 vs. Meteor. No other planes would be flown. They would not be able to compete.
