As stated I have thought this thru a number of times. Ask yourself why do you fly the plane that you fly? Answer normally is well cuz it has great specs. With the current setup in the MA with the radar and bar dar "whatever it is" we have taken away an essential part of some of these aircraft being able to survive.
With the AWACS type data we have it is rather hard to hide, and if you lose the enemy your buddy can say (psst) hes over here. It would be nice to actually be able to use AC and their camoflage schemes. I don't mind if radar pops on when planes get within say 5-10 miles of field. But the Dar bar has to go. Can't find the action? Thats what the radio bar is for. First thing I do is ask where is the action and what is needed. I can thank Santa for his pointing me to the base capture yesterday.
As it is now yeah you can fly your 51's or FW's or whatever, but I pay to fly plane's and not be limited because a certain plane costs perk points. Fixing the scoring system might help less points for kills in a better plane for example. I have plenty of perk points I am just looking out for those that cannot a mass a large amount. What fun are they having not being able to fly a plane? Why even introduce it?
We have players that have thousands of perk points before it was even implemented, and yet newbies get zero to start off with. I wil give this game one more month or so. But to be honest a historical arena needs to be added if you want to see diversity in the planeset. Right now MA is boring, and needs something to spice it up. I think this game has great potential, but has become stale and stagnet IMO. Repetition is one thing, but it gets old after awhile. Feel free to comment, I will answer to those that post in a logical way.
