LOL...Ike plays gratis and wants to dictate limitations to the 3,000 or so paying players? I don't think so :)

Besides, it would further infuriate the all-too-common display of vulching, head-ons and ganging.

What's the point of AH having so many planes if you're just gonna perk all of them?

Ummm, no.

(great response, had to steal it.)


If you want to perk everything, then the entire system would have to change.

If you changed the levels to:

0, 2, 4, 8, 16, 100, then MAYBE I'd buy into it.

The low levels mean that yes, there will still be LOTS of the higher level planes, and you DON'T have to work HARD to get your Spit/LA/N1K1, but you need to maintain some level of safety or you may lose it for a (SHORT) while.

This would force you to actually care about PERK points, JUST A LITTLE, at all times.  The 262/163/234 would have their points LOWERED since you would actually be using the points at almost all times.  The only way to get one at the current point levels would be to never fly perk planes at all.

no perk points at all.....the lower your rank, the more limited your choice of planes becomes......if you want to fly a 262 or even a pee 51 you'll just have to die a lot more LOL

Perk Planes?  What are those???  :D  

Every once in a while, I'll take a 262 up.  I've got so many perks now, I'll give 'em so somebody if they want them :)

Perk system is fine the way it is...  IMO

Instead of a Perk System...we need a Dork System. Everyone would begin with access to all planes. Each plane would have a 'Dork value'. With each kill you get, you get Dorks. The more Dorks you have, the more restricted the plane set becomes.

It might go something like this...

50 dorks...no more 262s

75 dorks...no more P51s, 163s, Ta152, D-9s...etc..

What you end up with is everyone with over 100 dorks flying Spit 1s, Emils and P40Bs.

Makes perfect sense....if you are mentally challenged :D.

well...right now as it is you have the best pilots flying the best planes....which makes it even more demoralizing for a newbie....if they're that good they should be able to do well in the worst  planes......or....since most of the long timers have thousands of perk points to spend....put a time limit on fighter perks....say 3 months and they are gone

c'mon, where is the excitement of flying zeroes, hurricanes, P-40B/Es, and C.202s in main arena? these non perked planes were overshadowed by spit 9s p-51s la-7s, F4U-1 1/Ds to name the few and zero(a6m2) fun in MA was all lost
