unperk the 152
« on: October 13, 2003, 05:59:56 PM »
why should the 152 be perked i no they perk planes to keep them in low numbers but how would the 152 see to much use when the nik is not perked and it is a late war plane that i dont think ever saw real combat and the 152 is not a great plane it rips its wing tips easy at high speed and its only good alt is 20k+

i think the 152 should be unperked;)

I agree here. The 152 on the level of threat is right above that of a squirl.

It's used more than the spit 14 and has a better k/d... so maybe unperk it after the spit14.;)

The Spit14 is a great plane but it doesn't have the safety margin of speed like the other higher perk point planes and so more likely to be lost. If it were 15-20 pts I'd fly it much more often.

4~8 perks are enough for the Spit14.

 Ta152 should be perked at 8, same as the Chog.

Your not using it right. This plane is deadly in the right hands.

An evil Squirrel?  We have been lobbying for god knows how many years remember it used to be 50 perks.  And to be honest it shouldn't be perked.  Maybe we might see them acting as stangs with less of a getaway.  Or maybe as squirrels.

............................ Your Point is what?


Who cares if its perked or not. Its always a low Perk Number, so it dosen't matter.

Kommandant i dont have 9999999999999999 fighter perks my Point is that there are planes like the nik la7 190d-9 that are unperked and have no price tag and by flying the ta 152 i can see that its not a super plane and is not any better then the 190d-9 at low to mid alt infact the 190d-9 is better at mid to low alt and people that think unperking the 152 well bring masses flying it   people would rather fly 190d-9 or a better mid fighter because its only great up to 20k+ and by looking at its climb rate with wep off it takes along time for this plane to get high

but i dont see unperking this well turn it into a nik or la7 :rofl

The perk price is not a problem on any of them.  It is the perk icons that make the three slower perk planes, particularly the Ta152 and Spit XIV, hard to use.  Give them 190, F4U and SPIT icons and they'll be fine.

I agree completely.  If I knew I could "blend in" with the rest of the 190s, Spits and F4s, I'd fly a few.  But heading into a fight and knowing i'd effectively be the fat kid playing dodgeball...noooooo!
