Perked ordnance. i've heard very little about this concept. can someone take 5 min to explain it and what's planned?

It means that when we get BEE-Twenty-NiNeZ in this game w/NoOks, you will have to pay 87,653,099,021,069 buff points to use 'em.
There...that oughta keep 'em busy awhile.

Well for example, the f4u-D and F4u-C - Both are same plane, difference is f4u-C has quad 20mm's
One way they would make perk ordnance is simply drop the F4u-C and add the quad 20's to the F4u-1D
basically if you take off with this option it would cost perks - or for F4u-4 series the tiny tim rockets could cost some perks.

Lol BnZ. sorry but i'm not quite that noobish. The b-29 one day but there are many other aircraft to be added. so many choices i'm not even sure which ones.
-
how would that affect skins for the HOG's. Chog has one skin and D has a few, you choose the 20mm's are different skins available or are -1D's going to have flying with 20mm's?

GREAT!! I have just enough Bomber Perks for it right now. (87,653,099,021,088)

Actually I think hitech (or Pyro speaking about what hitech said) has stated categorically that the B-29 will NEVER be added to the game.
I would expect the same with a nuke.
In my opinion, it's stupid (yes, stupid, not ignorant) to ask for one; not that you asked, mind you. And the people who so desperately want one that they keep pestering the rest of us with this question do not fully understand the not-so-subtle aspects of the game, such as aerial combat.
As far as perked ordnance...I think its a marvelous idea and look forward to its implementation.

No, they didn't.
The only thing I actually ever seen categorically ruled out by them is the n00k.
I almost never say never, an exception to that is an atomic bomb.
-
They said there was a technical reason relating to (I think) the turrets and the sighting positions being different, or something about the gunning.
They said "no" flat out to very very few things. One of them is a bomb bigger than the 4000lb bomb already in-game.

I'd guess clipping problems with the gun periscopes... the very same reason we don't have a usable periscope for the Ar 234

This what I don't understand. Wouldn't slaved guns that we have now act like a remote gun turret?
-
I wish HTC would better clarify the problem with that.
I mean, it might be a problem when we get the me 410, too! Can't have that!!! :devil

Yes, I thought so too. But the turret itself wouldn't be the problem - it's location the point of view into the periscope.
When theys tried with the 234, they experienced clipping problems, if I remember right.. gotta dig it up.
There is one:
(concerning Ar234 periscope)
It's supposed to have the to fixed 20mm's, but we had a problem with the periscope not clipping correctly with the 3d model.

HTC site - Help - Perks (http://www1.hitechcreations.com/ahhelp/perks.html) ... second sentence:
Perk planes (and vehicles) would be things like Me 262s, Ta 152s, Tempests, B-29s, Ar 234s, Tiger IIs, etc.

I was personaly hpoing this would be a way of getting for varied kinds of bombs into the line up, but there seems to be no room for skip bombs, para frags, or tall boys for mossies....so why am I even writing this? :huh

I don't think anyone knows why you bother posting, to be honest.
