Title: Eliminating perk cost?
Post by: sandwich on January 28, 2010, 11:14:04 PM
I fly nit.

When the numbers get unbalanced I can almost sit and watch as the perk prices of certain planes go down and down.

But they plateau at some point.

Why cant they just go away at some point?

Spit goes down to 2. (It shouldnt be perked anyway but whatever)

Corsair -1c goes down to 7 and -4 goes to 10.

I have never seen these planes go any lower than that.

So why cant the perk price be eliminated at some point?

Honestly, you can't take them with you when you die.  Those are some low perk costs Sir.  Enjoy 'em.

if you cant manage to save 10 perks, you wont really get any benefit from flying a perk plane.

Imagine this:

You're flying on a side affected by ENY, so you're fighting P-51s, P-47Ns and Ms, La-7s Spixteens, late-model F4Us, etc. with what basically amounts to a mid-war plane set. Inevitably, there's going to be parts of the map where even though you're hurt by ENY, you're actually OUTNUMBERED 2-3 to 1. This is NOT a funt place to be.

NOW imagine that same circumstance, but with the enemy having access to free Tempests, F4U-4s and 262s.

A 262 for less than 100 perk points IS free.

No.

When the numbers get unbalanced, The perk prices plummet.

At some point they plateau.

I would like it if the F4u-1c, the -4 and the spit XIV could still have the perk prices go down and eventually be eliminated if the numbers get unbalanced.

Nowhere did I say Anything about free 262's and tempests. :headscratch:

Do people even read the OP anymore?

So you only want some perk rides free and not others? picky huh even though you title the thread "Eleminating Perk costs?"

He's talking about the perk planes that are already low. all the perk cost decrease at the same rate so the lower perked planes would become free first. then the higher perked planes would slowly cost less and less while the lower perked planes become free.

Makes sense completely and i give it a +1

In my wish, If the numbers are so unbalanced that there's free tempests and 262's then that team Deserves them.

Its only realistic to assume the perk prices will be eliminated for the lowest 3 planes when numbers get unbalanced.

Its even more realistic to assume that Only the Spit XIV's perk price will be eliminated consistantly.

I find the eny thing annoying.  I have quit playing the game several times because either I can get into the arena that has the fights, or once I get in eny forces me to fly planes I dont want to fly, but that's just me. 

Let the low side have free "perk" planes, that way all the country switchers will do their thing and switch so I can go back to flying my spit8.  I mean I get embarrassed being forced to fly the pink spit9  :D.

I get a kick out of those who cry because of the ENY and/or their inability to fly something because of the ENY.  If the roles were reveresed they'd be the first to cry that there wasnt an ENY system to help balance out the arena. 

There are a whole host of aircraft all across the ENY range to fly that are worthy of attention.  There is nothing like taking of a 35 ENY P40E and diving into a furball and coming out with a couple of 5 ENY kills.  Try it sometime if you're willing to have a bit of patience to learn the "sucky" aircraft.   ;)
