Great perk list imo...how hard do you think it would be to perk everything with over 200 kills each month,

It would be an every changing list and would provide a variety in game play not there today

(This was in ATTACK as Combat Air Patrol, not hunting GVs and should not be lumped in with Stukas and IL-2s.   It's certainly worthy of an honorable mention.)

Would be kind of interesting to see ENY based on your K/D...but that would cause uproar

Nope.    I strafed them.  Ack may have helped finish some off but the effort was mine. 

Point being, I was flying CAP and don't need to be lumped in with the A-10 crowd.  16-0 in air combat alone.   But you knew that...

The Il-2 and Ju-87 are land-based anti-tank platforms whereas the SBD and Val are carrier-borne anti-shipping.    There should be a distinction.

This was the first time i concentrated primarily in 1 aircraft. That 218 is usually split between all the Corsairs and F6F.

How many hours per week on average are people playing to get such scores?

preferably all of them, but with kids, work, house care, car care...can only manage half of them.

Haggerty-96 hours, 4.1 K/H

TheJudge-75 hours, 9.9K/H

AKCaine-194 hours, 2.3 K/H

Orelle-93 hours, 3.9 K/H

50cal-38 hours, 6.1 K/H

Rud3boi-20 hours, 4.1 K/H

ZE-47 hours, 5.2 K/H

Average- 80 hours, 5 K/H

But you have to take that with a grain of salt.

Rud was well below average in both time and K/H, but he did his in a much weaker fighter.
Haggerty got most of his in a Chog, but more than half of them were vehicles and buffs while TheJudge did most of his in a D9 with only 12-13% were vehicles and buffs.

So for the most part its a time in game stat more than a real kill stat. Dont get me wrong, some of these guys are pretty darn good fighters, ZE is great in his brewster, Rud in pretty much anything he flys, and TheJudge in his D9, but for these stats its "Time in Game".

Haggerty-96 hours...

Those have to be hours per tour otherwise AKCaine is finding an extra day-and-a-bit somewhere per week  :rofl

Interesting to consider the performance-centricity of achieving a high score rather than progression of technique, experimentation etc. The former is more an announcement of executing known technique to a high degree of consistency. Productivity, basically. I think Rud3boi is far and away the highest skill on that list for least hours although I've only ran into Haggerty once or twice.

Wouldn't 1 v 1 in the same plane be the best test?

That's available once a month via the good graces of fuzeman but most on these lists are a no show then

How do you calculate time in a plane?
Title: Re: Tour 272 Winners!
Post by: Eagler on October 15, 2022, 03:21:41 PM
It would probably not be good for some egos but I would like to see the opposite of this list...the most hours played with the least kills...maybe leave out the pilots handle

Those players are the future of this game as they show the fortitude needed to get better in it

This list just shows us what most of us already know from MA experience

It cant be done I dont think. You can sort the time per group, ie fighter, bomber, and so on but not by plane. Well I dont think "we" can. Im sure HTC can do it. Lusche would be the best to answer as he knows the ins and outs of the score system better than anyone.

I'd be curious to see score broken down by aircraft type. Too bad there is no way of getting that other than total kills and kill ratio.

Looks like you are including bomber time as well, some guys dont spend any time in a bomber.

Not sure what you mean, i'm guessing not the default break down of Fighter/Bomber/Attack?

As in take all the performance among all players in each plane and score that data vs other planes. I think it would be eye opening to compare it to the ENY
