Title: New perk idea.
Post by: MANDOBLE on April 25, 2003, 01:43:28 PM

Perk the planes per player based on his deaths and kills with these planes.

One death = +1 perk for that plane.
One kill = -3 perks untill 0 is reached for that plane.

You die 20 times in a row in 190A5, and 190A5 will cost 20 perks for you. Then kill 7 planes in a row with 190A5 and 190A5 will be free for you again (7x3 -21 perks).

Overusage problem solved for sure. Just let early war planes 100% free of perk system.

Actually, it should be the other way around.  Otherwise, players wouldn't fly the planes they get killed in.  Under your plan, we'd all be flying LA-7s, Spitfires, and N1K2s by the end of the week.

If a player gets popped in a 190A5 20 times in a row, he should be encouraged to keep trying.  If a player gets 20 kills in a 190A5 without dying, then the plane should be perked.

May agree with you, at least partially, Gofaster.

Just make the "Death penalty" and the "kill reward" plane dependant:

La7 +3 perks per death.
190A5 +1 perk per death.

La7 -1 perk per kill
190A5 -3 perks per kill.

These extra perks may be reset every 48 hours.

Note that these perks are not added/substracted from your perk ammount, just added/substracted from the cost of a particular plane for you.

I must say I have heard it all now. So let me get this straight. You want to start perking a plane that a pilot does well in. And in effect you also want to start in effect punishing the pilots who do actually take the time to learn how to fly their rides?!?!? Common!!!
Maybe I misunderstood you, but let me give you some good advice. Learn how do fly your plane and use its advantages in your favor. Know the disadvantages, so that it will keep you from getting caught up in a jam. And lastly, LET GOT OF THE REDICULOUS NEW IDEAS OF PERKING THINGS. GOD ALLMIGHTY, should we start perking amunition too, so that if a pilot uses too mush with out getting a kill he gets a perk fine for that also?!?!?

I'd rather that all enemy planes look like Kenny from  South Park.

And we all know what happens to Kenny!

Perk that!
