but you can be entitled to perks, no? shoot down 10 planes, you are entitled to x amount of perks?

Sure but you have to earn thous perks, if you earn them than you are entitled to them.

It depends on the perk bonus, for example.

When the perk multiplier is at 1: (all the countries are even numbers, or about.)

If you shoot down a Spitfire Mk. 16 in a Spitfire Mk. 16, both 5 ENY planes, you will get one perk.

The ENY of each plane is divided by each other.

ENYa / ENYb

Then that number, in this case 1, is multiplied by the perk bonus of 1, you get one perk for the kill.

It goes the same for all planes, even bombers. If you nice there is a number for OBJ, this number represents the destructiveness of that aircraft, all fighters have an OBJ of 10.0.

Bomber's OBJ are different depending on their destructive loads, the B29 is the lower end of the spectrum for OBJ meaning you will get less perks for destroying something than if you were in a B5N, the upper end of the spectrum at 40 OBJ.

I am not sure what the ENY of a town building, or other objects are, meaning what number they are given to plug into the equation for perk outcome. (OBJa / OBJb) * perk multiplier.

the pre-paid credit cards you can get at gas stations and drug stores will work.


basically anything with a CC number and expiration date.

  My wish wasnt so much about giving people free perks for dyin, as it was to make people not afraid to fight because they wont get as many perks if you die. Selfish wish I know, but it came from the heart.

i got my flame suit on for this one, here goes......

i think that if your flying a perked ride, and you shoot someone down in it, then they REUP &shoot you down, you ether should only lose a fraction of the perks you pair, or none at all.


ive had many times when im flying perked fighters in EW or perked buffs in LW, i'll shoot a guy down, just for him to reup after me again.


worst case i ever had was in my b29, had fought off a 110&pony, then this guy shows up in a typhoon. i was about to shoot him down, but not without heavy damage myself (including losing my tail gun).

he then REupped in a 262, tracked me down and killed me.

it just doesnt seem right, losing your perkies to a guy you allready killed 2-3 times before in that sortie.


flame away gents, flame away.

Yeah, debit card/credit card, different payment methods but most of the time if you see credit card, you can assume a debit card will also be accepted.  I've been using my debit card since day one, they simply withdraw the $14.95 once a month.

I have a visa debit card, its one of the most useful things in my wallet. I only ever make sure there is just enough in there to do want I need and have little fear of getting ripped of of the balance of my credit card online.
No thank you Turkish, I'm sweet enough.
