I agree with Dmitri. If we want to make this "real", then why would the pilot get the points? He just died. But, I think that htc should assign perk points to be given to everyone else flying on that side to spead evenly. The real pilots only had one chance to get it right, and the outcome didn't affect them in any way....
I wouldn't mind kamikazee points, but just as in real life, maybe the one guy should take it for the team...

Do the perk points go to your widow or next of kin?? They must, since you aren't around anymore to use them

A typical evening:

NHcouger says: omw to hit cv, in a buff

5min latter CV is sunk we all cheer...

We sink CV's all the freaking time it is easy to do. if they made the ack harder to fly through instead the eye candy it is now a weapon like the BAKA would make a little more since u would half to try and actually fly into the Cv and if memory serves they a sweety to fly.O did I mention that when we sink a CV we usually die right after doing it...so what's the difference? what's the message?

Don't we already suffer from this style of attack in the MA... I can't count the number of suicide hanger plunges I've seen in the last week... C-Hog, guns blazing, rockets firing, bombs falling off, right into a hanger with NO attempt to pull up.

What's the difference?

Maybe you would only get the credit if it were a certain Japanese plane, or maybe you would have to select something before augering, I don't know. Maybe there shold be perk point penalties for not landing correctly (if your shot down, -a point. If you auger with no shots fired into you, -3 points)
Just thoughts....

Though.. its just not right drinking to the memory of someone that gave his life fighting for his country and actually having him be there drinking with you.

Basically, giving points to someone for acheiving a statistical goal at the risk of having to instantly re-plane at the tower seems a bit silly.
