here's real sophistocated reason why: would be a hoot to have her unperked. would be fun. you'll die lots many planes can chase her down. and she's pretty much out of service.

funny this thread appeared; twice in the last few weeks i grabbed a tempest by accident (missed typh with the mouse, ended up in tempest) but didnt figure it out until near end of each flight. The fuel tanks clued me in. anyway, a 6 kill and a 4 kill, all the while I am thinking "man, this typh sure handling better than I remember!"

I am all for unperking the tempest; while we are at it the spit 14!

LMAO! I've done that too many times in the spit 14.

I'd be flying around wondering why everyone is attacking me. Also why I was going so fast.

Then when I go to check the perks from when I get shot down, it's -65.

I'm not sure that the Tempest should be unperked, but I would like to see the perk cost brought down to 10 or so, just like the C-Hog.

I do think that the RAF is missing out by not having a lightly perked plane.

And dont forget to unperk 262 also.

Lets not get carried away.

There is an obvious advantage/advantages that the 262 has over nearly every other plane in the MA besides the Me163.

Edit: Go back and look for posts on this topic. The CHog wasn't perked at the begining. But it is now. But the NIK isnt'. I will never understand why this is. Either perk them both or de-perk the chog is what I always say.

Nothing will change the simple fact that HiTech has the final say in what is perked and not perked. I'd rahter see a bunch of blue planes with cannons stalling out all over the place than the hundreds of NIKs one will see on a daily basis in the MA. But I'm not HiTech and neither are any of you. Point being, this will never go any further than this thread. Sad but true.

Tempest can't be un-perked because... uh... it has less ammo than a niki and can't turn with an la7... yeah...

and uh... Spit14 can't be un-perked because... it uh... has a 5 bladed prop... .... myep.... can't have that....

I agree. while it has very nice guns. It doesnt fly well enough to warrant a perked status. Even if it is a cheap perked plane.

I Say perk ALL spits cept the earliest models.
Too many people in spits these days.
Pretty soon we sould just rename the game "Spits High"

Guess ya can tell I hate spits.
yea I know it wont go any farther then this thread.
But we can dream cant we?

Flit · « **Reply #11 on:** March 07, 2004, 11:22:23 AM »

That would be interesting, Drediock.
Ya know, is'nt the reason the CHog was perked was because everyone was flying them ?
Well, that and it turned like a fm2 and had 4 hispos, of course.
I'd like to see what the next plane would be the "spitfire" if ya perked them.
Now, I Would like to see the c-hog unperked.I mean, They corrected the wieght, so it's not like it was way back.
It would be my pork plane of choice

A ahh! Thats how ya do a smiley ! Eureka!:(
Cool ):

MadMan · « **Reply #12 on:** March 09, 2004, 01:04:26 AM »

How bout we perk the La-7 and the Nik... and add a new perk bomber (if you read the help page it mentions the B-29 as a perked bomber)so I can use all these Bomber Perk Points.

Heh, Chog guys are adamant about this, almost as chauvinistic as 109 drivers are about paint schemes, however . . . .

The fact is you were not likely to encounter a later war Japanese aircraft except in had cannons whereas the CHog was far and away the least likely configuration a japanese aviator would face (CHog was designed as a ground support AC). Unperk it and no other Hogs would ever fly, and that would be a shame and flatly sillier--far sillier--than having so many Nikis. The Niki did outnumber the Chogh in production terms, I think only what, 200 Chogs were produced? I guess a valid question is: why were they included in Aces High?

If you want to bait and destroy Nikis, learn to fly the P-38--it owns them.

I think there should be two arenas: Extreme Pretend La La land for guys who want to play Chog vs Ta-152 all day with no perks on any rides, and one that mimicks as closely as is possible given the constraints of the game the actual war.

That is why I am usually in Combat Theatre.

Sakai

they have one... it's called the TA, which is where most of these perk whiners *should* be flying - if they learned to fly the other rides, they'd earn enough perkies to fly whatever they wanted.
