What they should have done was

[Kazaa]

Perk the La7 and the Spitfire Mk 16.

But still, at least I don't have to chase around La7s any more

[SkyRock]

perk the hurri2c in the EWA!:aok

[Nightshift82]

looks like the hurri 2c and 109f are the new "la7 and spixteen" of the EWA

[Simaril]

Watching the landed kill totals of the hurri2C in EWA, I find myself wondering if this is what the C-Hog scourge was like....

Occurs to me that the "perk the Hurri and 109F" crack spretty well show that taking away uber planes just makes the next one down the NEW uber plane.

The La7 and Spit XVI perk wouldn't have helped much, I'm afraid

Yeah, there will always be a king of the pile... it's just a matter of how much more 'uber' it is than the next one down the list.

Where do you see that info Sim?

Ya know.. I really haven't been having that much trouble with the hurri 2.

hurri 1 is harder to kill or get off you.

The landed kill totals? Oh, I just meant watching the kill messages float by...." XXX has landed 4 kills in a Hurri2C,"  "YYY has landed 7 kills in a Hurri 2C" -- that kind of stuff.

Far as I know, only HTC can split kills by both Plane AND arena. Rest of us only can get stats on kill totals for all arenas combined.

I saw a guy land (well whatever) 26 in a Panzer last night.  Shading?

Spawn camping, most likely.

He was in a GV, of COURSE he was spawn camping, silly fool!

yeah I know nothing about GVs.  The only time I notice them is when I'm dropping bombs or 20mm on them.

[Irwink!]

I don't think anyone's ever going to solve the "problem" of X aircraft being superior to Y aircraft. Not unless there's only one choice available to everyone. And I also don't think too many real life fighter pilots would opt to take out an inferior plane for "the sport of it". I understand that this is not life and death, but the same feeling will always exist with cartoon pilots also I believe. I have enjoyed flying an ME109F in EW. It is nice not to worry too much about LA's and what not bouncing me. I've mostly been messing with GV's the past few weeks, but may get more into fighters again now that the arena's are split. For now the ME109 will probably be my choice. Whatever, I am most successful at getting myself killed so it doesn't make that much difference to any bad guys near me.

well, perking the hurri2c in the EWA would help in setting the tone.  I mean you still have guys upping hurri2c's in that arena "just to HO" because the hurri2c is unperked.  No other plane in there is a threat in a HO that is not already perked.  Not that HO's bother me as I rarely ever get hit by them, but it would set a tone in the EWA of the "dogfight first" whch it is already close to!  No other unperked plane in that set has that kind of firepower!
