I will quote Bustr here
-1 I don't like his idea, because it will make more people unhappy, and does not improve game play.
The debate is that he can't explain why forcing people to fly old planes makes the game better. He just keeps repeating that's better. But why is having 20% of the folks in la7s and Mustangs killing the 50% in P-39s and P-40s "better" ? think about this nonsense. Vet pilots who rack up lots of kills, hence lots of Perk points, will now have an even greater advantage as 80% of the Melee arena pilots will be forced into mid and early war planes. And this is better game play?
There are really only 4 super planes in the game. 262, arodo, B-29, and ME-163. They are heavily perked. Like the TigerII is.
As a category there is no shortage of diversity in the late war planes set, or in their use. So his claim there is a problem that needs to be fixed is "Fake News". There is no problem, hence his idea is not a solution to it. In short, there is no reason that having a uniform distribution of plane use, or a left shifted one, as he proposes, is better for anything.
