The rights of others who are not as good as you and I are! Too many people that are flying this game are struggling just to get a kill. It doesn't matter if your plane or mine is perked, I seriously doubt that I would ever run out of perk points. But what about the others that are not so fortunate or blessed as we are?
You aren't automatically entitled a right to everything, not to mention this game's hardly a democracy in anyway.
This game never started out from a perfect equilibrium of checks and balances and thus, changes will be made in its steps of evolution - we've seen how some planes free, were eventually perked. There were changes, and there will be changes - you gonna challenge every eventual change that even slightly shadows some people's notion of "I wanna do everything I want", as a breach of human rights?
The only difference is whether the source of the change is from the developers themselves, or if someone else makes a suggestion. If the developers think it's a good idea, they'll make the changes whether or not some people think it is bad. You gonna challenge HTC and threaten to quit, then? Hey, it's your loss.
You'll need to come up with a better excuse/grounds for saying 'no' to a mere proposition on improving the status of the game for a common good. Especially when it seems you understand not even the least bit of what is said in this thread. There are research materials, some studies, and reasons why it is for the better. Read it, please.
If you have something to disagree from the specifics of this proposition, then I'd gladly accept a more intelligent conversation with you. At the moment, we're all going around in circles with this metaphysical bullshi* on "rights".
While the 38 is my main ride, it's not the only thing I fly. On occasion I do fly the P-51D, but there is no challenge to flying it. When I am in a TnB mood I will fly early model planes. But the 38 is my main ride, and having to pay for it just because it's a late war plane is just plain stupid.
What's plain stupid, is that the reasons why late-war planes are perk material, are already given. Which you either did not read, or dismissed it without a logical procedure of thinking.
Yeah they already have planes with high perks, and for a good reason. Perks are based on how much the plane type upsets the balance of the game play.
The point is, (1) how much game balance is disrupted, (2) by which planes, (3) to which degree, (4) for what reason. You think all planes, which are not currently perked, are same in everything to the same degree?
If you really want to do something useful, then train people to fly those early warplanes so they can deal with the late war planes. An early warplane in the right hands is every bit as deadly if not deadlier then the average pilot in a late warplane. Many times I have seen people flying early model planes and just kicking behinds on late war planes.
You're talking of something irrelevant. Not to mention, making a typical assumption of how faults derived from the system, should always be fixed by the individual, instead of touching the system itself.
Also, you're contradicting yourself, as you seemed to be so concerned about those "not so fortunate or blessed as we are" when starting off.. and now, suddenly your closing the statement hangs about how we should train everyone into a pilot good enough to be deadly in early war planes?
Why, if that's useful, I'd reckon perking the late war planes to balance the arena out, and then training pilots to become skilled enough to earn the incredibly high, woppin'
THREE perk points when they want to fly those planes, would be even more useful. No?
Why not? If we do that, we:
1) motivate people to learn to fly better, to get more chances to fly their favorite planes, without having to pay punitive costs to fly them...
2) place a check upon the late war monster planes which people flock to for their versatility, which usually makes a stale and dull environment..
3) place a heavier check upon people who choose late-war fighters for the sole purpose of kamikazeing themselves, instead of learning to bomb and rocket, strafe
4) promote the use of free planes, the '43~'44 fighters with a wider variety but smaller performance margin, than compared to '44~'45 planes with smaller variety and wider performance margin
5) promote the use of dedicated ground attack planes, as the late-war fighter-bombers with piles of ordnance, would be perked lightly.

Read the thread, sahib. And then come up to me for a counter-punch.
