Everything I have hit with shriekers of the gryphon either crashed within 60 seconds or was basically dead (as in no engines/controls).

Nerfing the shikra loadoutwise won't change anything regarding it's agility. The shikra outruns, -accelerates and -turns every Jet, it has to have another downside. If it gets your loadout, the 40 tratnyr can allow you to shoot down 20 jets, plus you still have 400 rounds of "i fuck your engine in one shot and controls in 2" 30mm.

@sh4rP-.- I really dislike the idea of the shikra getting the best loadout of all jets. IMO it's agility needs to be countered by a loadout that doesn't allow you to go through 10 jets before needing to rearm.

Jet gameplay is just plain boring right now. You have to buy a shikra in order to be able to do something against a possible enemy shikra. It is the fastest and most agile jet of the bunch, which makes it really boring to fly. Also, if you get behind a shikra in a wasp or a gryphon, the shikra is going to be at 800-900 km/h in a couple of seconds, whereas any other jets get to maybe 600km/h in the same time.

Same rules could apply to forcefully selling vehicles if they become unavailable to buy due to low player count.

That's an issue with Arma though, not KotH.

Welcome to the grindfest that is V10.

The thing is, if you unlock the navid at level 1, everyone that is just interested in killing things and does not like a specific weapon will use the navid.

This has nothing to do with KotH. It's a bug in the main game.

Why are weapon costs not dependent on effectiveness ? Isn't it a bad Idea that the Ak-12 costs 60k (1-2 shots nearly everything) yet 5.56 rifles (needs up to 10 chest shots to kill opfor spec-op) costs 30k ? Weight does not really matter too much, that was shown by the insane use of the Navid during V9.
