Think this may be the first time they've done somehting like this. Hopefully they'll do this next time the prize is a superplane. Then maybe those things will actually be useful. God no, that's unfair and completely unbalances the game. If you want a superplane then you better pay and earn it by being a real flying ace. I find this only acceptable if said superplane would be a top 20 reward. No it wouldn't. A lvl 5 R-101 (for example) is 1021 points. By comparison, a lvl 9 Su-37 is 1036 points. And it would still cost 14 million credits or more to take the R-101 to lvl 6. Right now the superplanes are borderline useless unless you're a huge cash player. Spending hundreds of dollars on the game does not make you a "real ace." It just makes you a guy with a lot of free cash and time.

Cst rating don't mean anything in the game, all they detirmine really is how powerfull the SP weapons are from the start.

Furthermore I barely spent any money on this game and I can easely compete in the tournaments with the top tier "money spenders". Earning money is not hard at all when you are good. Having expirience is the key in this game and frankly for the whole series, that's what makes you a real ace.
