This to me is the greatest part of the coming update.
The single biggest problem for me flying in Realistic mode is the lack of an effective tool for helping me fly the 'edge' of the flight envelope. All I had to go on was the 'stall' text blinking at me. While embroiled in a fight,the last thing Im looking at is this blinking warning of imminent departure from flight.
As a Warbirds and Aces High vet, I used the custom sound setup to make the stall 'sounds' the most audible sound in the sound matrix. This allowed me to really fly that 'fine edge' that a TnBer needs to succeed.
Having a new audible clue about the G situation will be the best of all the new updates for my style of play.
Hopefully as you pull closer to departure (stall), the sound will increase in volume or otherwise change in pitch or such. This would allow us to keep our eyes on the con, and use our ears for the added auditory clue.
I even customized my own stall sounds to include a structural 'creaking' and increased 'wind' sound. It was not only a very effective tool for flying the edge, but also GREAT for immersion! I doubt we will ever be able to customize our sounds here, but just knowing they have worked on something stall-sound wise for us is great.
