Very, Very disappointing.

Sound is also part of the emmersion, not only graphics.

I can hardly even hear if I am accellerating...

Anyway..had to get it out of my system.
I agree (I've always been disappointed in the original IL-2's stock sounds as well). Unfortunately, there is a portion of the CloD/IL-2 community that seems to be happy with the sounds in both games. My conclusion over the years is that you cannot reconcile the stock sound purists and those like you and me who desire better sound samples in these games. The current hope for CloD is that the soon-to-be-released Software Development Kit (SDK) can be used to make alternative sound packs to replace the stock sounds. I believe I have already seen a video of the CloD Hurricane with a set of experimental sounds from Jafa (of IL-2 sound-modding fame), so I think there is hope. A number of us have also been requesting alternative sound pack support for the original Il-2 from DT.
