YES! It may be not realistic but I like to hear everything from outside. |

I would like to learn what the community thinks about the fact that in cockpit and engine running we still can hear external sounds like the engines of other planes, flak explosions, ...

Well I cant speak for the merlins but modern 109 Pilots talk of how quiet the 109 is, so ya why not.

Can't vote as the questions are loaded towards a specific outcome for the poll.
You should have had. "Yes, but only where sound(s) could realistically be heard under the ambient conditions." Cheers! |

Just curious if you have ever actually flown a real aircraft. If you have, then you'd realize that you can hear all sorts of sounds outside the cockpit.

I AGREE...with your observation here, Skoshi Tiger...if the sounds heard from outside the cockpit are "realistically" represented, then fine...they should be heard. The machine gun's (being fired) can be heard over the engine. Ive read that, being hit by AP makes a different sound then HE...as 50 cal and 20mm make different sounds. Anyway...I think the point is made. |

since in a real plane you might feel the flaps and landing gear but are missing that opportunity here, sound is the next best alternative.

However, there is some sense in aboves post. Generally I'd prefer the sounds to be REALISTIC If that means not hearing or hearing external sounds in specific planes I don't care. What I find utterly disturbing is opening the canope and hearing literally all sounds around me. Wind needs to be much stronger and probably the engine as well. The sound engine could be much better and to some degree I fear that some will cheat and exploit this again like in the old IL-2. ! THIS ! |

Realistic in that you can hear whats going on around your plane, right?
And gun sounds are a no brainer. I guess that most just haven't been around the types of weaponry we have in game but there is very little on this earth that can totally drown out the sound of an M240b, M2, or 25mm cannon. And Id bet dollars to doughnuts that these piston engines aren't on that oh so short list.
