When we do get sound mods i hope they will be dynamic sounds and not just loops of varying intensity.
The stock engine sounds might not be perfect, but on the luftwaffe aircraft they are dynamic and that enables me to fly with full CEM without looking at the gauges.
Take a 110 for a ride, start a long, shallow glide from 3km or so of altitude, pull power to idle and lower pitch as far as it goes, then push it back up. Repeat a few time, letting the propeller angle settle before you change it again and you'll see exactly what i mean.
It's like the engines are talking to me and once i get used to (or reminded of, during cruise to the target) how a certain RPM range sounds i can work that manual prop pitch without ever looking at the gauges again for the duration of the mission.
Anything less than dynamic sounds with similar abilities is probably something that i wouldn't use, regardless of how much better they might sound.
