The most funny thing is, virtually no one here has experience with real mgs and what they sound like in a "vehicle" - still they claim to know, based on yt.

lol

Oleg,

In IL-2 tracers seem to be much thinner.
What is the reason to switch to thicker tracers in SOW ?

Speak for yourself, most here are of a mature age and have seen service in one form or another.

Those that post YT clips are the easy ones to spot it goes hand in hand.

What I find annoying Hecke is that you ask questions that nobody else is bothered about and do it in a way that somehow gets a response from Oleg thus wasting his time and pulling his answer away from some of the questions that I actually would like to know the answer to. phew... And then you are just plain rude back.

You have hogged him on absolutely nothing, bl00dy GRASS render distance. IT'S A FLIGHT SIM - YOU'LL BE IN THE AIR.

I'm shouting because you do this every week. Just SHUT UP!


Oleg, please put this bloke on ignore.

This is simply inaccurate. Here is a trailer from circa the original IL-2 era:

Compare that to the video posted today for SOW.

Now, Hecke, the right thing to do here is to acknowledge that you were wrong on this.

I noticed this, because if you are going to Heathrow airport it is a fantastic shortcut to beat the traffic on the motorway and come into the airport from the perimeter. You will drive right between these reservoirs.

You are quite correct, a minor bug but none the less a bug.

It has to be a camera not near a plane as any engine noise will overpower it.

Well, of course.

I guess that means I have a decent sound card. Sweet.

Ok, I might have been wrong.

And now? Do you guys take back your insults?


Actually, the questions I have don't have to be your questions too to have the right to be asked.

Excellent sample Mr. Maddox ! I can't wait for the next update and the sim !! This sound seems very much real than IL-2's !!

One question: am I wrong, or at the end of the video (last second), when the Hurri overshoots its target, another MG sound is heard, different from the 0.303 Brownings? Something like a "tacatacatac..." . Is a Heinkel's MG15 shooting to the Hurri?

Keep it up !!
