Hi,

Is there the possibility for some pilots to hear you sneaking in their 6 as I hve seen many time online some of pilots flying straight and level breaking at a certain range (300m ?) as I was closing in for a kill ?

Or was that some kind of IA SuperUber instinct ?

No answer...

I am I the only one playing with external sound tune to min ( I am jumping out of my chair each time I am hit in the tail section - the resonance effect is really well settled thx to to evil's devs ?

did you have outside view on?

also the spits have mirrors

and in general all planes have good backwards visibility

Sound is too clear ATM. You can hear someone behind you when they open fire. You might also be able to hear their engine if they get close enough.

I think I've shot down about 10 Spits online that didn't know I was tucked up right behind them. So I haven't noticed this at all.
I've also been bounced once in a Spit and never heard anything, in fact when all the damage messages came up I thought I had messed up the CEM. Then I noticed the tracers.

I hope it stays this way. I hated it that in IL2 you can hear the engines, as this favours the T&B crowd. I remember when they took it away in one patch and some of the famous online aces in those days suddenly became easy meat.

Yeah what an awfull years of bad playing we just went across

Thankfully to all your comments I am now re-assured that it is not the case here anymore.

Probably those were IA's genius and my radio was tunned to loudly on the BBC frequency
