Yes, I did fly in the Battle of Britain and after the war played drums in a band. So...I know brownings when I hear them and a snare drum. COD guns sound like a snare drum. My Spit sounded like machine guns when I fingered the firing button. Anything else I can clarify for you...dolt!

You know, there is no rule that says that engine and gun sounds has to sound cool , infact most of the time they're not even close to hollywood or war films and their "cool factor".

Sounds of guns in the planes are pretty much spot on. Also loved the hitting sound of bullets against your own plane -- like stones thrown to a metal plate. Pretty much spot on too. They did a great job as far as I can see in the youtube videos.

Looks really great. I have loved everything about WW2 fighters since I saw my first one...probably a P-40 with shark markings when I was a kid. My dream to actually fly these planes has come true partly due to the efforts of you and your team. Thanks for all your amazing work and for making this 53 year old kid's dreams come true. I'm sure the finished game will be awsome.
OR A LIARRRRRRRRRRRR!

Oh what a coincidence I also flew in the Battle of Britain and played drums in a band. In fact I usually brought my drum-kit into the cockpit and practiced during dogfights. That's just how I roll. I have to say I would sometimes hit my snare as 109s would fire their 20 mm at me and they sounded nothing alike. But of course I haven't flown a 109 personally. Oh except that one time I did, but that's another story.

OK...you got me...I really didn't fly in the Battle of Britain. But I did see the movie! And I don't play the drums. But I like Ringo.
