Your reply just proves that its a game.

It seems to me that slap was supporting your point, not arguing with it?

Also,

There is a drastic diffence between simlating WWII Aircraft and a simulation of WWII.

HT I hear what your saying...and I have no doubt that your position is the correct one. However, I just think if your engine is on, its on. Equivalent volume should be there for everyone. Maybe Im wrong, a fuddy duddy perhaps.....I enjoy the game anyway.

I would bet most of the panzers in the hedge rows of Normandy shut their engine off as they waited to fire.

Is there a difference?

Yes.
They did not turn their engine sounds off while driving.
And I do believe that pilots hadn't that option either

If Im not mistaken they drove to a point of ambush in the hedgerows, shut down the engines and waited in clever concealment. That was the point I was trying to get across. Sorry you missed it.

And in that there is no difference between this game and what actually occured.

Im not sure if it's not you who missed the point.

The discussion did not start about sitting in ambush with your engine off - It's about eleminating your engine sounds completely to gain a advantage while the engine is still running, especially in (but not restricted to) planes.

the last thing a tanker, or any other intelligent combatant would do is turn his power off, thereby disabling himself intentionally in battle. Ive seen alot of players turn their engines off/on at certain instances in dogfights, apparently to gain some sort of angles advantage. Im seriously doubting that any combat pilot intentionally turned his engine on and off to cut some 3D corner in air combat. If there is a recorded instance of it ,I would love to read it.
