That's why I think the slider for engine volume both internal and external should be disabled, to prevent this kind of gamey crap.

Every other sound let it as it is, but the engine sounds of external and internal sources shouldn't be allowed to be set by the person.

Yeah. You'd think that with cartoon planes there would be more realism eh?

Just grab to 30k, turn your engine off, and glide down to the sneaky buggers, that'll tick em off

I can only imagine the other creative things you sneaky AH'ers have come up with.

Not half as many as the infamouse queen of gamers

I heard if you map your bail out button to your joystick trigger you can maintain a better score

Boom and zoom with the engine off. (at least the first pass)

Well I tried it. Lasted for 10 minutes before changing it back. Its a load of crap.

First all it was too confusing and too much unecessary noise. If they're in that close you had better know where they are other than sound. I'd rather here the important sounds such as flaps and my engine.

Having friendly plane sounds just confuses the issue more.

I'll stay with the old fashio snap views.

Thanks for the try though ;-)

LOL if only you knew the half of it. You know I'v been here a few years in 1 name or another. Well, 3 names actually. So in that time I'v learnt a trick or 2 but you know what? None of the "Tricks",as it's put, actually saves you.
You are either a better or more experiences fighter pilot than the other guy or you ain't. You can either High Alt level bomb or you can't or more to the reall point, can't be arsed. You can either pork a field in 2 passes or you can lawn dart in or go up with the bomb you dropped. You can read the map and all it's Gv / Cv tell tail signs or you can't. You can either be a 5 Inch newbie or a 8 Inch gunner. You know when it's the right time to turn a Cv or you don't. You know how to level bomb Cv's or you don't. Are you or the threadie getting where I'm coming from?

Here's a suprise it NEVER not ever gets night time in AH2. Your gamma/contrast/brightness/video card is either set right or it just plain isn't. (You should see twilight and dawn)

Sure enough you can tweak the sound so you hear VOX in a dog fight and hear planes 500 yrds out with ALL the friendlies toboot but you iether got what it takes OR YOU AIN'T, an I'm still getting there.

Oh, I was taking the pi$$ about setting views but you (Hammy) won't be suprised about the amount of guys that don't actually do basic settings as defined in the "Help" files.

As for me spilling my guts on the BB's about all the other "Tricks of the Trade"...yer right. Call me shell-fish but if I'v discovered a "TIP" or a "Trick", which ever view you take, I ain't sharing. Let the newbie pay 5 yr subs then he'll be as wise as me, for all the help it is.

If a con appears to have "Stevie Wonder SA", I'll get to 1.5k and chop throttle. 9 times out of 10, they're shot down.

Pfffft...shows what you know...I do all those things and my engine sound is all the way up.
