Yes, let's build this monument to failure where players come in to a multiplayer game and are effectively isolated from communicating with other players.  Squads of established players make use of third party software like ventrilo to easily work around this and prey upon the isolated newbies until there is just a couple of warring squads left accusing each other of cheating by using third party communication software and starting endless bbs flame wars.

Exactly.  :aok

If they do no vox I want the shotgun most of them carried with them to shot planes when they were side by side.

Just think of VOX as a concession to gameplay and move on, it will not make much difference in the scheme of things and I doubt it will effect my immersion much :aok

I like the old planes..
Just get them in the arena.
If pilots can talk to each other; who cares?
It's new, lets do it :aok
This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron.—Dwight Eisenhower, April 16, 1953

I was about to post  my thoughts in this thread but I can't say it any better  than Pyro.

Cmon you guys....use a little commen sense here. It is a GAME. The GAME has to be designed to be playable and fun. If you want REAL LIFE go fly a REAL airplane.
