Hi,
I am blown away by the mini movies Barfly has done, the dynamics and feel of the BoB are there, he has done very well, but also puzzled by the fact that the sounds are all wrong, in the http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_htwfzAgX_Q&feature=g-vrec&context=G2690239RVAAAAAAAAAw movie the Spits and Hurris and MG15s sounds are canon firing sounds and not fast firing machine guns, we see an internal cockpit MG15 with sound from the BoB movie but externally the Do17's are shooting their MG15's with cannon sounds. A bofors gun is firing with fast firing machine gun sound when it should be slow boom boom 2 per second ..ish

In cockpit sound in the 109E is a gentle humm ! not the sound of a muffled DB601, ...helmet would do little to stem the noise anyway.

I also wonder why the Luftwaffe are wearing something akin to an American airforce helmet, goggles and mask. Nothing at all like what they had. The Hurricane pilot also has the same kit on. The MG15 has an American aircraft gunsight, in all I am puzzled by the American theme here. Luft groundcrewman has a peaked cap on. Aircrew have sort of inflated flightsuits. Is this what supposed accurate CoD delivers or Barflys own take on things ?

He has likewise in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9KLw8rMY7s&feature=relmfu

why ?

Considering buying CoD assuming the issues are fixed after one year but now I am not so sure.

Keep in mind that Barfly uses extensive after-editing in his movies, basically all your points can be attributed to that.
