Eliminate radio chatter sounds in the jets

The jets have a radio chatter sound effect overlayed onto the jet sounds. It's annoying, we already have radio chatter and its coming from real humans :) "how far out are you? we'll be 2 miles back, we'll be 4 miles back, blah blah" and of course it repeats constantly.

Yeah but they don't say things like "Oscar Mike Golf Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Bravo Bravo Quebec One One One, hostiles in Bravo Six"

The Devs have much more important things to do right now and I'm pretty sure that this is low priority.

Adds immersion IMO, dont get rid of it. Or add a new version.

It shouldn't get removed, but it does loop too much. Maybe an option to shut it off is in order.

Yeah low priority for sure, but I thought I would mention it. They are probably using the default bf2 sounds for it.

If anything some thing similar should be added to the ground vehicles for ambience. Any AFV crewman will tell you how confusing it is initially trying to listen to two radios and the vehicle intercom.

I used to be a jetpilot sometimes with a SL or SpecOps on the ground to spot for targets and communication via radio and for me it's fine, but I agree that the loop should be changed and some different messages :)
It's just like in real: You have to filter out the voice you need. Same for the battleground when there is too much noise and many people are yelling commands, etc. you MUST know the right voice / what voice belongs to what person. ;)

<sarcasm>oh wow good idea... man i wish i thought about muting the entire game before, not hearing anything will help my game so much!!</sarcasm>

There is no way that vocal "ambiance" should be added to more vehicles. Listen, I'm a pilot, and I can tell you if you have your radio on a channel the whole point is to be listening to it for information relevant to you, you don't have it on for "ambiance", if your on a useless channel that has no relevance to you, you turn it off, to reduce your mental workload.

Having pointless chatter in the background in a game is not realistic because you already know its useless and is not your teammates, your teammates already provide chatter that may or may not be relevant to you, so the realism is already there.

But as I said, a minor issue, probably not worth the devs time to remove, but *definitely* not worth the devs time to attempt to add anywhere else.
