TS3 worked great for me yesterday. I turned down my engine sound to about 25% in the Main Menu and that permitted me to hear other players as clearly as if they were in the next room. Teamed up with "tyxxxx" (both in Spit Ia's) over the Channel to mix it up with 2 109's. Noticed my Spit seemed a little sluggish - possibly due to two huge holes in my port wing.....or maybe it was the missing aileron. LOL Plus tyxxxx informed me I was trailing smoke -- a good time to withdraw. Heading back to Hawkinge with tyxxxx flying top cover I was jumped by a 109; possibly one of the Channel Luftwaffe crew that spotted my smoke trail. The beauty of Teamspeak came into play when tyxxxx called "Break NOW" and I watched cannon tracer streak by to starboard as I veered to port. Tyxxxx chased the 109 off my tail, paving the way clear for Hawkinge. Or so I thought. A 3rd Spitfire formed up on my tail......and riddled me with .303's!!!!!!
As I skillfully manoeuvred my stricken Spit into a smoking hole in the earth, I related this turn of events to tyxxxx still giving chase to the 109. The audio fidelity of TS3 once again proved itself as I could distinctly hear tyxxxx chuckling and saying "Well, that sucks!"
