Well I just wonder if resources should not be spent on making the ordinary communication via menus better. If I'm not mistakens most DCS users fly in SP and not in MP. And one thing that's very frustrating is accessing the communications in VR, since the menu options cannot be assigned to buttons and you cannot see your Keyboard (F1 - F10).

As for a VoiceAttack like feature, that depends. Windows speech recognition is not available if you're living in a minor country, so it might not work if ED doesn't provide it's own speech recognition engine. And that I guess takes a lot of work. On the upside you could limit the words recognized.

WSR is available anywhere as long as you speak English, or one of the languages it's available in. It might not be available in your native language (or accent, I have trouble getting it to work reliably due to this), but in NATO military aviation, you'd speak English anyway. Bummer for those who don't speak it, but developing accurate speech recognition for a language is quite a task.

Better menus would be great, but they should be made, at minimum, with VA support in mind. So, get rid of this "dynamic" BS, it not only makes it hard to make a VA profile, it also plays hell with muscle memory. Standardized, fixed comms menus are the way to go.

VoiceAttack supports the alternatives provided by MS. I haven't gotten around to try them though.
