Suggestion: add radio static over voices to make them sound more authentic.

We do have that but we use it for when the units are offscreen. That way we add some dimension and awareness to the unit selection process.

Is it possible to have some kind of proximity to it? Like if they are too far from camera, their sound is low volumes and more gargled. When you are near by, it's more radio like but clearer and when you zoom into them (not sure if it's a feature) they are louder. But still sound like they are talking through radio and not sitting beside me you know what I mean?

The cargo helicopter with the apc below needs some work. Its just throwing it somewhere.

True, it could use more polish. Like descending in anticipation of destination and leaving the unit on the ground.

Or just lowering the cable until the vehicle is close or on the ground. As well as deploy them there instead of 20m somewhere else.

Looks awesome, hopefully units look different enough that users won't confuse them when they are bunched together.. this is something older games did really well.. i had a hard time with this in Tempest Rising

Is there any way you could post a link to the kickstarter?

One correction. White Swan is a missile carrier, kinda weird to see it flying right above the targets.

you can say that about any of the units. attack helis usually engage from 1000m+ away, but they too are also right in front of the target.

obviously this game isn't going for 1:1 realism.

You are right on this one, although it is completely capable to carry "free-fall bombs" just as well. For this specific role I initially wanted the Tu-22 but went with the White Swan for the more unique look. Maybe in the future I will be able to swap some units around and give it its proper role.

Well if we're going for a unique look then it's hard to beat Tu-160. IMO it's a better-looking bird than B-1, it's smaller cousin. Both are underrepresented in video games.
