The game should play around 2030 instead

NicSO:
Tech in game is generally comparable with present time, mostly (except alien tech).

Progress go so fast, it reason to change time.

Sorry for continuing offtopic, but consider technology growth in the world not as linear increase nor as exponential growth but as sum of sigmoid functions. 

It basically explains why technology in that world didn't go so far from today. They improved everything as much as they can but they are stuck at limits and without pushing those limits (by some sudden revolutionary inventions or, you know, alien invasion ;) ) they won't have any chance to improve previous technologies.

Its true. Technologies do not go by same step
But, we can see progress by our eyes
For example - mobile phones. What kind of phone you had five years ago?
Computer hardware have stabile progress, it's one of main reason to humanity progress
And think we do not have a good progress now it mistake
Every year is made a lot of scientific discoveries

I understand that this date (2084) is used not just
But, I urge you to be realistic, in 2084 such aliens will not be able to fight with people
Look by real weapons, Now there are so many terrible weapon power. Its realy fear me
For example, take sniper/heavy rifle with power tip and the plasma (the exact name of the material do not know) can pierce tank armor and shoot by people by simple ammo
and other hard weapon - naval gun can do through a sieve of a heavy tank. This gun do it with ufo too))

p.s. Its my opinion. sorry for my english

NicSO:
But again, if there was great war on Earth, even worse than ww2, lets say tech stagnated :)

btw. I would like to see cyborgs in the game, battle robots, more nasty aliens...

The games technology mostly look like it is about 20 year more advenced than us at the max! I'm right know asking around about the game. How this and that works. If I would have a little bit of free time(I don't have a lot). Maybe I could help them make a few models what looks a little more "sci-fi". Mostly would touch weaponry, battle armors, vehicles buildings. But if you think about it it's really pretty hard to do it... My main concern isn't even this. But the model quality not really consistent. The game got a lot better from 2.3(I dropped it after about 3 triest with 2-3 missions each.). So first of all they could rise the average model level to the level of weapons/soldiers cause a few things looks awful in considertion of those. A few soldier heads could be made also better. I'm not so good at modelling humans so I don't really want to try to do that. But I think I can work on weapons and props. Maybe UGV models. But firstly I will need to complete the game. Wanna see what is how working so I could have a real insight. Cause there is virtually not many good descriptions in the game(like IR goggles, through wall weapons). A few weapons also awfully balanced(plasma weapons, HMG, Grenade launcher(far too realiable and unrealistic)). So if I have enough time and devs accept it. I will try to contribute for the game. But as of yet I don't know how things works, and what they need first. Also first of all they should get all the features working. Like UGVs, campaign missions, advenced facilities, AI. So after those are really done. They could look into things like this.
