That dude looks so tired. Must be he is really putting in the hours getting everything balanced for beta. I wonder how long until it is out.

This is a most bizarre MAX week. These look nothing like the concept art.

Re: Developer Spotlight with Josh Sanchez


I liked the question about "What are you interested in seeing tested in Beta?" That's an interesting look into what they're working on that they aren't sure about.

Also, it's really interesting how every dev featured so far (and Higby as well, from answers in his reddit AMA) started in QA. Makes you wonder if there's any other way to become a game dev.

QA gives you insight into the process and the products and teaches you how games are developed. I can see how it is good experience when moving on to other roles in product development.

That said I work in project management and design in software and didn't work in QA. However some of the work they do is useful for my job as well and is beneficial that I learn it. It definitely helps and would be hugely advantageous.

Plus if many of the developers did go through that they may view it as a rite of passage and frown upon those that didn't like they are missing some vital part of their career development.

I know, right? And what's up with the NC getting two and VS getting none?

As an NC player, I see no problems with this idea...

VS need a target rich environment, this is good.

I for one am glad to see another of the elusive Terran Republic developers. I enjoyed Josh's webcast on weapons, hope to hear more from him. I too am anxious to see maxes at work. Or just to see MAXes! Hope that dual cycler max weapon is as awesome as it looks!

I'm sorry but I believe we are all overlooking the most important part of all this, this man has the nose of a Hawk!

This is very good news people, hawks have very keen eyesight and I can only assume he shares their airborn superior view of the affairs of men. Hawks also most likely make good game designers due to their good eyesight and general fastidiousness.

I also saw fit to create this to give a better insight into how he is protecting our game for us, pecking away at bad ideas with winged ferocity.



Ps. I really need to put this effort into working...

I like the sounds of Max units so far... I can tell i'm going to be addicted to playing Max class, especially if they give VS Max units the blinking ability suggested on these forums.

(or jump jets again)

Oh, i can also see why a "Post pictures of yourself IRL" thread isn't popular in these forums, you guys are cruel! lol

Dig the format of the “Q & A” seems reminiscent of the Bridgekeeper from the Holy Grail.
