When and How did you start playing Auto Assault?
I can’t remember exactly how or when I found AA. I was looking for a Beta to participate in, and have been here since then.

How did you choose you Avatar’s name?
Heheh. Well one of my past musical projects have had a kind of hellish theme to it, and its too similar sounding to my RL name to not use. I also pre-empted that a lot of players may use the word hell in their name so I added THISIS to the start.

Why did you choose your main Faction & Class?
I played a Humie a bit in Beta…didn’t really get me into the game..too boring…switched to Meks and have been a Mek since. I guess my ingame character reflects me in RL in some ways. Meks were the least popular. 🙂

Do you prefer PvE or PvP?
Even though I get frustrated, it gotta be PVP!
PVE mobs can be a one pony trick, but you can’t predict every attack in a PVP battle. You can only prepare. Thats the challenge, and victory is sweet.

Do you craft? What is your favorite crafted item (yours or others)?
Just started taking crafting seriously, uptill now it was just that thing you do when you are bored of PVP/PVE.
Theres a lot of good crafters out there already who have shared their recipes with all. Thanks to them, anyone can now experiment with modding items which is a neccessary part of aquiring a good build.

What is your weapon of choice?
I still have yet to find a better Front weapon than the Thermobaric gun. What it lacks in Penetration, it makes up for in DPS, refire rate and low heat output.

What is your favorite ride?
Gotta be the Pillage RA-3, especially as I bugged the devs to get it to 137 mph ;). Its not about looks or ease of use. They require skill to drive, but their top speed cannot be beaten. A bit like the Millenium Falcon 😛

Which junk item do you refuse to get rid of?
I have a level 52 Xeno 12mm LMG which got me all the way to level 74’ish. Also Solomon’s Spirit Slammer melee weapon which is a quest reward I think. I still equip it now and again for the bonuses on it.

What is your favorite NPC & location in AA?
Jasmine Jade in Root, she’s post-apocalyptically hot. Gas masks and bikinis..yeah!!
I like the barren wasteland feeling you get in places like Choppin Maul & Grand Junction complete with Twisters. Look Out!!

Who is your Arch-Nemesis in AA (Player or other)?
Have you heard of Insi? lol..there are a few players that are around a lot..some I can beat some I can’t….atm. Its what keeps me playing. Defeat is part of the learning process, and I don’t give up easily.

What is your favorite moment you’ve experienced in AA?
Lots of moments. The most recent being as 4 SONIX crew took out Radian. We owed that 100 ton dog-gorilla some lead. Too bad he’s a bit stingy on the lootz.

Which new AA features would you like to see in the future?
Clan storage space. Also a clan HQ zone on the PVP map (adds bonus to that clans members, whatever map they are on, and has a crafting pit of its own), where clans have to battle in the arena (cross factional clan battles) to claim it every week.

More randomly spawning twisters on certain parts of the GZ map![/p]
