Rivieras with Rail-guns.
MMORPG has posted an Auto Assault Interview with Ryan Seabury. Bo Bice has never sung to Ryan Seabury. It's also unlikely he has ever sung the following:

" Ryan Seabury is the Design Director for Auto Assault, the second MMORPG from NetDevil who were also responsible for Jumpgate. Now published by NCSoft, NetDevil faces some tall challenges on their second title and have entrusted the direction of their title to this man. We use this chance to see who he is and where he is going. "

Mustangs With Machine Guns.
Pro-G Gaming has posted an Auto Assault Interview featuring Ryan Seabury. Ryan Seacrest, not to be confused with Ryan Seabury has not returned our calls. We are confident he would not have said this:

"Pro-G sat down with NetDevil's Design Director Ryan Seabury to chat
about the game. In the last part of our interview, we talk about the
final stages of development, casual gamers, Blizzard and destructible
environments."

Boomtown.com gets the lowdown on how hazard mode works in Auto Assault with Senior Dev Ryan Seabury. Also covered is class-race interaction, trade skills, and the concepts behind "overheating."

A renegade editor driving a fission-powered garbage truck bristling with missiles reportedly wrote this:

[Boomtown:]Are there real differences between the skills of the three races for a same class? For instance, will a mutant healer be any different than a biomek healer?

Ryan Seabury: Absolutely.. We wanted each archetype class to fulfil the same combat roles, but achieve them through mechanically different ways...for each race, the skills are flavoured based on the culture of survival for that race to illustrate, using the healer classes. Human Engineers will employ beams and energy based repairing, since Human tech is highly based on light and shielding etc. Mutant Shaman will manipulate the Contamination to create phase-formed vegetation that replenishes nearby allies and Biomek Constructors deploy nanobot technology and automated mini-mechs and bots to help their friends. And of course, there are many other skills that each of those classes has beyond just repairs that are different from each other.

I'm thinking Queen Antonia ought to know a gnoll from a drakota!
Gamecloud has two more "Everquest 2: Quest for Antonia" finalist interviews for those of you that like to see hot women with give blithe answers to questions about gaming. Before you start with the letters, I think its cool when women play MMORPGs, and I'm sure there's plenty of hot ones that know their stuff. But these ain't it... case in point:

"Gamecloud - Do you play Everquest II yourself or any other PC or video games?

Carin Ashley - Yes, I do play Everquest II and other PC/video games. Everquest II is a unique experience in that it keeps you entertained and challenged at the same time.

Gamecloud - What opportunities do you think will open up for you if you win the Quest For Antonia contest?

Carin Ashley - I think winning the Quest for Antonia will open up many opportunities that I would not otherwise be able to experience without the opportunity provided by such a cutting-edge company as Sony Online Entertainment. You never know the future until you go after the possibilities and from there the opportunities can be endless."
