Here's hoping this becomes our first community sticky.  I'll see if I can't find something to add.

Here's all the other interviews I can recall.  Most of them rehash the same info over and over, but you might pick out a new detail here and there:

At E3 we'll be demoing the game for G4TV, on the 8th I think (don't know the exact date).  We might have more announcements and stuff around that time.  

As for the original post of this topic, here's a small piece Ars Technica did on us (no new info here sorry): http://arstechnica.c...n-interview.ars

Reading that Arstechnia article was quite informative, especially with the mentioning of the fuel gage and the pace of the gameplay.

The slower pace is a great idea as it keeps the heavy mech feel rather than it just being another fast paced fps shooter in battle mechs!  Having limited use of thrusters is also another top idea, which keeps combat interesting!

Lastly...that article poses a question from me!
Were any of you Hawken Devs previously working on Project Offset before Intel killed it?

It's said in one of the interviews that the four "main founders" met while working on Project Offset.

In one of the interviews, the idea of porting to consoles worries me.

It's a bad choice to compromise the game for the consoles. This should start on PC and later on move to consoles. However the consoles you should seek must be the 720 and PS4. The current consoles are just too weak.
