Now that the dust is settling a bit, we're going to start introducing you to team members that work on Hawken.  The first up is CZeroFive who you've seen posting on the forums. 

 

 

Tell us about yourself:  Who you are, what you do now, and what you’ve worked on. 

 

Hi, I’m CZeroFive. You may call me “Access Violation”, for short. I am a full-time generalist programmer for Hawken. This means that I interact with about every bit and piece of the code, though I primarily focus on game-play programming.

 

What specifically have you contributed to Hawken’s development?

 

I’ve contributed a lot of behind-the-scenes work to the server and client, as well as integrate functionality for both the XB1/PS4 platforms. While you won’t see what I did directly, you will be grateful that it was done.

 

What is your favorite map?

 

I have to say Facility. I’ve spent a lot of time there due to testing in Offline Team Death match!

 

Which is your favorite mech? 

 

G2-Assault. Nothing says fun like spraying an enemy Mech with Dual VULCAN-XT’s!

 

What game(s) do you currently play?

 

I have been playing Final Fantasy XIV, which honestly is a very great and engaging game-play experience. I’m also a huge fan of non-traditional MMO shooters such as PlanetSide 2 and APB: Reloaded.

 

How would you make the games you play better?

 

I would focus on what makes the game fun and expand in a way that positively impacts the community at large. This is key.

 

What’s the best game of all time and why?

 

There’s a special place in my heart for EverQuest. I absolutely love how engaging this game is and how it promotes the community to band together to accomplish goals together.

 

What other games have you worked on and what did you contribute to them? 

 

I’ve worked on APB: Reloaded as Community Support. Through hard work and dedication, I moved my talents over to the Hawken Team where I currently reside.

 

What are your hobbies?

 

Oddly enough, my hobbies are not that far from my job! I love to tinker with code and reverse engineer programs in my spare time. I would consider myself to be a problem solver. I like to make things happen that shouldn’t be possible.

 

What kind of Music do you like?

 

Absolutely love 8-Bit music. It’s great to see so many talented artists that get out there to make ‘beep boops’.

 

What type of movies do you like?

 

Superhero Movies have been awesome lately, so let’s go with that. Not a huge movie fanatic. I am a simple person.

 

What is your favorite meme?

 

http://knowyourmeme....d-with-computer

http://knowyourmeme....s/pepe-the-frog

http://knowyourmeme....en-text-stories

 

What is Love?

Baby don’t hurt me, don’t hurt me, no more.

Cool interview, i'm currently loving the game (nothing beats Nief hunting (since there's always at least one of those glass cannons) with the shotgun of a Brawler). I'm assuming the largest hurdle (not counting getting the pc version up to par) was getting the game to work on console. Now it's just bug fixes and patches before adding new stuff (likely after all versions are on the "same" level).
