PC Gamezone did an interview with NetDevil's Scott Brown, project lead of Auto Assault. It is a kind of "road to E3" interview, mostly questions on how much progress AA has made:<blockquote>Q: It seems one of the elements of the current MMOs that has really caught on has been how they are catering to the casual gamer. How will Auto Assault address that?
Scott: Much of our design caters to the casual gamer. You can play most missions in the game solo or in a group. There is no death penalty, you are just returned to your last repair station and play from there. There is little travel time, you can always pull up the world map and go straight to any map you have already unlocked. The combat system has been developed to make the player feel powerful at all times, winning more than losing, and defeating multiple enemies at a time. Our controls are also very easy to learn and should be familiar to anyone who has played vehicle games on the PC.</blockquote>Link: Auto Assault interview on Gamezone
