Greetings from the Central Wastelands!

We are very excited this week as we have introduced the first set of beta testers to Auto Assault and will continue to do so in the coming weeks and months. It’s not too late to sign-up! Visit http://www.plaync.com/aa_beta.html to register.

Our website at www.autoassault.com has undergone a slight makeover, featuring new art from the game, as well as a new entry in our Spring-Loaded Action month of wallpapers with the Longbow Rocket Launcher and we have updated our weekly forum poll (http://boards.autoassault.com).

This week’s new recon feature of Auto Assault takes a look at hazard mode (http://www.autoassault.com/recon/recon_feature_hazardmode.html), a special mode players can engage when they are faced with truly overwhelming odds with even more overwhelming firepower.

MMORPG.com’s Richard Duffek recently toured NCsoft’s Austin facility (http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/setview/features/loadFeature/75/gameID/149/) and interviewed Auto Assault’s Assistant Producer, Todd “Guinn” Keister (http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/setview/features/loadFeature/74/gameID/149/).
