Part 4: Back to the Future - Eikron
What are you most looking forward to in Infantry?
I'd like to play a squad match with MPT. I haven't in well over a month. In truth, I don't really have any expectations for the game anymore. It's just there, and I play it from time to time. I'm much less attached to it, these days.

What do you think Sony should do in order to make Infantry succeed?
I think they should just let the Infantry staff keep plugging away with the new zones, the zone balancing, and the engine and code improvements. The player base is steadily growing, and it will become very popular in due time. I think it'd be unwise for them to start charging for the game, or, God forbid, add in-game advertising.

What new type of zone would you like to see?
I want to see a Mech zone reminiscent of the Btech universe. Either that, or the Space zone Yankee is working on.

How long do you expect to continue playing this game?
Probably for a while. What will change is my activity. Very soon I'll probably only play on weekends. If I do retire, don't expect a big fuss.

How long do you think Infantry will last?
A couple years, at most. Game technology is constantly changing, and Infantry's novelty will inevitably wear off. Sure, I'd like to see Infantry last, but I just don't see that as a reality considering the way the game industry seems to works.

Do you have any other comments, especially to those starting out?
Don't take the game too seriously. I can't stress this enough. The sheer amount of pointless quibbling over in-game politics that I've heard since I started playing Infantry is mind-boggling. And all that nonsense about veterans versus newbies is beyond ridiculous as well. Simply put, none of it matters. It's just a game, is what people so quickly forget. I stopped caring about this game a long time ago, and I've since grown to enjoy it much more. It no longer matters to me if someone thinks I'm good or not, or if someone quits my squad. The fundamental idea is to have fun. If the game ever becomes more than just a game for you, or stops being fun, quit. Quit right away. It really is unhealthy to play, at that point; don't let a simple game consume you.

Would you like to make a custom quote?
I have two favourite quotes. Being a self-indulgent bastard, one of them is mine, and it goes: "AGHH! I know I should never have let my nose hair grow 6 feet long! Now it's hopelessly intertwined with my pubic hair!" Always carry scissors.
My second quote is from Hitman009, and it goes: "Hitman009> stupid key is stuk". Don't ask me why I find that hilarious, I just do.

If you had to go out with either Georgia, BioPlague, ange1ica, or a fruit, who would you pick? :)
Omg, Ashe (ange1ica), of course! She awesome. Lyn (a fruit) is cool too. Why isn't Anna listed? W00t, Crouching Rambo - Hidden Gurlie! I wub them all!
