1- Tell us a little bit about how the mod team got together and started working on things.
*xEROhOUR:* First Strike started way back in August 2005. A handful of guys had an idea, sadly most of them have since gone leaving myself and Dutch Razor as the only original team members. We felt there was a real need to re-organise and structure the mod from the ground up. I went on a recruiting frenzy, persuading some of the talented guys that frequent the BFEditor forums to join our team. That’s where Blitz, our current Mod Leader, joined and soon after the original Galactic Conquest crew also joined along with some former Shattered Faith members. It’s this talented, pro active, and "out of the box"-thinking team that has made this mod what it is. It really is a team effort.
2- Why did you decide to go with a popular Sci-Fi setting rather than the modern day setting of many Battlefield mods?
*TALON:* I think a lot of Battlefield mods out there don't really change the core game a whole lot, they tend to be more focused on adjusting the dynamic of the gameplay, increasing the realism aspect of the game for instance. By working with this particular Sci-Fi universe we are given the opportunity to totally rebuild the game from the ground up and turn it into something very different. It’s also a setting that we the developers are very passionate about, resulting in our best possible work as we want to create the best possible game, a game made by the fans for the fans.
