What is this all about with moms clipping newspaper articles? Is it some kind of primeval instinct? I keep getting those placed on my desk as well.

Yea, below the avatar would prolly look better. Nice idea!

Oh I dig those textures, nice Delaz~

My anti-adware programs were getting all nervous about the wild tangent stuff :-o

Somebody move this to the spotlight gallery rofl

The next day, Taldren flew me out to their offices and offered me a 37k/year starting pay.

Looking good, maybe a tad too small (judging from the overview shot)?

This should be mandatory to watch before entering any forum.

It's ~4 hours away by car, that means I'll have to relocate. Crytek got a building for accomodation where I will probably live the first month when "I'm on trial" (i wont have to pay for that). Maybe I will get an apartment there or somewhere else in the city afterwards.

It isn't around the corner from home, but the closest, succesful game company we have here (and god knows there aren't many in my surrounding area).

happy b-day hole!

"Are you sitting in front of "the box" again?" - mother

"The computer will kill your eyes" - grandmother

"If your grades go down I will take an axe and destroy your computer" - father

and thousand other things they throw at my head every day. I can't say my parents are very supportive in this prospect.

Maybe the shirt company lets you pick the colour of the shirt, so everybody can get what he wants. If you have to add preset colours, plz don't neglect the traditional colours like black and blue over the trendy ones.

so in ur interview were they like, "man, nice missile silo!" and you had to say "ol made that for me" and they were like "oh, ok" but they looked disapointed.

When I showed them mp_warhead (it wasn't the only map you know..) I told them right away that I haven't made the silo and it was okay. They knew my abilities right from the start, even before the interview.

oh and where is crytek located ?

Coburg, Germany. That's in very northern Bavaria (where the expensive cars and the good beer comes from).

haha na not at all klein, I'm just kidding with maz. Lots of talented ppl here who could get a seat in a games company with willpower and motivation without big problems.

Zappy: Thanks! Just a matter of time until we take over wall street and the pentagon

Yea, you working for a game company perfectly demonstrates that virtually everyone can make it

Thanks everyone!

Not as a full-time level-designer, for now as an internal. It's a paid internship in the company for 1-2 years.

I had my job interview last Monday and Friday evening Chris (Narby) informed me that I got accepted. I will still need to talk to the CEO and work out some contract details on wednesday, but it looks like I will start on October 1st.

I will contribute to Crytek's new project with singleplayer maps, multiplayer maps, map parts or I will work in the game design department. Whatever I like to do and what I'm best at, so this is a real opportunity to me to gain some experience in a professional games studio and to figure out whether I'd like to work in this industry all my life or not. If I like it, I will work my way up, if not, I'll do something else. So, yea, exciting times for me ahead

I saw it! Afterwards he was eaten by underwater snarks
