Meet the OMG! Team: Danny02
Welcome in the “Meet the OMG Team” section where we will introduce you to the different members of the Online Modding Group. It is always exciting to know more about the people that work on something you play and therefore we thought it might be a good addition to our regular updates. This week we will introduce you to Danny02, one of our two game programmer that works on a new game mode for upcoming content update.
Hi, my name is Daniel "Danny02" Heinrich. I'm 20 years old and live in Hof (Germany) where I'm studying Computer Science in my second year. I am working at Crysis Wars EX as Game Programmer. My job is to develop a new gamemode that is specified by the Game Designers and assure that all things work out as planned. My work include besides scripting the whole gamemode in LUA a lot of testing and working closely with the other Programmers. Crysis Wars EX is my first big project I'm working on and so I hope to gain a lot of experiences by working in a talented team like this. I'm looking forward to the release of the new game modes and hope that you all will enjoy playing them.
