Updated information and new Mission screenshots await!

Video Media:

Rooster Teeth Video starring Captain Dynamic

One of our goals at NCsoft NorCal has been to get Mission Architect into the hands of as many creative people as possible to see what content they come up with. An obvious choice was Rooster Teeth, creators of the famous Red vs. Blue machinima series. They enjoyed it so much, that they decided to document their adventures using Mission Architect in a three episode video series. Watch Episode 1 which introduces viewers to Captain Dynamic, a real-life super person, and his quest to use the Mission Architect to advance his image and his career. Episodes 2 and 3 will follow!
