    Albion Online

    For those who played this and Crowfall, isn't Albion just a more carebear-friendly version of Crowfall that can be played on ipads and has worse combat mechanics/graphics because of it?

    This is why I wish Kegkilla posted more accountant stuff.

    I thought his personal story was great. I loved his character. He bugged out for me though. After i blew up the prydwen he just sits in my town and talking to him just opens trade. I think i broke him mentally.

    Albion Online

    You've basically got the gist of it as far as I know. I don't know how carebear it is now, but originally the game was set up to be a PvP + resource gathering game. If they have a bunch of zones you can gather resources in, then I'm not sure what it is. If you're not PvPing, the game is...

    Virtual Reality

    Crytek's big VR game: Crytek Announce Oculus Rift Exclusive: The Climb - VRFocus Not really sure what to think about it. It doesn't look like it simulates climbing in any real way, so it's really just a climbing mini-game wrapped by a beautiful engine. Maybe the full reveal will show why I'd...

    Reading: Discussions - Albion Online Forum It's just a question of Risk vs Reward balance. You need a tremendous amount of reward to offset the additional risk of PvP. After reading through that thread I don't have any trust that they will balance that RvR enough. I'm pretty burnt out on...

    Cad, what is the most principle principal in OOP? edit: let it be known I made my principle/principal joke before I saw Cad's post.

    It's pretty hard to beat matlab in terms of number of lines and ease of use when doing linear algebra, which makes up a great deal of the mathematics in robotics. But I think it's mostly widely used because academics like it. Personally I use C++ for nearly everything just because I want even...

    Bro I gave you out when I said you were right. Then you step up and pick a software engineering fight. Get back to work and finish your unit tests!

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    No, not really. I mean, iterating over your family members and getting their average is an algorithm, just a really simplistic one. The class still seems weird to me. C++ is a poor choice for introducing people to most algorithms because all the very important c/c++ details can trip them up...

    Congrats, a_skeleton_03! Did you actually learn any algorithms in that class? a_skeleton_03, if you ever wonder what obfuscation due to premature design assumptions is, it's designing your system to handle families on multiple planets. I actually thought about putting in a way to check...

    They will be, but who knows what availability there is. It might be one best buy, gamestop and frys in every big city or something http://www.roadtovr.com/oculus-plans...nsumer-launch/ I also wouldn't be surprised if they change their mind after finding out that n00bs using VR without...

    Arrow

    I agree. I think the Damien Dark confrontation has dragged on too long. It feels like in every episode they encounter eachother and try to kill each other but fail. The romance between Ollie and Felicity is pretty lackluster. I don't want Ollie to become mayor. I don't care about Diggle and his...

    I agree. I kept the cins in the class to make it more obvious to a_skeleton_03. There's a handful of bad practices in the code there that I kept in for that reason.

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    Even if they had only 8mil cash on hand back then (which is a number that can't be trusted), they've generated a lot sense Derek Smart was in the news. My previous (private) company disclosed their financials. My current company doesn't. I imagine in gaming companies it's more likely to be...

    Malcom is so weak. Especially given that he's supposed to be "the magician" and is fighting a magic user. I feel like the previous Ra's al Ghul would've done much better against Damien Dark. Also no way they kill Felicity. She and Ollie carry the show (not their relationship, just them as...

    The Flash

    I think Zoom telling Harry "Merry Christmas" set this episode up to be a non-serious and barely-canon episode. So is Wally West going to be a speed force user or what? Seems like he could just as easily go off into the sunset like black-flamebro.

    It's fine. It looks like code written by someone doing it for an array learning assignment.

    I believe specs are final. HTC Vive - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Oculus Rift - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Physically they are very similar. Their tracking system is different. The rift is targeting a seated VR experience. The Vive is targeting a room sized VR experience (but...

    Fallout 4

    Now that I read the last few weeks I think I agree with everyone. The way the story culminated seems forced and unnatural. I think it could have been a lot better with the following changes: 1. The railroad was a respectable attempt at creating a synth-friendly faction, but I thought it felt...

    Short answer: Don't worry about it, and just assume that in both c/c++ you need to put your functions above where they are needed. Long answer: in C89/C90 (ANSI C - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) the compiler just assumed that an unknown function you were referencing had a function...

    You guys showing off by providing full implementations (even pseudocode) of stuff a_skeleton_03 needs aren't helping him. At least let him struggle a bit to learn the concepts before telling him things like, "you need to put your functions above the main function, because the main function won't...
