    StarCraft 2

    Also if these 3 missions are a taste of the SP design for LotV I'm really excited for it. All three missions revolved around you being cut off in some fashion from unlimited resources and the Brutal difficulty was actually quite hard. I had to restart the first mission at least half a dozen...

    StarCraft 2

    LotV MP should be more engaging and entertaining than HotS. Even in it's broken state it is more purely fun than HotS. But I'm also a 1v1 player and find team mates a detriment to my enjoyment of games so it isn't shocking I prefer RTS over MOBA.

    Why do you care so much? God just mentioning a female on the internet brings out the strangest behavior in people. Are you really that hard up to see a girl? I can point you to plenty of websites that feature them.

    I'm thinking of buying a ~500gb SSD. My computer takes an absolute eternity to boot up on its 1TB HDD. How much of a to-do is it to move my windows installation and a few games over to the SSD?

    Groovy did it but honestly I don't see the big deal with auto properties. I just declare all my private fields in the class then have Intellij auto-generate all my getters and setters. With a modern IDE I don't really see the big fuss. If you really want the ease of dot notation such as...

    Heroes of the Storm

    But a Q or W built Valla can do something without someone peeling for her. That is the main issue with auto attack Valla is she gets engaged upon and she's basically fucked.

    Heroes of the Storm

    Johanna can die quite easily to a coordinated focused attack. She has a middle-of-the-pack health pool and most of her sustain comes from people chipping at her so she can use her 20% heal and D a few times in a battle. But with that team until she got 16 and took Imposing they could easily...

    Which is why many of these "implement this" questions are not 100% about your actual end-product algorithm. Many of them are to see if you're comfortable clarifying requirements, asking questions and not just coding away without a complete picture of where you'll end. So if someone says...

    Coding for 8th Graders

    I started programming in 10th grade using VB. I like the language as a teaching tool. It gives you the GUI and onAction stuff really easily so the programming is a bit more tangible so its like "Oh I click this button and it makes this text appear." It doesn't force the student to learn about...

    Heroes of the Storm

    I don't really put Zeratul into the same category of melee assassin as like Butcher, Thrall, Kerrigan. He operates and plays a completely different way. He shouldn't be eating the same AOEs or getting in each other's way like if you paired together a Butcher with a Thrall.

    I like Naz on Cursed now that his spider build is the most popular. Those fuckers last forever and can push someone off the tribute almost indefinitely. I also don't mind him first pick because Naz doesn't really have counter play now that he isn't just a RS bot. The biggest issue he has in...

    Heroes of the Storm

    The biggest issue is the on-demand Unstoppable from Johanna so if she engages into the ETC he is mostly worthless since he won't be able to Q or W or R her. But if he gets the engage into her then that is a different story since she can't D while stunned. But the left team has a Lili which...

    I generally explicitly use "this" even when optional. I don't prefix any of my variables. I also don't like to prefix interfaces with "I" I prefer to postfix them with "able." Since interfaces generally imply actions an implementing class can perform. So I'd have a "Rollable" interface and...

    Using a modern GNU you aren't required but some open source does in fact specify you have to open source your software if using it. We had to write our own Z39.50 communication library because for the longest time (maybe still?) Yaz4J required you to open source your software if using it.
