    Liquors & Cocktails

    I went with the poor man in college approach of buying shit-tier whiskeys and eventually when I could afford something that didn't taste like sewage from an oak barrel it tasted like angel jizz

    So I think I'm starting to "get" using widow mines. I needed to get rid of my old Terran idea of "I'm going bio why make shit from the fact?" since mines don't benefit from either factory or ebay upgrades. So they are equally effective regardless of your upgrade path. In TvP you are pretty...

    Difficult programming question

    I don't think many people would argue with you but just saying "game developer" is pretty broad. I believe most large companies specialize their people now. So you basically do the same thing every day but for different titles. Unless you're in indie the days of being the ui developer, the...

    Difficult programming question

    Yeah indie favors gameplay and design more than AAA which favors graphics and effects. I wonder what % of "game programmers" work for large studios and how many work for indie studios. I'd imagine the large studios represent a large majority. From what I understand being a game developer at a...

    Liquors & Cocktails

    Want to throw in my favorite bourbon. Four Roses Single Barrel. 100 proof so a bit more burney than most bourbons but it tastes so good and is so smooth. Love it. At about $30-$40 a 750mL it can't be beat, imo.

    Difficult programming question

    I'll admit my knowledge is fairly dated. What is the language most studios use these days? Literally two months ago I found out Minecraft was written in Java. Blew my mind.

    Difficult programming question

    For game development your only real option is to learn C++. Most games are produced using C++ and more recently iPhone development uses Objective-C.

    Software Engineering or Computer Science?

    While I agree with pretty much everyone that what you learn in college won't matter in your day-to-day being a developer, or should I say a good one, requires a certain amount of intelligence. I always saw the high level Calc and Physics classes as a way to filter people out who can simply...

    StarCraft 2

    I haven't seen anything recently saying they were going to pull the carrier. The main issue with the carrier vs marines is a) interceptors don't heal when returned and b) marine dps is high enough to just kill all the interceptors. I don't understand everyone's obsession with making the...

    StarCraft 2

    That comment seems odd to me. Carriers are the most viable right now than they've ever been. They're still worthless TvP if the Terran goes Bio but they still counter TvP mech quite nicely and skytoss is extraordinarily viable PvZ. BC still fills the role it filled in BW. I'd argue you see...

    StarCraft 2

    Alright I've had a bit more time to play with HotS and get some strategies and builds down. This will all be from a Terran pov. TvT right now is a mess. Reapers are making it impossible to do anything really. It is either open reapers or blindly counter reapers. So far the only real...

    Software Engineering or Computer Science?

    The first filter to get a job in development is the HR filter. If you don't have a degree and it says you need one they'll trash your resume. I'm not saying it's right I'm just saying how it works.

    "Good" games, that you hate.

    SoM is action based. Not really turn based. It also depends on where you draw the line on turn based. Is Chrono Trigger turn based? Because many FF games use a similar concept. But yeah Pokemon combat is pretty boring since the initiative roll only determines who goes first then they just...

    Big Bang Theory

    The odd part about this show is rarely people this nerdy are actually smart. Everyone I've met with this level of obsession with comic culture and lack of social sense all are college dropouts.

    StarCraft 2

    HotS, at least in the current state, is way more fun to watch and play than WoL. Right now the optimal ZvT composition seems to be Roach/Hydra/Viper then into Ultra/Hydra/Ling. The Terran side hasn't changed too much but the emergency boost on the dropship makes drops way more interesting and...

    StarCraft 2

    It didn't really do too much. Infestors still counter every unit in the game but now they're just a bit easier to kill when they walk in to fungal. The largest issue, imo, remains the queen range buff.

    Then you better edit the OP since it lists Req and Tyen's actual business. People could try wrecking their personal lives for feeling accosted on the internet.

    Kids? or No kids?

    This makes absolutely no sense. If you're going to justify having a kid because you're "doing good for society" why not do good for society by your own actions? Why not adopt a kid (there are tons out there) instead of creating one yourself if your main desire is to make a better tomorrow...

    StarCraft 2

    I think they quickly learned from the tepid response the community was giving to HOTS that they had to do something drastic. I played HOTS before the patch and it simply felt like the exact same game. Perhaps because I was playing on the Terran side where literally the only change was widow...

    StarCraft 2

    They threw a bunch of shit against the wall lately without any real balancing beforehand. If anyone saw the change log and thought they'd get a completely balanced game they're fooling themselves. I will say, however, HOTS is way more fun to play at the moment than WoL. I just wish I had some...

    Thats because Zerg is fucking retarded still. I would almost guarantee Polt has put in 3x more hours into SC2 than SortOf and he still has to rely on SortOf completely fucking up and forgetting he has a main base to win. Getting old seeing a new random EU/NA Zerg getting far into the...
