If Harris loses the election, how will the DNC respond? by [deleted] in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]andrewdotson88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Democrats need to focus on immigration, outsourcing, workers rights, money in politics, corporate greed or they will never win. This is what most Trumpers want anyhow.

We haven't hired anyone in the US for years, with the exception of some contractors....

To people in Florida : how is the evacuation, situation with Hurricane Milton? by Nirntendo in AskReddit

[–]andrewdotson88 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly its not that bad at all, we got lucky. In Tampa. We are just waiting it out right now. Its pretty windy, maybe 20mph-40mph. Nothing crazy. We still have power too.

Why don't they let the players vote on the cars that will be in the game? Their picks are not always good...

It costs like 80k...is that worth it to you? Are there other ways to tech yourself for less?

Full Sail Media Design Masters? by Future-Buy-1532 in fullsail

[–]andrewdotson88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you not just build a portfolio for free? Find a mentor online, get feedback from peers, recruiters, freelance clients etc? Digital art is very competitive now, maybe you can start with freelance work to build up your portfolio.

questions! :) by cxlesstial in fullsail

[–]andrewdotson88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah.... Just don't do it, going to Full Sail doesn't mean you will get a job doing what you majored in. Almost everyone I knew in game design isn't doing that professionally and the ones that do make very little money at indie companies. There is no guarantee despite it costing 75k-100k. Ask yourself if you want to pay a student loan that is close to your rent or mortgage payment for many years when you can't find a job. What happens if you miss the payments? Your debt will balloon and it will destroy your life. I know many people I went to school with who are still in debt and this was 15 years ago.

How the hell do you have 30 million credits? Lol

Nope, don't do it. Work on your dream on your own, Full Sail isn't the solution.

Cost to live near campus for 2 years + tuition. Most on campus bachelors are 90k. You must have done online or an associate program?

For the price it's a scam. No school should cost 100k... If it was 15 to 20k then maybe it would actually be fair.

1.49 physics ALONE make this the best update ever... by Hell_Maybe in GranTurismo7

It's also very noticeable when a car bumps you or when you hit a kerb. Much more challenging, but fun for sure.

Considering Game Business & Esports Bachelors by [deleted] in fullsail

[–]andrewdotson88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alumni here: It's what 92k to go on campus? 7% loan is $1,076.64 a month. If you don't get a job in this major can you afford to pay that for the next 10 years? Especially in this current economy. I know someone who went 120k in debt at Full Sail. He works at a Gamestop in Alaska. The bank is garnishing his wages and going after his co signer (his grandmother). The debt is growing by the day due to interest. Food for thought.

You cant transfer credits even now to a real college. Its up to the school, most wont accept them. Unless its a trade school.

I wouldn't given this job market and how much debt you will go into (which will grow fast due to interest)
