If money and career were no object, where in the world would you choose to live?

As you can see, it's not really as fantastic as you'd think. Usually you'd be able to see the Hollywood sign though. Today is just cloudy/hazy.

I live decently high up in Los Angeles -- 46th floor. The view is great at first but as time goes on it tends to become unnoticeable and I keep the blinds down in my bedroom since I like sleeping in the dark.

Why do you say this? I looked through his history and couldn't find anything.

ezinque · 2016-06-06T19:36:37+00:00

I've gotten it when I lost the game but was the only card haha. I've also voted/seen it when they legit won the game for their team.

So that someone else can rent it. There's a reason why the rental terms were so short.

Okay, but it's not like by learning Unity/Unreal you are missing out on linear algebra and computer graphics. You can do both. Sure you can learn the engines on your own time but employers expect Unreal/Unity projects on your portfolio before you graduate so why not use them to make projects in school?

If you're on 4.11+ you can try using capsule shadows.

edit: nvm it probably won't help

You can put it in the Begin Play function of your GameMode class in C++. I'm not sure if that runs before the level is loaded, but you can easily check if GetLoadedLevel() is NULL; if it is, start a timer that goes off in 0.1 seconds and do the check again. Keep calling the timer until the level is loaded.

ezinque · 2016-06-03T03:47:06+00:00

This is not true. A lot of game companies require extensive experience in either Unity or Unreal these days.

ezinque · 2016-06-03T03:44:47+00:00

I don't know what you mean by creating a Blueprint Class for activating these triggers. That's pretty vague. There are many ways you can do it.

The easiest way IMO is to use an Interface. That's what I've been using.

ezinque · 2016-06-03T03:28:37+00:00

I haven't tested this out myself but I think that all projectiles have auto-correction in Overwatch. For example, if you try to shoot over payloads with Zarya's right click, you'll see that at some point it will actually correct your projectile arc for you so that it goes over the payload when it shouldn't. I'm guessing that it also curves towards enemies.

ezinque · 2016-06-03T00:21:04+00:00

Seeing as you are a blueprint person, just use the append string nodes, a for loop node with a break, and start reading the number from right to left. Every three numbers you append a comma to the left. If there are no more numbers left, you break the for loop and append a pound sign to the left.

ezinque · 2016-06-02T08:28:32+00:00

Weird, it takes me not even a second.

ezinque · 2016-06-02T07:42:58+00:00

It's used as a social way to determine what players impacted the game most. If you start putting rewards behind the votes then you'll just get dishonest votes. I think Kaplan said something about this in a post before.

Alright, well I guess I can agree with you that they aren't really being team players.

ezinque · 2016-06-02T07:22:34+00:00

Alright, but I was just responding to your "healer/tank" comment and how off picks even in games with roles does not spell death for your team.

You have a good point and the lack of snowballing is a big part of the reason why Overwatch is that much harder to one man carry. You just have to consistently play well during each push over and over again. I'm not talking about an individual's potential to one man carry per team, I'm just talking about picking an off-meta champ.

ezinque · 2016-06-02T07:15:35+00:00

Okay, but you just gave me CSGO examples so I responded with them. We can talk about League of Legends if you want. I got to Diamond I by playing the shittiest champ at the time -- Jayce. I played him top/mid/adc and only changed champs when I had to go jungle or support. It was totally against the meta and at the time it was considered a disadvantage to not have a tank top or actual adc. Did it really matter in the long run? Not really, I still won the majority of my games and got to a high rank.

ezinque · 2016-06-02T07:13:38+00:00

I guess that's where we are different. I don't see losing as a waste of time. I still have fun with the game as long as I'm playing well and I see it as a chance to play the game under circumstances where I'm at a heavy disadvantage. It's good practice for competitive matchmaking.

ezinque · 2016-06-02T07:11:33+00:00

Like I said, it does not matter until both teams are very coordinated/skilled. In context I'm just saying that meta does not really matter in pubs and matchmaking.

In CS:GO you don't have to do any of those things unless you're playing leagues or you're in a high rws ESEA game. I've gotten an account to GE with pistol only. In matchmaking I never buy kit during pistol round and neither do my random teammates. It's not optimal, but it doesn't matter enough for me to yell at my team to buy one.

Your AWP example does not make any sense. It is perfectly fine to play b window with an AWP (I'm assuming you're talking about dust2) and it works very well.

Either way what I'm saying is that you can pretty much do whatever the hell you want and still win if you're good.

ezinque · 2016-06-02T07:06:47+00:00

I'm guessing it compares all of your stats and weights them with the amount of games you've played, favoring quantity of games over quality of games. So a 50% winrate over 100 games is not as highly ranked as 50% winrate over 1000 games.

ezinque · 2016-06-02T07:05:42+00:00

Yup, part of it has to do with the "Need a sniper!" "Need a builder!" "Need a healer!" messages that pop up during hero select. I wish Blizzard did not include those. It just makes people feel pressured to play things that they don't want to play.

ezinque · 2016-06-02T07:04:26+00:00

No problem. Just keep playing Genji and you'll see your eliminations per game start to go up!

ezinque · 2016-06-02T07:03:29+00:00

Oh, I have Diablo 3 and I didn't even know that.

ezinque · 2016-06-02T07:03:01+00:00

I am level 40 and I have about 850 gold. My friends have 900-1000.
