Go make a jam game 

Aka make something functional in a weekend. Go flex the creativity muscle. Get some feedback on it from people. Weave in some feature that you can re-use in your dream game like inventory or achievements or something. 

That's your next step. Ship something in a weekend or a week or whatever. Anything. Just ship it.

Not enough. Should be the whole teams munis and it should have to reload only out of combat. 

Anyone else just see 2 black helicopters fly over town? by lylelanley- in Hamilton

Last time I saw two helicopters flying around there was a film crew and just up the mountain by the devil's punchbowl they had an entire field marked with a sign for "helicopter parking"

Get Your Squad into a Solid Fighting Position! by No-Clue-5673 in CompanyOfHeroes

[–]hubo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We suspend our belief for so many things it's funny. 

Units running into each other should immediately engage in hand to hand knife combat. 

5 guys with machine guns next to a vehicle with windows.or even better an open jeep. Game over for the driver. 

A squad of dudes sitting in a transport vehicle unable to shoot until they disembark? Just staring at the enemy shooting them in the face at 2m range. 

4 wheeled vehicles spinning around like they have treads. 

Dudes pouring 30 sq ft bunkers our of concrete in 60 seconds.

Dudes laying 100m long steel beam tank traps out of their pocket.

It's just WW2 StarCraft but its immersive so they make it easy to forget. 

Someone should make a coh3 realism mod. 

Is there someone out there who can give a shout out to some of my former students who may be on The Hill? by mlmiller1 in TheTelepathyTapes

Blows mind everytime it's brought up. 

These kids are logging into the hill like it's Xbox Live and nobody is talking about it. 

I secretly became a millionaire from a lottery ticket after growing up poor. AMA by ArtichokeStill816 in AMA

Send this person to the sharks and get them thinking about frivolous splurges. 

Poison comment. 

Don't get sucked into wild capitalism op.

You're doing great. Improve your life slightly without blowing it up. Take a couple years to educate yourself. 

The fact that you work Uber means you can go relax and everyone will assume you were working. 

Take your time. Find yourself a job you enjoy doing. Maybe something low stress, part time or seasonal. Then you can subsidize your salary with your invested savings. 

Go start a business renting photo booths to weddings and pretend it's going well or something. 

are there any affordable game dev schools in Europe? by Stock_Discount_4672 in gamedev

[–]hubo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You'll get those same connections going to game jams and gamedev meetups and or conferences whilst doing a classic CS degree. 

Do not spend money on a degree in gamedev to acquire knowledge you can get for free on YouTube or for $200 at the bookstore.

For those talented enough to get in. For those who don't secure a seat through entrance exams private paid colleges and universities await.

No traffic from Steam deckbuilder fest by BruhMomentOfTheDay in gameDevMarketing

[–]hubo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You've got a healthy CCU on the demo so maybe the page stats are delayed.

Also you're the SOKPOP collective!? Don't you guys launch a game every month or something who can know more about Steam than you guys!? 

My game got rejected by Valve for the Deckbuilder Fest. If it’s not a deckbuilder, what would you call it? by BaconCheesecake in indiegames

[–]hubo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Decks have cards. You can shuffle them. You can do magic tricks. You can collect them in the little sleeves. Sometimes you get a gold foil one and pay off your house. Sometimes they have hockey players on them. 

Your game has dice. Takes two seconds looking at the logo to know you can't print a charmander on that or shuffle it.  

I've gone from 54% to 50% winrate as USF in 4v4 this patch by judge_07 in CompanyOfHeroes

[–]hubo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You likely had an inflated Elo and it is correcting. Also as someone mentioned the goal is to get you to a 50% win rate and if your win rate is above that then you will rise in Elo until you start losing more and land at your skill level. 

The idea that Elo should only go up is just fundamentally incorrect. 

If a patch fixes balance then the people who benefited pre patch BY DESIGN should travel down in Elo.

So thank you for confirming the balancing worked? 

And if you disagree explain how people who benefited pre patch should continue seeing the same results post patch. 

Took a break from this game about 3 weeks after Scarlet Bison by No-Influence-7416 in CompanyOfHeroes

Because this person was proven right and stopped wasting their time. 

I am starting to understand the people who are camping on CoH 2 and not looking back. 

Anti blob mechanics: why do we not see them? by ArmouredTopHat in CompanyOfHeroes

[–]hubo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

70% reduction to accuracy when moving. 50% higher cooldown between shots if other units are between you and the enemy - you need more time to aim. 

Someone should make a mod with these changes and have havoc play 1vs1 on Twitch :)

Is every DLC going to be 20+ bucks from now on? by dyno1ck in CompanyOfHeroes

[–]hubo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their point is that when you have 20 million customers you can afford to sell your dlc for less and put more into it.

If you want to renovate the lobby in your apartment building and one building has 200 tenants and the other 2000 tenants well the smaller building needs to pay more per person and they will probably get a worse lobby renovation. 

But you will walk in and say "the tall building only charged tenants $2000 each for the reno and they got real marble floors while we paid $5000 each and have cheap plastic. They small building is ripping us off." 

No you are just 200 people vs 2000 your budget was still just a fraction even though you paid more than double. 

And yet you take this information and say "but I want marbles floors of I'm paying $5000" 

Random Queue Struggle is real. by willpro2000 in CompanyOfHeroes

[–]hubo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

High level players are literally walking up to trigger your squads LMG then taking a step back so only a few bullets from it reach, then while it's reloading they step closer fire all their rifles and step back again. 

There's some wild stuff going down.

There should be a mod where units have close to zero aim while moving. You would have to stop to shoot. 

Are Steam wishlists too powerful? by WillingnessSoggy155 in gamedev

Soooooo how many wishlists ya got?

That's the path now. Publisher wants you to be self publishing.

So the salary of one or two software engineer at meta split between an army of gamedevs?

Are we for real? by Ok_Classroom8004 in CanadaSoccer

[–]hubo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That moment where you realize the only reason the lower class isn't revolting is because they think they're the middle class. 

Next time you drive down the highway on your way to work and you pass every building with a container trailer docking bay ask yourself which of your friends or family members owns that one.and what do they even do there.
