Silicon Knights coming to my class




Posted by Red

tomorrow, a programmer from [url=http://www.siliconknights.com/main.html]silicon knights[/url] is coming to my computer sciences class to talk to us about programming and we're supposed to ask questions.

what should I ask him?




Posted by WillisGreeny

Ask him, out of all the members of Silicon Knights, why he has to be the loser to talk to a bunch of kids learning the basics of Java and C (or w/e lang they teach these days)?

I didn't ask him any questions, but he did mention that Dennis Dyack was actually a really nice person. he said he'd buy the whole company tickets to see a moive together and crap like that.

So you make a thread asking what kind of questions to ask the guy, and then you pussy out and don't ask?

Yeah, he's supposed to be an awesome guy in real life, but he's a total dick to people online. Gets too uppity about his own games.

the questions were suposed to be more "general", and I didn't really think to ask them.

Whatever to happened to just raising your hand and asking whatever came to mind?

[COLOR="Yellow"]He was shy maybe. Had it been me in there, i think it's obvious which question the fans want asked:

"Eternal Darkness 2, where it's at?"[/COLOR]

should have asked him if he's ever had to program grenade throws for AI

apparently it's one of the most complex calculations in all of games programming except maybe some other stuff i have never read about like physics and s[COLOR=Silver]hit[/COLOR]

Just ask him a question about programming you assholes, he probably didn't even want to make Too Human, he probably wanted to make some kind of civil war strategy game with dragons.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

good ten years too late for that




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

ten years ago he'd have wanted to make a skateboarding 3D platformer




Posted by WillisGreeny

They'd need to make the dragons have gunz, then it'd sell well.




Posted by Speedfreak

And it would simulate something entirely pointless. But he'd think it was awesome because it's an extra thing being simulated and programmers are amazed by crap like that.

speedfreak: hating on the games themselves aint enough for him no more




Posted by WillisGreeny

LOOK HOW SHIMMERY THE WATER IS!!! That took a year of development, but I'm glad we did that instead of coming up with some kind of original game play.

I also hate your face.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

we should ask the guy if being a jaded faggot is a prerequisite for all game developers




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Yeah, I'm sure Dennis Dyack wants someone like that working for him when he's getting it nonstop on the internet.

speedfreak would be like, dyack's ultimate PR guy

ITS INNOVATIVE, MORON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Everything positive he says about the game would be dripping with sarcasm.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

he'd make like this huge press statement with a ton of quotes and **** in it and everyone would just scroooooll on byyyyy

Okay I want this job now.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

I'd hire him. You know how much press I'd get with a PR guy like Speedfreak? People would be like "man, he makes it sound SO bad it HAS TO BE GOOD" suddenly, 10 million copies sold.
