Subject: RE: Will we still get e-mail
from the gameprogrammer mailing list ?
im
not bothered, just trying to understand why people are on this list because i
have been subscribed for a couple weeks and all it has gotten is a couple
trivial questions and that is it -- very dead list with not much
happening.
unsubscribing would only do a dis-service to newbies who i can help
immensely.
and
what is your AI point about? Network games are so hot and are getting
more gameplay than single-player games. but to discuss enemy AI,
neuro-net type technologies are not practical for video games because of
delays. Yes, having the computer learn from its opponent does make for
excellent video games. And Yes, AI is a great and big field -- do you
really think a beginning game developer is going to ask questions about AI
other than enemies waling around walls?
m.
Matt,
Is
that why the military spends many millions of dollars a year on AI
research? Or maybe a few folks on the other developer lists I am on
might have a view that doing simple game programming is somewhat easier than
doing complex game programming, but that even simple game programming is
harder than a lot of other programming. The idea of this list is that
it is more tolerant of beginners than the other game developer lists.
If you are beyond the beginning game programmer level, and can't be bothered
by questions from beginners, then I hope you succeed in getting
unsubscribed.
