Building BIG games (and mmos) w/ unity

@18:54
When i was like 11 years old, microsoft Ants… i kinda knew a bit of c++ and then found a free memory editor. Found out i could easily just change my score, then everyone in the game would see me as the winner….
Same thing foe the maps. I was able to break about the map files, grid based with lots of extra stuff, maybe layers? but i found out dozens of the tile pallet hex codes, and learned of the build in CRC, so -1 here meant -1 some place else. Well my map could be totally different than other players. So i could just make a flatmap, tons of high point food. While everyone else had the hard map to play on. They just saw my ants walking on water, through grass, picking up items that aren't there.
No i never cheated, did lots of testing and learning on the stuff in private games with my sister.

I understand the job security angle. I had the same thought as an early freelancer.
I even made spaghetti on purpose until I decided it was best to work for reputable people and follow best practices.

truthfully the more simple your coding the better for me personally, i think the build of the setting of the game should be far more complex than that of codes in UNITY, anyone can download decent codes for free and just alter them! im working on ps5 games now, and cannot wait to sell them in my near future on ps5 exclusive thanks for the video brother God bless

What's the name of the company that makes those spinning globes?

7:00 I use if method always but I don't work with team most of the time i use public var wean first make the in the order to make test esyer and after that I will change meny off lines to provide

37:00 basically you are talking about Bethesda games like TES and Fallout

Great stuff! Definitely would love to hear about pretty much anything related to MMOs or even just developing simpler networked games. Some topics I might wonder about are: 1) different genres and their derived requirements for possible implementation architectures, 2) taking one MMO and just going over how it's generally structured or maybe going over one specific area in more detail, 3) could there be recommended road map to networked game development (technical aspects as well as team specs) as going from a "normal" game to an MMO is quite a leap, 4) MMO history and general problems and solutions developers have come up with 5) MMO future and possible advancements and tools that might help 6) recommended reading, books, resources…..I could go on and on I guess, sorry 🙂

when it comes to long variable names, I find it pretty hard to read code when there's a bunch of long ass variable names being put into a bunch of math functions or something, it just looks like a mess.
So readability is usually the reason that I do abbreviate things, at least for local variables. I can understand not wanting to give instance variables unreadable names, but IMO, really long names make it easier to understand the variable itself while making it harder to read the functions they are in. I die a little inside when I can't think of a name for an instance variable that simultaneously describes it well and is less than a couple words

Coding style and organization policies.
Good habits.
Excellent video.

I am coming from a different part of the development industry, why does it sound like no one in the game dev ever do things like production builds?
