Is there any degree course out there teaches u to design multiplayer maps? One where no computer knowledge is needed (I hate the fu**ing things), just u and a pencil.
Um, no.
Well, maybe an architecture course could do something, but they're getting more and more computer reliant these days too.
I never knew what course I wanted to do in college, so I ended up hating the course I did do. Any way now I'm qualified to do something I hate.
That sounds rather familiar, acutally. Oh well... just gotta roll with the punches and stand back up afterwards.
I can't help wondering that things could have been so much better especially with the way the games industry has taken off, bet I'd have no trouble finding work as a map designer(if such a job existed).
Oh, that job exists... look here for a couple of articles Bungie put out about it and other related jobs. Here is especially pertinent.
However, they all emphasise the use of these consarned electric abacus thingies.
Anyway bungie please create this degree course and forward me the requirements to get in.
Um, no. Bungie doesn't create degree courses. Not that they can't teach our Moms a thing or two.
-- Steve encourages you to look at local colleges and see if there's something there that'll relate... design courses are very common, and it's not that big a step from designing a shopping mall to designing a Forerunner temple. In fact, aren't they rather similar?
Edited to add that second link.
