Yeah AutoCAD is pie.  I just got back from Houston learning ProE.  It's not bad either...just A LOT different.  It's much better for 3D applications, though.



You would get destroyed.



I'm sure it isn't THAT bad...I guess I just don't feel like putting forth the effort to get good at another video game.  I hate hate hate playing a video game that a majority of people are better than me at and that would probably be the case if I just picked up COD and started playing it.



I'm getting my MSME (Master of Science of Engineering) from Georgia Tech right now to compliment my BSME I got here in Arkansas.  The two schools are like night and day...there is a reason why they say that you don't "graduate" from Georgia Tech, you "survive" it.

And I might be the same way in regards to Halo...I guess I have a small spark of motivation from seeing Aussie Matt and some of the others on here have some success.


Hahaha. So many people tell me I'm going to kill myself if I go to GTech.
Anyhow, if you don't want to pick up a game that everyone is so good at off the start.

Starcraft 2 ftw.

Me, Drew, Brise, and Jetty plays. :D

Haha no nothing happened...I've just been busy with life. How have you been?

Mongoose race. Right now.

I'll see if there is a spare Xbox 360 and Halo 3 disk hiding in one of the offices here at work.

Ya i hear ya

Any idea when you moving to DTown yet? Im ready to throw down and not remember 1/2 of it :rofl:


We are aiming for early September. Her lease ends in August and both of us are itching to get out of this state so we shouldn't be around much longer after that.

You should give it a try though, CoD is WAY easier to get good at than Halo, in a sense.
Especially if you stick to one gametype and have people that are good at that one gametype.
That's how I learned how to play CoD.
I started CoD like 2-3 months before mw2 came out and pretty much only played SnD on CoD4
We taught Nick how to play CoD and he was doing good shortly after he started playing it


Why would I want to play a game that is EASIER to get good at than Halo? Halo 2 and 3 were ridiculously easy to get good at, and if COD is even "worse" than that in regards to difficulty then there is no way I'd play it.

Yeah you probably will kill yourself, or at least want to. The dropout rate here is insane.

Ew @ Starcraft...only RTS I play is C&C :)

LoL. A lot of people actually believed Starcraft was lame, but when they "try" to learn how to play it got very addicting. I promise you it's about a thousand times harder than trying to get "top 32" MLG Halo 3. Jetty would definitely vouch me. Plus, it's not just the competitiveness, a lot of customs games that people make is pretty fun as well. I guess the only reason why people wouldn't like Starcraft 2 is because it's just a computer-type game, so I was told.

I've been doing awesome. So many things are going my way this summer :D.

Ya i realize that now, but i just wasnt into it back then



Well me and my team run SND games pretty much every day from like 4-8 central time, i rarely see you on when we are looking for players to fill our party but ill invite if when i do

I have a 108 win streak :O

2.5 or something like that win ratio (would be much higher if i didnt play by myself for many months before starting to play with the group i normally play with now)


damn i haven't played in like a week, but every time i was on you're never on to run some search with!
lol if i joined that group of players you know the win streak would just skyrocket! haha jk :P

Ya i hear ya, i hated cod games up until this one

I think you would like search and destroy tho, its the only thing i play now, its badass

I dont really play the other pub games anymore


SnD is the only playlist I had fun in. Everything else I'd get bored of sitting around and just charge in if I was alone, and if I was playing with some friends we had our side of the map locked down and there really wasn't much action. I'd play snd with you again if it weren't so laggy, not sure why I can play with my friends in Houston but can't play with you.

Texas A&M University. Good in all the major engineering disciplines (ranked top 10 best overall undergraduate engineering schools, #5 or 6 best overall graduate engineering schools), cheap, and they give a fuck-ton of money in scholarships.

Downside is it's expensive if you're from out-of-state, but you get in-state tuition if you get any scholarships so it's not that big of a deal.
