At Dan, and any other QA testers:
What part of MW/OB/FO3/FONV was the biggest pain to test?
Factions in FNV were pretty tough, as were holdout weapons. Any quest with multiple recursive paths got tricky too. There were a
loooooot of test cases, flowcharts and design documents for that stuff.
1:What does your work studio/office smell like?
2:Does anyone wear a tie to work?
3:Upon entering the studio/office what is the first thing you do?
4:How much Gatorade/Poweraid have you consumed over the last working year?
5:Who has the best/worst work computer? (Post specs plox)
On Wednesdays it smells like cookies. The rest of the time it just smells like cleaning spray.
A few of the more important folks do, sure.
Log in and check email etc, then get coffee while builds pull down to my kit(s).
None, actually.
Probably the artists. We have a couple beastly machines in QA, but mostly we run on more average/low specced machines.
@Dan Ross - Congrats on the promotion, when did it happen?
@all Devs - I'm Back. :wave:
If you worked on Fallout 3 and are working on Skyrim, are you doing the same or similar job or have you moved into a different department?
I got bumped while I was on FNV. And yeah, I'm more or less doing the same job, but now I also help direct the overall testing effort.
Yes! Every year at the Maryland Renaissance festival. This past year, I attempted to brew my own... It was... somewhat drinkable, but convinced me I'm better off buying the professionally fermented stuff until I can get the proper set up.
I found one... now to convince my wife that spending $100 to have buckets of fermenting liquids in the living room for weeks on end is a
good idea...
What did you think of The Infernal City?
Chevrolet or Ford?
I liked it.
I have a Ranger, but I think Mazda makes those now? :shrug:
Were you all born in maryland?
I'm from California actually. I moved out here to try to get this job.
What were your favorite subjects in HS/college?
I actually really took a liking to ancient history in college. Not enough to change my major at the time, but if I could have a do-over I probably would.
2) What is your favorite beer? Mine is Guinness.
3) Have any of you ever brewed your own beer and if so, what type? I've done a hefeweizen and a pale ale myself.
4) Does anyone like Scotch? I love Scotch (with a piece of dark chocolate). :liplick:
P.S.: I am extremely grateful for all the replies you've made to us forum-goers so far and for any you continue to make. Every small gesture to the community makes me smile!
Too many to count really. I tend to prefer the pilsners and lagers, but I'll take a Guinness from the tap any day. I had a really good beer at Gordon Biersch awhile back... "Blonde Bock" I think? Went great with the garlic fries anyway.
Not yet...
I do, and you're right; it goes great with dark chocolate.
