Seeing as how most of us here are in high school or so, the future is coming up pretty fast. I was just wondering what kind of careers or colleges everyone is interested in. Personally I have no clue, so in a few years it's off to Alaska for me.

if I had to decide right now, I would say go to Winona State University, major in computer science, minor in mathematics and physics. I would like to continue work with Negative Zero

My future, when I turn 18 I get shot or something of that matter, my dream job would be to become a fighter/helecopter pilot but im most likely heading down the science rute, so far im gonna try to go for robotics, programming or genetics. (nano technology is the future)

Oh, hm. Well, I havn't really decided what I like yet, so -like the creator of this thread- I have no idea what I want to do. Chances are, I'll go into something like medicine. I have interests in computer gaming (every little nerd's dream), yet I know that my programming skills are a little less than sub-par. Like almost everyone else here (it seems) I'll probably try to major in some form of science path, physics has always r0x0rd my s0x, so... who knows, maybe I'll become some form of physicist, though I would bet against that, since math seems to elude me. So... when it all comes down to it, I'll probably become some form of doctor: be it of the eye or nose or general variety. I've always had a dream to have the "Dr." title in my name, so that's what I'm going for.

You can be a doctor of almost anything you know. It doesn't have to be doctor of medicine.

Okay. Why do people ask this all the time at this age but so far...I am not sure what college I would like to go to. really, it depends. I want to go to a college in Londan but not at the expense that I live something well rather someone behind that I really care for and think I could last with. But, I would like to become a Home Accountant for companys or weather small or big. But college majors would have to be Language wise Japanese and Latin if possible. Otherwise a Major in Science and Mathmatics. Minor in English and History. I am not going to take four years in high school or classes I dont have to for no reason! ^_^

No way you were way good at programming, without you I wouldnt have any understanding of blitz (and programming is just one of those things where you have to practice) I highley suggest you try blitz out as it is waaaay easier than python for setting up graphics (blitz is actualy made for it) and once you get a basic understanding of it theres so much you can do... (at least try it, look at our tutorials/example in the blitz boards )

see, depending on how uber NZ gets, we could continue doing that through college/whatever. I mean, we have good coders, good graphix ppl, good music people (lookin at u, kiddofreak). I really think this could go somewhere

Ok, alot of you may make fun of me for this, but I actually want to make video games. Weather if its at Square Enix or if we can do something with Negative Zero. I think it'd be way cool if Negative Zero could pull of something like Game Freak or Squaresoft.
As for collage, I forget, but DecapitatedKow knows one as he wants to do the same thing I believe. So I'll have to E-Mail him about that sometime.

Somehow I have a feeling that NZ is going to come out with a game thats somewhat cool, then we will all get sued by some huge video game company... oh well

HA! Negative Zero has no future whatsoever. I can almost guarantee it.
So Vash I recommend that you try to get a job with one of those other big companies.

HA! Negative Zero has no future whatsoever. I can almost guarantee it. Well no big future, NZ is an Idie game company (independant) the most we can hope for is some small online thing or just selling our games/models/music/source code to other indie companies and making about 100 bucks a month. But hey the only way you will be able to make games for something like square enix is if you have alot of experience so you almost have to be in indie game companies And for those of you who doupt our game creation ability, here is a simple movement demo I made today (there were storms and I was bored) note that character 1 moves with the keys, the other follows the mouse. I am hoping to turn this into a small retro final fantasy style demo, and if thats succesful we can turn it into a game. Note that you dont need blitz to try it. www.freewebs.com/azan00/Movement.zip(Note you need to copy and paste the link into your browser for it to download)

we could make 100 dollars a month just from the website, NZ can really go somewhere, I know it. also, as for college, I want to attend winona state university, it's only like $10,000 a year, and then they offer free laptops and the entire campus is a huge wifi hotspot. it sounds really good, and the've apparently got one of the better computer science programs in the state.
