Interesting, do you read while you work? Also is game theory applicable to game dev, or is it for fun?

I did not expect players to have a race to round 999, and actually achieve it so soon.

I want to congratulate few people like IV and Dkal who spent over 100 hours on a single game to get there.

It's not my current goal, but what I did in the past was put it on github, then focus on doing one commit a day. Even if it is just 5 minutes of work, important to be consistent, and make all the boxes on the calender green

I started 5 months before Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, and was fortunate to be able to influence/code all the AI in some way. 3 of the which I was the primary programmer for: Orda, Disciple, Abomination

Hi all! I'm Andrew Hoyt, a Game AI Engineer. I'm coming up on my 5th year at Treyarch and have been leading development on Zombie AI for Call of Duty!

These days, I'm much more involved in end game content like bosses and high rounds. Also, a lot of my work involves stability and AI optimization
