Awesome.
I, for one, am looking forward to games that make plenty of use for async enumerables on observable events.

Well done, you're the first one to take note of that!

Any chance you can sort it out?
I "play" Fifa... it's the most painful game I have ever played. Most of which has came since they introduced Frostbite.
Why do I keep playing it? because EA hold a monopoly on football games.
Not to mention the micro-transactions... gambling for kids... what a company

it's a long shot.. but I'll do my best!
My first job, apparently, might be to help some sort tiny part of a game editor! That might help!

Well, morally right or wrong... it certainly sounds interesting.
I hope you will keep us updated with how you get on. It would be great to hear some stories about the inner workings of EA. Obviously nothing that would get you in trouble, but just things like how they separate features and workloads, etc. My assumption for a place like that is that it's very micro-managed - I could easily imaging 10 people all working on the same line of code!

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Congrats! Give us an update on how it's going... and don't forget the cheat codes!

Sure mate!
I dunno about the cheat codes though, haha!

I see what you did there! If I'm right, then I like that one - well done.

I'm getting better at them - been solving them for years but writing them is much harder.

It is, isn't it?
I had assumed it was just me, but ... nope, it's definitely harder to write a "good clue".
I'll try and post the solution in time today, unless someone else gets it first.

I just bought some 32GB thumb drives for A$4 each.
I remember when I bought my first thumb drive, just over 16 years ago. 256MB for A$60.
128x capacity, 1/15* the price... and pretty much the same size.
* More like 1/11, allowing for inflation
Cheers,

On my first computers HDD drive I ordered "extra 50 MB" of space for 100 €. It was in the lucky 90-ties of last century.
Press F1 for help or google it.

My first computer - an Amstrad 1640 - I upgraded from twin 360KB floppies to 1 32MB hard drive. Which cost £400 back then, around £1000 in modern money ... about the same as the rest of the computer!

£400 is what I paid to upgrade the 8KB of memory in my Commodore PET to a massive 16KB! What a powerful machine! A PET Users Group guy who worked for a local insurance company mentioned that their mainframe only had 8KB of memory at that time! I paid £1,200 to add a twin floppy external drive box to my PET a little later. 2x 1.02MB 5.25" floppies (at the same time!) Who who ever need more space than that? I had a box of 5 floppies (which cost quite a bit, I don't remember) and I still had 2 left, unused by the time I sold my precious PETs off to a local business I wrote some software for.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

My first experience with a HDD, I was working as an assembler programmer on an Apple II and the boss bought a 5MB drive. I don't know how much he paid for it but I don't imagine it was cheap. Thing sounded like a jet taking off when it started up.
