Holy crap that's an ace looking mech.

I hope the hard-points suck, I don't want the Hero Mech I really want to be an expensive one.

It is not my computer and it is not the install.

I can run this game all maxed out at 1920X1080 and still get over 100fps.

Maybe it's just a ****** coding job.

So if its such a **** coding job, my computer must just be magical or what?

What the average working person makes?

Or what the average working person can live on with out government assistance?

In addition to the numerous costs I associated with running a business, just being an employee and where you are required to live to have that job... $15/hour may not be bad in the Midwest or the South,, but California, New York or in PGI's area of British Columbia, the cost of living is so high, $30k doesn't go far... like I said, thats $600/week before taxes, etc (Taxes are HIGH in Canada, California, New York)... so that's around $1800/month average after taxes.. apartment rates in Vancouver are around $1300/month so that leaves you $1500 for utilities, food, clothing, transportation...

Must be nice to still be in school where you can have these lofty ideals about the evils of Capitalism, but in the real world... good luck there Sparky

Must be nice to have mommy and daddy paying all the bills so you can come on the internet and make unsubstantiated claims.

See, I can make things up, too.


Actually, Roadbeer has it absolutely correct. I have lived in washington, where if you dont want to live around tweakers and other drug riddled neighborhoods, youre gonna need a damn sight more than 30k a year to live alone, let alone try and raise a family.
I do like how when you realize you are out of logical arguments you abandon any pretense and solely attack those who disagree with you.

I DO live in the US. I have MANY friends who make minimum wage. In San Francisco, minimum wage is 11.00 an hr. In Washington state its nearly 10. Here in Texas it is 8.50. also, 30k a year barely supports a single individual to any degree, and certainly not with any comforts such as health insurance or a home made in the last 20 years.


Minimum wage where I live is $7.25 an hour.

I apologise to the OP, however, it looks like we'll be shutting this one down as it has long since moved past its original intent into a Political/Financial/OMG slapfight.


Cheers.
