Conquer 2.0 Server C++

Noo no this isnt a release! This is just a intermediate programmer who is new to this forum with a simple question. Why hasn't someone re built conquer online in c++? Doesn't it make sense to build it in the more common language. I dont really know what the whole history of conquer being in C#.

Again just a friendly question don't mean to offend C# fanboys :handsdown:

well i am not sure cause i have not used C++ But maybe it is either
- Harder - Or there is not much people here that are C++ interested in Conquer,

C# is common.

C++ or java i belive java is more stable but i guse anything can be more stable:D

There's not many people who can code a fully operating server in C++.
C++ is a difficult language.

C++ sucks, and there're many people who would agree with me.

The first ever source made for Conquer that was publicly released (UCCO) was in C#.
Nobodies had the intelligence to do anything but copy. (For the most part. I understand C# is a newer and more standardized language (thus bringing out more capabilities.. yada yada technical bullshit people rant on about), but a good portion of other private servers are done in C/C++. I have a feeling if we had started the same way we'd be in the same position)

/Agreed

As my personal message on MSN says:

C# makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot. C++ makes it
harder, but when you do, it blows away your whole leg.

Indeed.

C++ still sucks!
The syntax is so complicated for doing little tasks mixing parts of the C's syntax into it made it even worse.

That`s why it`s so widely used in the industry for sure.

C++ isn't a great language, I agree, but neither is it a bad one.
C# is advanced enough to make a private server and easy enough to learn it for un-paid, often not adults, programmers.

I'm trying to learn C++ since I need it for global hooks and the syntax just annoys me. Also the VC++ IDE really sucks compared to VC#.

Tw3ak has a C++ source, which well, rocks.
