Buying Cobra
« on: October 09, 2007 »
Hey all,

I got £44.40 GBP in my pay account but

PayPal Balance                         Â£44.40 GBP
Credit Card : Visa/Delta/Electron £3.67   GBP

So that mean I cant pay it unless my pay pal account got £50.  :(

I just have to wait until when my Ebay of Command and conquer BOX 360 is finished and paid to me from someone else.

cheers

COBRA 2D               Â£35.95   (FAIR PRICE)
PROCESSING FEE     Â£  2.00   
VAT                      £  6.29    (PFFT BUT I suppose VAT is everywhere)

If you want to write games and support a really nice bloke then Cobra is not a bad buy.

However I have tried it out extensively and no matter what anyone says, it produces big exes and I mean really huge and also it is slow.

People will say that it is because Cobra requires different programming methods to Blitz etc.

I dunno what to say to you really... If you really like the language and have the money then go for it but don't expect the 2D module to be better than what's already out there.

To be honest with you, I want COBRA 3D but I had to buy COBRA 2D then Cobra 3D as I thought COBRA 3D was STAND ALONE Produce but I am wrong.

I have full backing for Graham K who done great job. For Exe that being bloat doesnt bother me.

I think Cobra is right language for me and it is time for me to stick to one that feel right.

Shocky,  when you coding first FREEBASIC ....you felt that FREEBASIC language was right for you and yes...it hit you in home run which why you love freebasic :updance:

cheers
