Many having tell me to make my MMORPG in java leads me to agree, But I'm not sure truly is it not yet easier, but yet the outcome of programming an MMORPG in java will make it fail or succeed more then one in C+=

I've learned a lot of variables in javascript, and I don't think that java would be too bad either.

My true question is, is those who use these languages, which seems to give better outcome, and which seems to be more in ease.

C++ is generally agreed upon as being harder than Java. If you want to make an mmorpg, then you need to pick what type. If you want a stand alone game, then you probably want to use C++. If you want a web-based game (like RuneScape) then make a Java applet. Either way, it's easier to make a game in Java, especially with the huge standard library and available documentation and great support for things like sockets.

If you're thinking to build mobile phones games..java is No.1 biggrin.gif
if not...i guess C++ is better.. but depends on the type of application, so for some applications dealing with C++ will be much harder than with Java.

At my school, they teach us Java first, then C++. And it makes sense...I've yet to find a significant project that was much easier to do in C++ than in Java. C++ has its perks in that it often produces faster programs and can be more powerful, but Java has the advantage of a huge standard library which helps immensely in your coding. Often you'll find that what you want to do has already been done for you, so you can concentrate on other aspects of your code. It's also easier to make your program web-accessible with applets in Java.

C++ increases speed, while Java gives you more productivity. But c++ is more complex, then to create a Web application, for example, it is recommended that you use Java.

Hi, i dont know why are you chosing between this two object oriented languages.
In my opinion a game should be done in C or C++, i would not have in mind java because it is some slow for 3D graphics and it is executed on a jvirtual machines, so the server will be slow and will need a faster machine than a server done in C/C++.
My other point is that C or C++ can be compiled in Linux, Mac or Windows if you are planning to use OpenGL Apii. This way your client will have compatibility in all these famous platforms.
Also if you are making the server in C with Unix sockets, it will also be compatible with all the massive operating systems.
Well, to finish my recomendation is that you do the game in C++ language as it is not very complicated. If you know how to program you will find it very easy but some tedious to write the graphics engine.
I expect you got millions for the project and share it with us tongue.gif .

Good luck, Seba.

For me it really depends on you. Java and C++ as its own pros and cons, it really depends on you which language you would prefer. provided that you are willing to sacrifice based on the language you choose. for example if your going to develop the game using java, you will have to sacrifice its speed and hardware requirements. In the other hand if your going to develop it in C++ then be prepared to do complex programming. The choice really would be yours to make.

C++ run faster than Java. But Java can run on lots of operation system without changing any source codes.
