Exam Obectives - Unity Certified Expert GamePlay Programmer

Hi was reviewing your Exam Objectives for Unity Certified Expert GamePlay Programmer

The answer given for the first question is incorrect, it should be D not C.

If you can have up to 128 UFO's in the scene you would not place them in the editor, you would spawn them.

 

I believe the way the question is worded is to identify what should be returned back to the pool so that it can be reused later. They do not specify that the UFO's will need to respawn but it is implied that bullets and explosions will.

 

If the game was an endless side scroller, the UFO's would need to be spawned. If the level was fixed with a specific number of UFO always starting in the same place, I guess C might be correct. There doesn't seem to be enough information provided to determine the best correct answer.

I still think "D" is a better answer.

 

I think in the same way and therefore option D was chosen. It seems to be the most suitable according to the approach which is being described. Unless we have more options. Meanwhile the "correct" C got me confused so far. Yet it's not a big deal at all, guys, since the Exam is still in Beta. It's just a matter of time to get the exam program polished. At least i hold my breath. Apparently we only have to keep calm and carry on the preparation)

 

Hey guys how can I access the exam objectives? I've signed up on the site but no email has come with the pdf.

 

Back when they first announced this, the link to register and get the PDF was a Unity one not Pearson-Vue (Assuming that's where you signed up)

Try http://response.unity3d.com/certifi...5468.969135360.1516601123-93341633.1510407357

 

I've filled out the above form and haven't received the objectives yet... Has anyone had any luck with this?

 

I contacted Unity3d support and they sent me the PDF

 

Same question here. I chose D too

 

Also the last question about analytics is unclear.
For me nothing more is needed to determine the top 5, because:
levelStarted - levelCompleted = levelFailed
Maybe the levelStarted event is called only once for each player but it is not specified in the question. On the other hand the levelTime from the A answer could give more informations about difficulty even if levels are time limited.

 

Hey guys, did anyone take the exam yet? I would like to know more questions to have a more robust idea of the exam.

 

Any idea when the Module 4-5 (Performance / Services) will be available?

 

Hello, some input on the Coursera Courses :

I audited the 5 courses, and there is no way that is enough information to even begin the Expert certification. Was this a marketing mistake? These courses are so basic they fit the profile for the standard Pro Certification not the Expert Certification.

I have been programming in Unity C# for over 5 years and this course doesn't come close to what you need to be an "Expert". Nothing in these courses are anything you can't easily learn on google or youtube. I hate to come off this way, but please release some relevant content for these certifications. I know I'm not the only one who wants to be validated, but if this course is all it takes then how can any employer feel confident they are hiring an "Expert".

 

I did not see an option to audit the courses like I have with other Coursera courses - how do you set that up? I only see a 7 day free trial.

 

You can audit the courses individually, you cannot audit the specialization. Best of luck, I'm about to take my chances with the test because it seems that this is all we are getting for now.

 

Best of luck man, let us know how it went, if it was easy or if the questions were like in the Exam Objectives examples.

 

@mr_rayskinner Did you ever do the Expert Gameplay Certification?
