Hello guys,

I am a type of person who learns from experience and I was thinking to create some kind of project to learn Unreal.

I have 6 years of experience with Unity and currently pursuing Computer Science, so programming isn’t new to me.

My question is, what kind of project do you guys suggest should I do? Would it be FPS, Racing game or TPS? Something that would cover most features of Unreal.

Thanks! :slight_smile:

In my opinion it would be fps It seems to be the easiest to learn .Although i have had many problems i am not a bright guy and learn very slowly lol .But it sounds like you would pick it up much quicker than the likes of me .I chose fps as the amount of animations needed is limited to hand movements etc (unless you use a character model that is )

Yes, an FPS is the easiest as UE4 has got pretty much everything in this genre, covered. At least if you are making a DOOM clone (good for beginner, boost the confidence, complete in a short time).

FPS it is then.

Thanks for replies everyone! :smiley:
