[Question] Is vb the right script for game?

Hi,

I got some scripting experience with a few scripts and now I want to make a chess game online.

What I mean:
- You download a application and when you start it you get a inlog screen. If you log in (after creating an account) you'll get into a kind of room in which you can pick an opponent. (who's also online) then you go and play against him.


Questions:
- Is vb the right script for making a chess game with server?
- Should I make the game data server sided? So it will be harder to hack?

Thank you for answering,

Zephery

VB is one of easiest programming languages but if you wanna make a game you should know that:
1. VC/C++ is faster and also is better for using probablitys.
2. VC/C++ load textors and bitmaps faster.
...

But generaly the speed depends on your algorithm and your ways. ;)
