Aside from personal preference, student status, finances and goals!!

Pretty sure I went over this yeah??

Sounds to me like you booted it up for two seconds, didn't like the UI and went back to your beloved pirated 3ds max to mod Halo some more and to hell with any other software out there!

Could you even give me one valid reason based on your personal experience outside of Halo max scripts why you think 3DS is "better?"

I don't pirate, so that argument is invalid. Sort of a childish argument too.

Either way, I never said your preference was misguided, only that Blender is inferior to most other professional tools out there. Also, you don't need a school email to have a student version:

I heard that you need a school email address to join the Autodesk Education Community, but our school does not issue them to students. How can I get my students onto the community website?
A school email address is not required to join. If your school is already participating, students will be prompted to specify their school during registration. If your school is not yet participating, you may request to add your school.

The only advantage I see is that the community is relatively supportive like PolyCount and that you can sell your work for profit. Enjoy.
