I just want to know waht people want in a developer team these days, because I've seen wuite a few people throw some hate balls at these guys. Namely EA and Activision, but again, just want your opinion.

Trying to monopolise the industry is generally why EA and Activision get hate.

To clarify, I don't want to monopolize the industry. All I want to do is make an epic game.

Yep. And I'm looking for people to join my dev team that I'm trying to make. Though the work would be done whenever we got the chance, I can't pay anybody until money is made.

Most likely not. Considering the work that game devs do, they are not paid as well as other software developers. They also have to work longer days towards the end of the development cycle, and it all culminates in 'crunch time' where everyone on the team must go through every aspect of the game to make any last minute changes/fixes.

P.S.: This doesn't belong in Off-Topic Discussion, and will most likely be locked very soon. I suggest starting a new thread like this in General Games Discussion if you would like to continue the thread.

Hm. Good idea, i guess. But seriously, my only purpose for this was to make an epic game. Also, seeing what you said about pay, I think maybe we can change the rules with that one. But whoever is on the team will be paid whatever they didn't get before money was made.
