Hi,
I wanted to ask why there isn't a team request forum? I think it would be a lot easier to create games with help of another person. How many people can create game alone? How long do you spend time to make game in FPS Creator?
I know about that TGC shop and sites for free FPSC stuff, but isn't a lot easier to create a game with a team(another persons), or alone.
Thanks for reading this, and replying,

unfortunately there were too many threads that were something like this:


"I waNt A teamz. I wIl ned 15 programerz 20 modlerz, and mayb 4 or 5 musicanz. I wil b the ideaz person. U will get ur name in the creditz if u help me.

Thx
"

Realy I didn't know? Buut I meaned something like friendly team, not like that. Those people that asked for that probably wouldn't do anything.

Exactly, but it's simpler to just not have the requests in the first place. If you want to make a team, start e-mailing around OR join something like Gunner Games and get a team.

Gunn3r Games is kind of under construction. We're working on coding the forum right now so that we can get that back up and running at our new site, moltenbytedesign.com. But, thanks for the suggestion. At Molten Byte Design, I think I'll continue the idea for the Game Ideas board, where people who are seriously considering making their idea into a fully fledged game, or at least trying, can try the waters with their idea, get help on improving it and possibly make a team out of it. I'll post up a new topic when the new site is ready, and point you in the direction of that section.

Again, thanks Bendak11, for the friendly suggestion.


TGC used to have a Team Request forum, similar to the way they have the FPSC Chat or the Geek Culture boards. But, like puppyofkosh said, there were too many people asking unrealistic requests for little to no return. There were only a handful of teams that actually successfully sprouted from the Team Request board, and because of the headache it posed to the moderators and everyone else involved, it was far more logical to shut it down. This same issue was brought up fairly recently in the Geek Culture thread.

Yes; I created a section on Black Draco Games, for people to put together Teams. I even took it a step further and offered Teams, that met certain criteria, the ability to have a "hidden" section for their project:

Need Space for a Team?
