Hi Folks ! If you dont want to read my blabla go directely on the section next to the Real United Teams 4 Games Society Banner.
I realized while designing my independent game project [UNPAID/ROYALTY] Build a TEAM for SWORDS ARENA Multiplayer Project - Job Offerings - Epic Developer Community Forums
many problems arise whose principal is not technical but team members of the general way.
The new members integrated into the teams are often enthusiastic at first and later the motivation decline,
less participation in the project or no more news from them or they quit the group without giving any reasons…
I can understand the reasons that led some members to do so when there is an independent games based on free or royalty as the financial engine is not immediately present,
and that’s a shame because create an independant game and foremost a passion for designing video games with the excellent tool that is Unreal Engine 4.
That’s why I decided to create this post to collaboration between teams and help each other with motivated,serious and steady peoples.
Also give a chance to the beginner who wishes to join a team.
