So here is my idea for you all, (Devs mostly) I am aware that there are only 4 devs currently, which is reasonable, as you aren't currently being paid. Well my idea is that you should implement some sort of donation button, or a pre order type thing so the existing devs could afford to hire one or two more devs, and the game could progress much more quickly, which I could only assume would lead to more pre-orders/donations, and keep updates and progress coming at a much quicker pace. As for the problem of finding experienced devs, they could use a website such as collabfinder to find some more people to help with the game. So thanks for reading my unlikely suggestion, guys. (Also, if there is another thread that addresses this, I apologize, as I searched, but did not find one.)
I like the developers we currently have, even though a new developer would help with BeamNG's progress, the new developer they would hire surely wouldn't be as good as the ones we have now. Besides that, I have the feeling it wouldn't go well...
Sometimes more people doesn't mean better or faster. They've been working together for a long time now, if you add someone new to the process it could be counterproductive.
I don't want them to add more devs at all, it might lead to a leak of BeamNG kinda like the leaked beta of GTA V.
Where's you proof that it's fake hmm, my friend had it and the beta keys were all over steam so I saw it first hand.
I choked on my drink. Where's your proof that it isn't fake, hmm? ~ As previously mentioned, more developers means greater likelihood of sloppy code, leaks, and conflicts of interest. The current team is competent enough to produce a quality simulator; don't rush them, don't suggest ways to speed progress up. To quote John Carmack on development of Doom 3: "It's done when it's done."
It's some loser giving out GTA IV with a Gosttown Paradise mod, which includes several car mods, a huge map mod and ton of graphical mods. There is no secret private beta GTA 5, nor will there ever be one, anyone who thinks otherwise honestly has the IQ of a frozen tomato. Do some research before you start claiming BS like this. I can't believe you're actually falling for this ****, when it's so easy to see it looks NOTHING like GTA 5, but if you really want proof: All the cars in there that are also in GTA 5, have not received any of the updates that the cars in the real GTA 5 have. For example the Landstalker is changed very slightly in the GTA 5 trailers, it's not in the mod cause it's just the GTA 4 Landstalker. In the real GTA 5, the Oracle has received new rims, the front end and rims of the Sabre GT are changed heavily in GTA 5. In the mod, both those cars are the same as in GTA 4... The sportscar they use in one of the videos is a Pagani Huyrary or whatever, Rockstar doesn't have licenses for real cars. Besides that, you really thinkg Rockstar would put brown fall-season trees next to palm trees? (Those brown trees are also from GTA IV by the way, they're in Middle Park). There you go, now go and apologize to anyone you ever claimed to that "your friend" has a beta of GTA 5 or that you saw it first hand, and hope they'll forgive you. The thing you "saw first hand" is just a modded GTA 4, nothing more. Gah. Please excuse me for the off-topicness, I honestly cannot stand people spreading plain BS like this.
People seriously believed that sh*t?? lmao. Oh god! Give me a minute while I complete laughing .......... On-topic: I agree, the current Dev team is at the Best (team ever ) they can be. Just adding another Dev won't make the game necessarily come out faster or better, it may delay it & make it more horrible (although I think our current Devs won't allow it).
Just curious but isn't this something that should be left to the actual developers to discuss? Not sure why the community needs to have a say in the size of the development team. This thread seems rather redundant. Anyway, teams are set up through collaboration, normally. The developers here have been working for years and probably don't even need or want anyone else. They have who they have for a reason. They obviously work well together. I'm confused why this even entered the OP's head.
True. That's why I said they are the Best they will ever be. But I wouldn't blame the OP's head, he probably didn't know or think this very thoroughly thru. He just thought about it & just put it out there. Anyway, seems discussion is over, so Lock?
