Muse dev team ever gonna expand?
« on: February 21, 2015, 03:33:36 pm »
I imagine as you get closer and closer to the, I assume, finalised form of the game as it reaches adventure mode, you are gonna need more people to help you out through the growing pains.

So when is the team gonna expand to catch up with the inevitable increase in work load?

They could also hire on a temp basis to get large work loads done. This is a popular thing MMOs do. They'll have a larger initial dev team, then a smaller team to maintain after the major development is done. However, that also requires money and if Muse has enough to afford that kind of setup. Adventure mode wasn't reached as a goal in the kickstarter. It was teased but not reached.

Trouble is, everyone forgets that and part of the reason why is because AM sounds just so damn good. It is the kind of game world many of us are dreaming of and I'm sure Muse dreams of too. In fact as COOP has progressed, it has taken on more ideals of what I was expecting AM to have. Originally I thought COOP would just be a simple COOP vs bosses or objective fights but now we've been teased a SCII Arcade conquest mode where we can join nations and conquer the world. So I wouldn't be surprised if eventually COOP takes on more AM features as it progresses.

I just wanted to say, that indie game developers do not earn much money, and no matter the odds Muse is one of those rare very lucky ones to have barely decent income. I guess at least.

fixed

gotta use money to make money. But regardless, they will need some help later on the line. Not a matter of why but a matter of when.

Ask Matt (Kayvias) via email, feedback@musegames.com
Keep in mind Muse have been known to take on interns from the playerbase as well as general recruitment! :)
It could be Muse don't want to publicly announce recruitment to avoid the huge volumes of applications they'd receive and have to sift through.

I... would be appalled for anyone unaware of the 07th expansion creations. Higurashi being the most well known.

Also ahegao thread confirmed.

I like how we've basically coined our own "Getoutofhereifyouwanttoremainsane" term.
