Yeah I did all the work for my group project. The rest of the group were girls and incapable. Once I finished the project I think one of the girls submitted it to this business idea expo thing as her own work, then had the gall to ask me for help with it.

Just about every teacher I've had has asked me if I wanted to work alone for group-work/partner stuff. It's a little awkward when they ask that in front of everyone else (and almost never asked anyone else that), but I always appreciated the out. My only memorable experience was completely tanking one project. I was with a bunch of chavs who tried to force me to do all the work because they desperately needed to pass, I told them I would but did nothing at all since I had the grades to still pass regardless of the project. Bitches were mad and stupid enough to complain to the teacher, who just told them they shouldn't have been so lazy.

>>4013752 I destroyed myself in that class. Between that fuckhole of a class, other classes and work I was sleeping every 2-3 days, constantly fixing up other people's fuck ups over the simplest of tasks. Partway through when the multimedia team realized they were too behind and actually had to do something they said their workload was too much and made the project manager try to get me and my team to DO ALL OF THEIR WORK. I said no, things were stretched, so she bitched to the faggot professor and tried to get me to lose marks. Enough was enough, so I went and saw the dean. All he did was say 'welcome to the real world' and sent me a link to a shitty youtube video saying why teamwork is the best study method. In the end we managed to get our game done and it was considerably better than most of the other games put on display at the end of the year, however the thing that made me rage was the people that contributed the absolute LEAST passed on the backs of others because of the class average. I have never raged so hard in my life over the hell that was that class. also >qantm- google it >offers a game design class >it's a fucking joke >"take this class and you'll be the next shigeru miyamoto when you get hired by microsoft and can make your dream game"

>>4013844 It was a huge clash that didn't make sense. They constantly kept adding to the theme until it was a huge clusterfuck of conflicting genres. Not saying it wouldn't work, but it was a concentrated class and we needed to do something simple so we could pump it out quickly. We had a 'client' (the dean) that needed to approve everything, so thank god he said it was stupid right off of the bat. I took control and turned it into a space themed shooter. Generic, but it was easy to do manage compared to trying to come up with fucktarded alien towers covered in swastikas and cogs or whatever.

>>4013981 Don't do it to yourself. The lead programmer was probably the only one who had it off worse than me. At the end of the trimester I had 250+ hours logged out of my own effort. He had well over 300. No one, especially the retard game designers seemed to realize the effort that went towards making that game work. It's like being a chef: it's your dream to work in that industry until you get there. It's the most thankless, time consuming job. You'll be treated like shit and you're easily replaced.

>>4008328 Group work in college made me realize why it is the the US will not longer be the dominant superpower of the world. Even the students who are in our "elite" institutions have no ambition, drive, or work ethic. I'm always, always forced to be the leader in these things because no one can take initiative, and I hate it because I am what you would consider beta, but fuck getting an "F" cause of these fraternity #YOLO fuckers.

We were building a lego robot that could turn and stuff. One guy did the building. One guy did the programming. One guy did nothing. I talked. They called me Talker. I also had the design idea.

They must critique my work and I must improve it based on their opinion. >Fuck group work.
