Hello I am looking for a team who are willing to work on a Realistic, Large, Story-based, Open-World, Survival, Horror game. I'm looking for a team that is willing to stay with me through the whole project. 

For this project I will be needing:

Do you have any experience making games and leading teams?

What is youre field of expertise and contribution to the project?

Do you have any budget for basic assets?

You should really mentions those basics in youre ad, otherwise people have to assume youre just fishing for people making a game for you.

Hey, I didn't think to put that in sorry =P. Anyway I have made like one small project that I never finished because I didn't know how to make models or anything. I would put it all together working with the blueprints and widgets inside the engine. And what do you mean by basic assets? I do have a small budget but I don't know what kinds of things I'd have to buy.

@Vollkrasser meant 3D models, code, sound and other content used for making games.

This is dangerous as a project leader. You need to invest some time into learning practical game development skills.

You want to make a realistic, open world game; this means your team members must be professionals. Any professional artist, composer, coder has more experience working on games than you do. The result usually is that the more professional members take charge of the game and as a inexperienced developer you will be pushed out.

I have seen it happen, once even caused it.

Start with a much-much smaller game. Like learning to crawl before you build a airplane to fly.

Alright, I was also looking at making a small top-down horde game kind of like cod zombies or "Yet another zombie defence" on a smaller scale so maybe ill try that =P

I'm just going to lay it out for you.  I'm not trying to offend you or make you feel bad, but this is the truth.

You have no real experience in game development and especially not in leading a team or finishing a project, much less a "large" project.  You have no money (or else you'd have mentioned it).  And... you also have no chance whatsoever of doing any of what you said you want to do.  You will not get such a team, especially not of people who are capable of working on a large game like you describe, you will not get any real money from Kickstarter, and you will never make this game.

I hate the be the Simon Cowell here, but this is just the truth and you should focus on more realistic and attainable goals.  Even if you had millions of dollars and could somehow hire enough professionals to make this game, you will still never make this game because you have no experience, and I guarantee you that making a large and ambitious game is many, many... many times more difficult than you think it is.  You even said it yourself, you tried to make one small project and you failed to finish it.

This is a good idea, don't know why someone would downvote that; maybe they don't like zombie games.

That size is about right in complexity, but looking at "Yet another zombie defence" I can tell the art isn't for a beginner. So maybe the same idea, but with simpler art and sound; like a retro version of "Yet another zombie defence".

You could use https://www.bfxr.net/ for sound and https://opengameart.org/ for art. Then you can grab the engine of your choice and start making a demo. Once you have a working concept finding team members is a breeze.

Remember that being a professional Sound composer, Artist , Programmer, Developer or Writer, takes years of learning for each. To make games you need to know a little bit of everything and it helps greatly if you are a professional in at least one.

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate what you are saying and I understand which is why I plan to make a much smaller top-down zombie horde game. ?

Thank you so much for the links I will definitely look at those =P

Yes I think focusing on a smaller, more manageable project is a good move.  Also, your focus should be on just finishing it.  This means that you should regularly reassess your progress and make changes as needed.  Sometimes that might mean reducing the scope of the project, even if it was small to begin with, just as long as you can get to the finish line.

Once you have finished a project, you will have the experience to tackle something bigger.  Once you have finished a few of those, then at that point I think you can go out and find other to collaborate with.  I think trying to put together a team and lead it at this point is premature and will almost certainly fail, and not necessarily in the "it failed but I learned a lot" way.  Probably more in the "it failed and it was a total waste of time" way.
