I heard an intended beta release is early 2017, however throughout 2016 playable modules of the game will be released so players can checkout and enjoy small pieces of the game before the full thing explodes in our face. I am very excited!

Cafes and nightclubs won't be owned by players, so I don't think bars will tbh. There's no info regarding bars ownership specifically.

Zeus Corporations™ Dear Citizens of Identity, We are Zeus Corporations, we have the goal of becoming on of the most powerful companies in Identity. We will be holding trials/selections for different jobs within our company. Of course, we will not be taking on anyone who cannot be sure to prove themselves to be trust worthy. On a whole we have the goal of putting our brand on every single product, and generally making life easier for the people. We will be lowering the price of your standard groceries from which can end up costing you a lot of money over time as it is. We will achieve this by having our own farms, from which we will sell you the product at a more affordable price (c). Along the side of this idea, we will also be running a security operation with a twist. We will, of course, give people trained security officers to protect a specific VIP if necessary, but we will also carry out "deeds" that can be considered, a little in-humane at some stages. What can I say, business is business. Jobs up for grabs: > Gun/Firearm Managers > General Store Managers > Security Officer (also comes under the class of PMC) > Unreported Activity (No information given) > Clothes Store Owner > Head of distribution (will be based in our HQ) > Head of security (Based in HQ, but also has the job of leading security in the field) > Vehicle Mechanic (we need lots of different mechanics, depending on what needs to be repaired/upgraded/any work that really needs to be done) > Medical Officers (we need some medical trained personnel, as we will be having a private hospital, which supplies only the best health care) > Car Traders (this may become illegal, but of course, one of the CEOs will explain everything you need to know when you join) > Boat Traders (this may become illegal, but of course, one of the CEOs will explain everything you need to know when you join) Perks: For every Single Job, people will get perks. An example of what I mean is, say for example our clothes stores, you will not only have access to cheaper clothes, but you will have free medical care, and never have to worry about not having enough money to survive again. We will also insure that your family is well looked after, and protected to the best of our ability. Just to make sure you understand that we are a serious business, the first few people who are actually in, will be getting a large bonus on top of their usual pay check (this will apply for all jobs).

I don't know, but if they did, there would have to be a simple enough way to tell the difference, otherwise it would mess up the economy.

My pleasure helping.

Loving this idea, I hope it goes well for ya.

Worth it.

grinding dungeons for a mask? congratulations! you*re playing blade and soul how it's supposed to be played

Run one dungeon 306 times to get the mask. Used Soul Shield chests to keep track.

Beta is later this year around august to december. The first module will be roughly march or april and they intend for Full Game release Early 2017. Also delays are inevitable. @Vix can give more info on this.

Ugh, 3000

This is the first and hopefully last time. I have an associate that runs a gunshop and will probably sell to the civz making sure the civz getting their guns legally for defense reasons. The Italian mafia has not died out one bit. No mafia has died out the only thing that has died out is making money easier with bookmaking via casino's and stuff. Fun Fact: The Italian mob "owns" the blades that spins around the turbin in one of those weather-electric-wind-power-energy things. Which means every country or company that buys a weather-turbin gives money to the italian mafia. Easier explained; The wind turbin factory for the blades are in the Region of Calabria the 'Ndrangheta clans control the area. Or did they own the shipping port that was there? I couldn't remember.

The Italian Mafia definitely delves in drugs, but it does a lot of other stuff whereas the cartels are built on drugs.

Any Updates on Town Square?

Then why should they make this game at all?? I think we're losing track here, i don't want to sound rude but it's really an awful idea. It would basically drop the number of copies sold if the game required other simulators to run. We're talking about a game, not a quick hub to switch from game to game

It would be rdm and if they make it as the rocks dont hurt people, it wouldn't be realistic, so , no

some crimes will be auto reported

his calm down. it's just a fake picture

From one James to another, welcome to the community!

We learn C# and C++.

Well............SHIT. Guess I'll just stick to getting rid of evidence......

I read that they don't plan to allow players to dispose of corpses. Corpses will just despawn after a while.

Good to hear, I got cheap prices, and plenty of ways to make any unwanted 'laundry' disappear.

We'll be in touch...

welcome back @JamesLuck01! what programming languages do you use?

Welcome to the community!!!

Welcome Jamesluck! I studied Game Development myself. Gotta be careful with some of those for-profit technical schools! Are you studying programming, or art?

Nice to see people starting groups

Good luck, I'll be hunting you down

Being that both criminals and police are real players, stealth is as effective as you'd expect. Hiding behind a trash bin in an alley might just work; there are definitely places to hide. This was all taken into consideration with world design. Around each bank or store, we knew people would be on the run. How easy you are for the police to track depends on how wanted you are. If you've been a very naughty the police can be alerted of your presence, but for situations like this tracking won't be very easy.
