2 pointsIf it were free to play it would either become a pay to win shitehouse or encourage people to piss about. The latter because when you don't pay for a game you care a lot less about playing it properly.

1 pointHey Guys, I thought I would share with you a little guide I designed a few years ago for businesses in Arma 3 Life. It's a simple business model that worked pretty well. It's more or less an algorithm for any business you choose to make. It allows for your employees to be paid, and will minimize them breaking off for sole profit. It is purposely written so that anyone can understand. --------------- Business Model System This is the business model system for maximum efficiency for any business. This model uses a percentage based pay and is designed to be easily modified and easily implemented. Here is the Key for the following guide: A- Overhead (This is the money you need to cover your expenses) B- Profit (This is the money you make after your initial investment has been covered) C- Employee Payroll (This is the money for you to pay your employees) D- Investors Payroll (This is the money to pay your investors) ----------------- Generally speaking you need to arrange all of your investors payroll and your employee payroll to only come from your profits. It is important to remember what your total investment is, your profit, and your payroll. Be sure that you keep an eye on your finances. This is an example of the business model: Your total Overhead (A) is $1000 You have one investor, who has invested $1000 into your business in exchange for 5% of your profit (B). This places a $20,000 valuation on your company. You have one employee plus yourself. Your employees and investors make 5% of your profits. From 100% of your profit (B), you now owe 10%, which leaves you with 90% of your profit. Your profit is $5000. This means that $250 goes to your investor, $250 goes to your employees. 90% of your profit or $4500 is now left over. You invest $2000 into your Overhead this time. You have the same amount of investors. Your company's valuation is still only $20,000. You have gained another employee plus yourself. You have banked $2500. If your profit from a $1000 investment was $5000, this means you made $6000 from the total investment. In turn you expect to make double because of your investment of $2000. This puts you at a $10,000 profit. 5% of $10,000 is $500. You pay your employees $500 and your investor $500. This leaves you with a total of $9000 profit. This algorithm is a progressive system. You do not have to pay any specific percentage, I was simply explaining the math with the easy percentages. ---------------- Q: Why would someone work for me, if they could make the same amount as me? A: Your employee pays no overhead, he uses your equipment, he uses your services, he uses your resources. He has no risk involved. If he is robbed, it is not his money he is losing. (Or She). Also, your employee will scale with more employees and more profit. Whereas if he were to do it all on his own, he would make the same singular profit without the ability to scale, unless he were to create his own company. (Or She). Not to mention, you could promote the employee to making more of a percentage. Q: Why not split the profits evenly? A: You can do that! Except you do need to take out your next expenses before dividing up the profit. Always cover your next venture. Q: Why bank the money? A: The reason for banking your money is insurance. If you are robbed, or an expensive piece of equipment is lost, stolen, or broken, you need to be able to cover those expenses. You pay yourself, the same amount as you pay your employees. You bank the remainder for upgrades and incidentals. Q: Is this the only system that works? A: Heavens no. There are many different systems that work, this is just an easy one to start with until you get your feet wet. ----------------------- Should you have any questions, or anything you would like to add to this guide (Business Model) please reply and leave a comment.

1 pointWHAT ABOUT YOUTUBERS AS CARRER? Actually, I know there will be computers, notebooks, smarphones and etc... so they should have an Social Media similliar to Youtube, where the players would be able to record their own videos. Maybe they could Record games (yeah, maybe they should add mini-games to the game and make them recordable). Or make DailyVlogs of their life on the game, or tutorials, pranks or everything else. Just record what the people want to see. What u guys think?

1 pointThe Corleone Family * Overview We pride ourselves on being careful and reasonable. When we say we are going to do something we do it, always keeping our word. That way, when promised to do something it was believed by all without question. Our reputation for violence gives us a great deal of power in the underworld. At the end of the day we are a family. * Initiation To become a full member of the Mafia - to become a "man of honour" - an aspiring member has to pass a Mafia initiation ritual. The ceremony involves significant oaths,blood and an agreement is made to follow the rules of the Mafia as presented to the inductee. * Ranks Associates - Associates are not actual members of the Mafia but rather anyone who teams up with them on a criminal enterprise of some kind. Soldiers - Soldiers are the lowest ranking members also known as 'The Grunts/Gangsters' who do the majority of the work, making deliveries, picking up cash, and putting their life on the line in the hope of making a name for themselves by demonstrating their loyalty to the organization. The Capo - The Capo also known as The Captain or Lieutenant of a division within the Mafia. He leads a crew of soldiers and reports directly to the boss or underboss, who hands down the instructions. He is also in charge of handling most money. Underboss - Underboss is second-in-command of the crime family. He is ready to stand in for the boss at any given moment. The family may have two underbosses depending on the situation. The Boss - The boss also known as 'The Don' makes all the important decisions, much like a CEO of a company would. He is greatly respected and widely feared by his subordinates, Although he is very kind and generous. He holds a great influence over the entire organization. *Mission Statement Our mission is to be the wealthiest organization in this world. When i say wealthiest organization I'm not only speaking about The Boss. The gangsters will be strapped with the latest and greatest equipment to pursue their objective. Not only will we put fear into our enemies but we will lead in power and set an example. *Kept it short and simple because we are a secretive organization, any other information will be shared within the group.

1 pointCould there possibly be a driving license that people will need in order for them to drive? so people don't end up driving recklessly. Well in order to have this driving license they will need to do a simple test before they can purchase a vehicle.

1 pointA lot of people know me as Hill, simple as that; Though my real name's Mike Barrow. I'm a conspiracy theorist, I consider it a way of life.. Anything's possible man! You just gotta keep an open mind is all, keep an open mind, open to experiences. I see a lot of beauty.. the tree's, the people, animals the universe and the choices that are made. Freedom, it's chaotic isn't it? Behind every set of eye's is a story to be had, a story to be told; Just beautiful. What's the meaning of life? Perhaps it's the choices we make? Our love and compassion? Instinctive primal aggression? Or maybe something entirely incomprehensible devised by a being of stunningly unimaginable beauty and intelligence? We're all seeking out our place, something we can be proud of. Often we overlook our boundaries, we strive for something just out of reach but just close enough to touche. We reach for the stars, struggling to find ourselves along the way. I keep to myself, often you can find me roaming the woods, just observing. You can consider me brave, the clowns don't scare me now and neither do you. After all, "Fear is the path to the Dark Side; Fear leads to Anger, Anger leads to Hate, and Hate to Suffering." ~Yoda Spread peace, love, understanding and wisdom, my friends; So tell me, who are you?

1 pointWhile it's cool, it won't be implemented mainly because of this being a game with bigger plans. I know that there was a point where I was gonna make a series of my friends and I goofing off and doing dumb stuff and calling it a show. But being a YouTuber seems too far fetched

1 pointLooks intresting. Maybe put some pictures in and place some headers. Looks great so far!

1 pointI still think it can be accomplished even without a system in place in the game. It will just need to be accomplished by police literally going undercover, and joining/infiltrating a criminal organization.

1 pointIf this was ever going to be a "Free 2 Play" game I would never play it and would request a refund of my money I pledged on kickstarter. I hate F2P games as i would rather buy my games than be a cheap skate.

1 pointThey is a very easy way around not having a set system. Police could simply have an "undercover agent" join the criminal organization and relay incriminating information and evidence of that organization to their superiors in the police. The undercover would have to make sure they do not commit illegal activities while maintaining their cover within the organization. Police would then have a way of building a case against criminal organizations, and adds another sense of realism to criminality and the policing of it. Just my thoughts tho.

1 point10/10 for one of the best 70's classic. This song is a cover. But I like the White Stripes version better for the moody tone and sad sounding instruments. Hopefully you like it just as much.

1 pointToday we publish the first Identity Insider update, bringing you detailed information about key systems in Identity. Our website has expanded with a small page detailing corporations and their classes, also available below: Corporations in Identity You've made a lot of cash working odd jobs, or maybe even the odd less-than-legal task; now that you've had a taste of success, it's time to forge an empire. Corporations will allow the successful with a little extra cash to become driving forces in Identity's dynamic economy. Corporations are organizations similar to, but separate from, gangs and other social structures. They have the added ability of owning assets and issuing work orders to their real-player employees. Some assets, such as the largest cargo trucks, are available only to corporations. Once formed, the corporation is assigned a telephone number for public contact and the director (owner) can build a logo using an in-game design tool. It's then time to hire a staff and get to work. Classes of Corporations Delivery Delivery corporations can buy large vehicles for big hauls, vehicles not available to the general public. While any player can deliver goods in vehicles such as vans, to get the big-bucks you'll need to join a corporation. Legal Let's face it, crimes happen and criminals are going to be arrested. They'll need someone on the outside to convince the jury that they did nothing wrong. This is where legal corporations come into play, and their services aren't always cheap. Transportation People need to get from point A to point B and they don't always have the means to do that themselves. Transportation corporations own special vehicle assets including taxis and more, helping those in need get where they need to be. Manufacturing From the shoes on your feet to the sofa under your seat, almost everything in Identity is built and crafted by other players. Manufacturing corporations give their employees access to a wider variety of constructables and resources, for a cut of the profits. Always Expanding As with most things in Identity, we at Asylum will constantly be expanding this system adding new classes of corporations and building on those already available. Identity's release is only the beginning. If you have any ideas for a well-suited corporation class, let us know on the forums.

1 point4/10 way to country sounding for me, not to mention the video you had was unavailable in my country
