*Frank walks in the backroom of the club, Antonio and Paulie behind him. He hangs up his leather jacket, and pours himself a dram of whisky. Frank: "Hey boys, what going on? By the way did you hear that a new high rise condo was just proposed for Schuyler heights? That's close to our turf and that means they should build the condos with our concrete, if they don't want that building to fall. Hehe, you know what I mean?"

Liberal/Libertarian? How could you be both? They are not even remotely similar.

Will do man! Look forward to seeing you in game pal. Thank you, it was really just something that came to mind, as The Warriors is one of my all-time favorite films.

*After sitting for a few minutes and collecting his thoughts, Kevin grabs his gun off of the table and heads out to his Velociraptor. He climbs into the truck, and places the handgun in its spot in the center console. Kevin drives through the business sector, stopping at his other shop just on the outskirts. He unlocks the door and heads inside, where he sets to work on the 1968 Mustang GT still sitting on the lift. As he works he starts muttering to himself* "Great going genius, it's bad enough having the mob higher ups expecting you to work on their expensive cars, but now you have started getting involved with the fucking Yakuza" *Kevin hears the chime of the door opening out front, so he heads out to see who it is, grabbing a large wrench off the table* "Hey who's there, we're closed today"

Looking forward to buying some nice bespoke suits from you.

It'd be cool if you could indulge in dif. activities in jail instead of having to sit there doing nothing the entire time (like how Arma life jails are ). If you could establish a fighting career in jail (through an underground illegal fight club like Mafia 2/Luke Cage had), have a better cell if you had a powerful position prior to being jailed, work out in the recreational yard, have corrupt correctional officers (through RP), have the ability to pay bail, shank rival gang members in the cafeteria, etc. then that'd be amazing. You should also be able to make money (maybe through fighting, trade) or even establish a reputation for your character to set yourself up for when you are released (if you wanted to join a gang, form a group, get jail connections, etc.) You should also be allowed to leave whenever you want (of course after serving your min. jail term depending on the crime). When you are ready to leave and you've served the min. amount of time, you could request to "modify your sentence" and ask the judge to be released early (just to follow RP), ultimately allowing your release. Anyways, just an idea, if you'd like to build off/take some pieces from it go right ahead. Maybe busting yourself out and living as a fugitive could be an option? (with the help of friends. etc.) Overall the game looks great! Keep up the good work dev team, can't wait to play it.

After you server your sentence you can choose to stay longer!!!! (confirmed by a developer) Ok, so there will be a lot of different activities in the jail you can do and its already been stated by the developers "it is like a whole new game in prison"

Who we are We are a group of people who buy and loan. We mainly loan people money with slight interest on top. Along with the loans we need a deposit on the loan, depending how big the loan is this could be anything from a piece of art to your home. We also buy/sell homes and any property straight of the bat. Who we need I need a couple of confident people who can manage separate deals and please the clients. I need some people who are good at math and can calculate exactly what deposit needs to be taken. I also need a third party debt collector agency *Will add more soon*

Is anyone else here extremely interested in the art aspect of the game? if so I would love to discuss it with other players and form a company maybe where we as a group of artists can work together to create and promote our art around the game world. Lol let me know what you guys think! PS: Sorry if im positing this in the wrong section of the forums lol

I'm wondering if you wanted to impersonate someone, let's say if you're going to rob a bank and you terminate and steal the clothes of a bank guard to rob a bank on the inside, will those kind of clothing drop? I understand personal clothing won't drop, but what about clothing for jobs or anything that's not given? Thanks, Idka

Is there an ETA for the first module? The hype is too real sorry if this is somewhere else but it would take ages to find

I personally would have 1 week max jail time as it brings more role play and will cause people to think about their actions.

Liam M. Johnson Liam M. Johnson, born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. Previous member of the US Army, now got roots deep in the crime world. At age 6, Liam's dad was shot in downtown Chicago due to his racist beliefs, which he fortunately never got to pass on to Liam. Liam grew up with his lone mother on welfare, in a terrible neighbourhood of downtown Chicago. At age 17, Liam joined the Army. He didn't have a lot of reason to live at home, nor money to live for. After having been in the army for 10 years, Liam returns home to Chicago. He's earned his fair share of money, but saw no reason to stay. He was tired of the endless amount of training, tired of seeing his friends drop out, or die at worst. Liam was tired of it all. He tried getting in contact with his mother again, which he unfortunately lost contact to after he joined the army, but with no luck. He was all on his own. He jumped from minimum-wage job to minimum-wage job, he was once again, tired. After spending nights at the local bar, drinking away his money in cheap booze, he saw something special. Outside the pub, 2 men quickly drove up to a bystander on the street, stopped for a quick second, handed something in a small bag in exchange for money. In a matter of seconds they were gone again, and Liam was left to wonder. He had overlooked a drug deal. And he was interested. After Liams time in the army, he had a good knowledge of the drug community, due to some fellow people in the army knowing some people from the drug community. Liam saw it as an opportunity to try something new. To get something out of his life. A few weeks pass and Liam is involved in crime. However, Liam didn't get in to sell or manufactor drugs, he also didn't get in to control the drug market. Liam joined because he knew what his abilities were. Liam was a cold hearted killer, and great with a gun. However, he wasn't stupid. He wasn't interested in becoming one of their "Tough guys" that is just used to protect their turf. Liam was going to work at the top. He was going to do the work, that required brain, he was going to work with the boss. Time flies by, and Liam is the person you call if you need something done. Need to know where someone lives, need to know what is being said about you, or do you need someone killed, with no evidence to trace at all? Then Liam was your guy. Liam did the dirty work for the boss, without him nor the boss getting caught, ever. Liam didn't care about the other cartels, he was loyal. But he came at a price. Fail to meet that price, and he wouldn't think twice about putting a bullet trough your head. For that reason, Liam is now looking for a new job. However, he's not willing to work at street level, as some nutjob "Tough Guy" Liam's more than that. And if you need someone like Liam, who's willing to do jobs that are insane, boring, inhumane or anything like it, and you're willing to pay the price, you're will never need another again.

Marcis nervosly looks toward stranger as he speaks:"What? What you said? What do you want from me, A?" As he finish his sentence the cap would fall on the ground and Marcis would take a sip from a bottle as he continues to stare at stranger still looking nervous.

*WARNING, PROBABLY BORING AS HELL* *Fionn walked across the deck of the 'Glamour', a 12 year old fishing vessel, to the railings on the side one the ship. He was pale, tall and muscular. His eyes were a light green, so light they were nearly gray. His hair was a dark brown, nearly black, messy and curly. He pulled his pouch of tobacco from the pockets of his oilskins and effortlessly rolled a cigarette. He placed it between his lips, lit it and took a deep breath. He looked out onto the sea and towards the approaching land. His new home-to-be.* I'd been working on this shithole of a boat for 2 months to get here. Most people would have flown over as soon as they got their VISA but I knew I could get there and earn a bit of scratch while doing it. 2 months later and here I was. I began rolling another cigarette. I placed the finished product behind my ear, put the pouch away and enjoyed the peace. It was a beautiful day and the sounds of the sea were relaxing. "Hey, man", a voice came from behind me. Without looking around I took the cigarette from my ear and held it out. The person took it and joined me at the railing. Mattie Ferguson was tall. Really tall. He made me look miniscule beside him. He was black, bald and had soft baby blue eyes. A kind man who was easy to be around, even when nothing was being said. We stood together without speaking and watched the sea. When we'd both finished our cigarette he turned to me. He gestured towards the land, significantly closer now, and broke the silence. "So this is your stop?" "Yup", I put an emphasis on the 'P', making a popping noise. "Last time I saw a view this good we were sailing away from Ireland. Makes me miss home a bit." It was true. I love my homeland but I just had to get away. This place was a new opportunity. I'd originally moved out to New York but after 2 years of running with the wrong people I returned home. 6 months later and I was saying goodbye again. I didn't know what I'd do once I landed but I was determined to make it work. "Got work lined up?", Mattie asked. He was concerned, I could tell. We'd grown close on this trip. Everyone else on the boat seemed to be out to get us and the skipper was a bastard. "Not yet but I never was the planning type. I'll wing it. I'm sure I'll find something in construction to keep me busy for a few weeks until I get something more permanent. Anyway, the money from this trip ought to be enough to get me settled." "Well first thing we're doing when we land is getting a beer. We're only stopping for one night so it'll be our last drink together. And our first. Fuck, that's kind of sad.", Mattie continued like this until we pulled up into port. I didn't mind, his ramblings were entertaining. An hour later we docked in port. An hour later I was off the boat and onto dry land. I had my one bag full of belongings and my paycheck. Mattie had to help unload the boat so he said he'd catch up with me in a few hours. I'd changed out of my oilskins into a pair of jeans and a casual shirt with the sleeves rolled up. I walked through the docks and immediately recognised similar behaviour to what I'd experienced on the docks of New York. Shady deals hiding in plain sight, dock workers turning a blind eye and too many guys too well dressed to be dock workers patrolling warehouses and boats. The whole place stunk of money. It made me nervous. New York started out the same. I just wanted to make an honest living but it just spiraled out of control. I kept my head down and walked faster.

Yes both i'd imagine. maybe small boosts but will have drawbacks greater than the boosts.

No, it won't probably be decided until beta. also the max/ temporary max prison time is set to 45 mins for testing but will be longer in the future.

If you guys dont have a mechanic yet I'll be more than happy to be your private mechanic.

Glad to see you guys are still active. Thanks man. Hope to see your organization,Inagawa-Kai, do well, my friend!

That would indeed be right ThomasKilliah, but everyone eventually will most likely end up in Court at some point! Thank you though for this point!

As Governor taxes will be low, however to answer your question your taxes will contribute towards free healthcare, crime will not be high through the laws I'll be implementing. My priorities are ensuring everybody has a home, a job with guaranteed safety, free medical care, transportation costs won't be too expensive however taxes and government funding I.e money out of my own pocket will contribute to running the economy. Criminals won't be able to acquire firearms legally and I'll be cracking down on drug crime but Crime as a whole will not be a problem. My Government will treat all citizens with the same respect and ensure that the economy is in a very good place but that all citizens are looked after. I hope this answer is satisfactory and thank you for taking the time to read it, positive criticism would be appreciated

Server refresh will most definitely be an option, what if say half the community that once was isn't active anymore?

The deleopers have confirmed that weapons will be heavily customisable, although i cant find the tweet to confirm this.

**Marcis dressed in white hoodie, black jeans and white sneakers which appears to be a little bit dirty. As he walks down the street he stumbls upon a brick as he starts to fall, he manages to get his balance back and keeps on walking. He enter a 24/7 and goes toward drink section as he grabs bottle of beer (Corona) and looks around. *No-one would be watching* He slips bottle under his hoodie looks around once more. He turns around and heads toward another section as he sees cheap chips, he takes them and heads towards chasier. Passes to her as he carefully inserts his right arm in his pocket while with left arm he tries to hold the bottle so it doesn't fall out.* Chasier:"Hello sir! It will be 1 dollar for chips" **Marcis grabs dolar from his packet as he passes to chasier and quickly grabs pack of chips and heads towards exit. As soon as he gets out from shot he looks around and heads toward alley-way near the shop. He then takes the bottle out from his hoodie and opens it with his ligther as he starts to drink it.**

@HICA12345, Thanks for being so polite. We hope to see you out on the Streets.

I'm just bumping this up again to ensure that new forum members will have a chance to see this post.

Welcome Welcome! Granted, you sound like a better joker than this guy: But still, make sure to lock the room to your door before joining us in Identity See you in the town square!

Hopefully 3 month ban

Look up Phoenix jones ...arrested , back on the streets a not dead.

*Rosso stands up and puts both hands down on the table* "I believe I do. These little motherfuckers have burned down some of my stock houses around town with some very expensive vehicles inside. I haven't had the time to track them down and get this all a... sorted out.... yet but yeah, I'd say they have been a pretty big pea in my mattress but, enough of that. The vehicles... that's my business and that's what I'm here for, we can discuss the bikers later." *Rosso walks over to a keypad and opens up a garage door revealing six cargo crates* "Your dad is really good at getting these vehicles for me and especially after the clusterfuck of a mess last deal was he has promised something extra." *Rosso reaches into his pocket and pulls out a list with all six cars and their prices. He walks over and sets it on the table in front of Shenji* List: Mclaren P1 GTR - $3,510,000 Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita $4,825,000 Ferrari Pininfarina Sergio - $3,000,000 Pagani Huayra BC - $2,750,000 Ferrari Laferrari FXX K - $2,900,000 Ferrari F60 America - $2,515,000 Sub Total: $19,500,000 "These are the cars I requested and those are the cars I expect in the containers. And this time hopefully there aren't any vehicle tracking devices in these because I can't have people coming after me trying to reclaim their "misplaced" cars. *sighs and takes a breadth* And if all this is so, there is twenty million dollars in gold bars in this suitcase waiting for you and your dad. Are we at an understanding here?"

Ultimately, that is the case, we'll need to wait until the game is released. That sounds like a good idea, working together to form a party to cater to a wide range of individuals. I definitely look forward to the future of the development of this community, and seeing where the political aspect of the game takes us. It would be a pleasure to go into more detail with you.

I think it would be really cool if you could become a Bagel Shop owner and hire people to make and sell bagels for you in the Bagel shop.

What would be expected of the Chief of Research and Development or the Chief of Finance? Are there any prerequisite skills that are required or preferred for these positions?

It may not be a survival game but it is supposed to be realistic. that being said a system like that would give a great level of importance to take care of your character. a hygiene bar would be cool too!

Alright Awesome! Looking forward to this.

Cops are heros so you could become an officer and reduce the crime rate in the world of Identity!

I think a huge way of making sure the consequences are harsh are making sure they stay with you. If you commit a crime, that would be on your record and companies hiring you might see that. You wouldn't want that to stay with you. If you repeat a crime after punishment, your punishment should be worse than before.

Just purchased the "FOUNDER" option from the store. Looking forward to meeting all of you and playing this amazing game once it releases.

Legalize all drugs? Your community will be destroyed by meth and heroin. Plus your throwing all guns into the mix. I give your party 6 months before falling.

@DanTheMan007 I made all his black text into white so it's readable. "A duel can only be challenged by the insulted party. therefore if a gentleman insults another member he cannot simply duel them with the intention of hurting them with the aim of starting a feud.Both parties must appoint a "second". this must be a trusted neutral party who shall try and end the dispute without the exchange of shots or blows. If a challenge is declared it must be through the seconds rather than their principals(being the duellists themselves). If an apology is made they must inform their principle and try and resolve the issue or quarrel.If all fails and the duel is to be, the challenged party shall have the liberty to pick the weapons, place, time, and if using pistols how many paces shall be taken. weapons must be within reason. canes and pistols of high calibre eg, desert eagle or revolver would be used as duelling weapons due to their heavy recoil and high calibre.A cane or blade duel should be fought until first blood or satisfaction, satisfaction is defined as the challenged party apologising or explaining away his insult and then followed by the challenger apologising for his retort and challenge to arms. A cane duel must be stopped after 5 minutes of fencing if neither party is harmed and the seconds shall then ask the men if they are satisfied or if they wish to explain their reasoning for insult or apologise. If neither parties are satisfied they may continue for another round ending with the same procedure. If the duel surpasses 3 rounds without injury this is dishonourable and somewhat ridiculous and must be stopped and if the parties are dissatisfied they may change their weapon of choice (this time the challenger must choose). or they may reschedule another duel for a later date that must be within the next 3 days. If neither party are injured in the second duel the quarrel must be declared over and the men will be told to argue no more of the matter. A sword duel must be stopped as soon as the first injury is made.Dress code: Duellists should not wear jackets or ties. hats are also not advisable. they should wear either a shirt(long sleeve preferably or sleeves rolled down) or they may choose to wear a waistcoat.Pistol duels should be governed seriously and strictly by the seconds (who must have their own weapons incise a scuffle breaks out of someone cheats). The seconds must load the pistols for their principals and then proceed to make the duellists stand the set amount of paces apart. they must then aim their pistols and on a signal they will have 3 seconds to fire their shots(misfires count as shots, strictly not "dummy" firing. which means purposefully missing). after one exchange of shots the procedure at the end of a fencing round will be given. A chance to be satisfied or apologise. if not, they may proceed again for another 3 rounds. If the duel surpasses 3 rounds it will be declared over. If seconds disagree with each other and resort to exchanging shots or blows it must be at the same time as their principals and at the same distance. Seconds however, should try to remain neutral." All credit goes to DanTheMan007 for writing this. If you are going to put a like on something, put it on his post and not mine

No point in arguing with this @Capitalist guy cause no one is gonna accept that as a healthy way of the building of a "country" essentially.

This... This is absolutely outstanding. Great work on this post.

To answer a few of the questions here, there is a large variety of standard food items you'll find in cafes and restaurants, as well as player-made food. Different sorts of food and drink will "fill" you up more than others and faster. Some may even have side-effects. Generally, good player-created food will be the most efficient for consumption. You'll also be able to create your own bars, cafes and restaurants. I'm not sure how lucrative they'll be to own, but a player food-place could turn into a good social point. There will be three places in the Town square module that you can sample food and alcohol: there's a bar/lounge in the hotel, a cafe as well as the cinema. As for the questions concerning a hunger mechanic, there is such a system although you can't die from starvation. There will be some penalties, though. Food consumption won't be forced upon you enough to be an annoyance, but you'll want to grab a bite here and there.

I hope they implement this into the game

If time is 45 minutes max: Jailbreaks would almost never be possible with such a short amount of time. It often takes 30+ minutes just to prepare a strategy, gear up, and gather the appropriate intel assuming there are no delays and you're not rushing into things (this is from experience on ArmA 3 Life). This gives us very little time to enjoy the full prison experience, some people want to take it all in not blow through it all and chow down faster than a speeding bullet.. Enjoy your experience. If time is above 45 minutes (3 hour max jail sentence): This makes not getting caught much more thrilling in my opinion, sure a lot of people are like "but then if I do a crime I have to sit in jail and do nothing for hours!" but you do realize that's only if you get caught? Also I imagine you have to do a hell of a lot of crimes to receive a maximum jail sentence. I, personally someone who's more interested in hardcore role-play rather than an arcady GTA experience would prefer a longer jail sentence just for the sake of role-play. I want to be part of the whole role-playing experience, I don't want to run around the streets and just commit constant crime after crime not carring about that 45 minute maximum jail sentence. If you're a real criminal and know what you're doing, you shouldn't get caught. Honestly.. I imagine the official servers want something for everyone so I imagine there will be versions of official servers that are more arcady while there are versions that are much more hardcore with longer jail sentences and such; Regardless of that, I imagine there will be plenty more private servers and something for everyone. It won't all be the same, so if you want that chance at a longer jail sentence then trust me there will be servers out there for you just with that in mind focusing on the hardcore aspects of role-play.

I would like to see a replica of either one of these bikes added into the game. Honda CBR 600rr Yamaha R1

Hello citizens! I'm Motown, and I'm Identity's Community Manager, the person in charge of delivering all of your important ideas and messages to Identity's development team! What's special about my role here is that I'm not just your eyes and ears, I'm also one-half of the founding team for Identity! John Vanderzwet and I set out together to make Identity a reality, and have been involved in every aspect of Identity's development since the very start. That means, through me (and our volunteer moderator staff), you have direct access to the very top of our family tree, and we can influence the design and development of Identity together! You won't get that sort of treatment from many industry CM's! So, If you have ideas that you feel will expand and define Identity for years to come, let me know, and I will make sure it hits the right ears. What a relief it has been to know that so many people have been waiting for a game like Identity for so long. I couldn't be happier to have the opportunity to be the liaison that will connect you with the world of Identity and the wonderful people who make it what it is! We strongly feel that we have a winning formula, and the deepest conviction that we may revolutionize the MMORPG genre with your support! We're going to do a lot of great things together, so it's only fair that you know a little bit about me first! My name is Sean, I'm 27 years old. My best friend is my boss and co-worker, John Vanderzet. I grew up all over the United States where I've developed the hyperactive, happy, and unbiased personality you will come to know me for! I call Ontario, Canada my temporary home while I work on Identity as your Community Manager, interim Art Director and 3D prop artist. I went to college for Video Game Design & Production, but my true passion is interacting with people! I've been a forum moderator for many large and well-known online gaming communities, including a default subreddit of 8 million subscribers on Reddit.com, a volunteer guide of the Followers of Asura in "Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures", an event organizer in "Richard Garriott's Tabula Rasa" (Big RG fan btw!), the only English forum moderator of a German FPS called "Parabellum" (Google Translate ftw!), and forum moderator for "Planetside 1", "GamersFirst", "Mortal Online", and a few others I can't even remember, for varying lengths of time! Yep, I get around! But now it's time I get to know a little bit about you too. Create a new topic in this forum, and introduce yourself! We want to know exactly what personalities come out of the the deep, dark, depths of the internet to share our passion for Identity! But be nice!
