I stumbled across the development of this game a short while ago and my excitement keeps growing, think I've watched the few videos there are on the game a dozen times and read over the FAQ a dozen times. Anyone else? I feel sorry for any of you backers who have known and patiently waited for years for this game.

An Official body of the sport of football (soccer), the F.A will be responsible for organising events that are entirely football related. The Football Association will host a weekly winner-takes-all, three-a-side football tournament that will be Live-streamed and officiated by referees/organisers. Anyone can participate by simply registering their team before the event. Participants and viewers alike can expect an organised and thorough knock-out styled trophy runout, where the winners will be commended in historical accounts, as both team represented and individual players representing their team. ====================================== It's really impossible for me to give anything legit here but I hope you like the taster and can add to the affiliation - discuss.

Hi! Glad I could become a part of the community. I look forward most, probably is the interaction between players and a hopefully tight knit community for everyone to enjoy. I also look forward to the ever expanding occupations that are available to the community. I, myself, was interested in some sort of law career in the game. My goals, overall, are just to become close to a group of players so that we can enjoy the game to the fullest. I'd also find it exciting to become prestigious in a certain field or role, and become well known in that. I can't wait to get started in Identity!

I Joey Gallo pledge my loyalty to the Luprano Family.

First of all Civilian. And then im lookin forward to do my own business.

Identity Forum Guidelines Last Edit: July 9th, 2018 Participation in the Official Identity forums constitutes agreement to the following guidelines, which apply to posts, profile information, avatars, signatures, private messaging, and any other content on this site and participation in general. The live nature of discussions in this community makes it difficult for staff to catch every violation of these rules. If you believe that someone has violated our User Guidelines, please send a private message to a member of our volunteer moderation team or staff with a link to the content and a brief description of what you believe is wrong. Please do not respond to a violation personally, as you may aggravate the situation and possibly violate our guidelines yourself. Any content that violates our User Guidelines will be removed. Interpretation of our guidelines is at the discretion of the staff. Please do 1. Report violations of the forum rules. Moderators will quickly review reports and make decisions based on the information you provide. 2. Respect others. Showing respect will encourage others to participate in discussion. 3. Like posts, that you feel contribute useful information to a discussion. 4. Read the rules, so that you do not accidentally receive an infraction or ban. 5. Be constructive. Help others by answering questions, and offer feedback to their ideas. 6. Read before posting. Fully Comprehend the topic of discussion and determine what has already been discussed. 7. Use proper grammar and spelling. Read your post before submitting. Spelling mistakes may attract attention away from the discussion. 8. Search for content related to your questions. There’s a good chance that there may already be an answer to what you are looking for! Please don’t 1. Troll. Trolling does not contribute to meaningful discussion. 2. Spam. Spamming clutters the forum and makes it difficult to find original content. 3. Flame, or attack others. Insults do not contribute to discussion, and will be removed. 4. Repost Deleted Content. Content that was deleted was removed for a reason, even if the reason is unclear. 5. Demonstrate or perpetuate toxic behavior. A user is considered toxic if they repeatedly make defamatory, threatening, insulting, or otherwise hateful remarks toward other users or staff. Please keep language civil when expressing your opinions. 6. Advertise websites or services unrelated to Identity. We do not sell advertising space on the Identity forums. 7. Cross Post. Cross-posting makes it difficult for users using the search function to find relevant information, and may be considered spam. 8. Ask for Likes. Likes are given to those for contributing useful information in a discussion. 9. Abuse reports. Reporting content with blank or inaccurate report descriptions will hinder a moderator's capacity to help. Please report content that is in violation of the rules, and not simply because you personally dislike another user. 10. Engage rule violators. You may accidentally violate these rules yourself by responding to others that you feel aren’t following these guidelines. 11. Make low-effort posts. Contribute useful information to the discussion, and avoid going off-topic. 12. Discuss Politics/Religion. These subjects are sensitive and may offend others. (There is a small place for fantasy politics within Identity's ecosystem. The Governor position will be able to tweak small settings within the game world, and must compete against others for power. The political systems within Identity are simplified and do not accurately reflect the processes involved with political discourse in the real world. Players may implicitly take inspiration from existing candidates or parties, but must not show any connections to real world politics through the use of logos/symbols, names (of existing leaders, existing parties, or of those within recent history), or slogans. By affiliating your party with a real world political faction, you are bringing such politics into discussion and grabbing the attention of those who recognize it. Real world politics typically invoke a strong emotional response in some viewers and can lead to vehement conflicts extremely quickly.) 13. Create multiple accounts. Only one account per person is authorized, so forum users can be easily identified. Avoiding a ban may result in further permanent action. 14. Operate a shared account. Sharing an account with another user will make conversation difficult should any of the account operators share a difference in opinion. Conflicting statements will impede our ability to help assist any single user on a shared account. Due to this, we request that each account is operated by a single, separate user. 15. Create forum posts that mention specific users in the title. Creating a new topic with the title specifically mentioning another user isn’t conducive to group discussion, especially if the targeted user isn’t comfortable responding in an open format. (For example, don’t make posts like “@usernamehere, why is x and not y?”) If you’re asking a question directly to another user, please do so using the inbox function on the forums. 16. Post Personal Information, or post links containing personal information. Sharing information about others can be harmful to their real-life. 17. Use forum features in unintended ways. Asking for likes, or making a game that incorporates the like/follow buttons artificially inflates user forum stats, making it difficult for other users to determine which content or user is contributing popular content to the site. 18. Discuss Moderator or Administrator actions Publicly. There are often reasons why a decision is made by a moderator or administrator that may be unclear to outside-parties, and off-topic discussion about an admin or moderator decision may be disruptive to a conversation. We politely ask that you trust and respect decisions made by staff. If you have an issue with a specific staff member, please report the matter to a Community Manager. 19. Impersonate Asylum Entertainment Staff or Moderators. When users seek assistance from moderators or Asylum staff, they shouldn't need to worry about encountering the possibility of dealing with an impostor. Always heed the official titles for staff roles on both the forums and discord to help avoid confusion. 20. Intentionally Spread False Information. Spreading rumors you know are falsified and portraying them as fact will only complicate Identity's development and serves to derail the actual constructive criticism offered by other users. Even accidentally giving out false information can be dangerous, so please ask a staff member or reference official statements (Dev Blogs for example). 21. Post or link to illegal, dangerous, offensive or NSFW content. Do not engage in activities that include (but are not limited to) the sharing of sexually explicit content, piracy, malicious code execution (viruses, malware, spyware etc.), gore. Please keep posts pertaining to the M-rated content in Identity reasonable. 22. Create or operate an account with the intention of solely boosting or supporting another user's reputation, poll votes, or opinions. We ask that all users contribute to the forums in ways that don't simply perpetuate someone else's particular viewpoint or account statistics. ***Moderators and staff have the final say on all matters. If you would like to report moderator abuse, contact a Community Manager directly. Creating public threads or posts that question or reference administrative decisions or potential administrative decisions is not permitted.*** ***Freedom of speech rights do not extend to privately owned websites, such as this one. These guidelines detail the types of behavior and activities that are allowed here.*** ***We reserve the right to deactivate any account and to edit or remove any content without warning. These guidelines are subject to change at any time without notice.*** ***If you have a question or suggestion about our User Guidelines, please do not hesitate to contact a moderator or admin and we will be glad to help in any way that we can.*** 3bdullah alzmeeeleee 6ree8 jbbbh #7mod mf95

Hey 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.

First off, no. I do not intend on running for office. I am providing a party for people who do intend on running for office, who want something unique. Something that stands out, that one grape in a bunch of blackberries. The Peoples Party (TPP) isn't your standard party. Our policies differ from most as you, the people arent our main priority. Do we want you to be happy? Yes, but we would rather ensure everyone is educated and employed before that. You may be wondering why I would say this, and the truth is that I actually care about the success of this island. I'm not gonna sit back and blow smoke up your backsides to get votes, I strive to make my candidates succeed through the truth, not a pretty face. Taxes For some odd reason every party wants to reduce taxes. I am one of the only people to actually want the opposite; to increase them. Now, I know what your thinking. Why would anyone want less money? Well, I intend on using your money to make your life easier. I will take a % of your income which varies depending on your salary. Now yes, it will be alot but hear me out. This % will cover many thing such as free public transport for employed individuals, free legal consultation and most importantly a free healthcare system. If you invest alot into small companies and/or charity you are eligible to file for a tax return at the end of a year, giving you back some momey for your comtribution to society. This tax will also cover any emergency service operative 3 days of food every week. Below is the taxes for salaries. $9,999 > = 7.5% Tax $10,000 - $19,999 = 25% Tax (Potential of 10% tax return) $20,000 - $39,999 = 35% Tax (Potential 20% tax returns) $40,000 - $99,999 = 45% Tax (Potential 35% tax returns) $100,000 < = 50% Tax (Potential 45% tax returns) On top of this, if you own a business then no matter how much you are making, there is a fixed 30% tax rate on your profits (after employee payroll). On any products there is a 7.5% sales tax in VAT. I also plan on removing sales tax during the month of December, and a 50% tax reduction on anyone earning less than $20,000 during the same month. Goals One of our main goals is to introduce committees that anyone in the community can volunteer for. This gives the power to the people, allowing them to voice their opinions and put forward their own ideas to be implemented. We will also have committees dedicated to communicating with prisoners and helping them to prevent themselves from reoffending. I do also want to put in place a programme in which convicts and people who cannot get employment after 2 real weeks can do community service and delivery jobs for me and earn enough to keep them alive. As far as law enforcement goes, I plan to use those taxes to reduce crime rates significantly, giving police and other emergency services a larger yet more controlled budget. Regular patrols will occur, and you should never expect a precinct to have a slow work day. I am open to more ideas but until the game comes out this is all I've got.

Hey, I'm new to this game. When I first heard of it I thought, I have to get it. Well I will buy it tomorrow! It is probably the best Idea developers ever had. I love the concept!

Hello ladies and gentleman, my name is Acetime and I from Hamburg,Germany.I am 16 years old and found this game a week a go. I hope we will get a very nice game experience witch will be unforgettable. _____________________________ Roleplay: Hello, my name is Camron Johnson I was born in 1989 in Brooklyn,NY. I got a dark childhood,my dad was drug addicted and my mum died by the birth.I got 2 sisters Ashley (29) and Caroline (32) so I am the youngest one in the family. Since I joined the school the teacher noticed that I a very good football player,so I decided to be a football player in the future. My dream to be a football player blowed up because some guys broke my leg on 5 different places the injury was to big to get out the hospital in two months. My dad every time said to me before he got drug addicted:,,Son please go a legal way, don´t let the friends decide your life!´´ And I still doing this today,I go my own way dear readers.Furthermore there was my best friend Charly witch died by a car accident,he was like a brother for me,we did so much things together and now where he is? Since that things happened I decided to move away from New York,I find a post in Casebook(<--I know^^) witch was about a trip on a Island. I booked three tickets and we gone! Now we live in peace and no one want to hurt us we are so proud of our family specific of our parents. A very big thanks to the government you gave us a new chance to set up a new life. greetings family Johnson Out of roleplay greetings from Germany P.S could you guys rate my English?^^

loving this whole game so far and its not even out yet. im in love with the concept ! this is the the type of game that any older MMORPG player dreamed of playing. cant wait to meet everyone online and see how this all turns out.

Hi, my name is Lukas aka. sGtDeath. I'm a 17-year-old student. I will graduate in Summer next year. After that, I will join the German Army.I´ve played a lot of Arma 3 Altis Life most of the time on a serious Roleplay but I also used to play on a semi-serious one. Before that, I´m was playing a lot of DarkRP (Roleplay Mod for Garry´s Mod). I really excited for the game. It fulfills all my wants of a Roleplay game that I always thought of! I´m happy that I found this game and hope that we will have a lot of fun! Greeting sGtDeath

Love the sound of that.

Social media is all around us, its part of our daily routine. So it would be great to have social media in the game. Not just facebook style, could have instagram, youtube etc. Maybe even a facetime/ skype style of thing in game? ...... I was even thinking about doing gameplays of Identity but that's kinda mainstream... So we could have a camera, ingame to record what we are doing. You could walk with it and do face cam. Everything recorded would go onto your computer to prevet flooding the server's space. So vlogging could be a thing. And maybe people posting daily content of the server on youtube could maybe make it a ingame job?

Hey everyone, Write down your favorite quote(s) for everyone to see and feel inspired (or lack thereof), make sure to mention who said the quote! I'll go first "I am not afraid of an army of lions led by a sheep, but I am afraid of any army of sheep led by a lion." - Alexander the Great Happy quoting!

I thought as it's been a long time since the devs put up the vote on twitter, and seeing as there is a lot more exposure and more interest with people on this forum now that I would do this poll to see whether some peoples fear that there would be more criminals than cops or civilians be a case. So guys what do you want to be? Also if you can comment if you want to try all of them but this is what do you want to be mainly the majority of the time. Civilian includes being a businessman and such. Cop - Cop obviously. Criminal - Gang and general crime stuff. Government - This is any other government career like FF, Medic and so on. PS: I wanna try all of them out in the long run but my main thing will be running a transport company. I will start using my sports car as my Taxi! @HairyGrenade Wanna pin this?

I'll do anything that makes me rich, good or bad. All about the money

Willkommen und Grüße aus Deutschland nach Österreich Viel Spaß hier

wird nicht schwer. wir wissen ja dass wir deutsche sind. alle anderen schreiben auf englisch ohne zu wissen ob der andere nicht aus australien oder afrika kommt.

The reason why the progress has been slow/ the modules were delayed by a year because The game was a concept at kickstarter and so they had to code the core mechanics of the game, they under estimated the time needed to do those core features/ mechanics and so they delayed it. Secondly yes it is a very small team but a Team with passion of making Identity because it is their Dream game too. They are back on track and so the first module will be Q1 which I estimate Mid - End March, yeah this is a estimate as long as the progress continues as it is going I heard. Well they didn't give a estimate but by the latest it should be here is April. The first module is the main and core features mechanics and that said means that the S.W.A.T. module will be not as long in development as the Town Square, and then the final Module is the racing module. I think that the 2nd module will be released at the latest Late Q3 but I estimate it to be Q3 around End July if the progress goes well with no delays. The racing module will hopefully be by October. which is Q4 and then beta will be hopefully late 2017/ Early 2018. (Everything above is my opinion) But overall I think we may not see the Beta in 2017 but the 3 module definitely should be done if no delays. (This is no doubt my opinion but also is what the devs are aiming for but with beta by end 2017.)

interior decorating & Clothes designers = chicks will surely come.

Hahaha I worry about this as well, so yeah in case if you haven't noticed, I'm a female

Im a member since November, only seen one development update since then, just keep in mind, its a very small team that works on the game in their free time, maybe with a little luck the Town square module launches for the Beta participants this year.

Not on official servers, corruption is not allowed and also the police don't choose the sentence times, this will be done automatically I guess to stop corruption or people giving a player more than he should have for personal reasons. You can be broken out but I don't believe I heard anything about it being done alone while in jail. If you want to break out someone then it will take planning to do and not like a quick run up and grab them run out sort of thing. It will be a lot harder.

Thank you very much, I'll give it a shot. Definitely. Take screenshots, screen record and live stream like any other game, But maybe that could be an in-game job. I can certainly see people who don't have software or expertise to record, stream or produce their game content paying someone in-game to do it for them... sort of like paying for a wedding photographer. For instance, say me and me footy team are just messing around having a kick-about with a (cant believe im gonna say this_) socca ball - and we get a little, miniature F.A Cup exhibition going on and want to share the story of glory with the world of Identity - then I would certainly pay a stake to get somebody running around capturing it all for the audience, and perhaps sharing some good commentary feed too./ It's a delightful idea.

wir müssen dass forum deutschifizieren

@Paratus creepy stuff dude

I welcome you to the family Joey.

Im gonna be a cop, i just wanna arrest bad guys and take advantage to be corrupt if the admins didnt notice me

@Gwiilo i think we all can wait a bit longer for a better result of game ^^ @Phiedrus there is not much to know about me, i want to be an artist in Identity ´coz i like that you can paint something and hang it on the wall :3 @JamesLuck01 my goal is to get a bit famous in the game as an artist or something like that, yeah i know it will be hard but i never give up ^.^ The things i look forward to are the great community and all the stuff you can do. If you have questions to my person, dont be afraid to ask <3

That is a fair point. I agree. Maybe meth means you don't have an aim-punch when you get hit (or gives you an aim boost now that I think about it, as amphetamines generally increase your reaction time and make you stay awake longer). What you said makes a lot more sense though.

I think it would be a waste of developers time having a system where your game is recorded by them, where you can just download or buy a stand alone screen recorder.

If you can run ARK, ARMA 3 or GTA V you will be fine.

I would consider the growth of Zeus to be interesting over the past few days, and if anyone is considering to apply for a position within Zeus; then please private message me that application as we will not be updating our website from now on - until the game is complete. - Gabriel

Instead of using "Game Capture" for games use "Window Capture" and run them in Windowed mode. Else, just use Game Capture, which seems a bit buggy for me. Good luck!

I ran that same Q6600 for years. And your video card is DDR5 2 Gigs. Which is a fairly good card to run most games on Medium and newer high end games on Low/Medium. I have upgraded since then to an AMD A10-5800K 3.8Ghz, with Asus STRIX RX-460-O4G-GAMING video card, from my previous Sapphire R7-250 that came with this AMD Cpu. I'm not sure what video card you could upgrade to without bottleneck on your CPU. Your vid card looks alright to me though. I'll will guess and say that it will play this game on Medium to Low. Which with the beautiful texturing I saw in the preview video I'm sure you will still be impressed at the graphics. You may have to sacrifice quality to get your frames up if you enjoy fast frames.

I picked Government, of course would need to wait til more info is released. Hopefully plan on running for office :).

Mainly civilian. But the game offers some possibilities too interesting to just ignore them. For the most part I prefer an easy life, but how not to try how's life in prison for a while? How would I do as a homeless (despite I plan having a studio apartment)? etc.

A simple cafe owner

I got a whole heap of family in North Carolina and South Carolina. I love the look and sound of everything down there and would love to have one of my characters be from there. Because people there are really nice.

Hi @Ragnariu Welcome to the Identity forums. Tell us about yourself and what you'll be doing in Identity In my opinion we won't see an actual go-live until 2018. The good thing though, is that we'll be given the first three modules along 2017 before going beta, starting with the social Town Square during first quarter 2017.

I thought it would be a cool idea to add skateboards in the game, if they're not already being added, because it could be a cheap way of transportation, add more jobs for people to have, and it can be customizable. I don't know if it will ever be added, just thought it would be neat if it were added.

What about self defense that results in killing the other? How will that be settled? The in game court system?

@Kickapoo LMAO that is hilarious. Well just my input im excited for the first module i just wanna be able to walk around and see the potential the game has and as long as the first part comes out ill have more confidence they are actually going to finish the game.

Grüße aus dem Saarland!

willkommen, kamerad!

Hello everyone, I am really, sincerely exited for this game. Basically it is exactly what I have always dreamt of in the MMORPG-Genre. I´ve been part of several RPG since I discovered it as a hobby of mine. There have been text-based forum-RPs, Chat-RPs (via IRC), the ARMA-Life ones and a couple more. While Altis Life oder Sarani Life came somewhat close to what I was looking for, it´s never been quite the serious, immersive style of roleplay that I was looking for. I´d probably never consider myself as a hardcore-roleplayer but I guess that term is coming quite close to fitting perfectly. Almost.. To see a standalone MMORPG like that, programmed by a dedicated crew and supported by a just as dedicated community is giving me high hopes for this game and will support it wherever I can. If you care about some personal information: I´m from Germany, male and will be turning 21 this month. At the moment I am employed by a large company in my area and I´m in training to become what boils down to be a secretary in the end. As it was kind of a last straw, I am trying my best to get out of this profession though. When it comes to hobbies I am really into writing, I play airsoft every now and then and gaming is quite a big one as well. If you got any questions of any kind I would be more than happy to answer them! Last but not least a special thanks to the Asylum-Crew for dedicating themselfes to such a wonderful project! And to all the other citizens of the community: I hope to see you all on the streets of this beautiful Island when the time comes! - Prudii
