    There will be quite a few servers for Town Square, located all around the world. Town Square servers have a player limit, but we'll have a whole lot of them active for the first days of the release and we'll add/remove them as we see demand requires. We'll try to make sure that if a queue does happen, it won't be a long wait to get in.

    RP STORY OF VITO PALLAZZOLO Born Vittorio Pallazzolo in Bari, southern Italy, a few streets away from Carmelo Barbero and Frank Luprano's relatives. He was son of a construction manager with long work days and poor payment. Vito's father, Alfonso Palazzolo, was also an amateur boxer who was a strong head of the family. Vito loved boxing as well, just like his father and was not afraid of blood. Slowly, step after step, his mother, Luciana Palazzolo (name meaning: light) strove to achieve her life goals; becoming a mathematic-teacher (she loved the handling of numbers and people) and having self-employment, she was always devoting her energy and time to new areas of income: no matter if it was real estate, precious metals, precious stones, new business investments and taking advantage of untapped business niches (bakery in a place, where people need one...). Vito Palazzolo had a great mix between the endeavor of logical thinking,independent education and hard work. His father died early at a work accident. This layed a huge amount of responsibility on Vito. He was forced to become an adult and his mother was overwhelmed with this situation. She gave Vito a huge amount of money – just in hope he wouldn't see her falling deeper and deeper :she threw her money away, drunk during the daytime and losing her discipline to keep her business running. One day she bought wine in a gas station, was drunk, happy, laughing, and walked out into the street, not watching the traffic into a car, which put her body in the oncoming traffic and she was hit by a truck. Vito got his master in chemistry at the age of 22. It was a great balancing act between the research of new areas (drugs), improving the process of known drugs and the legal work in the laboratory as a researcher (not well paid, but a safe place). Vito quickly recognized that the changing of the world begins with him: He had to see: In problems the freedom of decision. In decisions - their consequences and possible outcomes. In errors - learning and trying again with a better start - which in turn lead to success. He will always be as modest as his mother, no one will ever know how much power and money is working in the background. The security over money stands: Dead people are not able to spend their million of dollars. You should work as hard as possible without putting yourself in danger, think in larger time intervals, and let the money work for you. Discipline daily to work on future goals was vital for Vito. The way you present yourself, your appearance, gestures, facial expression - is your self-confidence. Vito acknowledged three key questions in his day to day business; What is time-consuming? What is profit? What is dangerous? Protecting the family is the most important: therefore he had no problems to sell his drugs in foreign countries. He was not a gun nut, they were only a means for the purpose; protection and solving “problems”. He always solves his problems personally, if necessary, with his hands. He was quick to realize that he could not achieve everything on his own, so he joined the Luprano family through connections in Bari, and eventually came over to the island, after proving his loyalty during various tasks. With the first orders he realized quickly that violence did not irritate him, he could shoot people without hesitation but the thrill of making money with his mind is what gave him his adrenaline rush.Vito wanted to work for the office of the consigliere, which seemed to him in an unachievable distance, but was his goal. Due to his negotiating skills, the nickname "Snake" was awarded to him. He can judge people well and therefore also manipulate well psychologically. He was a great actor, even to people to whom he desires death; he could surrender and be friendly and, if necessary, give the death penalty - which made him an unpredictable weapon. His enemies can not look into him, but their are feeling of him has to be fully illuminated. He was struggling to move to the next step as early as possible, he had a healthy balance between philosophy and action. Now his attitude and skills in life keep all doors open for him.

    @QuasarVX True- There is no game. YET and ya know why? COZ THEY ARE STILL MAKING IT! Its not like " See its finnished. Take the crap thing where you cant do anything except looking at some poor textures" its more like "Wait until we say its finnished, then you can play a game better then everything you had to this point with good textures and even better gameplay." If u dont like to wait dont do it.

(b) Every individual has freedom to start business of his own choice. (c) All economic activities are guided by the motive of profit. (d) Individuals are the owners and acquire property and pass it on to next heir after death. (e) Government has little role to play in the functioning of the economy. Prices of goods and services are determined by the market forces of demand and supply. Important Business Information Tax on businesses is 10% on company profit. After employees have been paid, inventory bought, etc. Depending on what the company reports as profit a business could nearly have no tax! The Tale of Lucious Times Lucious grew to be homeless on the streets of Los Angeles. In a city of crime Lucious had to be on the lookout at every turn. In Lucious' young life he grew to be very aware of the crime filled city and knew he had to do something to ensure his safety. At 15, Lucious started an organization with a few neighborhood boys called "The Peacekeepers". These boys were brutal. They cleaned the streets of crime in the most direct ways possible. Showing up to criminal hideouts and wasting away every member present, making fake visits to prisons and jails to poison and eliminate those criminals on the inside, making appointments with the LAPD to let THEM know how things would be done. The Peacekeepers were vigilantes at the finest. The city soon had a crime rate so low new schools were being built and more people migrated to the lovely city of Los Angeles. Through all the harsh deeds The Peacekeepers had done Lucious never was present for the actual action. He was the mastermind, the planner, the brain of the whole operation. Sitting behind a desk as leader of The Peacekeepers. Oh how things looked great! Lucious had made something out of nothing and became a city icon and hero as he grew older. Though soon, things made a turn for the worst. Lucious' closest partner, his beautiful fiance was capture by a man known by the name Gustavo Fring. A now well-known high profile methamphetamine drug lord. He did so because by cleaning up the city Lucious made distribution for Mr. Fring come to a complete stop in the area. Lucious grew furious, so furious he began to walk into a whole new light. The Peacekeepers became a weapon at Lucious' disposal. He thought long and hard and then finally had a plan. After finding where Fring was located Lucious and his team of over 200 men approached the location, guns loaded and ready for anything. However, Fring was already aware of Lucious' presence and decided to retaliate. Fring killed Lucious' fiance, then sent out total war upon Lucious and his men. In the end only two men were left standing; Fring and Lucious. After few words, Lucious caught leverage and killed Fring. Though Lucious was severely injured by gunshot. He called the LAPD. With quickness, Lucious was saved and had chance to speak with the LAPD Chief of Police. He thanked Lucious for his doings and after a long conversation of tears the chief left. Lucious began to realize how much he'd loss. All his men, his fiance, his hold on the city from crime all gone! Three weeks later Lucious walked out of the hospital, grab all $789,211 he'd raised with his people, and began to leave town for a new home. A place called Turtle Beach on Identity Island. However, when he got to the town line he found something waiting for him. Over half the city was standing their with gold-colored gold-scented candles. Some of them stood to give thanks, but many stood ready to follow him wherever he went. A woman by the name of Dorris Jean approached Lucious and told him this: "We give these candles to represent who you are to the city. Forever will you be the gold we all love, the gold we all know has provided, the gold we all know will pay the price. For to us you are a leader and friend. For you have become like royalty in this city. And with you royalty we be your royal family." Lucious was proud. All negative feelings previous washed away. Lucious now felt the obligation to continue to lead. For he knew he was wise and could give great leadership. This time he wouldn't limit himself to the leadership of a groups of boys who run a city, no. That was below him now. Now he needed to lead in higher heights where he could have greater impact and influence. A position of power such as Governor would do the trick! So he then decided to venture into the political field of leadership once he arrived in his new home. A few hours later after a celebratory evening Lucious and the now called Royal Family left. 12 days later they arrived in Turtle Beach on the Identity island and the rest is soon to be foretold...

    As you can see, the forum is constantly polluted with fraudulent topic creations, looking for better referencing on the web through forums, and trying to sell us their "products". Moderators do everything possible to delete these messages / topics. For your security, the security of your bank account, and your computer, here are some basic tips about these spam: - NEVER go over the links proposed in these topics. - Do not click on the topics in question. (Except for reporting the post) - Do not respond to the authors of these messages. (Most often, these are robots) The best attitude to have is to report them for helping moderators to quickly find and delete them. These are very basic but essential tips because these people are looking to attract the most people, and clicks. Moreover, nothing says that their sites do not contain viruses or other malicious things. (I am NOT a moderator, so if they have any clarifications or modifications to make, it is with pleasure).

    Well, The hole VOIP thing is a realy good idea on it own. Maybe it will work on Private servers, so you can decide as server owner if you want that active. And my English isnt perfect neither, so dont care about making a mistake

    Hello everyone, I apologize for writing in English ... Well, my idea would be that the Voip of the game was constant, there was no option to press to speak, because being a role play RP is necessary for players not to do Metagaming (use another form of communication to take advantage Of situations within the game such as warning you that you are being robbed so your friends will come to help you). I think, that being a RP is necessary an immersion of the players and of course a way to try to stop those who are only for PVP for example, what spoils the RP of the others and I see in this question of VOIP one of the ways to try to stop , At least Metagaming. Of course many who play this game thought that it is a pvp game will end up seeing that in reality it is an RP, and developed to be a RP which helps a lot already in eliminating PVP players as soon as it launches. However, there are always RP players who like to perform Metagaming and end up spoiling the game of others. Good just a suggestion .....

    Yes I was thinking about it, I would have to have voice detection on VOIP. And the player could turn off the mic and enable only when speaking, but many do not have headsets with buttons to turn the audio off and on. It would really be a problem in the case of noises coming from the players. Thanks for comment. I apologized because my writing in English is not very good.

    Its a good point to have VOIP to stop or at least make it harder to do metagaming. But on the other hand its a problem, because not everyone who will play this game will have a quiet background and so there will be too much Noise, and that will be annoying for others. Still a very good Point! ( BTW you dont have to apologize for writing in english )

    @Warzorwesumi If you cant run GTA or Arma 3 you can't run Identity. The full Map size will be about 270 square kilometers and the Town Square module map size will be the size of a town square, meaning it will literally be a Town Square. I cant answer the specs questions but i hope this helps.

We will delete them as soon as possible Greetings -Radack

    I would find it enjoyable having the option to do those jobs either way. Like for example, if someone wants to stamp envelopes all day long, why not let them? The AI / NPC can be paused for the duration someone wants to do it. And reactivate the moment the player gets tired of it. It would more likely be a small job rather than your career choice, in that case. Seeing I understand those are two separate ways of making money. A full fledged career and/or minor jobs you can do in a small amount of time. I mostly curious as how payouts will be handled. Weekly/monthly base? And how about the small jobs? So many questions we all have.

    The Mods are normaly pretty fast in clearing the forum from spam, but they cant be online 24/7 . I already made an Thread a time ago where i mentioned a few ways to make it harder for the spambots but i dont think that the right person read it. Only thing we can do is report all spam we see like @Genesai already said.

    The voice in Identity currently does work in all the ways you've described, with the exception of character breathing. It's difficult to hear someone breathing near you unless they're very winded in real life. Walls and such will block sound, and even the material of the wall or object affects the impact on sound degradation.

    There is no sex in the game lmfao The only drug the governor can decide to make legal or not is marijuana AFAIK. Everything else which includes crack and meth are illegal by game design. How do you even determine who is a pedophile or not if there's no way for pedophiles to express their urges (there's no sex in the game). Ayy this is a real question

    I have no reason to vote for you if you have the capability to completely change your platform on a weekly basis. This means nothing more than that you don't hold any strong positions and that you're easily convinced via popular opinion. You have to understand that popular opinion isn't always the right one! Honestly, I don't see you having the characteristics of somebody we need in a position of political power. I've seen it first hand where you cower behind "negotiation" the moment you begin to lose an argument, rather than actually showing some confidence in your beliefs. Even though I personally agree with the positions in your changed campaign more than before, I would have honestly considered you more as a viable candidate if you at least just remained consistent. You kept absolutely nothing from your beginning campaign, and completely abandoned your grassroots supporters. To me, this shows extreme weakness and spinelessness in your ability to hold your own.
