2 pointsI have put together a small thread regarding some of the potential parties and individuals who have made their cases. I thought it would be enjoyable. Underneath is a small clarification on each party/individual listed. The graph goes as follows: Thomas Hetch: Thomas Hetch supports a controlled environment for guns, however not a complete shutdown of guns. He also supports regulations on corporations, and death penalty. His healthcare plan consists of packages, which suggests a right sided economical mindset. I would place Thomas Hetch as a strong Progressive, considering his values lies with economical growth, and a sustainable and controlled environment. Mr. Lucious: Lucious supports privatization on most fronts, meaning that his economical values consists of little tax, and freedom for corporations, however his ethical mindset is very liberal, since he supports open borders, and no oil drilling. He also believes in the freedom of the people, and wants limited government control. I would place Lucious is a well-rounded Libertarian. Bobby Cruz: Bobby Cruz's campaign is a very left leaning one, considering his government involvement in healthcare and gun control. He has a strong emphasis on wanting the best thing for the people, and keep the people safe. Bobby Cruz is a solid Social Democratic. FrancePourLaVie: FrancePourLaVie is a very Authoritarian politician, believing in strong government influence when it comes to the freedom of travel and religious beliefs. He believes highly in his police force and places a lot of emphasis on the development of the police force. He believes in the death penalty, and his economical mindset is a flat tax with little to no tax cut. FrancePourLaVie is a strong Nationalist. CCP: The CCP believes in very low taxes, and little to no government influence on the people. They still have a small form of gun control, however they place strong emphasis on their freedom for corporations to roam freely. The CCP is Ultra Capitalists. https://www.conservativecoalitionparty.com/ TPP: Not much is known about this party, other than the Tax plan provided. The taxes are exponential in the growth, and the more you earn, the more you pay. The economics of such a system, means fewer rich people and fewer poor people. This is a very offset mindset, in comparison to the other parties. I place TPP as Authoritarians, without any other knowledge than their tax plan. NSIP: They believe in any form of control that the government can have, their taxes are also above 85%, and they believe that a strong government is what is required for a growing economy and that people are meant to be led. The NSIP is Nationalistic Communists. --- You can disagree with the graph, however I just made on the basis of my first read over the platform of each individual. If something has changed, I would not have seen it, and I apologies. That concludes my overview, and can I just say that I find it amazing how well thought out some of these ideas are! Amazing work.. PS: If I missed someone, don't be afraid to speak up, I will take a look at your platform, and tell you where you are, in comparison to the other parties.

2 pointsDon't mind me, I was just the shy, gothic, quiet girl in school. Not much has changed since then, so. . . Hi. My name is Chimera (pronounced kimmera), I'm 28 I think. My life has been no ray of sunshine, so I've always been addicted to RolePlay and Sim games. Needless to say, I'm beyond elated for Identity. I actually work on video games (not professionally, more of a hobby), so I can't wait to see what I can do with this one. I'm also a content creator on IMVU, so plenty of digital arts experience. You bet your ass I'm going to be a content designer here too. I have tons of ideas and conceptual plans as far as my actual Identity gameplay, but don't even know if it's all possible yet, as the game continues to develop. Soooooo, that's all my tired brain can dredge up to say right now. And since no one will even read this, I guess it's just helping to get my post counter up. Yay.

2 pointsThe Identity Journal. A place where stories don't get muffled in any way, and where facts are the only way to handle news. This is the Identity Journal, and we strive to become the primary source of information when it comes to news in the game. Who was the person that won the previous election? What was the accident that happened down the street? Why is it that I am reading this newspaper?.. Those are the questions that we aim to answer! As a business, we strive to absolute perfection when it comes to news. We do not care about money, politics, crime or other businesses for that matter. All we care about is you, you the reader! That's right, we only aim to deliver the best possible stories that impact the peoples daily lives. Our business model is quite simple. We gather all the information we can from everywhere we can, either through our personal investigators, police force, or our underground moles around the criminal world. All we want is for you to get the best possible news that we can provide you with. What about your personal goals? That is the question, any normal person would ask me. It's quite simple to be fair. I have no interest in power or money in the game. All I want is for The Identity Journal to become the number 1. source of news in the game. Nothing more, nothing less. Behind the mask of "Aengul" I am a young man in the 20th. working full time as a digital designer and photographer, and I've read communications and digital media in my studying years. I've previously made articles in the local newspaper, however nothing to brag about. I ask you! Do you want to become a helper with this endeavor? We need people like you, the player, browsing through the forums and reading threads and posts that peaks your interest. We in The Identity Journal, strive to give you the best news, however we need you to help us with the stories. When we finally launch our platform, we would love to have you on board as a personal source of information. A reward will be given in the form of ingame currency, if we receive a story that we can publish in our weekly newspaper. That is all for now, you'll hear from us in the near future, when we've setup our team, and is ready to deliver stories directly to you! - Aengul

2 pointsLooking at your other posts @PhoenixFury, it seems to be you are just being disrespectful at every possible chance and not really role playing. If this was a RP situation you could responded politely expressing your opinion that this was meant to be in character. Instead you went straight for being a dick which i see no reason for in the first place since neither I nor the creator of this thread has done to provoke you in such manor. Also, there woudnt be any logical rp reason for wanting a lawyer firm to change its name and threatening a persons business.

2 pointsEhh some people like it some don't, we however just like RP and thought this would be fun to do. We do however like to keep this thread mature and appropriate so please if you wish to continue posting on our thread don't use your vulgar and tasteless language. Much appreciated.

1 pointAre the modules Alpha or Beta? The Modules are not any kind of beta but serve more as a Alpha! The Beta will be the closest thing to the full game. When is the Beta going to release? There is no current release point for the Beta except after all 3 modules are released. (Late 2018 is my estimate) When is this Game going to release? There is no point for when it is known to release. (My Estimate will be Early 2019 Release) Town Square Release Schedule? The first Module is due to release 21st March 2018 30th November 2018 as so the developers can be sure to hit the release date. 21st March 2018 Countdown When is there going to be game play footage? The next video is said to be on Gun Mechanics, and I would hope to think it will be shown before the S.W.A.T. Module. Crime & Punishment Gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GT2b4YvylI4 Character Creation + Quick Tour: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kctp79UE5sI Day/Night + Interiors + Interactions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNcJj4C_8ZE Homes/ Apartments: Hotels are free, apartments are infinite, all will get to try an apartment in town square, and there will be limited houses around the map, and that Homes can Store items and are useful as HQ's for gangs. Pledges/ and Prices: Some pledges will stay and prices of them will increase while the rest of the pledges will be removed from the store completely. This will be done when the new Website launches which will likely be Early 2018 and so make use of the time left! New website has already been launched. Higher packages are likely going to be removed during Town Square release or later on. Pledge Car Insurance: There will be life time insurance for the pledge cars/ vehicles. Server Player Capacity: The server player capacity is going to be between 300 - 500 players per server! Server size: Will be 300-500 players. What will the size of the "Town Square" be? The "Town Square" module will be as stated a Town Square and there is no "Figure" on the size of it as of yet! Will this game be released on Consoles? No this game is exclusively for PC however after the full game release the Developers will look into console porting. MoTown's Answer to a post on the forum: Our official answer on the topic of consoles is that we have no current plans to release Identity to console platforms, but have promised to do our research into what it might require after our PC launch. This is not a promise that Identity will be available on console, simply a promise to look into it. At the moment, it would be fair to say that it is outside of our scope and budget. Will this game be for MAC and Linux? Yes it will but I don't know if it will be shortly after launch of the game. Will there be AI (Artificial Intelligence)/ NPC's be roaming the map? No, this game is a player run game, but will have a few NPC's filling up the boring jobs which you and I would not do for hours on end e.g. standing at the tills of a shop, also they will be in the un-ownable shops too and they will be around in back-alleys to represent a (Black Market Dealer and Drug Dealers). Will there be any aircraft in this game? No there will not be aircraft in this game but the developers did mention a glider and possibly in the very far future they could still add them but that's not certain. Will there be Undercover cops? No, The reason why there won't be undercover cops is because the developers want a distinctive difference between cops and civilians/ criminals. How many buttons will be in the game? Probably more, but there will be radial menus for some things that will cut down on buttons. What steering wheels are supported? So far the Thrust-master ones are confirmed. ( if its a popular steering wheel, it'll work) Will this game be VR supported? Yes, the developers are working on it and want to be able to have VR supported because they want to use it too when playing the game. Unfortunately they don't think it will be supported at full game release. Is this game Subscription based? No! You buy the game (passport) and then you can play anytime with no more paying. Is there in-game Purchases? (read next question and the answer) Yes. Is this game Pay to Win? No, You can only buy cosmetic items. (Items which don't give players advantages). What are the system requirements? There is no official knowledge yet as its too early to say, but if you can run games like GTA V, Arma 3 and Ark you should be fine. System requirements are on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/792990/Identity/ How is in-game money going to work? Money will be as close and realistic to the USD. What are the names of the 3 cities? Ash Hill, Roseport and Turtle Beach. Can you break in/ raid someones home? No, police cannot raid your house and also no one can rob your house. In correspondance to police not being able to raid your home, it is that you cannot enter your property if wanted either. What age rating will the game be? This game will be Rated 18+. Can you live with someone? Yes you can but you have to have a bedroom for every person who lives in your house. This even includes if you marry someone! Gangs: There will be a gang system, such as making a guild in MMO's. Gangs will have ranks and even HQ's which can be someone's house where all gang members have access or a shop a gang member owns. In Town square, there will not be a gang system YET, but there will be a friends contact on your phones and you can easily roleplay your gang, to begin with. You can have biker gangs, as there are Bikes (such as the ones in the pledges) and leather jackets. You can put insignias on your clothes to show off your gang. There won't be designated gang categories, such as Biker gang or Mafia, but you can Roleplay your gang to be any type you want. There will, however, be areas of the map designed for specific sub-cultures, such as bars that are Biker themed, such as Biker Club Bars. A player can always buy a bar, make it a Biker Club / Bar and make it the HQ of their Biker Gang, or the same with a Mafia gang, etc... Stress System: The Stress System is the games anti-RDM (random deathmatch = randomly killing people for no reason) system. What happens is everyone has a stress level, and if you stress is low, you take less damage, and high, you take normal damage. When you pull out a gun, you instantly get high stress, and when one is aimed at you or you are near a fight, your stress will slowly rise. This helps you to fight back and try and get the advantage on a gunman by using the stress system to your advantage. In weapon customisation: People always ask if there will be silencers or 8X scopes, and there will not be any long range optics or silencers in Identity. Murder: WILL be auto reported and you will be instantly wanted, other crimes require witnesses and a 911 call. Can you Marry? Yes, you can marry both sex. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Reddit and Exclusive interview questions and answers Below ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Weapon Customisation? Weapon customization is quite detailed. Some weapons have more room for changes than others of course, but things like stocks, grips, sights and even paint/finish can be customized. Weapon actions are one of those things that don't work well in video games, mostly because no matter what you have in the game you're still firing with a mouse, and it will feel counter-intuitive making it over-complicated. For example, if you have a double action pistol and pull the trigger, your mouse click is all the same no matter if the hammer is back or forward so we need to design around the peripherals people are using to play. Weapon jams are something you can encounter. Our weapon physics are incredibly advanced and was one of the first systems completed long ago. We can create magazines of any size which hold physically accurate ammo. Calibre and even type (holopoint, FMJ, etc) have an effect on trajectory. Our programmer on the weapon physics read a lot of papers to get proper formulas, and they function off the same math used by real-world forensics. A bullet fired in Identity will travel almost identically to the same being fired in the real world, even when it comes down to things like stopping power versus penetration. Will there be physics to shoot through walls or boxes? Things that a bullet would usually go though in real world situations. Absolutely. Bullets are influenced by the material they hit. If it's wood, it will pass right through it with very little change to velocity, but a thin sheet of metal may still allow the bullet to pass through, yet reduce velocity enough that it may not kill, or do much damage to its target on the other side when it impacts. 1. What is in game prison like? 2. Is it like real prison with guards, rec time, shiving, and keeping a tight grip on the soap? 3. How does the drug manufacturing and trafficking work? 4. Can I get methylamine? 1. Identity's prison is very much a game within a game. As a prisoner, you can join one of three prison factions and battle for territory, or just hang out in the recreational room and chat and interact with other prisoners while you wait out your time. You'll be able to craft a crude shank and attack others, or attempt a prison escape as a group that the police will be forced to respond too from across the map. There are no player prison guards though. The decision for that was mostly just because we couldn't find a way to keep it engaging and fun. We don't want people to be forced to sit and watch other players. 2. For those in prison however, when they've served their time, they may simply exit the prison through a series of corridors that only they have access too, or if they just have a lengthy prison sentence, they can request a trial which will notify random players across the map to report for jury duty, in which case they will plead their case, and have their fate decided on by a vote whether to be released early, or spend the rest of their time behind bars. 3. & 4. In the outside world, there are a number of drug manufacturing processes, including the production of meth, heroin, cocaine, and marijuana. Each has its own unique crafting process. For instance, in order to cook meth, which is the highest paying and most valuable drug in Identity, it will require the player to purchase a mobile RV, convert it into a meth lab, and then steal all of the ingredients from across the map in certain factory locations. They'll then have to spend time cooking the meth through a series of time-based processes that determine the quality of the product before finally selling it to an NPC drug dealer for a big payout (or you can consume it if you feel like cutting into your hard-earned profits). 1)Price when the game releases 2)Will there be realistic payments for the jobs(on official servers)? I really hate it when you deliver a huge track full of diamonds and get 10k for it just breaks the immersion 3)Will the items take physical space inside the car not only for furniture but with job items as well (Weed, diamonds,etc) and will you be able to put more staff in the car if Let's say you have a 4 man vehicle but its only you and a friend inside so you have 2 sheets left will that mean extra space? 4)Will the things you buy have realistic prices? For example if you buy a Ferrari it will cost you something like 150k? 5)Will there be real life cars in the game or unlicensed cars like in gta v 6)Will there be any A.I cops or enemies? 7)Will i be able to raid other players houses? 8)Will there be a report system so you can instant report someone if he rdm's/vdm's you 9)Will there be an in game recorder so you can have proof for rdm ? (something like plays.tv lets say) 10)will there be a casino? 11)Any micro transactions? (not for cosmetic items) 12)Can you compare the driving to another game so we kinda know how driving will be like ?(i hope not like arma) 13)Will you be able to shoot while inside a vehicle 14)will there be rebel items like armored(extra armor and guns)vehicles, helicopters, jets. 1. Currently, you can pre-order, or pledge early for Identity for as low as $15 (without beta access) or $30 (with beta access) from our website @ identityrpg.com - however, we expect the price of the game to jump up to about $45 when it hits steam, as steam takes a pretty large chunk of income from each sale. 2. Expect Identity's currency to be realistic in value, so your pay will also be realistic. A pair of shoes may cost about $40, and a decent car around $30,000. A lot of games reward players with such high numbers in currency and damage though because there seems to be a psychological attracting to larger numbers, so we can understand why games do it but it won't be that way in Identity. 3. Items will take up physical space inside the trunk of a car. When a player accesses the trunk, there is a 2D grid placement system in which each item takes up a number of squares on the grid depending on its shape and size. The largest items will not fit inside the trunk of a small car, so a big semi-truck with a trailer may be necessary. 4. Oops, I answered this with #2 as well. 5. There won't be real-world cars or brands in Identity. We can't afford the license fees to include real brands in our game, and we're almost certain these companies would not want their brands associated with vehicle damage, or some of the criminal and illegal elements also featured in the game. 6. There won't be AI cops out in the game environment, driving police vehicles, or paroling streets. If there are any, they will simply stand behind a desk at the station recruiting new player officers or providing information. 7. You will not be able to raid another players house, or enter their house without their permission. We want player homes to be your personal space, safe from any outside influence. Players are going to put a lot of effort customizing their homes, and we don't want to jeopardize or disturb the work they put into it. 8. RDM/VDM isn't an enforced rule on official servers, but there will be a tool for reporting these actions on private servers who create rules for these actions. Instead, on Official servers, we have a stress system in place to discourage random attacks or griefing. 9. There won't be an in-game video recording tool, but you can use 3rd party video recording software like OBS, Fraps, or Shadowplay. 10. There will be casinos in Identity, but they are not player owned. 11. Micro-transactions exist for cosmetics, some vehicles, and some apartments, and will be claimable across all servers (hopefully including private servers). We will not sell weapons. 12. Expect driving in Identity to be realistic, much like Grand Theft Auto IV, not V. Players won't be able to survive crazy stunt jumps in Identity, and enough damage could disable your vehicle. Unfortunately however, we cannot easily do a damage model like you might expect to see in BeamNG. Damage has to be networked across the server, and we feel transmitting that much damage data could hurt performance. 13. You won't be able to shoot from inside your vehicle. We want to discourage random acts of violence for the sake of roleplay. 14. There won't be any armoured vehicles in Identity, apart from maybe SWAT trucks. We don't want to give anyone a PVP advantage based on vehicle armor. Aircraft are also not present in Identity, as it is important to us that players do not skip over potential encounters they may have gotten into while driving, and of course because we don't want the world to feel smaller by flying quickly from point A to point B. If anyone thinks of more FAQ questions please comment and I can add them in.

1 point(( Anyone is allowed to join, just join in where ever you want and have fun )) *A young girl emerges from a clean and modern apartment. She is wearing nearly everything in black. Knee high boots, fishnet stockings, denim short shorts and a black hoodie. She has silvery white hair with some red highlighted tips. She is wearing a set of black rayban glasses and has various facial piercings with black lipstick and eyeliner on. She walks out of the apartment block and puts in her ear buds to listen to her music. She puts up her hood on her hoodie and begins to walk to the local shop down the road, putting her hands in her pocket and looking down slightly.* *As she is walking across the road near the shop, she is almost run over by someone not really concentrating and on his phone while driving. She begins to swear at the man in fluent Romanian before continuing to the shop. She enters the shop without saying anything to the shop keeper and places a can of redbull and a strawberry lollipop on the counter* "That'll be $3 please" The shop keeper asks. *Without saying a word, Mia places her change on the counter and grabs her items before leaving the shop, back towards home. She pockets the redbull and opens the lollipop, taking the first crunch out of it*

1 pointWell, I finally decided to pledge with a $30.00 donation and I am psyched to see this module when it comes out!! I've been following this game since it came into concept and last year decided to finally sign up and keep up to date on things. Can't wait!!

1 pointHey guys! I am currently setting up an interview together with @LuckyDuck. There will be unique questions, no simple questions that mostly are being asked on the forums. I am planning to get a lot more insight on the game, without asking too difficult questions that would ruin the expense. If you have any questions u would like to ask the developers, please feel free to reply to this thread. I will run them down, and questions that look interesting and are worth to ask will be added to the list. ( You will be mentioned as well if it comes to that ) Thank you for your read, and thank you very much for participating. Enjoy your day!

1 pointWhat I would like to see added to Identity is, Accessibility for the Visually Impaired. The reason I suggest it is that I am partially sighted and it would be great if the dev added magnification to the in games computer and phone. I understand if this is to much of a challenge, I mean he's still got to sort out off all the regular gameplay but there aren't any visually impaired games that I an access and play, and this game looks so amazing that I really want to play it, but without the magnification feature I will be restricted to what I would do for example, say I wanted to start up a business on the computer or go and buy some clothes or food on the computer I wouldn't be able to do that. the dev said he wanted to make this game a realistic as possible, without this feature I would have to try and use some out off games apps to help me or not play the game at all. Like I said this may sound a big challenging since th dev has to sort out all of the regular gameplay but still if he did this one it would make my life amazing and two he would have overcome a major obstacle. If you or the dev think "hey this is impossible" WRONG there are such apps exist like one called DOLPHIN SUPER NOVA which has the ability to use voice over and has cases to magnification.

1 pointThat in fact is a wonderful video made by one of our capos in the family, showing off a few of our more important guys. If you have any issues with it feel free to shoot me a pm, but try to refrain from using such vulgar and unnecessary language. We like to keep it formal here in the Luprano Family and I think everyone would appreciate it if you kept that kind of language to yourself.

1 pointHey @PhoenixFury, not trying to be rude but saying " Change your name, cunt. Or i will burn your fucking business to the ground." is a not only incentive but immature. Posting that publicly and using your measle attempt to hide it in german is not helping anything. Coming out of the blue and using absurd and intense language for no reason whatsoever is just pointless. Either respectfully disagree or post a comment on how he could better change his business for the good, or get the hell out.

1 pointWhen playing a cop on public servers I'll have to deal both with people talking to me while I'll have to keep an eye on chat. So I know what you mean. But when I'll be off duty as a civilian on said public servers, I'll ignore chat text sent to me. Besides text messages, e-mail etc. I'll be glad I have the liberty to ignore that. Or perhaps -hopefully- even switch it off from the UI.

1 pointYes. There will be children in the game. I have hoped that the adults will outnumber children in this game but the contrary is a large possibility. I mean no disrespect and welcome you to the community, but you have made 6 posts and one of them is will there be kids. First of all, people who complain about children or use the word "children" in a condescending way are statistically more likely to be children themselves. I would say you are a teenager who is asking this likely to announce that you aren't a kid subliminally, even though you likely are. I didn't want to bring this up until you rather rudely stated the following: This is incredibly patronising. Just because he had an opinion that didn't discriminate about children means he is a kid? No. Yes, as it turned out he was a kid, but the principle remains. You also later replied: As if he needs some form of approval to be considered by you? Sorry, I don't know if your question was meant this way but it comes off as extremely arrogant and condescending and honestly quite narcissistic. If you are going to talk down to the younger portion of our community at least make an effort to show some maturity yourself by displaying signs of proper grammar and punctuation. I know this reply may seem harsh or aggressive but I truly cannot stand people bullying younger kids online as I have a younger brother myself. As a matter of fact the reason most young people troll and cause trouble is because they are made to feel very unwelcome by the community. If we start talking down to them and saying we don't want them on our servers, then they will start thinking why should they even try and prove their worth when they can get back at us for casting them out? Instead, engage with them and make them feel like part of this community so that they don't want to ruin it for themselves. In conclusion, I do not care how old you are. Younger people are welcome to this community no less than anyone else, its the trolls (regardless of age) who we don't want. Saying you don't want kids because some annoy you is the same as saying you don't want any Muslims because some are extremists. If you want to get rid of a bee's nest in your child's tree-house, do you cut down the entire tree or just get rid of the problem? Just saying, I will not hold this post against you in the future but these posts are the reason many kids are forced to annoy us for fun, because we don't include them in the standard role-play experience. @Numbers, I would like to apologise on BeastWarrior's behalf.
-
1 pointThe official servers will not be white-listed or such, if you don't want to play with kids you'll have to rent a private server and white-list it yourself. Also there are many kids who are more mature than Adults and while that more kids are immature, the immature adults have a higher level immaturity than kids sometimes. You was once a kid and so I am sure you didn't like being segregated because of your age and so don't segregate those who are kids now because I am sure every last one of us adults was a kid and made havoc in games for the adults before us.

1 pointI'm turning 15 on Friday, so yes, legally I am still a kid. Originally Minecraft nor GTA was targeting a child audience (to my knowledge) either way that's beside the point. I play games such as squads and arma and I haven't had anyone complain about me being young because it's impossible to tell since I'm just another person playing the game just like anyone else, I don't break any rules or act improperly which is why I can't justifying discrimination against a whole age group all because of some stereotype against them. I work for my money just like you and I expect equal treatment for my money in this game. I could say more but I feel that it won't change your views on the subject.
