Name: Emma Solstice Appearance: long brown hair, medium height, slender Race/ethnicity/nationality: white, from Germany Personality: Emma is very kind and has an easy going personality but you have to get to know her to get past her initial shyness. She is also rather careful and likes to think before she takes action. She wishes to be more courageous and tries her best to see every situation as an opportunity to grow. Education: She went to a Christian school and university. Sexuality: straight Misc facts: She abhors violence. Background: Emma grew up in rural Germany in a very religious family that is proud of its old roots. When she went to university in the neighboring town she met Markus Seefeld and they fell in love. They were just engaged to be married when he died in a bank robbery. This fateful incident changed her life. To get away from everything that reminded her of her lost love she left her family, her friends and even her country to start a new life from everything she held dear. She changed her last name from Sonnenwend to Solstice and started to live in Identity. She wanted to help those who needed help and so she became a paramedic, always trying to save lives and fighting against violence, in memory of her beloved Markus.

Hey there, as you know and said you know how hard it is, you should also know games get delayed all the time and you wouldn't go and call them ones a scam for money and so why be any different here. The game was delayed 3 times because of many things including technical stuff.

Hi there. Firstly, please realise that this question gets asked ALL THE TIME so please use the "Search" bar and navigate around the forums to find the answer before posting. This is not a scam website. You can keep up-to-date with the progress by checking out posts at the Dev Blog and by looking around the community. Please find below some useful links which you can visit to find out some more about the game. With such a small Dev Team (in comparison to larger game companies) of course there are going to be a lot of setbacks but it's a lot better than releasing the game with a lot of bugs and when it's not even finished. For anyone who has the "Founder" package or higher, first access will be released when Town Square module is finished which will allow you to create a character, go to the barbers and socialise with others until the game is fully released.

Name: Lucious L. Times Appearance: Race/ethnicity/nationality: Panthera Leo Leo: The Barbary Lion Personality: Honest Able To Delegate. Extremely Extroverted...Open Book Humorous Confident Committed Positive Direct Charismatic...Charming Education: PhD. in Peace Studies, International Studies & Political Science Sexuality: Heterosexual Misc Facts: I'm a lion! Background: The Tale of Lucious Times Lucious Lee Times ( aka Malka) grew up on the Mountains nearest and the plains of Pride Rock along with his brother Simba and his father Mufasa. An outcast Lucious was due to his interest in the humans, and his desire to be like them. At least on his mother's side, the side of the Mountains. Lucious eventually left the prides 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...

No, this is not needed this time

Okay thank you. Forgive me for the confusion. Just as I said what I have read really confused me a bit. I know I also kinda lashed out as well. Just really wanted to be clear if it is wrong. It should be changed on the official page at least.

DISCLAIMER: Everything in this post is a concept and will not reflect the finished business plans and features. Welcome to the Velocity Logistics business plan. We are a logistics company that will strive towards building a solid and stable logistics core in a domestic and commercial way. Our aim will be to tackle our clients needs by offering them logistical solutions. The services that we will provide will range from, but are not limited to: ➤ Supply Chain Management ➤ Document Courier Service ➤ Logistical Solutions & Advice ➤ Home & Office Removal Service ➤ Commercial Delivery ➤ Domestic Delivery ➤ Specialty Delivery ➤ Heavy Haulage For more information, see "Future Technology" section of the post. (Video created by @Zebra) At this time as we do not have a feel for the games economy or market. So the financial department has decided not to release pricing until the games release or until more information is released about how the games economical systems may work. Below is the Start-up Cost sheet as of now for Velocity Logistics. These are subject to change due to the variability of costs in game. These are just estimates and does not include a pro forma (projected) profit and loss statement or a pro forma (projected) balance sheet. Those will be added after the economy in-game has been flushed out properly. Anyone looking to invest should contact @MichaelPayne or @VelocityLogistics. - Andrew, Financial Director This vehicle will be used for everyday delivery for both domestic and commercial operations: This vehicle will be used for high-priority & express delivery, again, for both domestic and commercial sectors: For heavy haulage, long distance and larger cargo, the vehicle shown below will be used: For commercial and domestic removal service, including homes and offices, the vehicle below will be used: To ensure that there is no delay in our operations, we have decided to implement our own maintenance division which will include these vehicles shown below: The future technology section is to showcase our ideas for future mods for when mod support is added in Identity. Whether it be vehicle technology or a pseudo global warming mechanic. See below for some of our current ideas. The above images show a custom in-vehicle operating system that allows the driver to log in with their unique credentials provided to access an array of custom features including delivery schedule, navigation maps, important updates from HQ, panic button, SOS breakdown recovery (and more). We would also like to implement a custom "Start/Stop" system, acting as a type of AFK mechanic. So if your vehicle is left unattended or idling for more than 15 seconds, the engine will cut off and then will automatically resume when the accelerator is pressed. This will save fuel and add immersion. Here is the PDA that we plan on using for our drivers when they are delivering goods. Our warehouse will be modern, in a vast and easily accessible area to meet all of our storage and operational needs. Exterior: Interior: This is our high detailed warehouse plan, it was made with full efficiency and productivity in mind. We took numerous hours to plan and assemble the blueprint. See numbered legend for specific details on each room. The office building will be the back-bone of our company, so we want to make sure it's comfortable and stylish for our employees. Exterior: Interior: Here at Velocity Logistics, security is of the up-most importance. So it is vital to us that we keep our customers belongings and logistics safe. To ensure this all employees will have a ID card for access to our warehouses and offices. The plan I have envisioned for Velocity Logistics is a consistent and efficient security procedure which will allow for smooth operations in any situation. Now I know that data protection is a very worry-some topic among businesses, so here at Velocity Logistics, all of our data centers will be kept securely in an isolated room with 24/7 surveillance and if that isn't enough, all electrical devices will have anti intrusion software which changes it's algorithms to match whatever type of cyber attack is happening. As stated above, all the employees will be given a special key card, with higher authority allows access to more places. Our warehouses will be fitted with hidden CCTV with facial recognition. As for our delivery vehicles, they will have GPS tracking integrated inside, as well as alarms. - Jin, Security Director Our uniform will be sleek, modern and comfortable.

Please visit our website here for the latest updates! We have moved all of our information over to our website for a more efficient and user-friendly interface. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the Party, please inform us below. Policies and Laws are subject to change at any given time.

I figured these blueprints (or floor-plans) deserve their own thread. Some of these are KickStarter only pledges (too late for those; and were in Canadian Dollar), the others are still available on the current website! I've labeled them accordingly. Also, I'm pretty sure the luxury and non-luxury versions will have the same blueprint, just less fancy appliances and such. But I could be wrong. I'll try to get this confirmed. ALREADY DEBUNKED: the luxury versions are LARGER and fancier! Studio apartment ($90 and $100 website pledge reward) (originally uploaded by @LuckyDuck) Luxury one bedroom apartment ($250 website pledge reward) Luxury two bedroom apartment (CA $1,000 KickStarter pledge reward) Penthouse (CA $2,500 and CA $5,000 KickStarter pledge reward)

That is due to post counts and there is no way of choosing a title as they are set.

Tomorrow, on Friday the 25th there will be a new dev blog posted. This was confirmed on this evening's stream. That blog will feature an update of how they see where they are, etc. Also the new office they have, and stuff like that. Also game related info, of course. With a blog like that, you can estimate yourself how long you'll think it will take them. They'll refrain from giving estimates regarding release dates now and in the future. They've made that mistake before in the past, but will never again. So I suggest you read the upcoming dev blog several times over, and make your own conclusions. I believe that's the safest way.

The new video will be here very soon. It's nearly done now. Tomorrow Friday the 25th there will be a dev blog (confirmed on the stream this evening). They also confirmed the video won't be done prior to that, but it will come soon after. It will also feature Meth Cooks. Erm... I meant Meth Chefs. (sorry about that). I'm curious in any case.

Though politics will be a big part of Identity. Even if you aren't into it, you'll be confronted with it. Tax rates, bylaws, etc. But I suppose there won't be any "real" left or right wing parties. Not in the racial sense anyway. That wouldn't take with Asylum or the majority of the citizens. Or anyone with common sense. Religion is touchy though. Allowing some outfits, like for nuns, would mean allowing anything else religious wise. In this case it's all or nothing. Going mid-way would be treading dangerous waters. So I suggest the devs think deeply about this. I'm not a religious person, and I couldn't care what happens either way. But I do feel (maybe as an outsider) that religious people can get quite angered not so much if misrepresented or underrepresented, but more so if unequally represented.

I just wanted that information to be more clear because I have been confused already about what has been said. Just so it helps others not get the same confusion I had.

It is clear I pose as a lion, will the customization go far enough to where I could have a mane and golden skin...hopefully even red eyes?

Thank you

As shown on the stream of 23rd of August 2017. New car-shader (metallic) - Low resolution screenshot (in-game editor).

I am sure there will be both just small/ minimal.

Im going to try n make a Modern Day 1937 Germany, most think it will probably be very bad and a horrible place but I am quite possitive that it will develop into one of the greatest servers and a world of which A.H. Himself imagined!!!!

Hello Lucious, the reason for the lack of pledges is due to the slow influx of new users to identity at the moment. I can assure you that once the new video is released, there will be a influex of new players to identity along with new recruits. We assure you that even with the slow down of new players wishing to join, the family is still heavily active, heathy, and strong. We thank you for your concern.

Just living the life of a veteran politician!

To state a fact, as Governor, no matter how many times I die I respawn back in office without any changes. Explain your idea of qualified, because my past and present make me quite qualified along with the other major American candidates such as @ThomasHetch and @BobbyCruz . We can't run campaigns or learn anything about Identity by being quiet, me as a target by criminals... I doubt it...highly doubt it! It's not that I'm unstable it's that I learn! As I learn I change things, I'm not new this, I do my research and adapt! One thing I have never done is belittle another citizens, candidates, or developer on the forums! It's ignorant. It's hard to get a vibe from you when you say something disrespectful then end it with ":):)" ! I don't hold grudges or hate people or anything like that, but your first post on my campaign feed had to be that? I'm sure you could have come slightly more professional!

I do not believe you have to reclaim it like Radack (like the other moderator) said

I mean, there's always going to be the risk that anything can get out of hand very quickly but that doesn't mean that I still can't comment on it. In a game based around living a second life, in the most realistic way possible, it would only be natural to implement hijabs, kippahs and other religious pieces of clothing. There will of course be laws in place on official servers and I imagine that Identity themselves would work hard to prevent Islamaphobia, racism, etc. But there's still no reason why members of the Muslim, Jewish, Sikh, etc. community can't feel welcome in here just because of what they wear as part of their religion. If they want to be able to roleplay as themselves in another world, they should be able to. The reference to LGBTQIA+ equality and same-sex marriage that I made was in regards to the "isms" and your worry of their being hate and discrimination. Many people are against same-sex marriage and the LGBTQIA+ community (which is very sad and unfortunate) but Identity still allowed same-sex marriage in the game so why can't they add religious clothing into the game just because of the few trolls who might disagree with it? People aren't always going to agree with everything. That was why I brought it up. You're more than welcome to your opinion, of course, and it's good that we can share our thoughts on things like this so that the community as a whole can feel comfortable with the game when it's released, but I'm just sharing my opinion too, so I hope you understand that. I agree, if the Devs were to share their opinion (which I imagine they might in the future) that would also be very helpful, however, I imagine they are working on more important things and will get to the "smaller" details such as specific pieces of clothing in the near future.

Subtle. Very subtle

The new website will launch soon enough and so no point them changing stuff yet.

So like it was said above, you must going to a Academy/ School/ University in the game to take a tutorial, once you have watched the tutorial you will be qualified for the Job. The next part is that you need to go to the nearest Police Station and sign up as a cop. You then go into the back changing room and put on your uniform in which you will then be On Duty. When you take the uniform off again, you will become Off Duty. When trying to become On Duty, if there is too many officers at that time, then you won't be able to b a cop and also when off duty, you are a citizen.

Monopoly! ?

For public servers you will go through a academy "tutorial" and if there is a open slot you will be able to become a officer!

Yes this is very possible, it was a major point in the trailer.

Big thanks to anybody that keeps this topic up to date!

TY for the help.

Welcome, Emma! My name's Brian, it's great to meet you There's some links in LuckyDuck's and my Signature below if you're interested. It's just some FAQs and a video Q&A with the Devs but they provide a lot of information which I think you might enjoy. Anyway, welcome to the community!

Thank you. Best of luck

Hello @EmmaSolstice Welcome to the community! I can tell you that it is purely your choice depending on how much you want to help the developers out in funding this game. I do also recommend the founder package or above like @monokoi said, you'll have access to the 3 modules and Beta before the full game release and well it just means you won't have to wait as long to enjoy the game. have a nice day! - LuckyDuck.

Hey Ali, the first module of the games alpha should release soon, from what I've read. You'll find essential information in the FAQs linked below. The Q&A video below also provides some nice insights.

Moin, moin Emma! I'd recommend getting the founders pledge or above. This way you'll get acces to the early version of the game. Paramedics / EMT is an option, have a look at this thread to hook up with other medics,

Supermoto all the way <3

For the people who are into it I think there should be a option for some motorcycle choppers like a 2005 American IronHorse Legend or a 2017 Honda Fury. I personally would like something that is on and off road bike like a BMW R1200GS Adventure or 2017 KTM Freeride E-XC.

You're correct about there being no System Requirement list yet. It's too early in the game for them to give any accurately required specs.

You can rent out houses but not apartments. You can own factories!

"You'll have no trouble making friends with Identity's world-class voice communication system. When you do meet new people, add them to your friends list using your in-game smartphone. Your contacts will even carry over into the full Identity game!" Also I watched an interview with the devs and proximity chat will be there, but for long distance you will have to call their phone number. If worried about the problem, there will be non official servers which will be ran by people, you can report them to the owners of that server and have them dealt with. Now if on an official server, not sure how they can deal with it. I suggest walking away from them and ignore them. I feel like it will be unlikely that you will have toxic conversation as the game has so much to do.

A color is far from permanent. You'll be able to change your paintjob anyway. So I wish they gave two separate sports cars from the $250 and $500 pledge, which in turn are not available to be bought any other way. Seeing I pledged $250 I'd enjoy being the only one or one of a few people who own that specific car on a server. I realize it won't be like that most likely, but it's my two cents.

the engine also doesn't determine how the game will look it just shows the possibility

Will there be motion blur in the game? And if yes could you please make an option to turn it off because it gives some people headaches.

I'm glad that the devs have thought a lot about this. I think that the devs are very aware of the chaos that is moving around the map in GTA and are trying to create a more realistic, and less killing heavy game. GTA just has criminals, Identity has criminals, citizens, government officials, and police, they will definitely make sure that everyone can play their role, and move around the map.

On my Server this will not happen

Wow, what a month. It's been busy here at Asylum as usual, so let's get down to the interesting stuff! As expected, our current focus is on the Town Square so that we can get it out to you as soon as possible. We're finalising the interior of the library and art gallery (shared within one building) and adding polish to the environment. Once the clothing store interior is complete following that, the Town Square environment is ready to go. We'll continuously be adding more art after release though; specifically for house furnishings, decorations and clothing. In addition to the environment art, Miroslav (character artist) has been creating all sorts of hair assets which allow us to show hair appropriately when wearing a hat or helmet. This is a big task for him as it means making variations to match the hat options for each length of hair, but in the end it'll ensure your hair always looks as you'd expect when wearing headgear. Hair under a hat; work in progress Right next to the clothing shop you'll find a bicycle store where you can get a sneak preview of some of the bikes you'll be able to ride around in the full Identity release. We showed you a bicycle work in progress last blog post and now you can see the finished result of that below. This image will give you a rough idea of the detail level you'll see in Identity's vehicles. Ridable bicycle With more final systems coming online for the Town Square release, we now have functioning phones. Each player will start with a cellphone, although you'll be able to upgrade it with three mobile OS options available. The phone OS' each have a unique and interesting style. Characters also have a designated phone number assigned when they're created; you'll be able to get a custom number for a fee. These phones work just as you'd expect. You're able to dial up another player and speak with voice remotely. Businesses can even get a business line which, when called, will contact a member of that corporation who's online. Shot from an internal system test: advertising While the art of the billboard above isn't final, it gives you a very good idea of what you can expect in Identity for advertising. That's right, you can really publish messages around the world through billboards and other means. Corporations and those running for government office can purchase billboard space to help get their message out. You'll select a graphical template from a large list of options and then attach a brief message or other customization to make it your own. These billboards can also be moderated by the server operators. There are other similar advertising systems, too. For example digital road signs can be made to show custom messages by the current government. We can't wait to show you more of Identity, and we'll soon have that opportunity with the release of an overhauled website. Those current pledge packages are about to go away forever, and some of the rewards won't be available for purchase again after the new website changes. Also, follow us on our Twitch channel if you'd like to stop in and ask questions of the developers. On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday you'll find a few developers playing a random game from 4pm EST to 5pm EST. Ask any questions and they'll be happy to answer on stream. Catch some of Identity's developers hard at work and see how they make the magic happen: we'll be providing development streaming dates and times on Twitter, soon! -- John VanderZwet

Can you make a rare pepe
