    White mask would take a seat in front of his Genes desk. "Yeah sorry about that guy he wasn't so friendly." White mask leans back into the chair and looks around. He hears the music of a piano and the notices the smoke that filled the room. "Uhh Im no expert here but, either you have a fire or a bad ass Cuban in the back rollin so nice cigars." he shrugs to himself, he looks over at Gene and nods "Well Im no criminal I am just a guy who likes to have fun....ahh shit your right some people are calling me the Prince of Crime, I am very flattered." He listens to Gene. "Well like I always says. Give a man a mask and he'll become his true self." He points to his head and then folds his arms. "Ok so what do you want to discuss? I have to meet someone for about some money. and I don't want to die of second hand smoke." (sorry for the short post I really don't know what else to put @GeneSmith so your up. And again if anyone is out there wanting to join go ahead. you can just RP away and if you want people to rp with you just send them a PM)

    In the earliest days of Identity's release, most people will likely start with bicycles for transportation. The bicycles can, for the most part, hold only a single person and are clearly not as quick as a motorized vehicle. They also don't have trunk space. Now imagine trying to make some early dollars by doing odd jobs around town. Gathering, delivery tasks, and so on will be a lot easier if you can both get around quicker and carry larger hauls.

    Hello Mark Fenti who's been a member since 3:05pm Monday and has only made 3 posts on the forums (All threads that Calico has also posted in). I'm sure your ingenious attempt to have an oddly NOT suspicious at all second account come in here and try stomp your feet at the slightest little error in my ways that you could find seemed like a great plan to have the "numbers" on your side and all. But it was actually pretty pathetic and transparent. Anyways, Mr Mark. Honesty and rudeness co-exist, you can't point out to someone how moronic they are being without also being rude I suppose.

    Thank you for pledging towards the development of Identity! Our records indicate that a pledge was made from this email address and that you're interested in project updates. Beginning of a new era Wow, what a month; busy and exciting and full of promise! While the developers have been hard at work getting the Town Square module ready to go, I've been preparing our new office space and interviewing potential Asylum developers. We've raised almost $800,000, allowing us to expand in a big way and bring on loads of new talent. Asylum Entertainment's new home If you read my last dev blog you'll remember that we had just scouted out office space and had narrowed our search to one. Now we have the keys and I've been working hard to get it operational. I never want to see another hex key again! It's almost hard to imagine that we've been working on Identity with a team spread out around the world. The talent of our small team has astonished me. It's exciting to consider how finally working in a formal setting is going to boost productivity. Not only is working in an office such as this going to make it easier to work together, but we've been on a hiring craze. Having sifted through hundreds of applications over the past few weeks and interviewing dozens of skilled individuals, we've selected most new developers to join our team. Our programming manpower is now three times stronger. Finally, after all this time we're now able to afford a full-time community manager. Joining our team at the new office location next week is Identity's community manager, Brandon! You'll be hearing from him very regulary. We're committing to keeping you in constant contact with the development team. Keep an eye on our website as well as social media! Town Square on the horizon! With our new studio starting up next week and the new programming talent coming on-board, our goal of the Town Square release is getting nearer. It's big news: the official Town Square release date will be announced in the month of October. With all of the changes affecting our productivity in such a positive way, we need to see how everyone works together over the next few weeks. This will allow us to give our fans a date with which we can be confident. We've got the Twitch We wanted to give you a glimpse of the game development process and have been streaming on Twitch to show you how it's done. Four hour (or more) long streams have gone live since my last dev blog; keep an eye on Identity's Twitter for future stream announcements. We try to have at least one development stream per week. As a fan of Identity, one of the things you're going to enjoy most is the flurry of videos which will be coming soon showing off the social features of the Town Square. For a simple social module, there's a good bit of fun things to do! New in the Town Square Our lead programmer, Henrik, has been hard at work these last couple of weeks refactoring our housing system to make it more stable and better performing for the Town Square module release. Everything's looking great at this point and he's very excited to get a bunch of new help over the next couple of weeks. With more great talent joining our art team, we're producing assets and new environments at an astonishing pace. Interiors we only hoped to have in Town Square by its release have gone from concept to reality very quickly. Last dev blog I showed you the concept art pieces produced for the police station. The police station was something we didn't expect to be available in the initial Town Square release, but with our art team hard at work we're getting a lot done. Below you'll find the lobby as it is in-game. The police station in Town Square will be a place for you to learn about the policing career, but it will also eventually feature a shooting range for you to test the weapon systems in Identity. Police station lobby in Town Square Our character and clothing team has also been adding a large variety of things to wear in the Town Square. Both clothing and accessories are being added all the time. Note the attention to detail and excellent quality of the clothing pieces in Identity. New sweater clothing What's to come In summary, we've been moving along with Identity's development at a great pace considering the size of our team; however, our team is growing in a big way right now. New developers are selected and some are starting at the new office as early as this coming week. Once the new guys have been oriented and we get an understanding of their work, we're going to be able to analyze the tasks remaining and give you a release date for Town Square. This is a big deal; Town Square isn't all that far off now and we're already preparing and planning for the next module: SWAT. I hoped to release a video showing combat systems already, but most the remaining work for that falls on myself as the other developers are busy with the real systems for Town Square. I've not had much time over these weeks from preparing the office, so that's on hold a bit; my priority is getting the Town Square module into your hands as soon as possible. Because we're getting further along now, and with the added manpower, we're going to soon start releasing small gameplay videos showing off the different aspects of Town Square. Finally, Brandon is joining Asylum as a dedicated full-time community manager! Brandon will be keeping you up to date constantly. Our silent days are soon to be over!

    So like I only saw one post related to this and there wasn't much variety (especially when it came to black women. So ima put down some black hairstyles so that hopefully we will have more variety. I hope that there won't just be straight hair options and I hope that the devs add things like cornrows or boxbraids or dreadlocks, and afros and such.

    Three months ago... Zoey wakes up in the back of an ambulance, the time is around 7 AM. It's a dark rainy night. This night was especially dark considering the local power grid was out. There was only one visible beacon of light, the chemical warehouse on fire. Zoey was feeling drowzy, and weak. Being hooked up to an IV bag with some mild sedatives to keep her calm. She'd reach over to her arm, and pull the needle out. Rather painfully. And steps out of the roller-bed in the back of the ambulance, and weakly makes her way outside. Unable to stand properly, and leaning against the ambulance, as she sets her feets on the ground outside of the ambulance, and makes her way over, from the back, to the driver side. The ambulance was parked, facing the cliff edge. With the head lights on. She spots a black figure, looking like a man in the distance. He seems to be overlooking the ocean bellow the cliffs. Having no idea what happened, or how she got here. She doesn't trust this figure, and instead tries to approach him. She leans against the ambulance as much as she can, till she gets to the front. Then let's go, and slowly, but quietly stumbles her way. Still feeling rather weak in her legs. Up behind the man. She notices her own gun tucked behind his back belt. She'd quickly reach out and grab it. And steps back, pointing her gun at him. She doesn't quite seem capable of holding it straight. And having some issues seeing properly. As well on the brink of falling down. The man, chuckles lightly. And puts his hands out to each of his sides. Then turns around slowly. Looking straight at Zoey. And Zoey stares right back at him. It was the man with the white mask. "You!", she'd shout weakly. And pointing the gun as if seeing double. "You did this!", she'd exclaim. The man in the white mask, chuckles lightly. And responds calmly, "This is only the beginning, dear Agent Anderson." He'd then reach up slowly, towards his mask. And takes it off, letting it fall to the ground. Zoey stares with an expression less stare for a moment. As if speechless. Letting her guard down as well. And slightly lowering her gun, as she's focused on his face. "It's... You... You were supposed to be dead.", Zoey weakly speaks out. "Join me... We can be partners again.", he'd respond. "N-no...No...NO..!! It... It can't be you, Decker. I saw you die.", she'd shake her head in denial. Decker reaches and smacks Zoey's gun away. She'd loose her balance, and falls down. He'd then reach into his jacket, and grabs a needle. He goes down to one knee in front of Zoey now laying on the ground. And goes to inject her neck with the contents of the needle. *BAM!!!* can be heard echoing throughout the cliffs, and trees nearby. As Decker stands up, and takes a few steps backwards. Towards the edge of the cliff. He'd raise his hand to his chest, then in front of his face. His hand was bloodied. And he falls to one knee. Zoey, lies on the ground, holding the gun facing up to where he was. With smoke leaving the barrel. She'd pull out the needle from her neck, and try and crawl over to where Decker was standing on his knees. To try and grab him before he falls backwards and into the ocean bellow. He'd reach out with his bloodied hand, and give Zoey's cheek a stroke. Leaving behind some of his blood. As she reaches out to try and grab him. But it was too late. He'd already start falling backwards. And off the cliff. Zoey yells out, "Nooo...!!". And the knockout serum injected into her was already starting to take effect. And she falls unconscious at the edge of the cliff, with one hand in front of her, reaching for the edge. Blue flashing lights, and sirens can be heard coming closer in the distance. (( I changed a few things with the ending, hope you don't mind @UnknownX)) Roll intro for season 2. Present day... Zoey wakes up, in a small, dark and crappy looking room. With one simple light hanging from the ceiling. Swaying back and forth casually. An old, rustic looking bucket in one of the corners. And a old crappy bed in the other corner. With a filthy mattress. And a metallic looking door on the opposite side of the bed. She'd grunt, and moan. Blood running down her forehead, and some of it even in her hair. She'd look rather badly beaten. She'd try to move, and quickly discovered her hands are cuffed behind her back. She sits up on the cold hard floor, and leans against the bed. After a while. A metallic plate in the door slides open. And someone peeks inside. Zoey looks up, and speaks out. "Is it time for my daily beating again?", she'd chuckle ironically. And spits some blood towards the door. The person peeking in at her doesn't respond, and just slides the plate shut. She'd then hear three heavy duty locks clicks, and the door opens up. Two large looking brutes, at least three times the size of Zoey steps inside. And each grabs one of her shoulders. And almost carries her out of the cell. And down a corridor, and trough some more doors, and other corridors. Then finally, they enter some sort of large storage area. Clearly a warehouse of some kind. But it's empty. In the middle of the floor, is one simple, foldable camping chair. And some more brutes standing nearby. The two brutes carrying Zoey, places her on the chair. She'd sit down, with her hands still cuffed behind her back. They didn't bother restraining her any further. There's no way to go anyway. One brute stands behind Zoey, and another brute in front of her. But a little to the side and out of the way. To the distance in front of her, a small curtail wall would be put up. And a Russian voice can be heard from behind it. "Do you know how long you've been our prisoner, Agent Anderson?" Zoey leans over and spits over some blood on the, newly cleaned floor. "It's hard to keep track, you know with the beating at all. Perhaps we should switch places?" Dimitri laughs, and steps forward, out of the curtains. Revealing himself. And steps closer to Zoey. He's wearing a white fancy suit, with a red tie. And some white latex gloves. "Well, seems like your humor isn't broken yet. But we can fix that.", he'd give a signal to the brute. The brute in front of Zoey, steps up. And gives her a real hard punch to her stomach. Zoey leans forward, and coughs. And spits up some more blood. "You've been with us for two weeks now. And you still haven't broken. I will have to admit, I admire your will power. But it is for nothing. Either you will tell me what I want to know. Or you will die here." "I've told you the same thing for two weeks now. I don't know what you're talking about.", she'd respond. Dimitri clearly getting tired of the same answer, he orders the brute to beat Zoey again. The brute steps forward again, and starts beating the shit out of Zoey. After a short while, she's beaten unconscious. The brute steps back. Dimitri calls for the doctor, behind the curtain. He steps out, and approaches Zoey. And starts to patched her up. Stop the bleeding. And whatever else he can to keep her alive for the moment. Dimitri steps back, and pulls out at phone. And calls someone. Zoey wakes up after her treatment a few minutes later. As she wakes up, and looks up. She'd notice Dimitri standing in front of her, with a gun aimed at her head. "Unfortunately for you, my boss has ran out of patience. And has decided you are no longer of any use to us." Zoey smirks, "Well, I guess it's my turn then.". Everyone goes quiet, as he's about to pull the trigger. A small clicking sound can be heard coming from Zoey's cuffs. As suddenly, she hops out. And tackles the gun away from Dimitri. In their fight, the gun goes off, and hits a nearby gas canister. And the gas coming out of it is set on fire, almost creating a flamethrower of some kind. The fire spewing out of it, just hits one of the brutes legs. And sets him on fire. He starts screaming, and panicking. Zoey manages to wrestle the gun out of Dimitri's hand, and turns it against Dimitri, and fires once. Point blank, into his chest. Then she turns around, and shoots down the two other brutes just about to shoot her. She'd turn to the third brute, which is on fire. And shoots him as well, putting him out of his misery. She'd turn the gun to the doctor, who puts his hands up in the air. And says, "Run!". Then she'd do the same herself, and runs towards the nearest window. And jumps trough the glass. And into the water outside. It appears to have been a warehouse by the docks. Just as she jumped trough the glass, the gas canister inside explodes. And blows up all the gas pipes, and the large gas tank under the warehouse. Creating a massive Hollywood type explosion. And Zoey hits the water just in time. And swims over to the other side. She'd pull herself up from the water, onto the edge of the dock. and then lies down catching her breath. On the other side of the water canal from the warehouse. The cuffs remain cuffed only on one of her hands. There are some clear markings on her other wrist, where the cuff used to be. OOC: There we go...! Finally, back. So, for anyone without any connections to the Russian mob. Will know that Zoey ordered back to Washington, DC for a full briefing to her superiors about what happened in Season 1. She was supposed to have returned two weeks ago. But that didn't happen. By all accounts, it would seem like she never left Washington. And would still probably be there. Alive and well. No reason to suspect otherwise. As for anyone connected to the Russian mob, would know that a guy named Dimitri have kidnapped an FBI Agent. Unless you're directly involved, you probably wouldn't know who. But the only FBI Agent who has been here, would be Agent Anderson. So it would likely her. But it's been quiet. These guys are, were, professionals. As of what happens next, maybe someone is near enough to see the explosion. And come to investigate before the firemen or police shows up. Perhaps someone else, equally bad owns the docks next door. Where Zoey is currently resting. And they find her after coming to investigate the explosion? Feel free to PM me, always open for interactions. I just made Dimitri up in this instance. We probably won't see him again though. Being blown up and all.

    Will the city have things like bike lanes, bus lanes, etc? Will there be interstates (75mph), highways (55mph), dirt roads, etc? What scenery will you see as you drive from the cities, interstates/highways, etc? Will there be a police department for highways or other cities or will the PD be the whole map?
  12. 1 point
    There will be dirt roads and highways. There is only one PD but there are numerous station around the map. And there will probably be bike lanes / bus lanes when it seems relevant and fitting to the scenery as they want to make it as realistic as possible. There will also be different like paths you can take in the PD like detectives and such

    Let's discuss some of your policies and laws. I will try to list some good things AND some bad things for each policy, however, some may be better/worse than others and some may only consist of good/bad feedback. This should NOT be taken as an insult but, instead, as constructive criticism. Taxes It's good that you are going into specifics about tax rather than just saying one number as a percentage for everything regarding the economy. However, your percentages are far too low. In total, you're sitting at a 13% tax. I understand that citizens may find tax frustrating and unnecessary, however, it is very much required to help fund government projects and increase the budget for things such as the Emergency Services. Defence This is far too vague and not even close to being detailed enough. By what means can they defend themselves? What classes as being attacked? Can they defend themselves if they feel threatened? If someone has a weapon? Can they use a weapon to defend themselves? Can they only fight back or can they kill to defend themselves too? Much more information is needed here. Faith I know that it isn't of "much" importance, however, your grammar/capitalisation is a bit "off" there with an unnecessary capitalisation of the word "T" in "Think" and a double-space between "can" and "believe". I just wanted to point this out so that you can fix it to make it look neater and more professional. As for the policy itself, it's good, however, you need to clarify a bit more. Which religions and beliefs are allowed? Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, Islam, Sikhism, etc.? These, I could understand and would, of course, be acceptable, however, you simply said, and I quote: Does this mean that you would allow people to believe that killing is okay? Is Satanism also okay by that logic? More detail is needed here. Also, I have a MASSIVE point to make in regards to your statement here but I'll wait until it gets to "Gay Rights". Energy I promise you that I'm not trying to insult you or your campaign, truly, however, it seems as if you only took a second to think of details and then quickly threw them down and moved on to the next policy. Regardless of what you may think, I'm really not trying to attack you but this is very vague and seems like not much effort was put into it. "I think that should be made in anyway needed". Firstly, it's "any way", not "anyway". "anyway" should be used in a different context. It's also not clear what you mean by that. Gun Rights This is always an enjoyable topic to discuss, isn't(?) Now this policy I, somewhat, do support! Whilst this island is set to be within the United States of America, where people have the right to possess firearms, there must be proper gun control restrictions and limitations set in place, however, people should still have the right to firearms. It's just about "who is eligible?" and "which type of firearm?". Farmers, shopkeepers and, of course, Law Enforcement should be amongst those eligible, however, we shouldn't just hand out weapons to anybody. Licences must be applied for and acquired. Your policy is, however, not detailed enough. Environment "I mean yeah". I honestly don't mean to "attack" or "insult" you at all, however, this could not be any further from professionalism. I highly recommend fixing this. Also, "littering should not be encouraged"? How about actually placing LAWS about littering and setting fines? It shouldn't just be discouraged, it should be sanctioned. Drugs WHICH DRUGS? HOW WOULD YOU ENFORCE THIS? FINES? JAIL/PRISON TIME? Not detailed enough. Health Care You're right; citizens of the island should be taken care of but how? Does this mean FREE healthcare or just affordable? Also, what about healthcare for tourists injured during their stay on the island? Or immigrants injured? Criminals injured? Side-Note: What's your views on immigration? Gay Rights Okay, now here is where you have, quite simply, frustrated me. Although not political, for the sake of risking violating forum rules, I'm not going to get too in-detail here, however you DO need to be educated on this matter. The title of this policy, first and foremost should be "LGBTQ+ rights" rather than simply "Gay Rights". By changing the title, you are including much more of the community and are explaining to more people, rather than simply to same-sex couples. What would this policy mean to bisexual people? Transgender people? Polyamory people in polyamorous relationships? Now, remember that thing I said about your "Faith" point? That I wanted to bring something up in regards to "Gay Rights"? Quite simply, if you allow people to demonstrate any religion and/or belief that they follow, why can you not allow the same for same-sex couples and LGBTQ+ relationships? If you allow for people to follow an OPTIONAL following (following a religion is YOUR CHOICE), why can't you allow same-sex marriage and other LGBTQ+ relationships which are NOT OPTIONAL? When I say "NOT OPTIONAL", I mean, it's genetic. Ask me to back this fact up and I will, however, for forum rules sakes, I won't get too into it for now but you are BORN with your sexuality and gender identity (not the same as biological sex). Again, I don't want to get too into this but there seems to be a hypocrisy regarding your "Faith" and your "Gay Rights" policies. CONCLUSION More detail needed in all policies.

    Gene chuckles while looking at White Mask. ”Funny, and you’ve got a mouth on you. Last person I met that ran his trap got fucked up. Yeah it’s smokey in here, it’s a smoking lounge.” Before putting out his cigarette he motions his second hand man to bring something over. It looks like a tray of food. But as Gene opens the platter it’s the bleeding head of the goon White Mask beat up. ”I don’t like being fucked with. Nor do you I suppose. You can call yourself whatever you like but a man who murders and kidnaps isn’t exactly a hero.” Gene looks directly at White Mask, his eyes piercing straight through the soul. ”You’re a criminal, like me. Even though you don’t like to say it. You blend into society without your mask. But with it, with it you’re considered a freak. A murderer... They think less of you because of who you are, what you do, what you say. But when you have money. When you have power. You don’t gain respect. Respect is for amateurs, no I gain fear through my allies.” Gene slides over 200,000$ and smiles. ”Think of this as an investment for a partnership. I wanna see what you can do. With a bit of money you can become more that a King. You’ll be a god.” Gene leans back in his seat, his face barely out of the light. All you see is his devilish smile. ”Have fun...”

    @Honeybadger Here's a comment from somebody who has been on the forum longer than you and has more posts, happy? From what you have been saying it really shows that you are not any better than those you try to pin your accusations on, You try to cover up your little rant on this family by trying to make it look like you don't actually care. "Nah, just promoting my book, friend. " "Honeybadger - Don't worry about him, he doesn't give a sh.." If you really didn't care then you wouldn't have wasted your time typing a whole story on why "The Luprano Family is bad" in the comment section whining about the past mistakes that happened almost a year ago like a shitty child. The truth is that you have a certain unnecessary hatred for the Family because you can't let things go. So you see the family's growing success and you boil in your little brain and type away a slanderous story to try to knock the family off it's feet, Well that won't and will never happen at this rate, so get over it. If you don't like the family then fine go ahead with your own shit and don't spew eyesores all over the forum and blow things out of proportion. Get over yourself. "You 'literally' have gotten more retarded than I could have ever imagined over the last year." ~ Honeybadger That's funny most of what i read in your little story is that the Family was acting like immature and threw unnecessary insults at people, Kinda hypocritical. Guess you're not as credible as you seem. Not only did you make a sad attempt at defending yourself but you also deleted the comment, whats the matter? Embarrassed?

    Well sooner or later in time the technology will make it possible but yes it will be hard for it to happen. I am sure their can be a process which flags images for approval and such. Maybe it will be all manually done. There is many possibilities.

    I get your point, but every language won't be represented. I think it's logical to ask for French or Dutch servers specifically more than asking for Nicaraguan servers or such since those aren't "top priority" when it comes to localizations, no offense intended EDIT: That being said, I wouldn't ask for French servers, even though I'm French myself, because French community is one of the WORST in the whole world =.=

    As the black Cadillac drives up to the club Gene finishes his glass of bourbon before seating himself in the booth. Loading his favorite pistol, he sets it down on the table. As his goon walks in White Mask walks behind. “Please sit down, we have much to discuss.” Noticing his goon bloodied and beaten he walks up to him and asks him if he’s alright. He whispers something to his second hand man and then they walk off with the hurt man. ”Sorry about the extra security. People grow anxious at a face they can’t see. People gain comfort and satisfaction when they are able to identify a criminal. Your mysterious and outgoing, I enjoy that.” The calm piano music playing softly in the background with the smoke filled room acting as a seductive counter to Gene’s voice.

    Take what I say or ignore it, it's my philosophy and opinion. It is definitely not worth it. One of the things that I love and always will love about MMORPGs is making your way up. Work your way up to that car, even if its a small goal. Where's the fun in getting it for yourself? Start small and grow. The only reason to pay those extra 30 is if you want to support the development, which is a good reason.

    I grabbed the 250 pledge as well, it certainly wasn't for the 2k, and other stuff that come with it...I bought a PC so I could play this game, and put aside 250 for games, but decided I wanted to see Identity come to life more than having a few extra games. While I wait for it to get developed, I have been enjoying all sorts of games that I could never play on console. To me, I think they are gonna need as much help as they can get. They definitely bit off more than they could chew, but getting more developers involved and getting their new office space, from the help and support from their player base. When they started this they knew they couldn't do it alone, so they got help from kickstarter, and the pledges made since then that have enabled them to go from mission impossible to mission attainable. PC gamers have the unique option to get involved with alot of the games that they play. I realize everyone don't have money growing on trees, niether do I. I had to make sacrifices to pledge that much. But Identity could be a game changer. If they can gamble and put everything on the table to make it a reality. I will do what I can to see that it becomes one of the games that really distinguishes PC gaming from consoles. I played consoles for so long, and I don't want this game to come to console atleast till consoles are rocking mini gtx 1080's or something like that. If I can get 250 before these pledges end I will definitely drop it...cause as enormous as Identity plans to be they are gonna need as much help as they can get. Being frugal only gets you so far...and honestly looking at how much and how long Rockstar put into GTA V with all their resources. I don't even think they should do 15-30 dollar pledges. I think they are hurting themselves giving away this game for that lil even though its for development so they don't scare the penny pinchers away. Games that don't get enough support from their player base either fail to come to light, or get outside funding from another source that usually wants to have alot of say over how things get made from that point on with their money. Which translates into a possibly alot of things changing and suffering so pledge as much as you can afford depending on how bad you want to see idnetity come to life, and not how cheap you can jump on the band wagon for...just my 25 cents

    I am really starting to get irritated with these kinda of posts. How many times must it be said...Identity is a huge undertaking, being done by a small group, that IS getting bigger, NOT a Triple-A studio with hundreds of employee's and a blank check at their disposal. Really, I think its more of the constant negative whining, about a game more than 2x the size of GTA V, that is taking a small team to do things on your schedule...Maybe if people weren't so thick and instead of bitching "they got my $15-$30 and it's been two years...WHAaaaaa" maybe make some positive videos or posts drawing people in to the idea instead of giving them cause to think it could be exactly like other failed games. I honeslty think it's the spoiled self absorbed PC gamers, that want way better games but wanna pay as lil as possible to get it, that bring down the quality of games on PC. You guys belong on console, PC gaming is not about saving money.If you spent 3-4-$500 on a pc and then whine about how much games cost...Your gaming on PC for the wrong reason,YOU are the reason games for PC suffer. PC is for gaming enthusiasts. Cheap PC's are for the pretenders that want to feel like a part of something, without actually spending what is needed to be a part of pc gaming. You don't buy a Lamborghini with Honda pockets...I'm so happy that things are starting to pick up, and we will be hearing about the town square module release very soon. Then maybe all the naysayers will STFU now, and give it a chance to blossom. I swear it's like poop on the flower and expect it to grow thru 3 feet of shit. Give 'em a chance to make it, Rome wasn't built in a day. I can do analogies all day long.

    2/3 threads actually. But yeah, that account is mine and I'm switching inbetween the two accounts to definitely wreck you! Especially with comments like "well that's rather rude." Totally, honey badger, totally. You should work for the FBI.

    Nah, just promoting my book, friend. Hadn't been on in a long time, checked my discord/unread messages and saw a lot of it come back up. Then I realized, Frank brought this on himself. Duh! I mean, we can't have a Mafia publicly exclaim that they do not harass people (when they are known for publicly harassing people) that's just, wrong. I can't let people join with an organization that's falsely advertising, it would be immoral of me.

    This is simply to give people honest insight into what they're considering joining. Unless you're under the age of 15 and enjoy having no structure, please don't waste your time on these people. To those of you that have already pledged, I hope you see the light before its too late! Hey guys! I hope everyone will be on the lookout to buy my book as soon as it hits shelves in the game. I thought it was important to maintain documents of our great history here in Identity, as our great ancestors have done in the past in their worlds. I figured, what better way to start than with the disappointingly rapid rise and fall of a great mafia family here in our very own community. I hope you all enjoy reading as much as I have enjoyed writing! Note this is only a work in progress / rough draft and I would like to hear your opinions on how to make the book even greater. It all started on one fine day when little Capo Jerry was taking a stroll through The Neighborhood. He stumbled into (an actually well-res pected) Lawyer by the name of Barry Crow. For whatever reason, Jerry feels the need to express his well-thought out ideas to everyone he meets. Most people keep the really great ones to themselves, but not Jerry. No, his ideas are so great that everyone must know about them. However, there's a catch. Should you not agree with Jerry and think his ideas are amazing, you are directly offending him and the well-respected mafia family he represents. Every night The Luprano Family meets up in their big, giant mansion up on the Ashy Hills to discuss things like who to murder, which business to destroy, and who on that day does not agree with them. Common dialogue exchanged between famous Mafia's such as this one can be found in the example below: The Prologue - A Night In The Life of a Mafia Obviously distraught at the assumption he was not an intelligent man, Jerry was instantly offended. Action must be had, the Mafia MUST declare it's presence. In steps the man only know as Don @Frank Luprano. He is the leader of this great Family, no other family can compare to his, because they only have 2 members tops. With Capo Jerry @Resurge at this side the two are a force to be reckoned with - one which makes @Frank unstoppable. Chapter 1 - How To Burn A Brownie Meet Brownie, your normal every day citizen that decided he may want to try out the Mafia lifestyle. @Frank had asked him to meet the family at the house later for initiation, but as Brownie pulled up to the front he noticed a lot of ruckus and loud conversation going on in the house. In fear of his decision being the wrong one Brownie immediately wanted nothing to do with the situation, he respectfully declined their offer to join the family - but not joining the great Luprano Family is a crime in itself. He was branded a traitor, and not loyal - to a cause he never believed in. Poor Brownie is still recovering from the expensive bottles of Patron being thrown at him by this outraged and abusive family. Chapter 2 - What's Really Important Little did we know at the time, Brownie was unequipped in the form of manhood. This is of great importance to the Luprano family, autistic 13 year old capo's ok - Not having genitals, not ok. And as such, the offer to join their family was revoked (after he declined it) more expensive patron bottles ensued to be thrown at him, they have a lot of them laying around for this specific reason. Unfortunately in the accident a lot of the strippers were injured, including the famous "Miss Brazil". Chapter 3 - Stiks And Sto... Oops, Stinks and Stones. Barry was right, enough had to be enough. The immaturity was a great spectacle to watch for quite some time, but brain cells are important and need to be well-maintained. Sleeping is one great method of maintaining a healthy mind, Honeybadger was asleep upstairs in his bedroom trying to do just that, until he heard lots of loud noises going on downstairs. As the voice of reason, he attempted to regain control of the situation by coming to an agreement via re-negotiation of terms. Frank did not like those terms, not in the slightest. In fact, we learned exactly why in that moment the Luprano family is so keen on their member's having penises - It is so they can make their enemies suck them. Chapter 4 - The Boss of the Boss This about wraps up the end of our great adventure here in the snowy mountain tops of Ash Hill, Honeybadger's name was on the lease of the mansion, so he proceeded to kick all of the Mafia out.The strippers were allowed to stay. Of course the Lupranos, as they normally do, felt this was unfair to them. They deserved nothing but respect, and were determined to threaten the reputation and members of The Neighborhood for the rest of their lives. Their lives were not very long lived though, most disappeared at the observance of their great Leader being embarrassed in front of the whole community. Other's died of severely sensitive skin and heart break. The worst death of them all was none other than Godfather @Frank himself who ironically hung himself in the town hall as a sign of failure. Just kidding, he shot himself in the head - Barry and I later moved him to Town Square and hung him there. Perhaps the Luprano family will rise from the ashes and once again claim its great reputation, but it's doubtful. No other family could ever match up to them, they will never even have more than two members. We can only hope, for all of our sake, this is not true. And other great Mafia families do rise up in their honor and everything they've accomplished. In Loving Memory Of - The Luprano Family

    I didn't understand the purpose of the second module: will there be guns in the first one, and then a SWAT addition in the second one? Or will guns be included only starting from the second one? Same goes for cars, even though I'm a little less interested in those.

    As shown to us during the stream on the 24th of August of 2017. Barbershop concept art. There will be multiple version of interiors of barber shops across the island. But THIS will be the one we'll get to see in the Town Square module. Work In Progress! (default will be black, this one has issues still, brown zippers anyone?)

    There is no application necessary for the Police faction. It's all handled in-game.

    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
