I name it as u did, because i tough u gonna understand it, but not... U meant they pass it to verification process right? So do it 3 days earlier so steam page is up in date they said will be? Because u have strange way of understanding what mean "published" it mean available to public, and its not.

So if they want to keep the word, publish it 3 days before and all will be good? So stop spreading false information because none of this happen

What? Nothing is published... I checked my steam, no identity in my library, in case something bugged out on my side i search store, no idenitity, what are u on about? Don't want to be a dick but how many times i have to repeat same thing MONTH ALREADY END, STEAM PAGE IS STILL NOT PUBLISHED, and u guys spreading false information like its already done... no, steam page is not there, nobody know when it will show up and how long since that they will finally release TS, u want to defend them, do it if u want, but stop spreading bullshit in every single post because same thing happen as with everyone deadline they gave, delay.

Lol, u said "they delivered what they said" which isn't true because steam page is not there until end of October as they said

But game is not on steam?

What u are on about? First u told me info is available everywhere, now there is no info? And what's mean "when they are about ready"? Seems like u want to say something but u don't know what u talking about...

Lol, I'm not asking how they will do it, I want to know what coming when, so if u have a link to roadmap please share it with me.

Thats why its a bit fishy advertising, it's showed like social module is done and now we moving to swat... there is no clear roadmap, list of features to finish each module. It would be good if devs can clarify whats coming when etc. It would be pretty bad if they just leave town square like that and started working on swat leaving players with nothing to do in TS...

It looks nice, like really high quality job. What bugs me is why there is already "SWAT coming next" while only tiny bit of social mode is done?

Oh yes? U are another person that saying is a game dev, so maybe share some of your work, because it becoming strange, so many game devs in this forum, and u know i also did some courses in udemy, play with unity and unreal, modkits etc so probably i could name myself game dev too. And my comment was about that i follow a lot of "in development" games that are done by small or even 1 man team so i can imagine how long it take to "walk into the store to buy 1 shirt" and it not taking months of work for ~20 man team.

Are u even serious? Months for "buying a shirt in store"? Is that your first "early access" game u follow? Or u are another person that exactly know how identity is done? Won't even start about "answering silly questions"

U should read the tweet on first place before acting like they already released the TS. "...You won't be able to install it just yet..." "...Town Square will show up in your Steam library the second we publish it..." Be prepared for at least another 2-3 weeks of waiting

I really don't mind to wait, but what is going on here is beyond a joke. I wouldn't mind all that waiting if i know there is a lot of work done, but did u seen videos from game? There is nothing to play, barely few working buildings, karaoke? Might try it once or twice? Newspaper? What u want to write about if nothing's happening? Painting? Bike shop with 1 bike? Apartments? How quick it becomes tedious to customize it all over again? Chess game? Nope, it's just thing to move figures around, no rules, no turns etc. U can't really call it a chess... So after so long, they create barebones frame of game and stuck with few small bugs for 3 months? Can't imagine when they want to pull full release, maybe 10 years from now, but most likely never because of funds and bad reputation. And u know what is most sad? They do fuck all. As soon as they know initial TS release has to be moved, they should pull all the resources and energy to finish it ASAP, every work in the world is same, there is time u have to do overtimes, weekends etc because busy time, everyone like to hangout with friends and family, have lot of free time, but life isn't fair, here a lot of peoples treat them like victims. Seriously? They have good money, doing what they like for living, in their own company, in their home (Canada) is there better career u can have? In development they even have a word for that because its so common, it's called crunch, yet they just fuck all and enjoy money they get, finding more and more stupid excuses to push release over and over again, don't care what's going on here. Sorry but it's worse attitude ever, whatever u are building house's or developing computer games.

Ye, really their approach of development is completely out of the planet earth, "do not expect anything, seat quiet and wait until we decide to give u some scrubs" Now we can compare them to SCUM devs, they released "unfinished" game, but thousands of peoples enjoy it, they showing dedication and working their asses of, patched the game 5 times in first week of release, working weekends to make it better, communicating with players everywhere (steam form, reddit) which end up in having healthy community. Identity? Can't see any of these, just pushing it back after being ages behind schedule, silly excuses, playing dead on the forum like we talking about someone else game, dividing community, repeating same formulas over and over again about how much time development takes, how they can't find peoples to work on it, how much money it cost to make a game etc. Really, nobody set their dates, funding needed to finish the project, nobody tell them what, when and how to Do, they did and now it looks like they just fuck all instead of showing dedication to pull this project. Ye, enjoy your weekend, Canadian day, Quinn day, holidays and whatever u have there, hope enjoyed that money Asylum

U assumed it gonna be "finished" after release? I just explained in previous post that excuses they making have absolutely no sense, bug free alpha? First impression? They already made few "first impressions" with delayed release, clunky "gameplay" video, vogue task tracker, and in the end they show real TS that seems to be very small and empty, very few features they never show because of "streamer mode", "that doesn't work yet", "that shop is in works", "animations are still not final", etc. Let's be real here, can it be worse? And I'm not pushing on release, because I know there will be nothing to do, nothing that can bring my attention for more than 2h, no real gameplay, until they expect me to watch movies in game, or twitch streams, which is laughable because I can do it without that game so i dont care anymore when it will be available, im just amazed with lvl of delusion from some peoples right here, believe any word from peoples that lied them in face multiple times before

Idk what kind lvl of delusion is that First impression? Already done, shady project that never coming out, so much time and money and so little done... if somebody think peoples change their minds because almost empty TS gonna be released in a bit better state than other EA games is wrong. Everyone gonna look behind and "vote" biased on that, rage after release will be huge. Bugs free alpha? Who in the world aiming to release experimental build without bugs? It's hilarious, AAA titles from under best studios after years of development have lots of bugs in the beginning, thousands of peoples playing will always test it better and quicker than few programmers. Never gonna happen, i can bet now that TS going to be bugged and unpolished

It's silly since long time, really if they can't fix one ducking issue trough 2 months, I can only imagine how this game gonna looks like a year later from now... Lets be real, this game never gonna happen, or if it happens it will be nowhere even remotely near to what was advertised. After 3(?) year's, it's not even computer game, there is no gameplay, not even basic animations are done... Its just hilarious to listen only more and more silly excuses like "game development takes time" they have more money and time than they need to release TS with valid gameplay, but instead of pulling all the effort to make it happen they fuck all and continued do same thing as last 3 years. Seriously, couldn't care less about that bunch of stoners, it's far below average lvl of development and project management. Complete amateurs

I think peoples forgot about 1 important thing. Nobody would be angry if we wait for real game now, peoples are mad because we give them a lot of money and after 4 years we waiting for very very small chunk of something that maybe one day becomes a computer game. Tbh it's not a game, it's PlayStation home 2, there is nothing to do in TS module. On top of that they putting 0 effort to even release that "PlayStation home 2" ASAP, they are year out of schedule and taking all holidays, days of, weekends instead of even trying to pull TS immediately, enjoying the money we give them before delivering something that's worth part of price we pay for. Lack of communication, dev blogs are gone as well, dev streams are tedious and not showing any progress, they keep talking about meaningless stuff thats planned for full release instead of showcasing incoming TS release. None of devs showing up on forum and community manager seems to be clueless about his job. They don't have enough programmers and map designer isn't hired yet too. Is there any thing to be optimistic about?

No, he said 3, + ceo occasionally programing So basically 3.5 programmer, and i don't really care where they looking for, if they can't find few programmers for years there is clearly something wrong, and seems like money are not the problem because they still splashing cash for 20 artist. Plain bullshit, u can't make any game with 3 programmers and we can clearly see where they are after 4 years, this game will never happen if they fuck all for so much time trying to find anybody to work

Not surprised at all, i said that before that last few tasks going to take longer than previous 50 because task tracker is just comfortable tool to manipulate release date. Also Sorry but 1 programmer for 3 years and 3 of them now + 20 artists isn't a way to develop any game

Yet, only TS part of the map is done, and making a map is just making a scene, idk what u trying to say here. seems like lot of peoples trying to defend this project don't even know what they talking about

Few days before i was almost sure they not releasing dev blog yet because maybe they will launch TS in the beginning of the month, but another week past and there is no sign of any dev blog or any hope of TS release? there will be any blog post this month?

u can take a look at here for example, its 4th video on youtube after searching "identity game", first from non dev channel on youtube

just look at the comments under YouTube videos about identity, lots of peoples actually saying they want to get the game but they lose interest because it taking to long, or game play videos not really showing anything playable after all time past kickstarter, than u can only imagine how many friends or other peoples who read that didn't pledge, i would say its really a lot.
