I believe the best part of your post is the part I quoted. I agree, an ETA is necessary and they need to stick by it regardless of bugs. No game, in the history of gaming, has ever been released 100% bug-free. I hope they complete it soon, the main thing I'm afraid of is if they take too long someone is going to copy their idea and release a game before them. If that happens, everybody will jump ship off Identity and go to the completed one. We live in a world of entropy, focusing on near-perfection on the first release is naive, especially in a world where we have limited lifespans.

There are no police in Town Square.

Their meatballs have tried.

EmergeNYC looks promising, however, they should know never to pop the hood of a burning vehicle.

It is possible, and I would prefer a realistic medical system. Thanks for this, hopefully, the developers can use it as a blueprint later on in development.

The reason the developers have decided to op out of the children sector is for legal issues. Let's say for example that sex was a mechanic of the game. Do you really want to deal with pedophiles or child-killers? Adults dying may seem funny or at least somewhat normal, but children getting caught up in it can take it to a whole different level. Now, it is most likely that in the post-full game release that mods will allow child characters, but they are also probably going to have several restrictions on the criminal sector. After full-release, there will be a mod option. If you really want that, you can have it on a private server after building those mods yourself. Now, if you have to mute everyone, wouldn't that destroy the realism? This is the third large forum post that wouldn't die on this subject, so I am going to repeat what I have done before. @LuckyDuck please kill this forum.

The $15.00 citizen package has always not had access to the modules. Buy the Founder package immediately before the prices change, unless of course, you mind the long wait.

If the town square is not completed by the end of the next week, I agree with you completely. One task should not take two weeks, with a full team of programmers. If the task is that difficult, skip it to be added in as an update later.

I think this is a good possibility as a voluntary method, you should make an online generator for people who need that extra help designing their characters.

They don't, and never have, updated it on weekends.

Welcome aboard, Se7eN. There is one task remaining on the first module, so you got here in perfect timing. Welcome to the community, this is only the beginning.

Because this game has criminal activity. Because I do not want to spend the entirety of my law enforcement career over a "he-said she-said" rape or assault crap which will take more time to investigate than the jail sentence. Knowing you lot, even if the developers did include a sexual feature, although they have made it very clear they would not from the start... the same people would then be chanting, "make it involuntary, add a rape feature." Where does it end?

Because it opens a whole can of worms and not everyone is comfortable with that stuff.

Identity Lore involves the banning of all aircraft from the airspace surrounding the island. It is a no-fly zone, so no aircraft. Ever.

Discord.

The forum account is separate from any Identity purchases. They could easily have purchased the pass and been a guest on the forum until now, but can't be too careful.

Remember, its most likely you both won't even be in the same server. (It is currently unknown how cross-server organizations will work.) Remember, though, no meta-gaming and everyone will be happy.

In the full game, after the racing module is completed, yes. Will it be a game mechanic? Doubtful, as in real life it would be illegal so it would be up to the underground to enforce the rules.

Identity RPG Characters These are subject to change and are not final.

Identity wants to focus on a smaller, less militarized average life for most Americans. I myself am glad they aren't going to add these additions, as they would make civilian life very difficult.

The reason the developers have decided to limit the options of criminals is to give them a better chance on the streets. This keeps law enforcement from using sting ops, drones, and APCs.

Just remember, explosives and stealing law enforcement weapons will not be a function of game-play.

On a public server, you will lose all money and inventory on your person and may or may not pay a hospital fee upon revival.

They haven't only been working on the Town Square all this time. If they had, your argument would have some weight. The development of groundbreaking games takes considerable time. The Town Square is taking longer than I hoped, but that is because they are only putting a few of their developers on the task. The other developers are working on other aspects of the game so that when the modules are done there will be considerable progress completed on the rest of the game. If you want a refund, take it; but I would wait at least till the end of the month for Town Square.
