Thomas Hetch for Dictatorship!

@ThomasHetchWhat do you have to say for yourself?

I don't exactly what the details are, but I'm pretty sure that drugs, such as meth, will give you an energy boost, but will also make your character dependent on that drug. That's what I know.

That's what I was thinking. I plan on being a graffiti writer myself in Identity, and I think having illegal spots to paint would make my Identity-life just a bit more interesting.

Will there be internet cafes?

Excellent. Thanks for the speedy reply!

The first town module is expected to come out Q1 2017, and the beta is also expected to come out early 2018. And yes, if you pledge 30 dollars or more towards the game, you'll have access to the town modules + beta.

Will there be designated spots on highways and bridges?

How far in-depth will defecating be? Will your player grunt when they poop? Will there be fart sound effects? Will I be able to admire my masterpiece? These are all important questions that need to be answered!

Hi there, WhosYourDaddy! Welcome to the forums! Glad to see that you're interested in this game. Also nice to hear that you're spreading the word about this game, it's really what this game needs at the moment. I hope you enjoy your time here.

I think having abandoned locations as places to paint would be nice. Painting under bridges, or painting on a busy highway would be pretty fun. You'd be on high alert, dodging cops and vigilante civilians.

Lag - a nuisance that's common with multiplayer experiences. Here's my question to the developers or anyone who has an answer, How will the developers combat lag? I ask this as in order to be fully immersed in a game like Identity, everything has to run smoothly. I feel that if you're playing Identity, and you see a player lagging (player character skipping animations, player character performing laggy animations etc etc.), it would kind of alter the experience in a not-so-good way. If anyone can provide an answer, it would be much appreciated.

I don't see anything wrong with this idea. I think having a backer-only area as you suggested would be pretty cool. You'd get your hands (or cursor) on screenshots and updates before the general public does! Although it wouldn't do anything for me as I'm not a backer, but that's cool with me.

I'm not sure if anything like this has been suggested, but I'll post this anyway. I was thinking - how about adding text-to-speech in the game for players who don't have mics. So that when players talk via chat, an artificial voice of sorts would come out of the player's character's mouth, so it's not just plain'ol text. I'm not sure if this feature would function properly, but I think it should be considered.

Alrighty. Thanks for the reply.

Will grass mesh and fire particles be as realistic as shown in this video?

The beta isn't coming out for a while, I'd say late 2017 or early 2018. Town Modules will make up for that in the meantime. However; Town Modules will only be available for those who pledge $30 or more towards the game. So if you plan on playing the game early, I suggest you pledge to get access to the Town Modules.

Interesting business you have here. I hope y'all do well!

I've scoured through the forums, but I haven't found a question that's quite like this. When I create a character, would I have to create a character for each individual server, or would it just be one character for all servers?

I think my character is going to be in his late-teens to early-twenties, skinny build, kinda punk but not too flamboyant. He'll be into alternative things such as torn skinny jeans, probably tattoos and whatnot. He'll be kind of a loser, working a minimum-wage job at a fast food joint. He'll be respectful of those he lives with, probably on the quiet side. Overall, I think he'd be a cool dude to hang around with.

There are going to be gun stores, but since money is going to be valued realistically, getting your hands on one is gonna be quite hard.

Ah, and all this time I though Roseport was the largest city.... Thank you!

Which one will be the largest?

Oh, alrighty. Got em' mixed up it seems. Lol.

I think they said somewhere that refueling your car would be a thing,
