Discord or not you're very well informed..kind of like you're part of the development and i am certain you know exactly how they create all the content. They made all of their vegetation from scratch? Define scratch since you're so well informed? Today there is no developer that does not use SpeedTree for vegetation so i doubt you know what you're talking about and i am telling you that making your customs trees, grasses, plants is easy that is if you really want live looking vegetation on top of that you can do magic with shaders.

I did not see much of functionality or interaction on the videos. Opening/closing doors comes with the engine and no programming is required. Placing object does need programming but you can get a blueprint right off the marketplace that allows you to do that for few dollars. While modeling would be the time consuming part in that amount of time they sure could have tons of models by now. vegetation, that's an easy part. I did not pay attention if there is a day/night cycle and if there is a wind and weather but that's also not hard to get done.

Well then get your hands on UE4, I got my hands on UE4 and Unity and what some folks stated is very true. What was shown to us as far as game play is few weeks of work max. People design levels like that in couple hours, those with experience of course. They are not showcasing any combat system, or physics. You're just running around a level.. Let's be real

While i agree that there is a huge gap between the company and community i still hope they start making wise decisions and before the huge bubble bursts. It reminds me of For Honor from Ubisoft where the community got so fed up with them not telling the truth and constantly breaking things with updates to the point they started to boycott them and not playing, It was very powerful because it's the community behind the reason why this game existed and so bit by bit Ubi was forced to make changed and starting the weekly "Warriors Den" streams informing what's going on. While we can't compare Ubisoft to Asylum we can surly improve communication. Asylum for sure does not have the resources for a weekly streams but we should get some kind of report on what is the progress, The tracker does not reveal much, we all know that and hence why we have such a bursts of negative energy on the forum and people being upset. They seriously need to sit down and have a conference discussion how to tackle this and i am certain they can find a solution.

I think the main issue is to make a limit of access to the minors. You can have tons of content but if you can limit the exposure to the young. Just because majority of young people today are exposed to stuff by poor parenting and total lack of discipline it does not mean we have to follow that pattern. It's totally obvious majority of people who support this game are young and they will flame me for saying this, If someone keeps on telling you it's ok to do something that is completely wrong, at some point you will believe it is true and you won't see the wrong in it, or if you exposed to it long enough it will become as a norm. I don't support the idea because i trying to be a douche, I don't support it because i know it's a wrong thing to do. Majority of people know it's not proper but majority will also not admit to it.

I find that extremely offensive. I mean are you people seriously saying this stuff? Sure promote Sex to 10-16year olds. I mean honestly either half of you have not matured yet or i don't know...from a legal standpoint i am not sure why you're even attempting this?
-
Well don't you think a official statement would not fix up the insane confusion? Do you think anyone is going to believe what you may overheard on some chat on discord? Not trying to go hard on you at all, Just getting absolutely tired of how things are being handled by Asylum. You stated that you trust Asylum with your money, Haven't most of us did? But with constant changing of mind, no transparency and excuses it's very card to continue to trust.

You're an a very example of total arrogance and seriously, being an ostrich does not help here. If your head is in the sand than, sure keep on rolling over.. Major issue with gaming community today is simply just the fact that people "roll over" each time a developer screws up and this has been going on in the gaming industry for a long time. Truth of the matter is that this became a habit and allowed any gaming company to give the community ridiculous turn around and we have been doing nothing but buying into these silly games. Too long we have been patting these developers and simply accepting this ridiculous way of them doing whatever they want. Founded or not, there is money involved, and we should pay attention a lot more to this because it's our money involved..This demands some kind of answer, Not maybe, perhaps, No.. you have to give us an answer. If you mess up, admit it, when there is transparency there is trust. I don't have any trust in this guys because they are not being transparent. I love the idea of this title but there are way bigger values that matter than that and i am not going to break them for anybody, nor should anyone.

It's a great idea. The only problem is not getting it done through the development aspect of it, But the issue of 98% of player base doing it. It would become a fake money fest very quickly since people would do everything they can to cheat and jump through few bars over to have a gain. However...this all can be solved by harsh punishment if cough. Back in the day i had this idea on how to stop 99% of player base playing criminals on life mods..Introduce capital punishment for criminals, multiple count murderers, continuous law breakers..Basically execution..your account gets wiped. Issue was that each time the player would get arrested, lost their on hand founds or property they would run to the bank and get it all back in seconds. This is the only way to force criminals to think twice, high risk high reward or at least think is it really worth it to do what you have planned?

That information is farm from TRUE. Please do not mislead people. The game is far from being done. They are working on releasing a first module called "The Town Square" that will allow players to interact witch each other. There are 2 additional modules planned to be released and 3rd one being the final one to fully complete all of the systems functionality etc.

The whole Identity idea came from Arma 2/ 3 Life Mods and almost every single life mod including Asylum supported granting permission for people to use the vehicles you bought. You were able to either grant permissions via menu or duplicate keys and giving them to your partner. Now the biggest problem comes right from people being complete idiots and sharing these things we people they met 2 minutes ago and then these individuals screwing them over. While there would be some sort of mechanism to get your vehicles/property back this will create a river of crying and complaining on the forums, and millions of accuses how accidentally Joe Shmoe miss-clicked and granted a permission by accident to Ted who took, and stole his vehicle. Some servers supported "Key Ring" idea where you were able with the owners permission a duplicate key to a property or vehicle added to the keying.

Please tell me those aren't the final animations...

I really think this system is at worth taking looked at. From the Physics point of view you can even fall if not jumped correctly that talks a lot about how sophisticated it is. Again i am just a Brillo Pad(scrub) trying to help out. It's not even expansive to purchase and maybe there is a little bit of hope they may consider it. -
I assume pricing and stuff will also be adjustable on the private severs unless that idea has been taken out of the equation but i think they said private servers would also be available. Honestly i would tone it down and make it extremely hard to purchase something such as a mansion or a airplane or a car. I Played on many life mod servers for Arma 2/3 and it always has been a issue where people would grind and buy airplanes the first day and ram into buildings..I guess it's fine if you don't care about true RP.

I care, Saying who cares you speaking for yourself not the whole community. Today a sub par movement is a standard..We're in 2018 not 2004. Also if they need good character movement physics system here you go: Locomotion 3 For Unreal 4 -
I would give them until rest of the week to gather something up otherwise they are digging themselves a grave.

I think everyone can understand that there always can be issues and hiccups. Point is that you promise something and you delay it multiple times and while that is also understood, You better start finding a way to convince the community because frankly just saying "it happens during development" or "we had to rebuild" is not convincing. Rebuilding is not starting from scratch, Again we're in 2018....

I don't think you have a tiny bit of a clue of what you're even talking about. Please read the whole post instead of trolling. I stated i used both, unity and unreal 3d engines and it surly does not take 3 years to create a scene. the TS module...what do you think it is??? All it has is a bit of GUI added to it such as character creation, pause, settings...few models and some shaders. Today you can create a playable descent size map in a month with the tools that we have to our disposal. They actually have an office now and a team to work on this, But it looks more like they just started. I am not saying this is a no go or a fail, i am saying that the amount of time they have spent it seems like they took a long vacation on it or simply not telling us the whole truth. Honestly tell me where do you see game play in the TS module..i seen someone running around the map..If that is gameplay to you then i am stunned.

A long while ago i got excited hearing about this game. I been around Arma 2/3 Life Mods or RP communities and that is where Asylum is coming from as well. I haven't said that much throughout the course of the time, I think once i finally asked questions regarding some sort of an update what is going on the development side. Asylum needs to start getting their stuff together and be more in sync with the community. I seen tons of posts with responses such as "Development takes time", "They have a small team" And even then i still waited patiently. However after watching few videos witch character creation and game play or rather so-called game play i realized for a term of 3 years, including some hicups they had not that match has been done. I mean they do have dedicated artists and coders. Now before someone shouts back and says that i have no idea what i am talking about let me share this with you. I started screwing around with Unreal Engine and Unity, And honestly in a month of time you can get a similar content they have been showing us. Sure you can get a nice working map, invest into few assets such us day/night cycle with full weather, You can't even get a AAA Locomotion System for Unreal Enginethat is truly amazing for character movement and tons better of what we seen in the recent game play streams. Let's be serious, the content shown to use is definitely not something that would take years to develop, We are seeing character movement, character creation and buildings that are decorated and almost no functionality introduced. You can search on you tube and find people decorating a map in 4 hours with stunning results... See this Speed Level Design done all in Unreal 4. The real question is are we being told the truth because i am starting to feel like i am not being told the whole truth. I rather hear the painful truth than sweet lies and that everything is pronto.
-
Well, I stand regarding what i said. Until proven wrong. Honestly it seems like they talked a big game but can't figure out how to put it together. No way in the world by now they don't have anything to show.

People can say all they want and defend. This is being build on Unreal Engine and it's not hard at all to do a quick vid for a showcase to the community. This is almost two years folks. Dig in on youtube and you will see people build fully decorated maps in hours, Yeah they are not kilometers long but in two years they would have been a some sort of a video out showing progress. Look at kingdom come: Deliverance..month after the kick starter they had videos and dev talk showing progress. Anyone can throw in bunch of jpeg's and call it progress and this is all we seen. This is not 1 person working on this..
