Floor 3: A completely empty room with no windows. A single man sits on the floor with a bowel of cereal

I'm afraid you've posted this in the wrong section, @HairyGrenade or another mod may be able to move it to Q&A where it is more appropriate. But to answer your question; early access will be available on Steam (Not sure about mac)

So, how much do we know about the cities and towns present in Identity? Like, their names, size, locations on the island, etc? I've seen other people mention names and such but I've never heard myself.

I think it would be good to have second hand shops where players can either donate or sell their unwanted goods (ie clothes, furniture, books). The store would then sell that to the public. This just ensures players don't accumulate too many items in their homes and can add an extra life like feature to the game

So with everyone making specialised stores I was wondering, will there be department stores in Identity? (player owned of course) These sell many different types of product and are quite large.

@Motown Any light you could shed on this topic?

I think what will happen is that the developers will own official servers but players will be able to rent their own to customise. And yes, I expect there will be a Brazilian community in Identity (there'll be Sth. American or Portuguese speaking servers I expect)

Welcome to the forums! I'm from New Zealand and am a currently broke just-finished-high school student

Welcome to the community!

Good to see this sort of thing happening in Identity! I hope to see your business work out in game

Can anyone recomend me (and the community) games that are similar to Life is Strange?

I remember someone (a dev I think) that there will be different variations of phones and computers. So hopefully we'll be able to see shops like this in Identity!

I'd like to think you would. @JamesLuck01 should be able to share some enlightenment on the topic for you!

Possibly yes, But I was meaning places more like Kmart, The Warehouse and Farmers (both department stores here in New Zealand)

So seeing as players can create their own furniture, do you think it'll be possible to create a furniture making business? Where players design, build and sell their furniture? It seems like you can by watching the house decor video

My suggestion is that every so often a market is held in-game at the town square. This would be players coming together with basic shelters and tents to showoff and sell their products - a way to attract new customers and earn extra revenue! Also, there could be street festivals and parties. This could include film and music festivals.

The suggestion is that players can operate their own 'consumer' trucks. By this I mean food trucks, Ice cream trucks and trucks that sell merchandise and such out the side of the back - aka a mobile shop. These can allow the player to move their shop to markets easily, to just RP as a Mr Whippy and just for a bit of fun really. Example of 'consumer' merch truck; -Also players could own the classic hotdog and etc stands, probably using an AI to sell the goods because of the small job, but it would make the owner money.

Already suggested, but i'll add to it. It'd be cool to allow shops and businesses to create their own website to; Showcase and sell their products and merchandise Place orders with shipping companies Advertise job vacancies which players can apply at Display contact details and addresses There could even be an online yellow pages for easy access to addresses and phone numbers. Business owners could also create advertisements for online use. This would cost money (probably paid to the server) and would vary in size.

I'd of thought it would be R16 (at least here in NZ) cause most games with violence, drugs, swears are rated that. The only reason GTA V is R18 is because of sex, which isn't present in Identity (sadly )

I actually never realised you could do that *noob alert*

Yup! There will be cellphones in game! Along with apps and features to use. I remember hearing that there will be different types of cellphones you can purchuse, ie Iphones, Androids, nokia bricks, actual bricks etc

Should be a server selector right? I'd assume that companies would be on just one server unless you expanded, remember servers have 200-500 players so you won't miss out on much *Triggered communists inbound*

Hahah. But yeah i'm hoping for sculptures, even statues for the garden maybe

To add; There could also be beach festivals, holiday festivals/ parties (ie 4th of July fireworks, Christmas parties). Also as mentioned by someone else we could have farmers markets, as well as arts and craft fairs and food festivals.
