I myself am 33 (34 soon), and I honestly hope there's an option for more mature players. I'm not saying that younger players are necessarily immature, though I'm really trying hard to get away from the GTA kill-everything-that-moves mentality that is popular with the younger generation. I'm just hoping to find a more laid back, immersive and RP centric community.

I will be using the mic. Chat communication is such a hassle.

Get my stream going on YT and Twitch, check out my apartment, and then explore Town Square.

Basically this is just an idea I had, and I haven't seen it pop up yet. Many have followed the game for a long time, and many will participate in the modules and the beta. We do get the Founders Hat, but it would be cool to have limited edition items that carry over to release for taking part in the modules and the beta - perhaps one for each module and the beta? It could be a piece of clothing, a wallpaper, rug, poster, etc.

That would be awesome.

I would definitely be open to collaboration.

I'm honestly not sure if there will be an actual stock market, however you are able to privately invest with business owners and work out an arrangement to receive a percentage of their profits.

Welcome to Identity! You'll be able to play the modules (alpha) before beta too, the first of which is due to release fairly soon.

Welcome to Identity. You'll find it easier to navigate and interact if you read the FAQs. Most all of the questions you'll have are answered there. Also, if you do secure beta access, you also get alpha access to the modules as they come out BEFORE the beta. It's awesome!

Imagine owning and breeding horses on a farm - I would love that! Frankly, I'd prefer horseback travel over vehicles any day.

I think you have plenty of time. They haven't even released the latest video, which is supposedly the precursor to the module release. After that, they should be giving us a heads up on the release date.

Lambos!

Like it has been said, I don't believe any server will be wiped after release. No major MMO that I know of ever does this - it would destroy them. Imagine putting months of time and effort into making a successful business, acquiring a house and vehicle, only to have it taken away from you? That would completely destroy your desire to play. Depending on the popularity, new servers may pop up randomly, and you can restart anew there, but a wipe on servers after release is just a very bad move.

I will see what I can come up with, though it will take time. My response alone took a few hours (of course I was occasionally distracted). I do work a lot, though I'll try and have something for you in about a week.

The developers - you know, the gaming experts. The ones who've had the training and education in designing a game and understanding its limitations and weak spots. You dislike the game because player housing is instanced and inaccessible to other players, touting GTA as a better option, and yet GTA does the exact same thing. Classic. This gameplay function is present in all similar games, including GTA, and will most likely also be present in Everywhere when it is released. I know it's sad when the option of completely ruining someone else's gameplay purely for your enjoyment has limits. Technically there will be no early game, midgame, or endgame. This game simulates real life, and like real life, you work hard to earn money and get better things. You move up from an apartment to a house, a bike to a car. Have fun.

The modules are technically alpha. Once all three modules are implemented and tied together, we'll be closer to beta.

I am happy to offer help and guidance where needed. I'm not sure how well being a business owner and campaign manager for the governor would work out, at least not without the suggestion of corruption, but I'll give it a go. I intend to be transparent as a business anyway.

As a well armed American myself, I have issue with being told that I'm only allowed one. Provided you have a clean criminal record and obey the laws, you should be able to own whatever you choose, and however many you are willing to buy and can afford. One option isn't enough, especially in a game like this - I may be killed and my firearm stolen, and because I don't have another to fall back on, I have to wait until I can afford another to be able to protect myself. This leaves me in vulnerable position. This also doesn't address gun ownership clearly. Is this protection limited to private property only? Private property in this game is the safest of all places, and protection in your private home isn't something that is really required - it's out in public that it is needed. My home is safe, my business and activities outside of my home are very dangerous. Will open or concealed carry be allowed in public places? Another question revolves around whether you support stand-your-ground or duty-to-retreat. Am I allowed to defend myself when I need to, and what will be viewed as justifiable homicide in the case where I'm forced to defend myself? I plan to own a business, and will regularly be in public places as well as my place of business. Will I be allowed to defend my business property as well? In America we are a Constitutional Republic. Elected officials are elected to represent the people, and do so within the laws of the constitution. We also get to vote in or out the bills we support or reject. What you're suggesting is quite the opposite of this. Yes, you did state that "voting will still exist," however you also stated that "the leader gives the final yes or no." Basically you're offering the illusion of choice though there really isn't any. The people may vote in favor of something, and you are within your rights to turn around and reject it because you as an individual don't support it - a total dictatorship. The same may happen in reverse, say a tax rate increase - the people vote to reject the increase, though since you are actually the one to decide what is accepted or rejected, you turn around and accept and implement the tax rate increase that everyone else rejected. This is rather distressing to think about. Also, you don't currently have a clear set constitution defining the laws you claim you will abide by. While it does seem you are developing something as you speak with your citizens, learn and grow, it's difficult to support someone claiming to abide by a constitution that isn't agreed upon and one that changes frequently. What I agree to support you for may be wiped away tomorrow. Is healthcare something that will be forced on the populace, or will it be an option? Will you be fining people for not purchasing it, similar to the AHCA fiasco? Also, who exactly insures this healthcare, the government? You won't even have any competition to compete with, and you'll basically be forcing your citizens to buy your product. Being forced to do something never works out well - you need to provide the option and not force it. I will be running a business and will require resources to make my business work. Does this mean that if my business isn't part of your 'central plan' I can effectively be snuffed out due to a lack of resources? If say I intend to make high quality materials and clothing, but a competitor plans to make cheap, mass produced clothing, they'll be entitled to the resources rather than me? I don't have an issue with using resources wisely, however to monopolize and pull resources from people that you don't deem worthy of them isn't something I'm a fan of. I have issue with government own businesses, especially when these businesses are necessary and have a guaranteed market. You're basically taking the best businesses for yourself and declaring that no one else is allowed to compete with you. To build a healthy economy you need competition to ensure prices stay low and aren't stagnant. Allowing competitors with the knowledge and experience to make these businesses work will help the economy as a whole. Again the 'central plan' is mentioned, and you claim that businesses have to follow your particular plan for production and hiring. It sounds more like you plan to run a large corporation rather than lead the people. The people should not be treated like just another resource at your disposal. Also, you state that you will create laws, regulations and directives to enforce the central plan, however as you've stated previously, the people really won't have any say in what laws, regulations and directives are implemented. I can definitely see offering incentives to meet the needs you set forth, leading people to be more inclined to follow your plan and help you meet your goals, but outright forcing them to will only create an angry populace. If people are forced to adhere to your vision, and not allowed the freedom to follow their own plan, you'll have a lot of bankrupt businesses and many citizens moving to find somewhere that allows them to. Again, I have problems with the government destroying what it deems is unnecessary or unworthy - it literally makes me shiver. I don't need my government telling me what I do or do not need. If there is consumer demand for something that is legal, this demand should be allowed to be met - you'll still profit off of the taxes accrued through these businesses. A shadow economy or black market should never develop for legal products, and is a sign of a very sick economy. Not only will it negatively impact your approval and your economy, but you will also lose the ability to profit off of the demand. You're also claiming that you will "assign" people to specific jobs and demand that they do them. The only people who can do that are your employers and military leaders. The people are neither your employees nor your soldiers. However, if you give your people something worth fighting for, they'll do it willingly. Again, incentives should be used to lead people to particular jobs, not a government mandate. These incentives can be anything from tax cuts, startup funds, monthly incentives, housing assistance, free insurance coverage, etc. If you want to be truly successful, you need to lead people where you want them to go, not herd them there like a bunch of cattle. While I agree that the 10% tax across the board is probably the fairest way, and I really don't even have issue with the additional 10% tax on businesses, but how exactly will you ensure that everyone pays their fair share? Do you have access to income and earning records, or will you just take people at their word? Identity doesn't have an IRS as far as I know. I applaud your harsh stance on criminal behavior, though I don't believe it will deter anyone from committing to a life of crime. Criminals clearly won't be paying their taxes. Will the money or product recovered from these criminals be returned to their original owners, or will they be placed in the government funds? Will the fines charged to the criminals also end up in the government funds like taxes? If you've stuck with me this long, you're definitely committed. You did ask me to point out the specifics that bother me, and I did so. If I have a question or concern about something, odds are others do as well. I honestly didn't mean to rip apart your policies, and I apologize if it seems that way as that was not my intention. I am very politically active in real life and truly enjoy political discussions, so I do tend to get carried away. I realize that this is just a game, but I am still just as passionate about fictitious politics as I am real politics. You are definitely one of the first politicians I noticed. You are very active and responsive, are open to change and new ideas, and that is a big bonus. You also accept responsibility for poor choices and have accountability that others lack, and that's another big bonus. You also have a well developed and organized political plan that is easy to follow, and that helps greatly when you're attempting to get a feel for the candidate. Again, I apologize if I came off as harsh in my criticism. I tried to address my concerns as respectfully as possible, though I may have failed in this. Provided some of my questions are cleared up, and perhaps some changes are made, you may well have my endorsement.

No one but the developers really know, and even they aren't sure. They are getting close, though every time someone suggests a possible time frame, it's extended. They will release a new video before the module, so once that happens it should be close. You should have some warning before it comes out.

I'd love something like this, especially with all of the customization options available.

I love listening to these, they get me really hyped up.

My plans tend to change, though I seem to have committed myself to business. With so many options available, and not knowing exactly what each one entails, it was hard to set my sights on just one. I'll likely try just about everything (legal options only), though my ultimate goal is to run a successful business. I have little in the way of business experience, however I look forward to figuring it out.

I can survive on Ramen for a few weeks.

It'll probably be similar to the APB Reloaded customization seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDWV79wg_N4

Welcome to Identity! This game does have a lot of promise, and I can't want to see what happens with it. The best part is that although the developers are responsible for its creation, the game will be what the players make it - the ultimate sandbox.
