I know, because at the base, this is a cop vs criminal game. And you're right, the apartment video says "Identity insider". I still consider it as a tiny bit of game play but that doesn't really matter. If we go back to the crime video, I wonder if people are over reacting about it. It didn't leave me frustrated as it did to some others. But it all depends on the expectations of each one of us. But I certainly expect Asylum to have a better looking video next. I still remember back when they only had a few hundred of thousands worth of pledge. I'm unsure what's restraining them from hiring more staff, but I know that right now they want more developers. Maybe it's because they were scared to go over the budget? You could ask the question to @Beach_Ball (he'll certainly respond on the Discord if you DM him: Beach_Ball#4434). Then he might ask it in one of the next stream to Paratus. In response to the animation, I didn't say it but most of the placeholder animations were motion captured from it was said in the Twitch clips. I was looking at the crime video in slow motion, the jogging animation did look a bit weird. But I can't really pinpoint where the problem is. It might have to do with how it blends all together, with each foot landing. But they definitely won't let the animations at the state it was at the moment the crime video released. Also what do you exactly mean by "not so good production"? Because in your poll #2, it mentions something about more content of less quality. I would assume it would be about the video in general, like less focused on smaller details to be able to show more. I'm not sure if you also meant like quality of the content being showcased in game, because that would contradict people's opinion about the video (mostly animations). You didn't leave much choice on that question though.

We'll see how it goes. I'm as excited to play this game as Motown and Paratus are. So it'll take a really big mistake for me to reconsider my support for Asylum. A video that isn't well done is not one.

Yeah stuff about trolls and criminals are more for the cops and moderators. Yes you'll be able to mute everyone if you wish so. There's also a stress system in place to prevent/reduce RDM/VDM. How it'll work with vehicles, I'm not entirely sure, but I assume their vehicle will take more damage while the innocent players will barely be affected. Of course you'll still be hit though.

It's the exact same thing. In here we say "tie wrap".

You can punch someone until he gets knocked out, and tie him with tie wraps to move him. I'm not sure if you can push him in the sea. What would be the point of doing that anyways? You may try to steal their boat (if they are unlocked I believe) but you can't have it permanently because it's not yours. It'll eventually disappear after some time if the owner logs out. But now that you asked that, I think I'll avoid going in the sea. I prefer being on the road actually so.

I can't tell if you're mocking Asylum about their latest video. But the one million is their budget, that's not what they spent. Also the animations were "quickly" made, and ironically they had troubles with those before they could make it work. According to one of the streams, the animations aren't all that hard to make, but it's to make them blend together so it looks smooth.

The governor won't be able to do anything about trolls. If it's not a crime, you can't really do anything about it. Any examples you thought about @AKirish907 ? The only thing I could think about is someone "stealing" resources before you get them. Other than that, there's only childish/immature behavior perhaps.

The big mistake was that the charge for making the video was mostly on John's shoulders. Big source of disappointment from what I can see, but I don't make a big deal about it because I know they have something much better coming soon in less than four weeks. It's called the Town Square video which was long awaited. Just wait until they surprise us with it.

Do I care about Asylum's mistakes? Nope, I'm still hyped for what's coming in less than four weeks: video + module. Also At the time I'm writing this, I'm watching Jade77's stream.

So for the map, this is the post I've seen: Also for the real estate agency, you'll need a lot of money to buy a decent amount of houses. It would be unfair to buy them all though.

It is, but I've heard it's outdated and we should get an updated one in a soon future.

You can kidnap people, but you'll have to down them before trying to put tie wraps. But one thing for sure, I won't let you try to do it on me.

They don't "just" do props and brainstorm. Even though there's only a very few videos showcasing the game, it still shows that they've done some back end stuff too. If you wait four weeks, you'll be able to see more videos (mostly community), if what we have isn't enough of a proof that the game does exists.

It's been already proposed and answered multiple times. Will they add airplanes and helicopters? No. Will they add trains and buses? Yes.

This is a suggestion for the forum rather than the game itself. I've noticed the absence of a button to quickly reach the top of the page. Small workaround for that would be to add "#top" at the end of the URL of the page. But it would be more convenient to have a visible button on the bottom right corner for example that will do the same thing.

I'm pretty sure you'll be able to sit and relax, fish for food, and some yachts will have TVs, storage, possibly a few other things you can interact with. There will be various models or course.

Hey, I sent a message to Brandon and hopefully he should be able to ask that question during the next stream. I basically asked about what type of raw material can be mined, then if the mine shafts are a high risk/stress zone.

I've never ever talked about how faith by itself would help Asylum and their project. When I first found out about Identity, I was interested with the values of it, immersion, changing the definition of RP. Then I pledged for it, so that means I give my support for the development of this game. Even though the module isn't out yet, I still gave my feedback on a few things about the game. I'm fully aware this is not a triple A company behind Identity, in fact this is the second large project they're working on (you can check the Asylum Entertainment website). The reason why I invested into this project is because I want to see it succeed. I'll put my heart into it. And I'm wondering, did you get a lot of bad experiences with scams, or even games that never came out? I understand, some people are cautious and really want to be sure that this game is definitely true. In fact, there's quite a lot of fake stuff in the Internet sadly... But if you look at the amount of details they put on those "things and stuff", and putting them together. Also it surprises me you haven't mentioned about any videos at all. For now, what you think is up to you and your judgement and past experiences in the gaming industry. But what I know is that one of the big moments will be about Town Square (video and module). I strongly doubt that they would just sit in their chair just to make fake assets, they are ambitious people who love gaming and role play. I've even chatted with Sean (Motown) and a few moderators in the Discord voice chat. They are really nice people to talk with. Also, Brandon (Beach_ball) came and asked me one time if I had questions for the stream, which is very nice in my opinion. Asylum is very implied and do listen to the community. I'm not saying they're doing it 24/7, because of course they are very busy sometimes. It was said multiple times in the Developer blogs that John wanted to make a video showing crime, shooting and arrest. The Town Square video will come before the module and will be much better. They're not going to tell any estimated dates to avoid over hyping people and plans to release it when they're ready for it.

Is there really people who truly believe Town Square will release in summer? So from what it has been said, it will actually release on the 21st, but the 1% chance stands for server issues that might occur. They have said to work very hard to meet that deadline, and there's only one way to know if that'll be the case, to wait until the 21st (or perhaps the 22nd for certain areas, because time zones).

The Town Square module (module one) will let you meet other players and add them in your contact list. You'll also be able to visit a few places to see how it looks like, and I also believe you'll be able to mess around in the apartment and garage you'll get from your pledge. You won't be able to drive your vehicle, but you'll be able to customize the apartment for free. But please note that when the full beta will release (after all three modules), your apartment will be reset to its original state.

You'll have a few choices of body to chose from. But the issue with height and weight is to make every piece of clothing fit onto that character, and that it doesn't cause problems with animations.

^ Joke of the year 2018. Considering the assets were placeholders, it still looks much better than the crappy cartoon graphics of Fortnite.

A Youtuber have shown the speedometer working, as when he zoomed in and slowed down the video, you could see the red needle moving. For the odometer, that would be a cool feature to add, so you can brag about the distance you drove to your friends.

Welcome @Lunatic01 ! Hope you'll enjoy it as much as I will. I already pledged 250$ so you can tell I'm really hyped to play this game. You'll need to pledge 30$ or higher to access the Town Square module which will be released on the 21st of March. There's no ETA for the other modules, beta and full release. When the full game will be out, I'll be a driver for a delivery corporation. Outside that job, I'll probably also do road trips, other jobs that won't put me at risks, and meet new people.
