Posted January 8, 2018 Hey guys! My name is Christopher, I’m 31, married with 3 kids. I work as a yard man at a concrete plant and do graphic design on the side. My in-game name will probably be Ryan McIntyre unless my wife dictates otherwise as we’ll probably both play. I’m really hoping there will be some type of relationship feature in-game so we’re able to sort of carry over an alter ego of our real life selves. I haven’t been following too long as I’ve only heard about Identity today (via video on Facebook) but I am super intrigued and also confused as to why I haven’t heard about this sooner! The wife and I have games together since we first met (nearly 10 years ago). We started out with Counter-Strike Source then played a lot of San Andreas: Multiplayer mod (specifically the RP servers) and feel like Identity will basically be exactly what we wanted SAMP to be. A sort of real life role playing simulator. The ability to be a cop or criminal or just a regular everyday citizen is amazing along with the other features I’ve read about makes me super excited! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 8, 2018 Welcome to the community, @Xport7 (Christopher)! As far as I know, you'll be able to have 2 characters per server (unsure if private server owners will be able to adjust this or not) so that's one for you and one for your wife! So, if you want to be Ryan McIntyre then Ryan McIntyre it is! In regards to in-game relationships, having a boyfriend or girlfriend will probably be purely role-play dependant, however, I do believe marriage will be a thing. If it's not then there will at least be churches where you can roleplay it happening and you can live together too. Dependent on Governor laws, LGBTQ+ marriages may also be legalised for same-sex and transgender couples to marry too. Regardless of how long you've been following the game, it's great to have you here anyway. Some people are new, some people are older but in the end all that really matters is that we're a community. I'd even go as far to call it a nice big family (just don't get too close to Uncle Jim at Thanksgiving). I think it's absolutely incredible how you both share a love for gaming and play together and I hope you will both be very happy playing this together. I'd also be very interested in hearing what sort of jobs you and your wife would be employed within on the island. Perhaps you might want to create a family store and sell clothing? Or write books together and get them published in the library. Whatever you both decide to do, I wish you both the best! If you haven't already checked out some of these links, they can be very useful! I'm also running for Governor of Identity Island (temporary name until an official one is issued) so I'll sneakily chuck my campaign website in LINKS: FAQ - Made by Motown FAQ Extended - Made by JamesLuck01 The Hamilton Party - Official Website 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You go to church and get married! You can marry the same "sex/ gender" if you want but remember you cannot have babies/ kids. Other players can RP as your grown up kids/ adults etc. Welcome! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 9, 2018 Thank you for the warm welcomes @BrianHamilton And @LuckyDuck The marriage feature would be swell indeed! Brian, I would be happy to support your campaign! Perhaps if we’re unsure of our jobs and you’re lacking a cabinet, we could strike a business relationship. With our previous alter egos, I was Jack Santoro and my wife was Gianna (GiGi) Santoro. We roleplayed as we ran a funeral service/graveyard. While that was fun, really it was a front. As we were one of the greatest mob families during that era. My “henchmen” (if you will) would run the illegal businesses as my dear wife and I would run the legal one. If we needed someone taken out of the picture, the graveyard was a great place to make it happen. With that said, I really hope there may be something similar in Identity. I’m a big geek basically. I’ve been role playing since my early teens as I’ve done a lot in online wrestling efeds. Then moved onto chat RPs and then onto role playing in games (as aforementioned). Hopefully we’ll have better internet by the time the game is released as were currently with hughesnet (satellite internet) and the service is extremely shoddy. Where we live there aren’t many providers at the moment but ones expected to come soon to hopefully save us. With that said, I haven’t played any multiplayer games in a couple of years so it’d be great to get back into it with Identity. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
