Posted April 24, 2016 (edited) Hello guys my name is carlie and my steam name is charlieboy (profile pic is a zombie) I am looking forward to identity so much but at the back of my mind i feel it could be ruined by the kids. Dont get me wrong im not bashing the kids here im just saying alot of the time they dont know how to play by the rules. so what do we do? we go round looking for a white listed serverwhere theres no kids and it has about 30 people on it and unless you go to a big city or set up some sort of RP event then you dont see anyone for hours im basing this information from my time playing dayZ and arma life mods of course and identity may be different but for now we just dont know. so i will be setting up a private server but im not going to do it unless i have enough people to populate the server in a way that everyone who plays will have fun and be able to experience everything identity has to offer. YOU DO NOT NEED TO HELP PAY FOR THIS SERVER AND ANY DONATIONS WILL NOT BE REWARDED AT ANY TIMES. So lets say we get 300 people to join the server? Here are the two things i would like to talk about until we know for sure what identity will bring. RPING. Everyone who joins the server must stick to there character. If you dont want to RP then just act as yourself and give your character your name. I would like to have a mix of people in the group to suit everyone so light and hardcore RPers all welcome. POPULATION. I would like to have a balance on the serve i mean we cant all just be cooking meth in the swamp right? If we did that where would the fun be? So here are the numbers i thought of myself and please let me know what you think COPS 75 criminals 75 civilians 150 If anyone has ideas based on facts we know are planned for identity then please be sure leave a comment. I will set up a steam group for those who are interested just add me on steam from the details above and il inv you to the steam group. http://steamcommunity.com/groups/IdentityCommunity Once you are in the group we can start to make up the numbers of who wants to do what ie cop, criminal, civilian, company owners and all that stuff. Thanks hope to see you all in the group very soon Edited April 24, 2016 by charlieboy TYPO 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 24, 2016 Lot of potential here, if you rake in some serious RPers then this could really take off 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But the main worry about it is that it would be a pointless server without atleast 200 people or 100 people to populate the whole island. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True, bad numbers are the one thing that can make even the best server crash and burn, I know from first hand experience. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I private message anyone I have thought to be good enough, but obviously I haven't asked for a answer until release of the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
