(maybe i just couldn't find it) But if there whould be any communication regarding the delay of the module there whouldn't be much threads about "when will the module be released" and "when do you think the module will be released". When it comes to releasedates, the community whould know it if there was any public announcement. (Because the people are hyped for a date) The only thing i knew about was this : But this is no official announcement for the delay. Regarding to this post many people just expected that the module will not be released in march. Well with the latest discussion in discord the module will be deleayed. But an official announcement is still pending and there was no public talk about it as you said (no offense against you, just my result) I knew about it aswell. If you want info about Indentity in video format, check out powergaming 7 and TheDynasty on YouTube. That's where I got told about the delay. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's where I got told about the delay. So TheDynasty has the same Source for this information as everybody else here in the forums (Discord Screenshot). And they didn't had the infos before anybody posted it here. (Don't want to say there channel is bad but regarding to the topic here, the delay of the module, they didn't had the info earlier then this forums) But this doesn't solve a big problem of the developers and the game: The bad communication about the game. I just watched TheDynasty's Video about the delay and first comment is that the game is scam (I got in detail about it i a post above) The people want official information like i already said. (And before anybody get this as hate post about identity i say it again: I tried to empathize with the other peoples thoughts. So please see this post as an well-intentioned advice to the developers and not as a flame post from myself. Thank you) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 22, 2017 I've pledged, & I'm a big supporter of this concept, we've said before that Asylum have made many mistakes and yes, that's because they are new to all of this......BUT. There is a vast world of difference between being new and being amatuer, and I'm sorry but this is starting to look just like that, amatuer. Identity, while being the only kick starter I've pledged to, is not the only game I'm keeping my eye on. Games like War of Rights & Sea of Thieves make this look like small time Joe. Face facts, it's been kick started, we're long past that stage, and it's still not moved up to the next level and that's worrying. I admire them for wanting to keep control, to remain true to their concept, I think everyone here does, but it looks to me that what is needed here is a firm cash investment, investors OTHER than Joe Public. I want Identity to become reality, of course I do, but the clock is ticking and they really need to be showing something other than 3D models by now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They have currently got enough funds through pledges to remain in development till release apparently and if they need to they have investors on hold. They have the apartment customization video, have you not seen it? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was talking about module 1 and why it is complex, module 2 should be the quickest as the devs said the gun mechanics was one of the first things they finished. The racing module will be complex because getting the car mechanics and physics etc right, also they could come into problems that are unforeseen! Edit: forgot I answered your question. @mezdoo @Jinx Quote I've pledged, & I'm a big supporter of this concept, we've said before that Asylum have made many mistakes and yes, that's because they are new to all of this......BUT.

I can say that, you want the game to release as much as me, but you want the devs to not stay true to their concept? That is what this post you just did looks like. I think that would be the worst thing for the game because the concept we see as perfect enough will change to unsatisfactory which in my book is way under what I want the game to be. I like the slow and steady development because the devs want the first impression to be perfect and not sloppy. We don't want a publisher rush them and cause it to be a "No Mans Sky" and I would never compare the two games. I obviously have as much to lose as you and have waited as long as you but if we wait a bit longer it will come and yes we have waited over 2 years for a piece of the game and yet we have nothing of it. That is life of the game development process, a inevitable thing especially when the game only got started at the end of kickstarter and not before. If the game had been started getting developed before kickstarter then we would have it already to play 1 or maybe 2 modules but it was not.

Maybe it's just because it's a boring game. I do NOT want Asylum to give up on their vision, so don't put words into my mouth, at some point this game needs to get out of kick starter and into full fledged development where some actual progress is made BEYOND 3d models. Delays are inevitable, that's part and parcel of the industry now, but projects that began long after Identity did are entering Alpha & even beyond that. I've heard little and seen almost nothing, and we're still talking about the same things we were discussing twelve months ago, that's a lack of progress.

I've heard little and seen almost nothing, and we're still talking about the same things we were discussing twelve months ago, that's a lack of progress. I didn't intend to imply that you wanted the concept ruined, but more that publishers will do when making deals. Identity has a extremely small team of 9 which is i think 4 full time devs and rest free lancers. The publishers were responsible for making a release date and setting a deadline which pushed the developers of no mans sky to release the game not even half finished. The publishers gave them more pressure and also then same with that community giving even more pressure which pushed the game out too quickly. You don't like we are getting very little to no progress shown other than a few 3D models but really, do you want them to push out the first module when they have not completed it to the standard they said it would be just to show that it is progressing?

Posted March 23, 2017 the game may not be 3 years old, but its also older than 2 years and 2 months, this is off their kickstarter Risks and challenges We've invested a lot of our own money to get Identity off the ground but we're going to need your help to get all the way to the finish line. Since we've put together enough content to give you an idea of what we can do and where Identity is heading, we've decided now is the time to shift into top gear. To do this we'll need a little more resources than we have already. so when they started the kickstarter in Jan 5-2015 they had already been working on it to get some content out to the people ( so a good 3-4 months of work). so id say this game could be getting close to 3 years old Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The reason they have delayed it is because thay are now having 1000 player servers. That means that everything is delayed because they have to remake the map and that means that some other things will be delayed because of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The delay is true, although the reason that you're learning it here is that the announcement is scheduled to go out tomorrow. You've just gotten it a little earlier than planned. There's more information involved which you'll be getting details on. There's a lot of good stuff in the delay, too! 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
