    I know there's going to be some people who think this doesn't deserve to be here, however I think some of these things would be pretty funny to see in iddntity and opens new possibilities SWAT somebody, would be really interesting if you can do fake 9-1-1 calls on people inside of identity, one reason would be the test police response times before doing bank robberies or drug deals, to people's reaction to see a bunch of cops randomly pull up on him with guns out screaming to get on the ground Number 2 be able to hide in trash cans and other crops such as behind bushes and down alleyways jump out and scare people, also be kind of interesting if you could cause heart attacks by doing this in identity Number 3 do magic tricks and if you do enough of them and become a magician pull pranks on people who own shops in people's houses, could do things such as make shop owners think that you stole things or go to someone's house and hide a radio or a laptop on them, Those are just some basic things I think would be pretty funny to see an identity and be able to do to people, what do you guys think about these and what are some that you guys would suggest? Also sorry for any things that may look odd in some of the texts I'm currently on my phone doing talk-to-text and it's been kind of iffy

    I know this is a long shot, but hear me out. Now, almost every single game nowadays will have a players name tag above their head or something to identify them by. This isn't very realistic, and if you think of real life, there is no way to know who somebody is that you have never met. So why should that be any different for Identity? I think starting off, you shouldn't see any names above a players head. You should have to actually meet them and have them tell you their name, and at that point you can type a chat command, or maybe have a key binding to set their name. This will be a big social aspect of having to meet somebody new, and could also feed into realism by players giving you a false name, or not wanting to be identified. Let me know what you guys think. Like I said it's a long shot, but I think it could be cool. Thanks for reading.

    Swatting doesn't sound like a good idea, more annoying then funny. People who will play SWAT will probably dislike the idea as well. Further however calling cops about a fake robbery to test their response might be a nice thing, problem is that the response differs from how many people are online as cops and if anyone is in the area. If you pull a bank robbery i recommend doing something else on the other side of the map causing cops to go there including swat as distraction.

    Yeah exactly how I feel @ItsJedi. If you can only slap on parts instantly, it will be a huge let down. Cars are going to be a big deal in this game, so the mechanic job should be in depth instead of instantly fixing/installing parts. If it's like my summer car or car mechanic simulator, then players can have different prices and such. It really needs to be a pretty detailed job, or it's just a huge let down overall.

    How it works is you will take your personal vehicle to the police station. You will then get dressed with your police uniform at your locker, making you "on duty". You then take out your police car and proceed to do your job. Once you're done your job, you return to the police station, get changed back into civilian clothing, and take your personal vehicle home. So to make it all short, you're off duty unless you go to the station to change clothes and take out your police car.

    How many vehicle variations will we see? For example different makes of motorcycles, cars etc. Also if you change server, would that mean you lose that apartment/house you currently own when you go to a different server and have to start again? Thanks!

    DATE POSTED: March 24th, 2017 Big changes for a bigger world! What a crazy time for the Identity development team over here at Asylum! We've been running all over the place for conferences and expos this month, including both GDC and PAX East, where we met all sorts of new talent and potential technology partners. We've unfortunately had to push back the release of the Town Square module from our original Q1 2017 release with all of the big developments here, but most systems are in place and it's not far off! The biggest and most exciting news we're officially announcing today is a new partnership with Improbable, the creators of SpatialOS! The Identity team has been testing the waters with SpatialOS for a couple of months now and we're incredibly excited about what it's going to mean for Identity. Identity can now be what we all hoped it would be, a true MMORPG in scale. SpatialOS is going to power Identity behind the scenes, allowing absolutely enormous scale for our world and the people playing in it. While we had originally hoped to be able to get 300 people into our servers with decent performance, with just a tiny bit more effort we're going to be able to expand that as far as the game needs. Instead of 300 players in a single server, we could now potentially have thousands. The size of our servers are now going to be set based on what we feel is ideal for a fun and immersive environment and we're not limited technically like we were expecting in the past. It opens more doors than simply the number of players on a server, too. With these changes we can now afford to have a more dynamic and interactive world. We've gained some freedom in manipulating the world and we can create features which we never imagined possible in a game of Identity's scale. This is all extremely exciting for the team. This technology is a scope-changer and Identity is going to be far better for it. Not only will our world grow, not only will the population be denser, but you'll even be able to leave your mark in many new ways. Development charging forward Concept art for Town Square art gallery and library, featuring player content We're working and expanding at an incredible rate. All key gameplay features for Town Square are now functional as we add polish and work to support SpatialOS in Identity. The development team has expanded with terrific new talent: Antoine joins Identity's 3D art team, Cody comes on board as a new systems and gameplay programmer and Liam comes in as our first dedicated web developer. Antoine and Cody both bring experience in their field to hasten development for Town Square and Identity as a whole. Liam's talents mean exciting new features on our website will be popping up soon. We've had plenty planned for our website for some time but haven't had the resources to bring these to you, until now.

    Hello fellow police officers I am here to notify you that I am officially running for governor since yesterday. If I am elected I promise to set aside 30% of taxes to give to police work for better weapons, bullet proof vests, stronger vehicles, better tech, and build on more checkpoint each year in my term. I hope I have your vote to make a brighter beginning for Identity Island.

    simple idea if a certain area lets say turtle beach has a lot of crime in a 24 hour in game period like 3 murders, 2 police chases, 4 cars get stolen property values would be affected causing cops that live there to protect they're areas more and really change up how real estate markets could work, like hiring people to cause violence in a neighborhood so they can buy a house cheaper.

    I've noticed there's so much that is going to be added to this game and there's alot of people that are only playing it for specific parts of the game which adds realism! Just like real life, there are people that stick to doing certain things like racing and fashion etc.. It's cool to see that, like if I become a criminal and get arrested, and then a few months after that I get arrested again by the same cop it would be cool. It would be like rosco and the duke boys at it again lol. It will be cool to go down in town and see people sticking to their jobs, to see people progress, say you get up at 7 am every day and are out of the house by 8 and so is your neighbor and you see them driving an old beat up vehicle and then say about a month or two later you see that they have fixed rust on the vehicle and got new wheels with a new paint job.. that to me is a game changer which will add so much life to the game.

    This looks like a well worked out thread, The main issue i have with threads is that they do not include information about the roles however you managed to do this regardless. Maybe include some information regarding what time zone you will be most active and when/how applications are going to work. Further maybe requirements area? I recommend that you get people to assist you with your company as it is going to be a lot of work. And work out training programms and protocols right now to be prepared when the game launches. Further i'd like to ask you to PM me when applications open up, since i'm interested to join your company. For any questions or if you want to discuss my idea's you can PM me if you want. -Arcanion

    Sounds nice, being able to do this makes it more interactive and a better experience to be part of a gang. Drive By's could lead to people getting killed for no reason (By standers) which only causes annoyance and anger about the feature.

    This all might come later after the game been released. There's already a system for selling/making drugs. No such thing as gang clothes because irl it's just colors and tattoos and that will be easy to make with the creating system in the game. The drive-by is a cool GTA feel, but it won't happen because of their combat system, and it helps prevent rdm which would be common in this type game. I think the devs talked about territory control a while back, but it was more gangs/mafia can control buildings, etc. Controlling streets and areas will be an RP thing, but I can be wrong. I hope controlling territories in the future will be a thing.

    Maybe it's like they have all those different options like GTA V, like @GoldenPancake said, but perhaps once you choose and pay the item is delivered to you and you have to install it yourself. That's the way I'd like to see it anyway.

    I'm not sure exactly how many of you would be interested in this sort of thing, but once the full game releases, i would love to set up car meets and meet a ton of you all. I am huge into cars and cant wait to see how the devs have in store for us customization wise and i cant wait to see what you all do with your cars in game. I dont really care what kind of car you drive, muscle, import, truck, offroad, beater, bike, i just want a large social gathering of like minded people where we can all just sort of hang out and check out each others cars and get to know each other. I do plan on playing this with a good friend of mine but he isnt into cars like i am. Age doesnt really matter to me either as long as we're all respectful of each others cars and mature about everything. Sure the RP scenarios will be there for rivalries and races, but in all, i want for there to be a group of people who get to know each other and develop a true friendship all because we decided to go hang out with our cars. I guess, i kind of want to know you guy's thoughts on this. Would it be something that many of you would be interested in? Would anyone care to join me in opening a shop? Let me know your thoughts and hopefully we can continue to develop friendships starting here. See ya guys around! Jack Leyhe *EDIT* Devonor makes a good point. If we have enough people, would you guys be interested in me creating a steam group for the meets so everyone is notified of when and where? Seems like a good idea. I would also love to set up an actual car group in game with a name and logo for those interested to put on their cars (If thats something that we can do) Let me know, glad to see some interest in this. *EDIT 2* Discord Link here------> https://discord.gg/Pt9KcHP

    Question: Can you rent a car (or cars, van or trucks etc., like for a rental company) to people, like with a contract. simular to rent an appartment out to another player. If yes, then how will the game mechanics works when the rent time are over ? Its pretty simple on a house or appartment, but on a car that can be moved around there might need other types of game mechancs for that).

    Yeah being a mechanic should be a challenge. Honestly I don't think there should be much guidance at all. I believe the more you do something the better you get at it in-game. So maybe starting out you have have a bunch of guidance and as you progress you get less hints. Who knows, we sure don't aha. I think car mechanic simulator difficulty should be the baseline and maybe have different degrees of difficulty somehow included.

    Same here, but I want a challenge, not just a bunch of ricers rolling around. I don't want it to be a downhill battle. The intermediate approach would be perfect, Maybe a less guided CMS-15 building system and a more CSR2 type of tuning? Or is that too guiding?

    Identity's development has been moving at a pace we've never experienced in the past. With added full-time programming and art talent, we've been able to produce more content in a shorter time than expected. With all of the base features of Town Square in place, we've now been building up the supporting systems; the menu interfaces, server selection systems, character creation and more are well underway now. You'll get a good preview of the character customization soon! Ridable bicycle; work in progress Some exciting progress is also being seen beyond the Town Square! Our vehicle systems are starting to get fleshed out. We found the integrated Unreal Engine vehicle subsystems to be inadequate for the realism and fidelity we seek, so Identity will run on an entirely rebuilt vehicle physics engine. With this you can expect extremely realistic handling of bicycles, cars, vans, motorcycles, semi-trucks and more. We've got the Twitch Game development is an exciting career that many gamers aspire for. Just a couple of weeks ago we had test run streaming our development live on Twitch. In our first stream, our character artist Miroslav added different eyebrow varieties to Identity character head models. These are some of the eyebrow options you'll be able to choose when creating your characters; get an inside look at the work which goes into even a small detail as this. While the task Miroslav had at the time might not have been the most exciting, we're in the process of setting up a schedule for very regular streams from a variety of development departments. Keep an eye on Twitter and Facebook for stream time announcements. Click the preview below to watch the recorded stream. It runs at just under an hour in duration. Identity's first Dev Stream: Miroslav's Eyebrows You can find our Twitch channel at Twitch.tv/IdentityRPG. Follow us there to get notified when an Identity developer starts streaming! Path to the Town Square Town Square early revision; work in progress A lot of Town Square work has been accomplished since the last dev blog! From interface to animations and more feature polish, the Town Square is shaping up into a genuinely interesting social environment. We've been making everything we can in the environment interactive. If it looks like it would have some sort of purpose in reality, we're making it useful (or at least entertaining) in Identity, too! Grab a newspaper for the latest happenings, toss a coin into the fountain or grab a can of soda from the machine. Visual dynamics have been added as well. Simple things bring immersion to the environment. The clocks on buildings and towers show the real in-game time, the cinema marquee sign shows the movies playing with real times (which can be adjusted by owners of community servers in retail Identity) and more. We're making the Identity environment, and thus that in Town Square, feel alive and interactive. A hotel lobby at night -- John VanderZwet

    Porsche 930 911 Turbo. The thing is, many people want different cars for the aesthetics etc, but these old air cooled Porsches are a completely different driving experience to most cars on the road since the way the way the weight is distributed in the car. All that weight is where the engine is in the rear of the car which gives great initial rear grip until you push the tyres beyond their boundaries with the power and lag that comes from the turbo. The moment you come back off the throttle the rear grips up again making the car slingshot off the road. Because of all that these cars are pretty notoriously hard to drive and there's no cars that really handle like it. Definitely got the nickname widowmaker for a good reason.

    It is important that the police treat the citizens with respect which I am 99.9% sure they will but the citizens must also respect the police force because they are the ones who stay up and do night shifts and day shifts and protect us so we can live happy fulfilled lives. I am also 99.9% sure that our wonderful citizens will treat the police with ultimate respect.

    Hia! Katie here, name also being, well Katie. I learned about Identity from one of my friends and decided that I would love to help out, which is why I'm here now! I mostly play League of Legends in my free time, but I expand my pool of gaming. Right now I'm in Queen's University in Kingston studying Biology, which is not the easiest thing in the world to do. If you ever want to play a game or two of something, feel free to shoot me a message and I'll add you on whatever. I just hope everyone has a good time!
