Housing Inspiration

[Housing Inspiration]

Hi everyone! I have been a house geek for a while now, and I'd like to provide some ideas and some photos for the devs to work with when creating the many homes around the island! Please feel free to leave a suggestion of your own!

 

Townhouses/Rowhouses

These homes are most often found in inner cities. They are mostly historic, but there are more modern takes that are sometimes found in suburbs as well as in the cities.

 

Cabin/Mountain Retreat

These types of homes are most often found in mountainous areas with large and beautiful vistas overlooking landscape and sometimes nearby cities.

 

Oceanfront/Beach Houses

These homes are almost always on stilts to protect them home in case the tide comes in too far. They are often painted in bright and pastel colors. I imagine these homes being beachside in Turtle Beach on the island.

 

 

 

American Foursquare

These homes are most often found in the outskirts of cities and in rural villages. These homes usually have slim driveways and detached garages behind the home.

 

Victorian

These houses are most often found in cities and rural villages, but can sometimes be spotted in the suburbs.

 

American Suburban

These houses are most often found in neighborhoods in city suburbs.

 

 

Split Level

These homes are most often found in city suburbs and rural areas, but sometimes can be found in the outskirts of cities.

 

Cape Cod

These homes are most often found in rural areas and in city suburbs.

 

New American

These homes are most often found in city suburbs and in semi-rural areas.

 

Farmhouse

These homes are found in rural areas and are usually met with large porches, lots of land, and barns.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Ideas that don't require their own thread - MEGAthread]

A sandbox server is the best idea I have read in a while.

[Amusement Parks?]

There have been no mention of aquariums and zoos (although I hope they are in the game), but I know that there was a conversation of a fair instead of an amusement park. This is because the permanent amusement wouldn't be much fun when you're the only one in the park after everyone got bored of it, but since the fair would only come around every now and then, it would be loaded with people having fun in order to provide the proper amusement park/fair rp/experience.

[Apartment,House and Building capacity?]

What If they have a lot of money? it could probably be there forever. I think it would kinda suck for the players wanting to start a business. I at least hope there is enough houses for how many people can be in the server.

Like @JamesLuck01 explained, if the player is offline they are unable to make the payments regardless of how much money they have. I'm sure there will be a reasonable system to make sure that all opportunities are available to buy housing.

[Apartment,House and Building capacity?]

I'm guessing that in order to ensure that properties are being used instead of just being held, or that are possibly owned by inactive players, is in a realistic roleplay way where if they miss too many payments that the house is taken from them and put up for sale again.

[Idea - Big companies]

I think the best solution would be just to have smaller and larger office options for companies depending on their size, and the company could decide to upgrade and move to a better office if they can afford it.

[BREAKING POLL : VOTE IMMEDIATELY]

This is a very important issue and deserves your utmost and undivided attention. Think wisely and carefully before choosing an answer.

Thank you for your time.

[VoIP Channels]

I hope adding/having contacts is where you already have the people in your session added into your contacts, otherwise it might be difficult to talk to people if VoIP doesn't work or there is no/minimal text chat, and if this were to be REALLY realistic, then you would need to actually find the number of the person you wish to contact, which might be more realistic, but would also make it sort of annoying.

I do remember reading somewhere that you will have to add other players to your contacts in order to call or text them. You do not automatically have all of the players on the server in your phone like in GTA V. You will have to meet someone and ask them for their phone number. This should be interesting for dating rp for if girls refuse to give a guy her phone number lol

[Im curious, how many people want to be cops in identity?]

I'm certain that both cops and criminals combined will account for about/a little bit less than half of the population. I'm guessing the other half will have aspirations pertaining to business, politics, law, medical, and other services like interior design, public transportation and the sort. Like @CadeStrikemen said, this game has great potential to be an RPG that is tons more than just cops v. robbers.

[Play or no?]

Unfortunately, Apple computers are not built for gaming and you will only be able to play on very low graphic settings with lots of game lag, if you are even able to play at all. Apple computers are outstanding for other things, which is why I have a Mac and a PC for gaming, but Mac computers do not even have graphics cards, so you will be playing with Intel integrated graphics (which suck). They are not optimized for gaming, which is why many video games/companies do not even produce video games available for Mac computers. If you want to have an enjoyable experience on the game, I'm afraid you should invest in a medium to high-end gaming computer (because that's what it's looking like the game will need in order to play comfortably). 

 

If you are interested in buying separate computer components and hiring someone to put them together for you, I will be more than happy to discuss with you an affordable plan for PC components that will work nicely. I would also be willing to talk with you about buying pre-built PCs if you are interested!

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, hope to see you around!

Features that I'd Like

Moonroof

Regular car horns (as in not those annoying unrealistic loops and songs, etc. that are available in GTA online)

Built in/standalone GPS??

Bluetooth calling

(Kind of off topic, but I'd really like it if as you were outside for extended periods of time, that you would start to get really hot and really cold and could come into your car and turn on the heat/air conditioning to stabilize??)

Cruise control

Functional turning signals

A gear shifting system, regardless of whether your transmission be auto or manual, you have to shift your car into reverse and press the gas pedal in order to go backwards as opposed to where in most games the brake and reverse are the same button (ugh)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Answered]

There will most likely be plenty of alcoholic variety, but I think the drug part of the game is about selling drugs, not having every type imaginable. The devs aren't trying to condone drug use, and so I'm guessing there will only be the most prevalent kinds like marijuana, cocaine, meth, and possibly heroine.

also wat about a limit on how long i will be persued for a murder and will the class of the player count towards the punishment like if i shot a criminal vs if i shot a goverment official or a cop

There will most likely not be a cooldown time to when you can murder again without being pursued. There isn't one in real life; if you murder someone you're going to be pursued for arrest until you are either caught or confirmed dead. 

 

There will be a trial about your sentencing and I'm guessing that there will probably be less jail time for a vigilante as opposed to someone who massacred a bunch of cops. Most definitely.

[Comunidades Oficial Brasileira]

Honestly, he's not trying to split the community. He is just wanting to find people that have things in common with him lol.

Nowhere is the forum guidelines does it say that you are required to speak English. He is not segregating, he is looking for friends.

He can speak both Portuguese and English so everyone can understand? 

The main language of the forum is English and so why not put it in both languages and so others can read what is being said instead of segregating by using not the main forum language. Simple enough.

Not everyone needs to understand though, it's simple enough. If you speak portuguese then reply, if not then don't, because he is looking for other portuguese speakers. If you're really that bent on it just throw it into Google translate. Not everything needs to be about English and America.

[Serveur]

If they don't make a French server, I'm sure that the most common language in the servers will be English, but I'm also sure that there will be other French speakers that you will make quick friends with to hang out on official servers!

English please as I can't understand what your saying.

That's the point. He's speaking portuguese to reach out to other Brazilians.

Medicine practice is most certainly not a government job, sorry to be frank.

[Will male officers arrest female citizens?]

Who is saying this exactly?

EDIT: I realized that DFG was being heavily sarcastic. I didn't read the rest of his post. oops. But I think the OP was saying that male cops shouldn't be able to arrest female criminals? 

[Will male officers arrest female citizens?]

So what you're saying is that if a male cop happened upon a female criminal, that cop should not respond and risk getting killed and risk having innocent people get harmed just because the criminal is a woman? That makes absolutely no sense at all. 

[Build houses?]

That sucks as I really wanted to become a property developer.

If you're still interested in design, I'm sure you could make a living as an interior designer. There will be plenty of people that would be willing to pay you to design the interior of their homes.

[Project Session]

I would be careful with this, because advertising is against the forum rules.

[Food Ideas / Concepts]

I'm also personally really hoping for a pizzeria somewhere in the cities. I love me some pizza and wings. (wink wink)
