    Hello everyone.

    I would like to share a few things which have made me quite concerned lately.

    I used to be a paramedic/fireman in some Arma 2 and Arma 3 "real life mods." I enjoyed what I did in the beginning and saving other players lives gave me such wonderful warm feeling inside.

    However, what has caused me to stop playing such mods was a total disrespect towards first responders (particularly ambulance and fire departments). Other players and sometimes even police officers used to yell at me for responding too late to a call. I simply can not respond to five different calls at the same time. For them, that was not a valid excuse.

    I would sometimes be the only paramedic or fireman online since a great majority of other players loved playing "cops and robbers."

    I was constantly bombarded with insults such as  "Fire department sucks", "Zulnex Paramedic sucks" and others. This does not help at all and only adds more stress on myself and my fellow paramedics/firemen. 

    Hopefully this will not happen in Identity and if it still does, maybe there will be a server somewhere where all first responders will be treated with respect.

    I promise  that I will do my very best to save as many lives as I possibly can.

    I will share a short little ambulance video to conclude this important notice. Take care everyone.

    I kind of hope there's a written DMV driver's test before being permitted to move on to your driver's course, either automated or handled through DMV associates. I could probably settle as a DMV driver course instructor for those who have sat down and passed the test. It would both be educational and improve role-play.

    What a nice idea! I love it.

    Hello everyone.

    My apologies for re-opening this topic again but there may be some new members which have not seen it yet.

    I will share 2 videos as a reminder of what all future first responders may face in Identity. When you see an emergency vehicle with its lights and sirens on, please move out of the way when it's safe to do so. 

    In order to save someone's life, first responders face extreme stress trying to get to their victims safely and very quickly. Please note all the hazards these ambulance drivers face on their way.

    Kind regards.

    Identity Paramedic,

    Hello everyone.

    I was thinking for the past few days about the importance of a proper road infrastructure in Identity. I know that many players will not find this topic particularly interesting. However, I have decided to share a few ideas and discuss their importance here.

    So, what is exactly a road infrastructure?

    "Roads are a critical component of any city's transportation infrastructure. The maintenance and rehabilitation of city streets ensures that the movement of people, as well as goods and services, continues effectively and efficiently."

    According to Wikipedia, there are quite a few different Road Infrastructure categories.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Road_infrastructure

    I know that it would be impossible for Developers to address each and every one of the above mentioned categories. Therefore, I will now mention just a few and briefly explain their potential importance in Identity.

     

    Firstly, let's start with the pavement markings.

    "Road surface markings are used on paved roadways to provide guidance and information to drivers and pedestrians."

    These would be very important in Identity for all those who are interested in following the traffic rules and help make everyones journey safer and less stressful.

    It would be impossible to include every single possible pavement marking in game, but maybe just a few important ones could make a huge difference in safety of Identity's drivers and overall enjoyment of the game.

    Here are a few examples:

    For those interested, there is lots more information here:
    http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/services/publications/fhwaop02090/twtmarkings_lgview.htm

     

    Secondly, let's briefly discuss the traffic signs.

    "Traffic signs or road signs are signs erected at the side of or above roads to give instructions or provide information to road users."

    This category is pretty much self explanatory. However, it's very important as well.

    Some basic signs would be very welcome in Identity for everyone's safety. Also, it would greatly help police officers to enforce the laws. If there are no traffic signs and road markings, it would be very hard to determine which driver was at fault in case of an accident. Basically our roads would be extremely dangerous.

    Here are just a few examples:

    There is tons of more information here for those who wish to find out more:

    http://www.trafficsign.us

     

    Thirdly, I just wish to briefly mention city/highway guardrails.

    "Guard rail or guardrail, sometimes referred to as guide rail or railing, is a system designed to keep people or vehicles from (in most cases unintentionally) straying into dangerous or off-limits areas."

    Guardrails would be absolutely crucial in Identity to protect the drivers against bad accidents and save lives in the process. Hopefully guardrails will be present on Identity's most dangerous roads.

    By all means - feel free to discuss your views here if you are interested.

    Thank you and drive safe!

    I wonder if this kind of technique can translate to gameplay?

    I don't see a reason why not. All future first responders should have common sense. They need to arrive safely in order to provide the required assistance.

    Crashing and creating another emergency is not a way to go.

    Hello everyone.

    I have recently seen an interesting and educational video, which I will share here. It is very important that all future first responders (police, fire and ambulance) drive carefully when responding to calls.

    On numerous occasions while playing some Arma Life mods, I have seen police officers cause accidents due to a total disregard for the safety of others.

    I will definitely be applying the techniques learned from this video when I am responding to a call in my ambulance.

    Future Identity Paramedic,

    That is good to hear. I agree with you in that security will play one of the most vital roles in Identity. It should not be regarded as a luxury service, but be available to all citizens of Identity so that they can have the opportunity to access our services, and remain safe. With support from investors, politicians, and allies, we will be able to provide flexibility and confidentiality for our clients and their assets needing protection. 

    We will surely need capital established prior to the game's release, so managing our investor-base as soon as possible would be ideal. An investor form will be announced on this thread when it is complete on our website. We are not only looking for individuals that can contribute adequate funding, but also by showcasing our company to a larger target market.

    Great forum question! Once prospective clients sub forum is activated with security measures and ease of use, it will be announced close to the same time as the investor form.

     

    I look forward to working with you in the future,

    Sebastian Valentine - CEO & Founder of Aegis Security Consulting

    Thank you so much for your reply Sir.

    I shall follow this thread for future news. Looking forward investing in your company and using your services.

    Kind regards,

    Zulnex Zulnexdorf - Identity Paramedic
