    I think they should be an Adult filter to allow the option so only people that wants the option can unlock it if they are of legal age. Otherwise the option could be either locked or different such as The Sims blurry effect instead of the real thing. 

    Kids can easily lie about their age and so no filter will do anything. There are other reasons why it is not in the game and therefor it has been expressed a lot from the devs it won't enter the game at any point. (They could change their minds at a later point).

  2. Hello @san96, Welcome to the community and I hope enjoy the wait.

    PS: your English is not too bad.

    What are you hoping to do in Identity and what is the 1 thing that most excites you within the game?

    Nice to meet you and have a lovely day!

    Cheerio.

    Is there a spec list out there yet, I wanna buy the game but I wanna make sure I can run the game before I spend money on a game I may not be able to run.

    No, as it is too early for this to be accurate enough to give and so, as for now if you can run games like GTA V, ArmA3 or ARK then you should be fine.

    In the Podcast  they said that they want the actions to be upclose and personal , and they don't want to give unfair adventages to some factions or players.

    Yes, that is right, but Aircraft in general could be added in the future of the game (long time after full release). As if you know, there is a airport in one of the cities and so it could possibly used as a means of travel to islands they could add as DLC's or as a bigger update in the future. (Not saying they will have DLC's)

    Hello, So Here is some suggestions and Ideas I think that If its in the game ( If its not already ) it would really make it great!

    1- Sport Teams ( Football or basketball ) So we could for example start a team and start playing against others! ( this might already exist but just in case, Here it is )

    2- News Stations/TV Shows ( Owned by real players ). I've Heard in the last trailer that we could watch TV and so on, But it would be really awesome if we could start making our own Shows on TV and get money for every watcher! For example I am really interested in making a news station where it would be both on Radio and on Newspapers and TVs, so we post car chases, Weather news, Political news.. and So on.

    3- Cinema Films ( Filmed by real players ). Iknow that Cinemas will be a real thing and we would be able to see movies and films, But how about if we were able to create and film ones ( Based and acted in the game ) And we would show it in these cinemas, And we will get money by everyone who goes to see the movie.

    4- More Usable Props. Such as Professional Cameras, Microphones, Headsets...

    5- Special Vehicles. This might be Suggested a lot, and it might be in the game, But I think we should have Special vehicles such as Helis, and Maybe a News Van ( If news was a possible thing.) And so on.

     

    Thats it, Thank you for reading, and I hope you liked my ideas. I would love for you to tell me if these ideas might be a real thing or if it would be very hard to do, But either ways, Thank you again.

    -drJames

    1. You can do this already, but you won't get paid/ you the player has to organise these sort of things.

    2. This won't be in the game for many reasons and personally would have loved it, but it is unfortunate we can't have everything.

    3. This is also the same and has suggested before, but another unfortunate thing not happening.

    4. Cameras are unfortunately tie into the other things and won't be possible to limitations.

    5. No Aircraft and so no need for it and also No aircraft for the game. Aircraft could be in the possible future.

    Thank you a lot!

    Update on last part...  

    You can't really create a corporation for the radio station stuff unfortunately. It's just an activity that anyone can get involved with. It won't pay out any money.

    Although the devs could probably do something where it passively pays out based on listeners. 

    And No problem.

    So I was wondering if we will be able to make Movies or TV shows or any kind of shows that could be shown in TVs at home.

    No, not in-game but you can do it externally e.g. stream it on twitch or have a YT video that players can watch in-game on the TV.

    For example, Im thinking of doing a News Station, So we have our own TV show that we must stream.. and so on

    You can host a radio station but unfortunately not a TV one.

    And so we could build up this tycoon and Start getting News vans or even Helis

    No Air Vehicles in the game.

    So we could capture car chases and so on. I could do all the video editing or even do this as a stream on twitch or what ever. But would it be possible to show it on TVs? 

    Yes, you can do it on twitch and YT that people can watch on the TV's but have to search for it themselves.

    10 minutes ago, drJames said:

    Also will we have props as Cameras, Microphones, Books, Stuff like that? For example we could use a camera to capture stuff for the News, If you get what i mean.

    No camera objects as they are high on networking.

    Microphones like the ones which on stage yes but not like a TV broadcast one etc.

    Books, you can write your own books in-game, you can write a column in the newspaper too.

    11 minutes ago, drJames said:

    Also what about Cinemas? Would it be possible that we can make our own Movies? Honestly that would really be amazing. I heard that Movies will be shown, But can we make our own? and get money through it?

    No, you can't unfortunately but would have been cool.

    And One thing, If we make a Company like a News Stations ( If it be possible ) or Radio stations, Will we automatically get paid for doing it as like a normal tycoon, Or people must watch or listen to it in order for us to get paid?

    no news stations but radio stations I am unsure how you will get paid and no one really knows that answer as of yet.

    How long are you? It has been standing on 89% in a long time. Do it soon change?

    -Jonas/YalaJohn

    The progress bar is updated manually and in big chunks. It is only updated when the devs feel they have hit a good enough milestone in development.

    e.g. it went up about end of march from 76% to 89%.

    Well, while i plan to play a law-enforcement person, and will of course comply with the rules and regulations therein (mostly), i have no desire to build a character around it. I will simply be a guy that plays a cop IN a game rather than "Bob the Cop," OF the game.

    Yeah, I am glad there are people are not all for just RP

    Can you source this? I'm pretty sure I've seen them say they wanted to include as many different types of clothing as possible.

    I read it somewhere on the forums from either paratus or motown, but I will have to go through the forums to find it, as I read random posts including old posts.

              Yes Star Wars was a Massive inspiration to Chris Roberts  (and other devs on the team over at CIG) . With that said , other then the ship to ship  dogfighting being like X-wing / TIE fighter  which Chris Roberts drew upon to be like world ward 2 dog fighting ,  I wouldn't really put  the rest of SC in the Star Wars category .  But to each and their own. SC is different to everyone, and in my opinion that's a good thing.

                As for a referral program, I defiantly agree with you , giving peeps in Identity 5k for every referral would be a ridiculously game braking idea.  That's not what I am saying here.  I just used that as a example, to be quite honest 5k in SC is nothing, your lucky to even fill up fuel for you small fighter ship with 5k, but its a little token of appreciation .  That's what I meant for Identity a little something like maybe a piece  of Apartment décor ( lamp, throw rug, wall pic) or maybe a in game t-shirt etc....  and it does not have to be for every referral it could be for 5  or 10 and then you get this 1 small item.   It gives fans something to work towards (and compete against each other in a friendly way)  while the game is still in development and in returns helps the Devs get the word out with out spending a lot of time and epically money on marketing .  

    Yeah, I know and agree that SC is inspired by multiple things and that is one great aspect to it and well as I am a star wars fan, seeing the ship which looks like the "Millennium Falcon" is one thing which I love to see.

    I get you was using that as an example, but here with the Identity community, everyone spreads the word about it because we want to and with us helping the devs like that on our terms is rewarding enough for me any ways but it would be great for a thing like this to be as because then it will attract more attention to those that it is not rewarding for just doing it to help out. You see I think that it would help out more but that is because people want that "reward" mainly and not solely to help out.

  12. @Kamikaze one thing though, out of all games you say "SC" is inspired or they had a baby. I think that you missed the only one which was a true part of "SC" being Star Wars! Star Wars is the film that inspired "Chris Robert, the guy put it together" the most inspiration.

    Also if this game had a referral program which gives you $5k in-game money then that would not be good for the in-game economy and it don't work on this game. It is a good suggestion but the reason why you get so little money for high pledges in the first place is because the devs don't want players having too much of an advantage in the first place and so if a referral program came around like that then that takes away the point of the pledges. Therefor I disagree of having such a programme for it. This game didn't make over $1 million at kickstarter and also the devs here care about keeping the game fair for the other players.

    i was wondering it would be cool to put some [extra] side effects for private servers for admins to use like the Purge to give them the idea of how scripts will work on the server and im guessing easy thing to do as its kinda same thing we had on asylum and kinda a little easter egg for people that did play the server , ,a fun event Admin triggered all crimes are void for 12 hours :D

    There won't be scripting/ modding as it is not planned as of yet, but they possibly in the future.

    Also the purge won't be put in the game and it won't be such a thing.

    I guess it would be cool as an admin triggered event, but I rather would not have it because it is not a realistic thing to modern US life which is allowed.

    Will there be a dark web for selling things like drugs and weapons or do you have to find someone on the street

    For guns to buy or sell but if you want to sell drugs then, it would likely be direct to a person/ the NPC Drug Dealer. The dark web could be made by the players or will be done already but I am not sure.


  16. Welcome to the community!

    What attracted you when you found Identity?

    Also any questions? You may find your answers in the resources on the forum but if not just shoot them away and I or anyone will be happy to help answer them.

    Nice to meet you and see you in-game some time when available!

    If you can find an alternative I can get a hosted server Wednesday 

    Well, PERP is a option, if you can find the content and fix up the gamemode etc. 

    DarkRP don't appeal to me no more.
