  1. The Astral Plane.

    Welcome to the Astral Plane. An exclusive club where only those who wield the greatest influence over society are allowed entry. Join other, high class citizens as we enjoy pleasures unimaginable to most common-folk. Beautiful music that would draw enough tears from the masses to form oceans. The most eloquent cuisine which makes common meals taste like grass by comparison. The finest wine and most beautiful women (and men, for those who partake). No pleasure is forbidden. Enjoy the life of the elite overlooking the commoners below on the highest floor of the tallest building in the city. Welcome to the most exclusive club in the world. Welcome to The Astral Plane. Just an RP thread I wanted to put together to contrast the other RP threads, which focus more on the "low-life" so to speak. If you want to RP as someone rich and powerful, this is the place to do it. A few rules as well as the setup for how I am going to run this: 1. Anything out of character or not spoken by your character should be in Italics green, all in character RP should be written in first person. 2. I will be acting as the "mysterious host" of the Astral Plane. This will allow me to guide the RP in a fun and interesting direction. I will also act as a Game Master with again, non-rp text written in Italics. 3. When you first enter there are 6 tables you may choose to sit at. You may only interact with the people sitting at your table and are encouraged to do so (unless otherwise specified, just ask in Italics). 4. Your first post should contain basic character information eg. What your character looks like, what you are wearing, and what allowed you entrance into the Astral Plane. It also should contain which table you are going to sit at. The Host will also greet all new guests as they enter. 5. Please wait 3 days for a reply at your given table. After three days, response will be assumed by GM. You don't have to read the entire thread to hop in. Anyone can join. Those are pretty much the rules. Most importantly, be creative with your RP and have fun!
  2. The town square module price

    Just read in the newsletter today about when Townsquare is dropping. One thing I wanted to get clarified was the statement: ''We've crunched all the numbers and can now say with fair confidence that the Identity Town Square module will be released, to all backers with a $30 or higher pledge, on this coming March 21st.'' It says that you will get the town square module beta with a $30 pledge but when i go on the shop it says that i will get the beta for a $15 plegde.
  3. Any other games like Identity ?

    Identity looks good but its not even in Beta so the release will be probably atleast one year so meanwhile i need a similar game like this here the games /mods i already know Altis Life - already tried Gta Samp - Full of Dmers rule breakers etc Garry mod - same as gta samp these are the most known Roleplay so there any other good roleplay game/mod with mature community and good population?
  4. I am very hyped for ''Identity Town Square Module'' to launch, hopefully around winter sometime. But I'm curious and intrested in what type of character yours will be? Drug Dealer? Business Man? Car Thieve? Weapon Arms Dealer? Stylist? Please tell me! :9
  5. Room mate needed!

    I'm currently looking for a room mate before I go forward with getting myself an apartment. We can pay 50% each for fees. And you get to live with the greatest mad scientist on the Island!!! Just.. umm.. let me know if your interested.
  6. H1Z1: Just Survive Roleplay

    Does anyone have H1Z1 and would like to work on a project I am working on? I am of course referring to Just Survive here. My experiment will work as follows. We all log on to a server with preferably low pop. Beforehand, each person will be given a dedicated role, a radio frequency and a set of coordinates. You will also be given a secondary radio frequency in cases of emergency. Basically how it will work is I will act as the leader of a group. We will all log in and be spawned in random locations. That's where the frequency and co-ordinates come in. If you find a radio you can connect to our frequency and you will be able to communicate with everyone else. If you cannot find one, you will make your way to the coordinates. We will take over the area that the coordinates are and you will chose a house. The players/house ratio will be 2:1, however this can vary. You are then free to do whatever you want with that house. You can store things in it and no one will be allowed to take from it. No one will be allowed to enter your house either. Once we are all settled in, you will be split up into your dedicated roles and given a briefing. The roles could improve builders, researchers, scavengers, guards etc. You will try and stick to your roles however if you are a researcher and want to go chop down a tree, you obviously can. Likewise if a scavenger wants to build himself something he can, its just not his dedicated role to build for everyone. We will then try and maintain a dictatorial society in which you will be given tasks and you must complete them to the best of your ability. For example, I might say that the builders need metal scraps so our scavengers will be given their own frequency and sent out to find metal scraps over a designated area. Meanwhile, the builders could be tasked with repairing any damaged fortifications and so on. I think this could be fun. Only rules are you do as you try and roleplay as if this is real, and be mature. Let me know if anyone wants to help!
  7. Radio Station

    I feel as if this has probably been talked about before and might have been answered in the reddit Q&A however I am wondering if civilians are able to host their own radio station and if so would we need a studio and how different stations and studio time would work (cant have everyone using a studio so how many studios/stations will there be?). Finally would there be an implimented way to broadcast music on the radio? (Not sure how exisiting music would work but I assume you would be able to broadcast music made by in-game characters). Sorry if this is written badly, it's 5am
  8. (Roleplay) Rest Up Bar & Grill: Part One

    The Rest Up Bar & Grill is a little dive of a restaurant/inn that can be seen by anyone passing down the highway. You've might have heard about it through a friend or a quick search for awesome burgers. It's not the prettiest building around, but it looks like the owner has kept it up with the times. There's free wi-fi, spacious rooms for waiting out the rainstorm that's headed over in a few days, and more. It has a welcoming neon sign that doesn't blink creepily during the evening hours. During the day, there's a few billboards letting travelers know it's coming up and open for business. Behind the establishment is a river, and on the bank of it there's a dock that's in need of repairs, though it still appears to be serviceable for anyone boating up to it. A parking lot laden with gravel and bits of leaves shows a spacious area for parking. The area is generally well-lit after sunset, leaving it to appear a safe haven for patrons, new and old. If you go inside, the scent of fried food and probably the best coffee you've ever smelled hits you like a freight train. You're then greeted immediately by a short grey-haired woman in her 50's. She's wearing a bright blue apron over a pink uniform, has chubby cheeks and a very cheery, grandmotherly demeanor. She hands you menus, and takes your order when you're ready. There's plenty of seating at the bar and the tables, as well as a jukebox you don't have to pay for... (Rules: Have fun, don't post anything unrealistic (magic, for starters) and again, have fun. Keep your postings in-character as part of the story you'd like to make and post out of character commentary in brackets or parentheses in that same post. Make your posts substantial, at least a paragraph; the more detail, the better your character/story intentions are better interpreted this way. All rules of the forum apply to this thread. This thread is meant ONLY for roleplay while waiting for the Town Square module to come up, and to also get some activity for us players going. If your character arrives at this place, they'll already know that this is a good place to wait out both a really bad thunderstorm that's headed over in a couple of days, as well as the completion of the new development happening in the next town over, which is a couple of hours away. This is going to be slightly freeform and I'll post changes here over time if it grows, it's a bit of story I created so be sure to read updates carefully. If you have questions about details of the setting or what you're character can/cannot/should/shouldn't do, PM me and I will add them into a little FAQ section for this thread in this post. I work full-time, so please be patient, but I will reply to your messages as soon as I am able to. I just whipped this up and am eager to see how many are willing to partake in a little prequel to the Town Module!)
  9. Roleplay Thread

    (Ok so i'm pretty much making this to have fun and to get friendships and relationships etc. hashed out before the actual game comes out. Have fun.) Chandler Walker's eyes opened slowly as he groaned at the sound of his alarm clock. As he slams his fist down to turn it off, he jolts up realizing he forgot to do his chemistry homework for class. "ah crap. Mr. Remmington's gonna kill me. Again." He recently started his senior year in his new high school and he was definitely not off to a good start. Things weren't going his way. He wasn't the cool new kid or the athletic new kid. He was the ignored new kid. It was pretty annoying too. He put on his Hawaiian shirt, cargo pants, vans shoes and glasses, he was ready to go. Or not. He forgot his backpack. Now he was ready to go. Chandler grabbed his car keys and drove to school. "Wow day 4. I ponder of what amazing discoveries are headed my way." He said in a very sarcastic tone. The bell rang. He was late to class, again. As he hurried down the hall, the asshole, George Fitzgerald stopped him, pushed him around a little then socked him in the stomach so hard that the air was knocked right out of him. He then walked away laughing. As Chandler sat down on the floor, trying to recover, he talked to himself. "Wow. High school stereotypes become reality in senior year."
  10. 911 operator or dispatch?

    I'm not sure if it has been mentioned or discussed before but an Idea struck me while I was thinking about the cellphones in identity. A really cool job that someone could do is be a 911 operator and answer 911 calls for the pd. Imagine the wacky/horrific things that you could hear from a call. I personally would love to be in a situation where someone is held hostage and they are talking to me over the phone and I have to keep them calm until SWAT members arrive to help them. What do you guys think about the idea? I don't think it would be that hard to implement, since player calling and phone numbers will already be a thing.

  12. Create Your Identity

    So I remember this sort of post on the old forums but I haven't seen it on the new version (but correct me if i'm wrong). Also I wasn't sure if this should be in the Pub or in the town square (feel free to move it if necessary) but it's in town square for now. Feel free to insert images and photos depicting details Here are the details you can fill out for your RP character Name: Age: From (City, Country): Appearance (Body, Face): Attire: Job: Detail of House: Detail of Car/ Vehicle: Personality: Background:
  13. My Character Yay or Nay

    Im bored so im going to share my character idea. Name: Ximena Castillo NickName: Mena Race/Ethnicities/Nationality: Family is from the Dominican Republic but is mostly Black and Latina Looks: Medium-Dark Skin with long, thick curly hair. Dark brown eyes and thick lips. Rather thin but not bone thin. Has some meat on her bones Goals: To make as much money and to accumulate as much power as she possibly can whether through legal or illegal methods Personality: While she is not completely selfish she is very goal oriented. She sees the value in friendships and how it can be very profitable in the long run but will not hesitate to throw a little betrayal their way to boost herself. However, she will also not hesitate backing up her own. She will have no problem using people if it will benefit her. Personal Facts: Distrustful of White People but will work with them. Business is Business. Sexuality: Attracted to generous people with large amounts of money Education: High School Diploma. No college education Natural Assets: Looks, Charm, Resourceful Background: Ximena Castillo was born to Santiago Castillo and Maria Vargas in Santo Domingo, the capital of the Dominican Republic. Her parents although loving were living in poverty. They did the best they could but that wasn't enough for her. She resented her parents for giving her a life she felt like she didn't deserve. Her parents just kept loving her even tho she felt like she didn't feel the same way. Throughout she was always doing something. Whether it was pickpocketing or selling rock salt under the guise that they were crystals to younger kids she was always doing something. At age 19 she had a thing with a local boy her age named Mateo. He got her pregnant and were together. Her parents didn't approve and for good reason. He was a master manipulator at heart. He convinced her to steal money from her parents and even rob an old woman. After about a month of this, he gave her an ultimatum. Leave her parents and baby behind and travel to the States with him or get left behind by Mateo. She loved Mateo and agreed to leave with him. She should soon realize that this would be the worst mistake of her life. She goes with him all the way to Manzanillo to the Sea Port to get on a cargo ship to the States. When they arrive she is told by Mateo that she has to sleep with the crew members so that they will allow them on. She was being used but she went along with it still thinking that Mateo loves her. She does what he has to do and they get on the ship. When they arrive in the States she is so excited for their new lives together. However, she is hit with a bombshell. Mateo wants nothing to do with her. He throws her away like garbage. She was just a means to an end. A pawn in his game.She thought she had true love but she then realized that her love was home.Her child and her parents He leaves her alone in a strange new place. She convinced a man to let her stay at his apartment for sex and stayed for a little while. It was during this time that she hardened up. She finally realized that if she was going to survive then she can't survive on looks alone. In a way, she became what she hated so much in Mateo. She became ruthless. After a while, Mena decided not to dwell on the past and wanted a fresh start. She made her way to the Island that Identity takes place in and will be determined to come into her own. However, her life changing choice to abandon her baby and parents and her treatment of ungratefulness towards them will haunt her. I feel like this is a pile of shit but give me your thoughts.
  14. As most of you already know, Idenity is pretty much a game of infinite (almost) capabilities. Sure, you'll have those moderate roleplay experiences on the Official servers and things like that, but what about on those privately owned Roleplay strict type servers? What kind of roleplay experiences are you most excited for in Identity? Personally, I am excited to be running a business. I've always wanted to run a business in real life but at the same time I'm only 15. The idea of running a business, getting ahead of your competition, making huge decisions that will affect all of your customers, either in a bad way or a great way is just so amazing to me and I can't wait to have that experience in this game. Also, another thing I'm pretty hyped for is the underground world. No, I don't mean like underground caves and things like that. I mean the criminal underground. Knowing that gangs, mafias, etc. are constantly going to be in war, making drugs, pushing drugs, cops on their tails trying to pick up every piece of clues/evidence they need to catch the big gang leaders/members is just so cool to me. And the amazing thing is, unless you are thoroughly informed, or at least have some knowledge of what's going on in the world of Identity, some players will never even notice that any of this "underground" activity is even going on! So again, what roleplaying experiences are you most excited for?
  15. Car Meets

    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
  16. These questions can help developers know what type of server they should create for the release of Identity.
  17. Sonic Reporting For Dutie!

    Hello people of Identity! Just wanted to say I am happy to be joining you on this glorious day! I truly cannot wait until this game fully launches.

  18. Garry's Mod DarkRP

    Hello guys! I have decided to start a DarkRP mainly aimed at satisfying people who are looking to play Identity until it comes out! It will be a semi-serious roleplay server and hopefully if you lot decide to come we will be able to have a low rule breaking community. I am currently working on the development of the server and if any of you would like to help out it would be greatly appreciated! I still need a website, so if someone wanted to help out with that I would love it, and also if anyone knows lua let me know so I can ask questions when I run into problems! This server is not going to be silly and full of 9 year olds running about with guns, I want you to play this like you will play Identity. Thanks!
  19. The First Identity Political Convocation Sponsered By DollaBank LLC. Announcing: The First Identity Political Convocation. When: TBD What: An organized roleplay event for players to gather (in Dischord) to discuss the current state of politics in Identity. The intention is for candidates and political activists to meet each other and form parties and coalitions, as many candidates are running as independents. Candidates will have time to give speeches as well and present to everyone attending. All are welcome. Agenda: (Times and events are subject to change) 00:00-00:25 - Guests will file in and have a chance to freely meet and talk to all other members attending the event via text (Everyone will be in a large text-based chatroom) 00:25-00:30 - A short introductory speech will be given and everyone will be placed in the appropriate chatrooms for the presentations. 00:30-00:45 - The first presenter will give a short 5-10 minute speech (VOIP) explaining their campaign and political vision as answering questions when said speech has completed. 00:45-01:00 - The second presenter will give a short 5-10 minute speech (VOIP) explaining their campaign and political vision as answering questions when said speech has completed. 01:00-01:15 - The third presenter will give a short 5-10 minute speech (Text) explaining their campaign and political vision as answering questions when said speech has completed. 01:15-02:00 - Guests will be sorted into private chat rooms along (5 guests max per room) to talk amongst themselves. Free movement will be allowed, but a limit on the number of guests in any given room will be enforced. (This is to make sure everyone can hear each other and to maintain order within the VOIP environment) 2:00 - The event will conclude, guests, are welcome to stay, however, no more drinks will be served. If you would like to be a presenter, PM me with your credentials and we will discuss it from there. Anyone interested in attending please post down below when you are typically free for 2 hours as well as your time zone. (With this, I am also dropping out of the race, I feel I can get more done as a civilian than a politician.)
  20. Looking for a quick alternative?

    If you can't wait for Identity to come out, and would like to create a character in which you could live a certain lifestyle, check out Grand Theft Auto's multiplayer mod, San Andreas Multiplayer (SAMP). For those of you who know, GTA SA was never an online multiplayer game. Some people (credit to them) made a mod allowing GTA:SA to become online. Through this mod, there have been game modes like Cops and Robbers, TDM, and most popular Roleplaying Servers. SAMP Roleplay servers all are about living the lifestyle of a certain character the player wishes to live. You can roleplay a gangster, cop, radio host, firefighter, taxi man, or just another average joe. Different servers have a certain standard they wish their players should follow. For example, Red County Roleplay: https://redcountyrp.com/ Here is a famous youtuber showing some awesome gameplay. This server requires most players to have experience in Roleplay, so maybe learn a bit before joining. If your interested you should check it out.
  21. To, Dev team i would like to know how far you guys will go with the character customization as usually it is a big thing. So, in terms of facial appearance ageing and all that what should we be expecting And for people that dont have money or dont want to buy someone elses design will there be added default clothing. i would also like to know wether you would be able to copy and paste in desgns for clothing etc. yours gratefully, The IdentityThief
  22. Roleplay Thread

    Hello! Just as a foreword, this is a roleplaying thread. I would hope most would be familiar with how role play works but; I will start with a brief description of my character and placement in the identity world, but lets see where it goes! Purely set this board up for character development, networking and hashing out relationships before we get into the game itself. Enjoy x Setting: Coffee Shop Ryver; an auburn haired mid thirty, pondered over the contents of a criminal file. Delicately stirring her morning coffee, the room filed with busy people, with busy lives all individually not taking a blind bit of notice of each other. She sighed and glanced away for a moment, catching a reflection of herself in her smartphone she thought, if anyone could even deduce at this point that she came from 'a cult' upbringing in Arizona. Wearing her grey designer dress and sling back stilettos, she was a shadow of herself. She retained her free spirit and tenacity to right the injustice's in the world but she knew she had to conform, her one small token to her past was a woven bracelet in muted tones in the colours of her family. Red for love, green for peace and yellow for happiness, the pillars of their belief system.. Although she hadn't spoken to her family for some time. Snapping back to the problem at hand, the file. It was missing most of any hard evidence, she knew this would be a tough one to swing...
  23. Need a Logo For My Company

    Hello fellow citizens! I would like a logo made for a company I am planning to open when I move to your wonderful island. My company is a high-end luxury clothing store called "Keys". The logo should make all of this apparent, and I'd like an actual key on it although its up to you. In return for this you will recieve a place on my design team as well as a free lifetime supply of any clothing which is produced by us until the point comes (if it does) where we decide to use a new logo. Thanks in advance.
  24. Since I saw this game will be some kind cops & robbers, I quickly turned off the idea about 'roleplay'. Everyone will want to be either a cop or a criminal, other jobs or however you call them won't be that fun in my opinion. So criminals will rob robbers, kindappers will kidnap kidnappers, hitmen will kill hitmen and cops will try to hunt them down after that. Maybe I'm wrong since the playerbase will be quite huge, but I've played San Andreas Multiplayer where the playerbase is 1000 and it was still a mess.
  25. [GUIDE] Roleplay terms

    I'm not really sure if this is the right section to post this but I haven't found any similar thread so I thought of explaining some common terms used in roleplay. All these terms are explained based on heavy roleplay gaming servers as seen in Arma 3, San Andreas Multiplayer, Multi Theft Auto and so on. I'll be editing this topic as soon as I come up with anything else! If you have any questions, I'd be more than glad to answer them and I hope you all find this useful. In-character ( IC ) In-character is a term used to describe everything that's related and happening to your character, including the actions he performs, his reactions to different situations and in-game encounters, as well as conversations he has with other characters. Out-of-character ( OOC ) Out of character describes everything that is not related to your character. Most games with an in-game text chat available use the parenthesis " (( and )) " when typing something out of character. For example, you ask your friend to join you on Skype. (( Hey bro, give me a call on skype! )) Metagaming ( MG ) Metagaming is the simple use of out of character ( OOC ) information and knowledge in character ( IC ). It is not allowed on most roleplay communities and it's really common because there are a lot of ways for people to metagame without you realizing it. For example, you're telling your buddy over Skype to come and help you out somewhere in-game because you're being chased by the police and you're almost out of fuel. Why isn't this allowed? Because you're using an OOC way to provide an IC information. How is it done right? You need to figure a way for your character to contact your friends' character about this, such as a text message. Another common example is seeing someone's name above their head and pretending you know them by calling out their name. Your character doesn't know the name of another character unless you met him and he introduced himself to your character, or he is a famous figure you saw on television/newspaper, or some other character told you his name and so on. Powergaming ( PG ) Powergaming has different meanings and it could be described as performing an act impossible for a human, forcing roleplay on other players without giving them a chance to respond, or roleplaying something that hasn't been made possible by the developers. For example, you try to pick up a truck like Hulk and smash the local hot dog stand with it. In first place, that's performing an act that is not humanlike, as well as roleplaying something that's not possible in game because you basically can't pick up a truck. Another good example is when someone is aiming a gun at your face and you immediately pull out your gun and shoot him. That's forcing roleplay on someone else because you didn't give him a chance to react. In real life, it takes a couple of good seconds to pull out your gun and shoot someone while in game you can do it in a second. Powergaming is often encountered around p2w ( play to win ) players, who are always looking to gain an advantage ( often unfair advantage ) over other players and now allowing them to react to a situation. Deathmatching ( DM ) or Random deathmatching ( RDM ) Deathmatching or RDM is killing another character without a sufficient or valid roleplay reason. For example, someone pulls out his gun and shoots you not no reason at all.. Revenge killing often falls under DM/RDM because if your character dies, his memory of the killer and the entire situation that led to the death will be wiped out completely.
