Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen! As I am sure we are all very excited about the release of The Town Square module, and most of us are watching the task list get updated everyday (besides weekends). We are getting veeeery close to the release as there are only 4 objectives left to be done, 2 in progress and in 2 in testing if I remember correctly. When do you believe the module will be released? In the upcoming week perhaps? Perhaps the week after that? Kind regards, Alphoni

is t me or has anyone else been seeing the tracker update but nothing has changed for about 2 or 3 days running?

Hi! In advance, this should not be hate speech. When the Town Square gameplay was announced, most people were very happy about it but when it was presented most of them were not happy at all, yes I understand that most of it was not perfect but you just have to be happy with what you see, that's me also noticed the gameplay trailer with the drug production and I do not want to understand somehow why people just always have to chop on it this and that is wrong. Guys it's a fucking alpha since you're just happy with what you see and you're done, give your critique and that's it. As I said it should not be hate speech and also people who feel addressed it is not meant to be bad but I just wanted to write something about it. (And sorry for the bad english was written with google translator: D) ~ BukkitYT

I just got one question to ask everyone and I'm curious what the results will be. The question is very simple.

Just wondering about the community's feeling about today's stream. I tried to make as many options as possible to make it easy to express yourself.

What are you looking forward to the most? What kind of jobs are you anxiously awaiting? I know, the wait is making our doctors prescribe xanax and other anxiety meds to get us through, but we can benefit eachother as well I really am curious, what do you guys look forward to the most in the coming months/weeks? Me personally, starting my LEO career path, if not a first responder type of path. Similar to what I'm planning to pursue shortly in real life, but a little bit more sped up, and more easily constructed I hope lol

Come Down And Watch https://www.twitch.tv/identityrpg Heres The Vid Also https://www.twitch.tv/videos/267093922 I was also really hoping for a jump animation but feel free to put your input on the stream

Why are there more tasks? When will this town Square be ready if all your doing is throwing more new tasks in?

I want to know if the game will have the enough servers to serve the players without waiting in queue like other new games, and if there will be queue how long will it be?

I think that they should drop the regular rens and repeate stream. I think its relay backwards to limit your time to 15 minutes. Stuff can happen things can break witch is fine. But you should then plan for it. Lets say a problem with recording or stream, client or what ever. And you are left out of time? Futher more as the stream ends people will have questions. It makes more sense IMHO to do showcase first and then the community can ask some new questions. Cheers!

So I just read a post from the moderator Lucky Duck and he said the new website should be released hopefully by next week. Along with the website we should get some gameplay for the TS module. What do you guys think about this news?

Hey everyone, Diddly here. While we all patiently waited for the town square, I decided to comb through the screenshtos forums, trying to see as much as I could of Identity. However, while I saw quite a bit of in-game content, I didn’t know WHERE I would see it. I thought it would be fun if we came together as a community to create a fan made map of what we think the town square will look like. Please comment below and suggestions or ideas where buildings are, and make sure to post any screenshots you find. Please make sure the screenshots are only of buildings or landscape no individual furniture or anything. Just a fun little project I thought we would all enjoy. P.S. Anybody know how many npcs will be in a server, like GTA V or something?

So basically a lot of people said this game was gonna flop right after the failed April 23rd release of the Town Square and the community was going to die. I am here to say those people were wrong. I have never seen the community more active. I love how we are all fighting for the devs and we are loving every time the tasks get updated. Thanks Community. You guy are what helps the game live on!!

I was wondering how long the town square servers will be up and running for. Is it going to be available up until full release or only for a certain period of time like an alpha or beta? Thanks

Opinions are opinions. They’re not facts, and they’re definitely not right or wrong. In this community, I see a lot of support in different ways. You have those who are 100% positive and those who criticize but nevertheless back the game up. Both of these forms are pefectly fine. Support is support, just like opinions are opinions. At the end of the day, we both have the same goal. We all want this game to succeed and we all have supported and most of us pledged to help the devs. We’re all on the same team. I’d like to thank both sidees of this support, especially the critics because I feel they have recieved a little less love and a little more heat. Critics are important, they help you see your mistakes so you can fix them, even if they don’t sound the kindest, they still have the best intentions.

Hi everyone I pledged again (€30) to become MOTORIST. I'm really hoping that this game will be what they promise. I seeing so much bad comments why? Ok people are sick of waiting but how longer we wait how better the game will be. ( thats what i believe ) How long until release Town Square module? ( Task Tracker ) If i could choose i wanna be a police officer in game or maybe even bussines man. What about you guys how do you see this game? What life would you choose?

Hey guys, just wanted to create a forum where you guys can out what kind of vehicles you think will be in the town square. Personally I think bikes will be in TS, as they have shown concept art for it. What do you think?

Hey guys, I’d like to share my guess for the release date of the town square. So far, it has taken the devs 14 days to complete 32/64 of the remaining tasks. So, based off this, it should take another 14 days to complete the other half, giving us a release date of around May 17th. Yes, yes I know different tasks take a different amount of time, but I thought it’d be a fun thing to do while we’re waiting for the much anticipated release of the town square. Share your own guesses down below. Cheers!

Step inside my office! We're in the home stretch, now. The Town Square module is almost ready to go, and now you can follow the Asylum developers as we approach the release. Exactly two weeks ago we launched the new Identity Task Tracker; check out that link, or click the big green button on the Identity website. The task tracker shows you our progress from the point of release a couple of weeks ago until now, and we update every weekday. This tracker displays the data right out of our own project management software that we use to drive and organize the developers inside the studio. All tasks on the tracker are those that remained as of two weeks ago up to the point we consider the Town Square module to be ready for release. These are not all of the tasks we've done (there've been thousands), but just the ones remaining. I'm pretty proud of the progress our guys are making each day. It's only been a couple of weeks but you'll see the majority of those tasks are marked completed! It's really amazing what a team of this size can do when it has such talent. Keep your eye on the tracker; when our important tasks there are done it's time for a Steam release! We're all extremely excited over here. Town Square barber shop interior, work in progress The World Wide Wait An all new Identity website is very, very close to release. In fact, it's so close that we're only waiting on a technology partner to finalize their end of things. Our new website enhances the style of our existing site but is focused far more on improved functionality. A very robust new account system is in place to help you get in the game, and our new shop has some other big requested features! Finally, you'll be able to pay with dozens of methods (PayPal, credit cards, PaySafe and more) and even gift purchases to your friends. With the release of the new website also comes the return of the Identity Insider. The Insider will be a monthly detailed addition to the website, containing all sorts of information you may not have heard before and diving deep into a specific Identity gameplay topic. Our current pledge packages will remain on the website for only one week after the new website launches. After that, many of those rewards will never be sold again and those which are will be a bit more expensive as we prepare for retail pricing. Now's the time to join in the support of Identity's development if you have been on the fence! A look inside the Asylum Everyone at Asylum has been working like crazy. The poor guys are in overdrive and won't be slowing down anytime soon. In fact, just this last week we hired four new programmers to join the team, more than doubling the programmer team size, to ensure that we can get content to you faster. I've myself continued to put a lot of development hours in when I'm not busy with business stuff. I've added some interesting things in the last weeks including substance use and effects. You won't need to spend your time in the Town Square digitally sober! Mark, our graphic designer, has been taking his excellent art into the game engine with the creation of wallpapers for homes as well as a bunch of clothing options. I hoped to have a couple dozen cool wall options available to start with the Town Square release. When I looked over his shoulder today it was somewhere around 300. Wow, I can't even imagine the options when crafting decorations is introduced on top of that. We're pretty much ready to go on the art side of things. Those who follow us on Twitch will have seen Jade/Lee has finished will all of the housing floorplans and the final touches are being done to integrate them into the game today. A lot of our floorplans are based on pop-culture; see if you can identify them. You'll have the chance to walk through them in the Town Square to help with your home-buying decisions. Keep an eye on our Twitch streams! We're going to be showing some cool stuff quite soon. It's been a long wait for the Town Square release, but the wait is almost over. The Twitch Clips If you've been following Identity's development closely, you probably already know that developers stream their work live on the Identity Twitch channel every Tuesday and Thursday. We also use that time to answer almost every question that gets asked about Identity's development and gameplay. Now that we've been doing this a while, we've answered a lot of questions. Our awesome community manager, BeachBall, has taken the time to compile a massive list of questions linked to clips where they're answered by a developer. Get comfy and head over to the Twitch Clips Directory forum thread. If you haven't found this already, be prepared to spend a good bit of time listening to all sorts of awesome information. This is the best place to get to know the fine details Identity! -- John VanderZwet

With the coming release of the town square, I was wondering how big the Town Square Module is going to be. How much of the map are they going to give us? And how will they make the border of the map? Will there just be fences or seomtjing or will it just cut off?

Hey everyone just wanted to express my appreciation for this website, I think it's really convenient and while I know we're getting a new one, I'm a little sad to see this one go. Anyways, the layout is pretty nice and it's really easy to navigate around this site, I love the profile editor as it was easy for me to upload all my youtube art on here. Gonna miss the site, but excited for the release of the new website and town square in the near future!

Hey I noticed the task tracker hasn't been updated in two days when they said they would update it everyday... Thoughts?

Hey everyone! So here is what I am trying to figure out. How big is the town square going to be? I know that it will be big enough for apartments, but will I be able to use my car? Would it even be worth it to use the car, or just walk around? Will there be a countryside for drug making, like in the trailer video? Thanks for anyone who can answer my question.

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_rzR1SzXG-GqTMPfPu9Q9A Go sub to me!!! Once the modules come out I will be posting like crazy on updates and other things. Always been a dream to become youtube famous!!! HAHA https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_rzR1SzXG-GqTMPfPu9Q9A

Hey guys, with the upcoming release of the town square I’d like to know what you like most about Identity so far, or what you want to do in the game. Personally, I’m really excited for the graphics, and just a fresh new modern day realistic game. I’m gonna have tons of fun just doing random crazy stuff with all of you, whether were running a drug cartel or simply owning a clothing shop. Anyways, comment what you’re looking forward to most! It’d be great if we could get the devs in on this so tag them. @Paratus @Beach_Ball
