Here's a small request.
In future when you do gameplay footage, can you not go so fast? I just watched the 27th July one (I know I'm slow) and was very disappointed to find that you whizzed around the city without actually focusing on anyone or anything for more than about a second.
Yes your graphics (what I could see of them) were very pretty, but I'd like a bit more than a superficial spin of the mouse wheel...

I agree.
The poll on the game's website is getting quite old, so I guess there's a trailer just waiting to be uploaded by the designers.
Focusing on one particular element is something that should appear in the trailer, but it can't last that much. A trailer can't have 100 MB for obvious reasons and its main purpose is to show as much of the game as possible. The problem is finding the right balance between size and the actual content.
Yeah, that was just a quick little teaser. Most, if not all, of the movies from now on will be much bigger/longer.

Ooh, so we should expect a lot of movies then? :D Soon even maybe? :D
/me wonders if Jeremiah is getting paid overtime for posting Sunday evening, or else if he is just as addicted to these forums as we are. :)

Well I for one am getting fed up of being teased... :( (Would do the crying one but I don't know how...)
Whe are just over a month away from release and I still know hardly anything about the game.
Even Sims 2 isn't this cruel...

*shuts down all testosterone based reaction systems no matter how clever their output of quips may seem out of respect for this forum, Traxia's fiancee and my own self policed commitment to being a seriously nice guy here*

If you mean what I think you mean then I know two things.
1) You have a very dirty twisted mind
2) You are very funny
If you don't then it means that 1 applies to me...
Edit: My fiance actually said a similar thing when I was writing that post...

All I ask is that these "bigger and longer" movies get posted on some FTP server where I can use my client program to pause and resume the file at will and not have to rely on a single download attempt via the browser over a dial up connection.

Ah ha! Great minds and all of that. I like your fiancee already. You are obviously a woman with discriminating tastes. ;)

He was chosen on the merit that he asked... of course it helps that he's one of the few people who can keep up with me with gutter trash talk...
He can also program and he's clever. So I'll keep him I suppose...
