Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/19/1001:16 AM
Here is a sneak peek of VV4 -- Enjoy!
We are AIMING for a launch on Monday 22nd. "Aiming" because there is always the chance that we get delayed for one reason or the other. Thanks for support and your patience.

Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/19/1003:22 AM
It looks positively fantastico! I can't wait...I am taking Monday and Tuesday off from work :-) Thanks for the personal touch it was great!! Congratulations!
Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/19/1003:28 AM
What a great team we have working for our enjoyment, thanks to everyone involved! And the wait was well worth it, especially seeing it was because an even more important launch! Cute cute baby.
The island looks like the best one yet. I can't wait to dive in and find the secrets but I'm gonna have to practice some tough disipline on myself next week. Moving the following weekend so I can't get the game because I will never get moved if I buy it before hand! Ah, what a great way to unwind and relieve the stress afterwards!
Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/19/1004:28 AM
It looks amazing! Congratulations LDW! I'm actually glad it will be coming out Monday because by next Friday my big project will be due so once im done with that guess what i'll be doing, lol.
Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/19/1004:38 AM
Havoria: *talking in a weatherwoman's voice* Monday there will be chances of serious forum and main site server down age And later on Monday evening going into Tuesday, there will either be a chilling silence streak on the forums due to playing the game.
But on Wednesday there will be HIGH chances of the forums busting to the seems and causing a universal flood
For the weekend report, forget about getting to any of the forums on LDW as the rushing traffic will be paralysis to even travel in. The best thing to do is to stay at home and play VV4 This has been Havoria on the 11:00 clock news, now back to you, K
Seriously though I'm extremely hyped about the game, and the baby is so cute!!
Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/19/1005:08 AM
**doing the happy dance** YAHHH only a few more days- I can't wait!!!!! The game looks amazing I love the new map especially the lagoon in the bottom right and the huge waterfall. I can't wait to pick out my own tribe!
Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/19/1005:29 AM
OH MY GOODNESS!!! I can't wait!!!!! the baby is adorable Arthur and Carla! congrats to both of u! Havoria, I believe u have the gift of intuition as i believe what u said will be the way it happens! Kudos lol
Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/19/1005:39 AM
EEEEEE!!!!!!!!!! I'm SO EXCITED!!!! *bouncebouncebouncebouncebouncebounce* This is awesome! I'm so curious about the game now! I can't wait to try it!!!! As soon as I saw the video I literally almost shouted "The VV4 preview video is up! EEE!" And I was flailing and fangirling all over the place. I can only hope my family doesn't lock me up before the game comes out!
Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/19/1005:51 AM
Your little boy is so adorable!
I loved getting to see the whole island, which looks fantastic. When the Map button was clicked my eyes nearly popped out of my head; I hadn't expected to see the whole map!
Thanks for the preview, it was awesome. I always enjoy seeing the videos and I think things like that make LDW more accessible than a lot of other game companies where you don't have a clue who is behind the games.
Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/19/1007:27 AM
I was all excited when I saw that the preview video was available and rushed to watch it. But alas--though I tried several times, when I clicked on the link all I got was "Internet Explorer cannot display the web page." (This happens a lot when I click on links.) I tried typing the URL in and got the same thing. I sure hope that when the game does come out I will be able to play it.
Re: So what did you see in the sneek peek? (SPOILERS) - 02/19/1009:10 AM
Yes it kind of looked that way to me too. If we can it will be neat. Saw what I think may be the door to the mausoleum in the upper left corner. The one thing I didn't see though was a food source so maybe all we will have is fishing to start. I didn't notice a place for crops either. Oh well will have to explore the whole thing once I get it.
Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/19/1011:32 AM
WOW!It looks like it is going to be another great game.I only buy from aveyond and last day of work.I am glad i just finished aveyond-the lost orb.Now i can buy and play vv 4.
Re: So what did you see in the sneak peek? (SPOILERS) - 02/19/1012:02 PM
Bah Humbug!
The firewall here on my office computer doesn't allow us to access YouTube so I'll have to wait a whole seven hours at least before I get to see the video! I see that a couple of others can't access the video either; if they are at work they might have similarly miserable employers. There's also the possibility parental control software might be set not to allow YouTube on home computers.
Still, seven hours is less time to wait than for the release.
Thank you for the video update, nice to meet you and congrats on your baby... How beautiful! I am looking forward to the 22nd... I am a Virtual Villagers Series collector. Cheers!

Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/20/1012:52 AM
Thank you and congratulations Carla and Arthur!! The video is just great
After the initial excitement and some gentle 'fangirling' I am now scratching my head, wondering what time VV4:The Tree of Life will be released and trying to work out the time difference. I might have to wait until Tuesday in Australia!!
Francesco is just gorgeous and well worth the 2 months delay

Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/20/1004:35 AM
Again, we'll ask very nicely that you stay on subject. Some people are annoyed over the amount of editing/deleting that's been done so far, but I assure you it could be much more.
Our goal is NOT to be a bunch of mean old moderators, but we do intend very much to keep this forum clean and on track.
This thread is intended to be about the sneak peek video. Your comments should relate to that subject.
Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/20/1006:11 AM
Wow! This game looks awesome! Can't wait to get it! I really appreciate Arthur taking the time to personally introduce us to the game and to introduce us to his son. I've never seen another game developer do that and it makes me realize what a special company LDW is. You put love, care, hard work, and time into your games and it shows.
Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/20/1006:53 AM
Yeah! I finally got to watch the preview video. I don't know what the problem was (see previous post), but just for the heck of it I clicked on the link again tonight and got through. Like the rest of you, I can't wait to play this new chapter of Virtual Villagers.
Thank you Arthur, now we can put a face with the name, lol. Cute baby too!
Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/20/1007:24 AM
Wow! Thanks for the sneak peek. I am really excited about VV4 now. I LOVE the idea of being able to create and choose what your starting tribe will be like. I'll probably do something hard like all children or all nursing mothers.
Download Mozilla Firefox, an Internet Browser. My Internet Explorer would not allow me to view the video either.
The video should be viewable on either browser. If you are having trouble seeing the link, try this one. If that don't work, you should check your firewall & security settings.

Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/21/1007:51 AM
Thank you for your diligent work on the newest VV game. I'm sure it's been quite a journey nurturing both your lil guy and the game, and we know that both take much time and patience. While I'm just as excited as everyone here to meet my new villager family, it is as exciting to me to know that you have both been busy with your newest miracle, Francesco. Thank you again for your hard work to please us VV fans, and I leave you with this quote, which makes the newest release that much more memorable

Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/21/1008:04 AM

p.s cute baby really like him/her arther and carla well done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Virtual Villagers 4 Video - Sneak Peek - 02/21/1008:39 AM
I am really excited, and wanted to discuss this game. To bad the thread I made to do so was merged with this one. Who wants to read through 7 pages of people saying "looks great" just to find the 2 or 3 posts that say "did you see...".
I just check today, and OMG, this were driving me crazy. I'll check back tomorrow, and maybe i still didn't have cash to buy it. So, what to do, i have to download the trial Can't wait till tomorrow.
Thanks for the sneak peek of VV4 I'm very exciting - it's the first time I will take part to try a new LDW game on launch day! Congratulations LDW and thank you for such unique games
we've got more snow on its way in the UK so im hoping that ill be snowed in tomorrow so i can spend all day on VV4! otherwise im in work until 6.30pm amd wont be able to play it until then also i cant wait to see what that fossil of the big fish is! it looks really good!
As you know Arthur posted a video on the soon-to-come VV4!!!! While he was scrolling around the 'gameworld' I saw pegs sticking out of the ground-they were colored-. I thinks it is possibly a bridge? What do you think it is?
PS. I rewatched the video and when Arthurs 'hand' hit the construction sights the bridge part said stream obstruction: 100.
its out soon cant believe it i'ma download it and get full version and then play it this is awesome can't believe it YYYYYYYYEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH this is gnna be awesome sssswwwweeeeaaaaatttttt dudes MY dads gnna try get the vv4 series But if he cant oh well
Re: I saw something in the video! - 02/21/1010:18 PM
Here's to Brainstorming!!
Click to reveal..
I do not know about a bridge but if you look closely as he scrolls over the site where "stream obstruction 100%" comes up there is a empty stream bed that flows to the tree. Then if you look around the tree there is sort of the same thing that then flows around each side to a little pool which then falls into another pool that connects to that empty river bed that leads out on the left hand side. There may come for a need to build a bridge after that stream is flowing. Also when he scrolled over the "main hut" it asked for "3 more herbs". Right next to the pot is a grill and what may be a sifting box( heres hoping). I'm hoping that the main hut can have a roof built over it or everyones gonna be getting a little wet. As for the poles on the cliff, I have not a clue.
Re: I saw something in the video! - 02/22/1012:00 AM
I noticed that there's a lot of dry streambed in the game. It appears to me that once we get that obstruction out of the way the water will not only go to the tree, but also pool in a couple of areas and flow through the village.
Re: I saw something in the video! - 02/22/1012:08 AM
yup noticed it too! soooooo exited! to me it appears as if they planted a lot more puzzles or interactive spots into the map. But then again, that might just be my wishfully thinking
Re: I saw something in the video! - 02/22/1007:08 AM
Go to bed? AND SLEEP? LOL OMG -- guess I'll give it a try -- but rest assured, instead of sugar plums -- my dreams will be full of little squirts running around the lagoon in VV4! LOLOL CONGRATS LDW, both on VV4 but especially the new little baby that has joined the production team! Have card # memorized -- ready to SPEND!
Re: I saw something in the video! - 02/22/1007:38 AM
my dad couldn't get me the game so i guess im'a have to get the trial and everything. oh well :(:(:(:( guess this isn't my best day ever :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(
Re: I saw something in the video! - 02/22/1004:46 PM
See this thread. Arthur has said that it won't be released in the morning, so at best it won't be for several hours yet. He also warned that it might even get bumped to Tuesday or Wednesday if they encounter problems.
Re: I saw something in the video! - 02/22/1010:23 PM
I mean no disrespect at all in saying this, but asking every second and griping that the game isn't out yet, 'in my opinion' is rude, and does nothing more than compound their stress level in trying to please us. The LDW team hasn't let us down yet, and whether it's today, tonight or a week from now, it WILL be worth the patience they are due.
Re: I saw something in the video! - 02/23/1003:17 AM
I can't think of a better place to put this, so.... BRAVO LDW!!! VV4 is awesome. I LOVE it. I don't have the money for it just yet (unexpected spending ) but I'll have it sometime soon this week. You can count on my purchase!
I might have to wait until Tuesday in Australia!!
o well i guess i could wait for the peoples to start saying there names and keys 
BRAVO LDW!!!
