yey! ive been waiting soooo long to see another update! im excited again!

The possibility of day and night in VV4 is great since there is a telescope.

The 3 rock formations on the map in the sea reflects the 2 rock formations in another screenshot where they are trying to fish. Must be something significant to a puzzle.

Oh yeah! The 1st sneak peek shows a tribal chief over a tribe in the night. the huts are lighting.

The rocks from the fishing preview are not the same as the three little ones in the one with the 'chief'. The ones in the fishing preview are too close to the dock!

What's the big deal about night and day? I personaly would hate to see night time. Would be a pain to find collectables in the dark. Plus, wouldn't your villagers need to sleep?

beta is "in-trying" or LDW stuff is now trying the game whether it has bugs or not. :-).

You guys just can imagine how EXCITED i am about this!. Since the first preview by Carla, we took 47 days for next preview, and also from 98 - 100%

I hope that the game wouldn't release 47 days after this preview were posted, and i believe, it will released soon

I still love those screenshots! The mausoleum rocks! Yeah, it is more 'modern' than the roster of the dead in VV3.

I also spots some "wooden jetty" like thing. And also, the sea looks deeper when the wooden jetty is there! LDW are so genius

I have a guaranteed that VIRTUAL VILLAGERS SERIES will be a grand hit for gamers since the released of 4th installment. This is because the differences between each game, and also, LDW makes us curious on every mysteries and stories in the game, and make us want to know more about Isola!

I just noticed in the 3 screen shot, there is a button for trophies. I don't remember that being an option before. Wonder, is it for reaching mile stones for things we control such as reaching a certain population or collecting so many mushrooms? Are they earned by things we don't have so much control over such as villagers that have accomplished a certain task such as caught so many fish etc....the possibilities are endless.

Maybe it's like ft, where you get trophies for the magical fish.

maybe its like vv3 where you got recognition ...trophies or achievements or whatever they were called... for doing things like getting 1,000,000 tech point or collecting 500 mushrooms or what have you.

lol that trophy's button was in the very first screenshot and we talked about everything else but it. i am ashamed to say i never noticed it. was to busy looking at the tree and the waterfall and the moat and everything else i guess

Was thinking about the kids in the mausoleum and it led me to a theory. I think we have all made the assumption that that screen shot was from later in the game after we have lost some villagers. But suppose it is from the start of the game and those are the villagers that inhabited that portion of the island before our new tribes arrival and our new tribe has buried them.

Our new friends arrive in some fashion that has stranded them and they find the whole island dead or dying at the start of the game, including those villagers they had to bury. They then disscover the "Tree Of Life" is not giving off the energy it once did to substain life and their only chance for survival is to find out and correct whatever is killing the "Tree of Life"
