Just played the beta a few times, I really can't wait for the final game to come out!

But the beta was so limited, and each section of the region Maps were quite small. I still haven't figured out the best size to have each block of street set. The density of the zones now depends on the size of the roads that are surrounding it. The best I could do is get 36000 population within 1 hr of play time so far.

Pre-ordered the digital deluxe version... hopefully this game has enough players that EA will not be shutting down the servers any time soon.

Just pre-ordered it on Origin.
Over here in Australia if I pre-order it, it comes to 99.99 (digital deluxe)
In canada, it's 79.99 + a 30 dollar coupon for future purchases.
thank god I set up a VPN from home...

There is a slight chance that it COULD possibly go on Steam. Sims wasn't on Steam until recently.

I'll probably be pre ordering the Digital Deluxe version

there's this slight hope in me from this article at joystiq.. but i have a feeling it's like maybe less than 5% chance that it'll happen

It might be activated at 9pm PST (which is 12am EST so...). Kinda lame that we can't preload though
