Imagine this, right. You get these facial recognition tools all over the place these days for security and even social networking sites seem to recognise you. Now imagine this. You have a proper CAS in TS5. Have all the cool features such as we have had in the past few days but also an option (and it should be an option) to upload your own pictures from somewhere and for the game to actually 'Simlify' them.
Cool?
For some players who want to make themselves or their friends then it could be fun. Add your friends in the Sims and make some cheeky edits. Want a celebrity in your game? Get a picture of them and you could get a Sim of them straight up.
This could be a cool feature!
Thoughts?

But if it's totally optional then, yeah, why not? haha!
Is it entirely user-side, or is it like the telemetry data Origin is always collecting?
I barely trust Facebook with my personal information as it is, I don't know if a company like EA, which is hardly benevolent, is really a corporation I want with even more personal data on me than they already have.
Hmm, that's a good point!
Yes I used that before
No one ever is are they? Google just got hit with another suit though people had set their settings not to spy on them and or to share that personal info or give away and or share that personal info.

I'm just thinking sims will end up looking weird, like those photoshopped sims we have now. The skin on the face will probably not mach that on the body, and the face will look weird depending on the conditions you took your picture in.

Don't need facial recognition. Reminds me too much of those janky EA Sports NHL facial recognition tools. If I want a simself. I can make them myself.

On the other hand, I might just get lazy and never make a Sim by hand again. Just upload a picture of a celebrity from the internet...
I don't think the technology is there yet, and I'm okay with it.

For in game it mainly works for MMO and I don't think it would work well for the main series, but do really well for the Urbz sequel game.
I know one former employee of Gaiaonline talked about it with Everquest II.

This is the motion capture which I think would work well for the main series and how many movies and some games are made now:

Motion capture does bring a more human quality to games. There are so many details that the human face makes that years of animation will never capture completely.
Personality,depth,humor,consequences,lore,customization.
So... @StrawberryYogurt, you'd get weirded out by playing with Sims like this? ~evil grin~

or maybe even this:
Nothing wrong with gnomes if you make them look like this.
