Apartment Life- EP 8?
ThatScaryChick:
I really am excited and looking forward to Apartment Life, but I am afraid that it is going to be buggy. Hopefully this EP isn't just some rush job to make some more money...who am I kidding. :-(
kevida97:
As many have said, there is so much that can still be done in TS2 that Apartment Life should not be the last EP. Here is a question. If they are so close together, why are they called "apart-ments"? Sorry old joke but I'm an old man!

Have you been nosing around EA's game lounge too? I went yesterday and from the looks of it your contact is correct. When the guy from Prima said it wasn't the last EP, I thought maybe one more but it looks like they still have two more EP's after Apartment life they're considering releasing. Or maybe I'm understanding that wrong, that's why I asked if you've been looking also. When they're asking if people would be interested in a couple more EP's after EP 8 is released...to me that means they already have them done or in the works? Yes? No?
From what I understand the base game was configured with 10 "slots" for expansions. It would make sense to me to use all 10 just from a point of making money; as I'm sure there will be a large number of people waiting on buying Sims3. Heck, if you got a cow that's still giving milk, why kill it?
I already know personally that I'm not going to like aspects of Sims3. I prefer to controll ALL my sims, ALL the time. I don't want them doing more "on their own" than already happens in Sims2. The whole concept of all sims moving a day forward at the same time, when you can only controll one household at a time makes me po-ed.

Thank you for that information. I really don't care too much what happens to the townies I hardly ever play them. But if I'm investing my time in a family or 6 families I want to know what's going on in their lives. I don't want to come back and they have 6 more children I know they can't support. Or their career has taken a nose dive. They've lost friends. Or worse, they're dead. Does that make sense? I like the idea of the townies growing with them that's why I like the BFF thing in Freetime. It's weird when you have the same children playing/coming home from school with great-great grandchildren and they're still children. I don't even mind when Sims go and do things without me in control. But I don't want the game making major decisions in their little AI lives.

I'm not particularly fussed about the Sims 3. They don't look right. I think EAxis is trying too hard to recreate the success of Sims 2 and they're going in the wrong direction.
Personally I'd love a couple more EP's and a few SP's too as I don't think I shall be getting Sims 3 until there's a load of custom content available. I find the format of the Sims too limiting to play without hacks and stuff.
And I agree Diana. I don't think I could hack having my Sims dying whilst I was off the lot or gaining another three kids which I don't want them to have. Yes, it would be nice for them to age at the same rate as the Sims I'm playing, hence why I also like the aging thing that came with Freetime, but from another angle I enjoy being able to control all their lives and not just part of it.
So yay to Sims 3 going drastically wrong! ;)
