Petition For New Sims2 EP

[Aquarius]

yeah I tend to stay away frrom petitions too. Especially since the odds of them working are extremely slim

[HappyThoughts]

in a perfect world they would bundle the whole game, meaning S2, include all the bonus material all the prepaid people recieved, with add-ons (like what maty fixes, only maxis made for once).  I think if they took the time to bundle it, with fixes and neccessary programs like homecrafter and bodyshop the game wouldn't be so hard to run for lower end machines.  Think I'll post this at the EA site and see what response I get there.

Good luck, but be warned that they are ban happy jerks over there.

lol awww thats so nice of you jenna, thanks for the warning too Paden, I've never posted there before, I'll try to be clever and keep it unassuming or get banned so I can talk about it on here.

**Also not to beat a dead horse, but don't they realise the sims2 would have lost all it's popularity years ago if it weren't for the great mods and grand designs of their creative customers.  Expansion packs and Stuff packs are fine and dandy but without the custom content, I know I would have been finished playing with this game after pets.

EA never gave a soaring rats behind about the fans, all they care about is taking the fan's money.

  The thing that gets me the most about TS3 is most of the new features introduced can be added to TS2 with a few mods. (Sleeping on public lots, triplets and quads...) and TS2's graphics beat TS3's by a country mile, so with a little modding, there isn't much difference between the two for me. Plus, if they ever did give a rat's behind about the petition, we'd never get the original Sims 2 back. Will Wright sold off the Sims, and the original Maxis team is gone. Which means, it would never be like good ol' TS2 again.

I highly doubt that EA will make an EP for a game that isn't being produced anymore,besides,most people actually prefer the Sims 3 over the Sims 2.But you wouldn't know that from all of the whining on the internet.

[Aquarius]

really? I've yet to meet somebody in real life who's liked the sims 3 better either.

[Paden]

From everyone that I've spoken to online as well as in person, which are a great many, all of them believe that Sims 3 bites the proverbial wiener. They don't whine, they don't whinge, they state quite unemotionally and matter-of-factly that the game sucks the big one. The pure lack of research into what makes a good game of this sort shows in the sheer borkedness of the boxed crap that bears the name, "Sims 3."

Aint that the truth! Even though its a good game, I hate TS3 SO much. It is buggy, no machine can run it properly, and the lack of CC support. AND the updates corrupt the game Why did they do this? EA betrayed the fans by releasing a rushed and flawed game.

I've got up to World Adventures, and I hardly play it.   

But, I will say this much, the rate of speed that they're cranking out the EP's and SP's spooks me. How freaking buggy are these things going to be?!!? Seems like "overkill" to me.

As for signing the petition, not in a million years. After what happened with the other one, which I didn't sign, makes me very very leery to sign one at all.

[fraroc]

then boycott EA like I am doing

[EKozski]

That, I cannot do. They put out two other games I play. Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2. And, at the end of the year, Mass Effect 3.

I no longer get any products from EA Games, but that is due to the economy and a few other reasons that people at this site already know. Thing is, people are going to do what they are going to do and you can't force them to believe or do as you do. It's called freedom of choice and we are all born with the right to exercise it.
