Apartment Life- EP 8?

[GingerGal08]

I am DEFINATELY not getting Apartment Life.I already have mods to do the job for me. (They should have made a hospital EP instead.)

Definitely not fake. Got a little leaflet thingy in my Kitchen and Bathroom SP ^.^

I think if they pull it off it'll be awesome. There have only a few been a few things I've wanted to see in the game and that's one of them - along with the option to go to work with your Sims and to be able to drive to another persons house as you would a Community lot

But I do agree with the bits about Superstar and Makin' Magic. People have been after those for ages so why not bring those out? Even if they're trying to stick to real life as best as possible Superstar wouldn't be too far stretched as people do get famous. Magic might be a little far but still if that's what's going to get them money why aren't they cashing in on it?

I don't so much want SS or MM as far as being a celebrity or a magician. I was more wanting the cool objects. But as far a SS I would like to see a home studio where one could make indepedent films/music and have it featured on that Sim's TV/Stereo (like novels do in Free Time) as well as make money off of the sales.

Either way I am looking forward to apartment life.

I think it will be great. I'm glad their doing another one before the big 3 comes out.

[Sam the T-man]

It'd be a great addition for not only urban life, but also the semi-rural. Not everyone can afford to buy a house - in fact, here in Britain especially, it's getting nigh impossible to do so these days, especially for first-time buyers :pale:

I'm also drooling over the prospect of the many storytelling possibilities it'll bring... Only thing is though, Inteen won't be updated past FT, unless someone else fancies taking it on (as I recall, jase gave guys that option). Plus all the other mods that'll need updating/replacing/whatever else...

[Spookylicious]

I have been wanting a Carnivale or Amusement Park for the longest time.There is already hacks/mods out there where you can already have apartments in your game.I don't like to play with to many sims on a lot it slows game play down.I have no interest in this expansion pack,and it's a little to late for AL it should of been one of there first releases.

[Captain_Shepard]

If you got $ send them to EA! You'll get a free t-shirt and personal hug!
/sarcasm

They'll release  more two expansions even if The Sims 3 goes on schedule. It's more profit for them.

[ísarah]

You can already kinda make apartments with one of the various 'larger household' modifications out there and using those University 'claim' doors, although with those doors the Sims have to live alone for it to work. A modification for door locks that offer an 'allow family' option rather than 'allow household' would make apartments work.

This "Apartment Life" isn't a bad idea, but I don't see how it can comprise an entire expansion pack. There are more EP's I'd rather see, like hospital as mentioned by GingerGal08 or maybe one where you follow Sims to work/school instead of them disappearing for x amount of hours.

Well not sure if anyone else has seen this, however the Sims 2 main site has officially announced Apartment life as 8th EP...and there is a flyer announcing it also in my copy of Kitchen and bath stuff.  You know what I would like??? I'd  like a bedroom and baby stuff pack...that's most of my CC downloads cause the ones included in EA's is rather lacking.  Though I do like the new baby items in Freetime.

[Firestaar1]

Kattenijin..I sooo totally agree with you on not liking the fact that my other families will be carrying on their lifes when you play one family!!!  That is the main reason I am going to wait to even think about getting TS3.  I love the idea that we will be able to SEE our sims go about their day, and they will be able to actually get OUT and around...but I'm not sure I like it enough to give up the "God" factor in my game.  I love making two families and setting it up so that their children fall in love get married etc....that's pretty much going to be impossible from what i've read of TS3

[Shaundak21]

AL could be what we where waiting for. Just think, being able to visit private homes like community lots. Hooking up with a neighbor ( your apartment or Mine). Asking your neighbor to baby sit for you if you have to run to a store and pick up a few things. Low rent. new objects

I already make apartments and whole blocks in my game to simulate that realtime feeling, this EP will just help make it be closer to life.

[Vasculio]

I wonder how much longer we'll have to wait until we get another update about Apartment Life?

[lewisb40]

I just found this: *toots horns* There will be ceilings and spiral stairs!

You can look here and check out Maxiod Shannon's post here.  I am so getting this EP!

Shelves, Mirrors, Paintings, OH MY!

[tizerist]

I wonder, for those of us who like to have multiple properties courtesy of the stay-things shrub, will we be able to do this with apartments also? move back into an apartment when we feel like it? and leave it empty while we live somewhere else?

[Vasculio]

Now that was beautiful... Props to the sims team from adding the ceilings
