I have found information from a EA emplyee that suggests there will be at least 7 expansions. I also know their names but i have sworn to secrecy

Jan_831 · 03-08-2009, 05:49 PM

I like this, it sounds like it will be a lot of fun and that it will add some interesting gameplay. I like the idea of having new skills and opportunities. I am looking forward to it.

Agreed, Paris sounds great. In my opinion, it is the most romantic city in the world. It will be a great honeymoon destination!

Robsimsplayer · 03-08-2009, 06:00 PM

YES! A holiday EP! I am so happy! I am definitely getting this!

I think anyone could tell you that their will be around 7 expansions, the previous 2 both had 7/8 eps.

Simlish3 · 03-08-2009, 06:08 PM

Hmmm not too sure about this EP. I didnt like vacation in the sims 1 or bon voyage in the sims 2

Sims2Fan210292 · 03-08-2009, 06:18 PM

I'm pleased about this because I enjoyed Bon Voyage in TS2. Roll on November 16!!!!!!!! I think my favourite place will be the one for France.

zJacob · 03-08-2009, 06:20 PM

Oh noooo ><

I wasn't keen on Bon Voyage for TS2

Why've they done this as a first EP? Couldn't they focus on adding to the existing areas? I'd much rather have my main neighbourhood rich in features than 3 extra side neighbourhoods that I'll use once or twice before the novelty wears off. It seems an odd decision for a first EP, why not do another OFB or Seasons, or something totally new? And I bet it'll bring those damned loading screens back into the game!

Grrrr

Still, I'm sure I'll still buy it. Anyway, rant over.

I suppose we can find out more by joining your website, like that whole lifetime happiness cheat scam:L

Adzish · 03-08-2009, 06:35 PM

I just hope theres a pets a seasons expansion pack, then I'm all for brand new ideas!

EAUK_Adroit · 03-08-2009, 06:45 PM

It looks great, definitely looking forward to this!

Tom · 03-08-2009, 06:46 PM

Meh, looks good. But too much for my computer.

Roo · 03-08-2009, 06:47 PM

Hope we get another Town & some more kids things. The range of kiddies toys etc is just a bit miserable.

Didn't like BV much, doubt I'll like this either, but I'll get it.

mand82 · 03-08-2009, 07:24 PM

woohooo cant wait

SunburnedPenguin · 03-08-2009, 07:37 PM

I am very exited about this woohoo!

Same here. And neither did I. BV got a tad boring once the novelty of being able to go on holiday wore off. However I liked the items that came with it, Like the display shelfs.

Anthony · 03-08-2009, 09:32 PM

I'm really not keen on the name of the EP. It sounds like a five year old's playground.

x_FrauDoktor · 03-08-2009, 09:40 PM

Ah, so they're going with a Bon Voyage type expansion! I never got that EP for TS2, so I don't really know what it'll be like. But I look forward to it!

Sparkleuk · 03-08-2009, 10:21 PM

Having just read the IGN interview this is not at all what I would have expected for a sims game. Where has my open sand box gone? No wonder I've given up playing and now just enjoy building. I don't want to tell EA's story. I want to tell mine. Having to solve puzzles simply in order to move into a new room is not what I like doing, that's why I play(ed) the sims.

*is very sad*

I hope I feel differently when I find more information

x_FrauDoktor · 03-08-2009, 10:33 PM

I think you're taking what they said out of context. I think when they mean 'challenges', it's like the Opportunities in the base game. Not like in a puzzle solving video game at all. P:

Phll363 · 03-08-2009, 10:57 PM

i think you can go in the tomb and go explore it to find treasure but you have to solve puzzzles, but if you don't like this you can do other stuff in the town, so tharts only a part of the game that you can choose to do.

by the sounds of that interview some one posted sims will be able to live permanently in the the new holliday towns, this will be a good feature i was anoyed we couldn't do this on BV.

No, sorry but that's EXACTLY what they said. It's the answer to one of the questions and specifically says (and I quote) "The player will need to solve puzzles to get from room to room--you can't just click in the treasure room and say "Go Here" anymore. Using your sims' skills, special items and figuring out a puzzle will be how to get through the multitude of areas we've set up for you to explore. "

It's the answer to the last question in the IMG interview.

If I wanted an RPG, I'll buy a different game, I don't buy other games because I don't like RPG.

But like I said, I hope to hear more information that will change my mind. I WANT to like this game.

GeminiRee · 03-08-2009, 11:50 PM

Sounds good! I'm surprised its a holiday EP first, but definitely looking forward to it.

Hmmm...

I actually like it, it makes it more interesting and something not that easy to complete/do everything in the game quickly if you get what I mean.

Give us a trailer please EA!
