As said in this thread, it is quite obvious all these items were scrapped from previous packs. They keep getting away with recycling certain objects/animations (woohoo bush, selling table, festival stalls, bonfire, spooky stuff, etc) so I doubt it will stop anytime soon. Just from the trailer alone, I saw quite a few.…
EA has been giving pack exclusive items for awhile (photography/cameras, multiple CAS from toddler/fitness, and build items), they simply could careless. Hot tubs were the sole gameplay item from Perfect Patio. I doubt people bought it for the 3 hairstyles, less than 10 CAS items, and the patio furniture which includes an…
This is sadly the new norm for EA. They have been giving exclusive items from paid packs in free patches for awhile now. For this to be the anniversary “patch” is laughable. For all we know this was a scrapped hot tub from Perfect Patio, which I assume most people only bought originally for the hot tubs. I can’t imagine…
Thanks for the info! <3 That’s how I’ve had to get most of their expansion packs, as a physical copy for half off, but all the stores are close to me anyway.
If you are actively playing and feel like the new world and the ocean will add to your game go for it! :) It will be 50% off eventually like all their expansions and that’s the only way I buy their packs now so I will wait.
I don’t remember the last time the new expansion didn’t go on sale for 50% off by 2-3 weeks after the release date. I know the last 3 did and it was either from Target or Best Buy.
It is a sponsor deal like Katy Perry’s Sweet Treats and Diesel stuff pack, and I think the feedback was mostly uninterested back then too. It’ll probably be the same but this time it’s a brand not many people have heard of and many can’t/don’t want to buy their clothes IRL.
Not that surprising. Even adding the pool swimming animations (with no coral reefs) in the other body of waters would have been better than having to travel to the same beach every time. But as someone mentioned, it is just like how pets/strays are confined to one neighborhood.
What can you use from this pack in other neighborhoods? It seems to me it’s just a world as an expansion pack and not really expanding the game as a whole. Is it possible to be mermaids in other neighborhoods?
Thanks for the links :smile: I know people love the existing content and that’s great! I personally can’t keep playing when they are so quiet about what’s to come and we have no idea what’s coming in these two years. I just don’t see how building excitement for an upcoming pack on the forums wouldn’t be beneficial for the…
I’ve been using the yard sale at my home lot for awhile now. They do just barge in your house so for now on, I will just make a fence around my whole house and lock the one gate. That aspect will probably never be fixed. Sims do tend to buy items pretty fast surprisingly.
I always buy my expansion packs at Target as a physical copy. Cats & Dogs was 50% release day and Seasons was 50% off within two weeks. I bought it release day but got a price adjustment because of their policy. If Get Famous follows the pattern, it should be 50% off at Target in 2 weeks or so. Not sure if it’s the same in…
Towards the beginning of sims 4, the expansions packs did come with discs because I have the first two I believe. But after that, I’ve only seen expansion packs cases with just a piece of paper with the code on it like you’ve seen. They don’t even have physical cases for the game packs and stuff packs in stores.
If anyone bought it at Target before the sale, you can go back and get a price adjustment and get $20 back because it’s been less than 2 weeks. I did that today and got it even though I lost the receipt <3 . Not sure if it works if you paid with cash though. Great deal!
That is true, Sims 2 had the best special NPCs. I think one of the best ones was Mrs. Crumplebottom-she actually hit your sim with her purse when you were doing romantic interactions on a public lot during a date!
I actually have never seen mailmen! Never really looked though just got notifications that they couldn’t reach the mailbox. I guess I was thinking about newspaper kids but that along with house phones is obselete now in most houses I assume.
It seems they're just copy and pasting the mechanics from get to work/dine out and slightly improving each time, it just makes the previous packs look lackluster. They must've chose not to follow the career ladder like the Doctor career because they did not want to incorporate an actually Vet to mentor you since it wasn't…
I really liked university and world adventures. World adventures have tons of exploring to do and I still haven’t done all the possibilities in all these years.
