High School pack is CONFIRMED! Let's talk about a potential EP for winter

Mak27

No poll this time. Just talk about potential EP for winter season.

• Freetime? Hobbies, crafting, new activities
• Generations? Family oriented gameplay or anything related (if something left?)
• Fast Lane? Cars, motorbikes, garage stuff
• Showtime? Casinos and hotels, performance careers,
• Supernatural? Zombies, fairies, better occults
• World Adventures? Egypt, mummies, tombs?

I believe bands will be part of High School pack. Can you imagine a prom party without bands?

Maybe showtime, but mixed with hotels and casinos

Zombies, and let them attack Sims, not plants.

Or what about... zombie vs plant Sims?

Or superheroes/villains?

Or mad scientists and experiments?

I am hopeful for a World Adventures themed EP with 3 very detailed worlds to explore and hotels/resorts. I think multiple destinations in one EP is unlikely however.
*Egypt, Australia, Italy would be my wishlist

Based off of hints and speculation if we get a second EP I think we will finally get a music based pack with gigs, bands, maybe expanded singing. I don't think bands will be a part of the upcoming expansion.

I'm not optimistic about a second expansion this year, I really hope we don't get a repeat of last year with just a refresh and kits in the fall/winter. I want content, I hope they keep it coming.

I believe a bands Game Pack could fit better than an entire Expansion Pack, unless is a TS3 Showtime like, including hotels and casinos for a full entertainment experience

FreeTime or Generations but not until next year. I think we are down to just one EP a year.

Well, winter in the US ends on March, so we can have an EP between December to March and another between June to September (summer 2023)

Yes, easily. Every single prom I've heard of has used a DJ, not a band.

In my prom party, there's local bands playing some themes, with singer included. And of course, DJs.

It's a teen/high school focused pack, teens dreams with bands, either be in a concert or form their own bands.

Also driving...

Hmm well not even confirmed we will have 2 eps last year too ended with just one

but if we do idk
the thing is I don't think they will do similar gp/ep in row so probably no occults for rest of year

(unless winter is coming and they do like dragons or something cause technically thats pet content right but thats probably false hope too)

and tbh I don't think we are ever getting the "generations" ep

because weddings was generations content in ts3

so was school/teen things
which they're most likely doing for this july pack

it'll probably just keep spreading to trillion different packs

also as for hobbies or bands or like games stuff they might have added with high school cause lot of it was university content before in older games

aaand then theres still the marketing standpoint of what they'd be likely to release at winter time

I don't think driving is much of winter theme, well if they are ever gonna even add it sounds more like summer theme to me

i could see showtime cause theres lots of partying around winter time and its kinda continuation to the school/teen theme without like being about school also they added that guitar to werewolves for whatever on earth is the reason so it feels like hint

then again i guess driving +showtime might make nightlife type pack too cause that was a thing in past and limos be nice addition to career rewards

unsure if world adventures travelling would feel like winter pack but i guess theres always home alone

and i feel like we may be more likely to see hobbies as side things to other pack themes than as the focus of whole ep cause thats how its usually been with ts4

like say world adventures+ pottery or nectar making skill or whatever

or then as smaller kit or stuff pack things probably

I‘m hoping for a Hotel themed EP where we can manage resort hotels. House boats could also return! Even if they‘re just decorational, I love the feeling of living on a boat.

catloverplayer

My bet is a Romance Pack or Hotels if we get a Winter Expansion.

I don't see band in trailer so no.
Bands will mostly be next gameplay pack so EA could completely focus on it

LeGardePourpre

Eco Lifestyle, Cottage Living and High School Years are new themes so I expect to see something new :

• Casino
• Daycare & School
• Royal Family
• Billionaire Lifestyle
• Brazil (apartment + beach, surfing)
• Chinese Countryside (paddy fields)
• Polar Exploration (Greenland)
• Australian Desert (kangaroo)
• North Africa / Middle East (Arabian Nights, belly dance)
• All About History (Viking, caveman, dinosaur, ...)
• Swamp (Voodoo witch, alligator)
• Wild West (Ghost town)

While still thinking Showtime was the weakest EP for TS3 I miss the singing career very much.

I would love to have bands but only as a game pack

crocobaura

I would love a 1000 nights, Alladin inspired Arabian world with sand dunes, bazaar, lots of carpets and big gold jewellery. Also, harem pants and belly dancing. And goats.

I would love to have hotel/resort pack! It was so fun to play with hotels in the sims 2 bon voyage. I was so disappointed when there wasnt any hotels in island living. I need poolslides, poolbars, amusement parks, more vacation worlds etc.

Bands could work as an EP if they expanded it beyond rock bands. Introducing a band after school activity, expanded additional instruments like string and brass items. Addition of music festivals your Sims could attend if they are not pursuing a music career. Expand singing career like the acting career. They could have different types of venues to play in like in S3. They could pair it with a highly themed world. They could pair it with more amusement park type things, one of the venues for musicians could be town fairs or carnivals...

Or they could do a gamepack, I'm not opposed to gamepacks.

Simsfan19

I forgot to mention that we already have honeymoons in MWS but no hotels. So hotels would be a perfect add for the game. Where would i take my sims for a honeymoon? Camping? I dont think so. 🤭

EternalSunshine

I would be interested in any of the following:

• Freetime - Hobbies, including new crafts, skills & activities
• World Adventure - Egypt, mummies, genies, tombs, bazaar, camels, new harvestables
• Supernatural - occult careers, super heroes/villians, fairies, zombies, improved existing occults
• Hospitality & Heists - Casino, resort and hotel management, performance careers, return of the NPC entertainers, plan & execute active heists & NPC burglars
• Amusement Park - Active carnival rides, performance careers, fair foods, confections, contests, games & arcade
• Showtime - bands, concerts, symphonies, music festivals

I would love to see the Genie and imaginary friends make a return to the game. It was such a great feature to be able to make unusual creatures like that a part of your family, and for them to not be included in TS4 at all seems like a step backwards in my opinion. If there was an expansion centered around this kind of content, I would happily pay full price for it.

ChadSims2

Going off of the last survey we have seen in which High School obviously won as it should have I think the next expansion will either be Bands or Modern Love and Romance as I feel one of these would have been second in demand. Now obviously the next expansion should be cars but it was not an option sadly.
