Since the last patch of Sep releases Today I'm putting up the October Thread. October could be a Pre Ep Patch if the EP is the first week in November.

    I really hope we're getting a CAS update. Specifically, one that lets us copy makeup/accessories across categories and that helps match up alien disguises. This sounds out of nowhere and unrelated BUT the last patch randomly changed how the game handled aliens in CAS, as seen by the broken alien CC. There was nothing in the patch notes about it, which could mean it's background work to get ready for a bigger update, because otherwise what's the point of changing it? If a CAS update allowed items to copy/paste or be linked, makeup and aliens are the big two needing copy/pasting. It's also a good inclusion step with the new medical wearables, as people don't just magically not need hearing aids when they change their shirt.

    It seems like the Sims team has been doing a lot of requested updates, and we've been asking for makeup/accessory copying for a while. The mechanics are totally doable, based on the fact that a) newer occult forms can be linked, b) mods are able to copy/paste accessories and makeup (and so many of the recent releases are following the most popular mods in the community), and c) CAS already links hairstyle changes across categories. Final point of evidence: the developers are known to hint at future things with each new release, and the only occult recipe from the Home Chef pack uses alien fruit. Coincidence? Probably, but one can hope.

    If the EP is about the neighborhood, I'm guessing an expansion to the neighborhood stories system. I am hoping for YA going off to uni/getting jobs, people getting married and getting divorced.
    Moreover, I advise that the cart button must be destroyed!

    I hope the expansion pack is not an expansion about neighborhood stories. I don’t even use it because I play rotationally.

    I would much rather see cars, or hotels. I don’t know about the alien changes. Since aliens came with get to work, I can’t see how aliens would be affected by a new pack unless they bring aliens to the base game, or have some pack crossover.

    not that I'm complaining but where was it revealed there was a third EP coming this year? Not being snarky, that's a totally innocent curious question I have.
    It's kind of sad that I have to point out that anything I say is only just my opinion and may be a different one from someone else.

    At the Sims Summit recently, along the Stuff Pack!
    It's in the current roadmap, too https://x.com/TheSims/status/1701631113612169532?s=20

    Thank you! I have no idea how I missed that because I did watch that video. Probably distracted lol. But that's great news I think.

    I'm updating my game now. I really hope it's NOT a big update because I hate having to get new versions of my mods.
    All my daily trances, and all my nightly dreams, are where thy grey eye glances, and where thy footstep gleams.
    I dance to the beat of my own drum, no matter how measured or far away.
    I do love a road. You can always be wondering what is at the end of it.

    As of now the EP is called Neighborly but that name may not be final. My guess is it's a real-estate pack with upgraded apartments and a city world. I really hope it brings back hotels. Cars may be added in the pre ep update. Imagine if we get both cars and hotels.

    While I'd love hotels, they're my #1 wanted thing now, I can't see how they'd fit in a "neighborly" type of theme. I know it's a vague term anyways but it brings to my mind strengthening local ties, not introducing a feature that would likely focus on transitory, short term visitors.

    There are hotels that rent out apartments, either short or long term. But given that in the roadmap trailer they showed two keys on a house shaped keychain, I think it's probably something about owning a second home. Or maybe complex door locking system in a bad neighbourhood and they will bring back the burglars.

    Lol, I missed it too when I watched it the first time. I believe it said EP in the images rather than verbally.

    There are also hotels with "Dragon" in their names, such as the Royal Dragon. Dragon hint? 🤔

    They keep teasing about the heart bed so I think that alone increases the chance we may see hotels.

    I'm hoping they'll finally put in a toggle for us to turn off constant Townie spawning. It's just so annoying! I also hope we finally get a multi-purpose community lot so we can have things like post offices,game arcades,etc.
