Why Is The Cafe A Rabbithole?

With the registers from World Adventures, could EA not have adjusted them a bit so you could make a working cafe?
In Sims 2, my sims always met for friends at the local coffee shop and I hate that I cant do it anymore it stinks!!!! :x :evil:
I don't mind the cinema or town hall being a rabbithole, but the cafe would only have taken an hour or two! :roll:
Do you agree?

I'm trying to figure out why we needed another Bistro and Grocery. Redesigning existing rabbitholes is not giving us more variety--just another building to wade through as we construct our own community lots.

Happy Simming!
That's the whole point! You are missing the big picture here. It's a stuff pack which doesn't bring any new features.
The Sims 3 has an open world. With a few mods, and other things you could have your own running cafe.
WOW, okay. :?
Even though I would like to see an open restaurant someday, the lack of one in the game simply does not kill playing the game for me, because there are plenty of other new and non rabbithole community lots for me.
Such as the laundromat, consignment shop and beauty parlor.
The Sims 3 is a new game from The Sims 2, if I had wanted The Sims 2 again I would have just continued playing it and not even purchased this one.
Look, i strongly believe rabbitholes will always exist, and they will never be open. To be honest... I rather like them. They add huge character to the game. And as much as I'd like an open café, guess what - WA brought that, so I really don't see the need to get another one, or at least a till that will allow one. I think people are blind to the fact that there's so much things we can do in this game, and people are only looking at the bad points. The rabbitholes are a major part of the game, but I'd rather look at pretty, non-enterable buildings than blocky things. Plus... I'm sure I'm not the only one who appreciates a bookshop can be made with one placement of an object.
And anyway, this IS a Stuff Pack. An Stuff Pack brings no new gameplay elements, or very few. People need to remember that as EA cannot add a whole amount to an SP. I mean, if they were to open RH in this SP, it'd practically be a mini-expansion!
Anyway... I hope what I said made some amount of sense.
In TS2 the whole neighborhood was a rabbit hole.
TS3 is far much better than TS2.
Most of the buildings that exist as rabbitholes in The Sims 3 never even existed in the first place in The Sims 2, and besides, they are awesome neighborhood decor.
Open community lots aren't that great.
I never really liked having to have a loading screen just to go to the store, eat out, etc.
I actually believe rabbit holes are way better than open community lots from ts1/ts2
You actually see your sim go to the rabbit holes, and if you want to eat outside, you can always just use the "eat outside" interaction:P
Rabbit holes are also more efficient because you can control multiple sims at once, and again with the loading screens, time doesn't stand still when you go to a community lot.
P.S I think The Sims 4 will have rabbit holes like The Sims Medieval:P
They will look like rabbit holes but when you go inside they open up like the shels from Late Night.
That is why I think that the sims 3 does not derserve any open community lots and they should turn every building in the sims 3 into rabbitholes since a large portion of their customers now see the rabbitholes as convenient anyways. xD
Y'all already have an open world, so why should you expect or want anything else to be added to the game?
They should even consider turning all of the houses that you are not playing into rabbitholes because it would make the game so much MORE convenient and faster!
When they keep adding rabbitholes, it would a whole lot easier to control multiple sims and it is a lot of fun staring at building whie the sims go inside and it is really pointless having open lots or anything dealing with that.
Rabbitholes was the best thing that they added and I am also very happy that the dev's gave us more rabbit holes than there ever was in the sims 1 and sims 2. Who cares about open lots and having a reason to go out into the town when you have an open neighborhood.
Now hold on there:shock:
I would hate if EA did that
I find it ok for the rabbit holes now, but if they did it to the houses I would be REALLY freakin' mad at EA:evil:
it is true.
Like I said before, In TS2 the whole neighborhood was a rabbit hole. In TS2 you could not even visit your neighbors.
But enough about that, visiting boring neighbors and going to dull community lots and rabbitholes is so much more fun and better than anything that was in previous installments of the sims games. Like I said before, they have tons of satisfied customers now so they should continue to make expansions this exact way and keep adding more rabbitholes and keep cutting back on the gameplay because game play in the sims 3 is pointless because the sims 3 have an open neighborhood.
My feelings exactly as Im controlling multiple Sims, I do not want to have to monitor the whole time. If I want to go into non rabbithole I have many places to choose from BARS, nectary, restaraunt-like in WA i have one in my town, library, parks, beaches, visit a neighbors home, the academy, gym, and art museum.
YOU may think that the gameplay is pointless, but we do not, isn't it a little malicious and troll like to suggest these things?
The things that are you are suggesting are absurd to most of us to say the least, and for someone who is so displeased with The Sims 3, then why aren't you off happily playing The Sims 2 instead of posting these outrageous comments?
If I hated something so much, I would continue enjoying the product that I like, not this.
I agree. In TS3 we have more open community lots than we had in TS2.
consignment shop
beauty parlor/tattoo parlor
nightclubs(mine are not empty and not everyone is standing around)
big parks/little parks
gym/swimming pool
tombs
nectary
the cafes that came with WA
library
the WA bookstore
WA relics shop
WA general store
laundromat
And that is all that I can think of at the moment, my brain is a little fried today(it's Friday after all, LOL).
But I hardly consider that being "closed up", and how can anyone argue that having your Sim get in a car and dissapearing into the great unknown as being better?
The only closed up rabbitholes that I can think of are the workplaces, the bookstore, grocery store and restaraunt.
"...includes new community places, like Scrumptious Nibbles Café, for your Sims to visit too!"
I know I just found out in the fact page. Disappointing but atleast unlike the Diner it will still have an option to eat outside.
I agree. :thumbup:
