Upcoming Premium Content: Greenhouse Venue (SimsVip)

«1
I'm suprised that no one has posted this yet! While checking out my 'hourly' dose of SimsVip, i stumbled upon a new Venue!!!

http://simsvip.com/2012/11/13/upcoming-premium-content-greenhouse-venue/#more-18144

(All credit goes to Simsvip, just thought i'd share it for all!)

However, feel free to share thoughts on this thread. I for one, already love it! I am actually considering to get it, since i don't have simpoints at all, (hoping for a reasonable price!)

EDIT: Sorry, i actually just noticed that SimGureTaterTot actually revealed it. Sorry :(

    Just seen this now it looks amazing, the new content sounds brilliant! The only thing I'm dubious over is the price :shock:

    The reason why no one has posted yet is because there is already a thread for it:

    Thanks for sharing, ThoseDaysAreOver. I missed seeing the other thread because I rarely look up there. I am thrilled with the new content even though I shudder over the price tag.

    *Happy sigh*

    Glass roofs... :D

    GLASS ROOFS!!! :D:D:D

    I've been waffling on about glass roofs and now... *another happy sigh*

    Not only that, but a green house, a watering thingy and super special magic compost!

    I'm happy.

    Thank you store team! <3<3<3

    *walks off thinking of all the wonderful things to do with glass roofs*

    Back again! And where should this go in my world?!

    I'm going to make a victorian garden centre for the farming side of town, and a giant greenhouse in my camopus next to the science facility and butterfly pavillion. I'm going to make a train station too! Gurus! Stop distracting me from my coursework! :lol:

    OK, it says there are four roof pieces, but I only spot three, straight, inside corner and outside corner. I wonder what the last is? A smaller or bigger straight?

    Anyway, I wonder if it shields from the weather.

    Glass ceiling tiles!?! Yippeee! I will have this.

    Now not to be greedy, but EA, if ya'll wanna fit a pool slide into this venue somehow, or throw that out as PC store item soon, you go on right ahead and do so.
    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.

    Not cool EA. This was most likely removed from Seasons. Not happy about this at all.

    I know it's frustrating when it seems like something should have been included in the ep. It's worth bearing in mind, though, that the ep and store teams are seperate, so it's unlikely that a fully-developed set would be removed from the ep and sold in the store instead.
    I'm not sure if I'll be getting Seasons, so personally I'm pretty happy that this is store content.
    You can still find me on my old My page (http://mypage.thesims3.com/mypage/GreenCats), and see more of my game-play pictures and CC-free uploads at gcsims.com

    Wow! This lot looks delightful.
    I really liked the casino lot but this takes the cake. Best lot for my game play yet. I'm so looking forward to it.
    Thanks for the heads up.

    So excited about this. and yes as someone said, The EP, SP and Store Teams are all different and each doing their own projects. So no, it just seems like it should have been in Seasons, and if seasons hadn't been released before this, when it did come out people would still whine and say it should have been in the game EVEN if the greenhouse had came out first. They fully concentrated on the Weather Effects in Season, that and the Much Requested Holidays, albeit, Politically Corrected so no one is offended. Besides what else could have went in Seasons, as most the stuff from Sims 2 Seasons has already been in the game from day one. I, for one am buying the set when next I can afford it.

    I treat it as such:

    - Gardening came with the base game, not seasons.

    - Even if we didn't get Seasons, we would have probably gotten this too.

    - Players who don't/can't obtain Seasons can enjoy this addition with or without weather and for aesthetics, which I think many players wanted greenhouses.

    - Be glad it exists at all, there are plenty of content ideas and suggestions that have yet to make it into The Sims 3, and not everything can be added so I'm glad something like this is added one way or another.

    - It will be a "rip-off" when they charge you for this content and the requirements to use it is Seasons. Then one could make a valid point that it shouldn't have been sold separately. 8)

    Will my paycheck be empty in one day? Probably LOL

    I'm very excited about this venue. I like the gardening aspect of the game, but not as much as my daughter. I showed the greenhouse to her, and I swear I could see little hearts floating above her head. We definitely will be getting it, and I doubt that for a while, I'll be able to play sims, as my kid will be on my computer.

    If we're actually thinking about this logically *GASP* I know it's a really hard notion to sell on these forums! Then the greenhouse was in the conceptual stage at the time of SN. Why, you ask? Let's see, we have potters for indoor plants from SN AND this is obviously an extension of the PvZ deal with Popcap also from SN hence the PvZ sunflower.


    Oh logic, you so cray with your sensibility.
