Hi guys. How are u all doing ? We've just got Snowy Escape but it looks like another EP is on its way. EA careers website got updated with 2 new job positions looking for Voice Editors to help ship the upcoming expansion pack for The Sims 4! The Voice editor(s) will be working in a 3 months term to help EA release the EP. If i have to predict, i would say that EP 11 will release either March or April since voice editing is the last step in the development of an EP. What do you guys think 
?

Yup! I have performance problems since the last update. My game starts crashing randomly here and there and i cant play it for more than 2-3 hours cause my pc needs a break. Hope we get a good patch soon!
I'm sorry to all the people having issues. And I'm genuinely curious what the cause is because I have 0 issues as always. I played for about 5 hours yesterday. Left it for some hours still running then came back to it later. Just smooth gameplay all around. 🤔
Or maybe they just need more people.
That would be awesome! To be honest, the only thing I can do with my Sims is to create a music bend, which I already did, and now I just need a music band pack, which should include: electric rock guitar, bass guitar, set of drums, flute, strings, and sitar would be awesome to have, then lead vocals and backing vocals, alongside with lead instrumentals and backing instrumentals.
I need proper Bands & Musical Ensembles in my sims. I hope that’s what it’s for. I really do. I do really. Wouldn’t that be nice? It would.
It'll probably take about 1 month to hire someone so that takes us to January, 3 months of work so that's April, pack announcement a month later in May and then release a month later in June/July.
Both 2019 and 2020 have had 1 EP in June and 1 in November so looks like we'll be getting the same next year.
I'm almost certain EA have this thing down to a science now and probably have content in the pipeline for the 6 to 9 months at minimum and ideas going forward for another year or two beyond that. It's just about their internal deadlines and how much Covid-19 has disrupted that to delay and push some of it back.
It's very likely that whoever gets the job may not be able to start until the new year. So it might be that this bit of news could be the next content pack that comes and the end of next year rather than spring or summer.
They use the term Expansion Pack loosly. I think a Gamepack is the next big pack coming in Winter or Spring. We just got an Expansion Pack.
SP in January, most likely, and a GP after before the EP is my guess.
But on another note: Bands? I think a Generations EP is long overdue..
Growing Pains and Life Issues
Life is hard. Now your sims feel those physical and emotional changes as they grow up.
Realistic reactions and emotions bring deeper connections to the world around them.
There was also a mention of bands in the survey
Bands
Go solo or build your supergroup, find your style, and perform your way from YouTube celebrities to sold-out stadiums.
Feel the pressure and demands of keeping the band together, record company demands, and the needs of your adoring fans.
And here are the other options from the survey
Culinary Quest
Take on the role of a master chef.
Find the best ingredients, create recipes, and keep that kitchen running through the dinner rush.
Fan Club Creator
Immerse your Sims in fandom.
Create fan clubs, collect rare memorabilia, and express your love, drive a craze that could take over the town.
NPC Story Progression
Now your neighbors come to life.
Sims outside of your household live their lives from birth, marriage, and death. Imagine the possibilities when the drama can start next door.
Shopping Malls
All your retail needs under one roof.
Hang out, find deals, and discover that perfect outfit for the night ahead in a full retail experience, mall cop included.
Cheer
Immerse yourself in the world of cheerleading where the focus is king and distractions are dangerous. Keep the team together, build routines, and make sure to stick the landing.
Heists
Whether you’re an aspiring Debbie or Danny Ocean, build your team to seek out and recover the stolen artifacts to return them to their rightful owners. Can you execute the perfect plan, or will your team end up in the slammer?
Modern Love and Romance
From love at first sight to digital dating, discover a wide variety of relationship types for your Sims. Explore their desires, taste, and preference. Take them on a journey to discover what works for them.
American High Schools
Cafeteria cliques, racy relationships, and SAT struggles, the halls are alive with the sound of drama.
I'm going to assume that whichever two or three won from this survey will become the next few packs depending on how many people took part in the survey and how divided each category was. For instance, if more than 60% voted for one of those then they may just make that option and scrape the rest but if 2 or three of them are around 40% or it's just really close they may make those two packs and scrape the rest. It's hard to tell with EA.
I'm not really interested in Culinary Quest, Cheer or Heists, and I'm kind of on the fence about NPC Story Progression. On one hand, I like the customisation options that MCCC has. I don't know if the pack will let us do that, and I don't think they'd let us disable the main feature of the pack (because I'll probably want the CAS/BB stuff, ^^;). On the other hand, I've been watching Pleasant Sims' TS3 videos, and I like how the story progression lets unplayed Sims start dating or get engaged instead of just immediately getting married like with MCCC. I guess I'll just have to wait and see (if they decide to do it at all, that is.)
Wasn't Snowy Escape a survey option at one point? If so, one of these packs could be next!
