Do we know if there will be seasons in the base game?
In this day and age, i really think seasons should just be a built in thing.... We experience seasons every day, our Sims should too!!
Thoughts?
From what I've heard, I'm 98% sure that there won't be seasons in the base game because:
a) the weather system is demanding on your computer and that would mean less people can play the game
b) they want to make as much money as possible, regardless of how the players react
It is and always will be the one thing that annoys me the most about the whole franchise. I can deal with the bugs & glitches, but playing without proper seasons is awful.

You would think by now seasons would be a no brainer for a base game but as others have stated it's been confirmed that it will not be included.
Just typing this is annoying me because us season lovers had to wait for what seems to be forever for something we feel is basic in ts3 some i'm sure the same will be for ts4 but of course if everything was offered up front then EA wouldn't be able to cash in on it the way they want to.

I could cope with Seasons being an EP, but it would be really nice to have some weather other than bright sunshine in the base game (say rain and wind). This way hopefully weather would feel more integrated into the game than it has done with the sims3 EP.

RTS-type engines, which Sims series uses, are not actually made to really be compatible with complex weather. Despite the fact they tend to do it better than RPG engines, which are made to handle it (yes, this is confusing; it actually makes logical sense, but the explanation is rather long...).
As such, it's actually more resource-intensive for RTS engines to do weather, but, well... You've seen the results of that resource-intensiveness. So, no, it won't be base game, but when it comes back, you'll be glad for them taking the time to improve it yet again./
