    @catloverplayer SGDrake also said recently she would put up an excited gif right before the announcement in May :p

    Let me torture you a little more >:)

    I didnt see her mention May even so an announcement could still come in April if the pack is in Early May.

    I'm starting to feel like that too. :(

    @SimGuruDrake Can we expect any kind of pack this month?

    There will not be a pack this month.

    That was said in March, not in April. Nothing's been said about April.

    He knows. The point was he thinks (and honestly so do I) that there will be no pack this month, or announcement.

    But its not confirmed is it?

    I'm hoping for a restaurant game pack since that's what the next game pack is rumored to be.

    I wish we didn't have to do this every week. I wish they could let us know at the beginning of the month if we are getting anything at all that month. And if they can't say anything, maybe post a gif with a wink for yes and a blink for no.

    I dunno, but I have been playing a lot of Roller Coaster Tycoon 3. I spent my game money for the month on it. So unless the new pack is something supper cool, like toddlers, I am going to wait until next month anyway.

    I keep saying it... I honestly believe there won't be any announcements until EA Play, because EA wants to make it a big thing, and what's better than to have their big money-cow franchise hold off on the milk until then? I am pretty sure that the GP train got derailed and they are going to stick with EPs and SPs from now on. Which is a shame since Spa Day was my favorite of all the SP/GP/EP packs.

    I hope I'm wrong. I do. But I have very little hope or faith with my favorite game franchise.

    SGDrake also said recently she would put up an excited gif right before the announcement. I take that to mean sometimes this month.

    I don't think it necessarily means it'll be this moth. I think it just means instead of posting a no gif every week she'll just post an excited gif when there's something to be excited about.

    Nicki Minaj Sweet Treats confirmed. B)

    Her eyeball is shaking side to side, so possibly it would be a no GIF. :p

    I think EP 3 is at EA Play.

    Next EP is not happening for next 2-3 months but I want them to announce it... I hope they will announce next EP ASAP (I mean this month)

    If they dont announce it this month we wont have an EP till August. Thats just ridiculous to me

    7 months isn't that ridiculous. That was typical in the first 3 years of Sims 3.

    WA - Ambitions was 7 months.
    Late Night - Generations was 9 months.
    Generations - Pets was 5 months.
    Pets - Showtime was 6 months.
    Showtime - Pets was 6 months.

    Then it was more regular towards the end.

    I think the GP is either going to be announced this week or the following week with the patch coming a week later then the GP.

    We could see GP 3 the last week of April. I think the patch will add something new from GP 3 to the base game and at the same time doing away with the Easter Egg Hunt and Fruit Challenge. I'm also predicting a lot of bug fixes in this patch.

    No way. Patch will come before pack release not after

    Guy, it's hard to create any kind of pack. You should realize that. Don't blame producers for not giving us any new pack last couple weeks or not adding certain thing into the game. It's their job not free time project. They would love to add everything we want into the game but they simply can't. First of all their budget is not unlimited. Second of all there's still EA policy. That's why they are not allowed to talk about it, to announce anything and any time they want.

    This is all I wanted to tell you. You should play the game not complain that producers are bad because there was no new pack last month. If you don't like it then stop playing the game and enjoy your real life. I'm going to play TS4 and wait. Then I will go for a run... Hopefully one day there will be unlimited budget and we will get every single feature in TS4 we want. :D

    You are too confident and very patience at the same time... I don't know, while I agree with you, we can't just sit here and only wait. Unfortunately we become anxious and impatient because of their poor communication with us. I prefer a No gif every 1st of the current month, instead of all this silence. It's become really frustrating

    That s not what I said. I said the GP will be out the week following the patch.

    No way are we going to have to wait till June for any kind of announcement. SG Ninja and another guru have already confirmed their working on a gamepack. See this is what happens with poor marketing.

    Is it though?
    I mean think about it if we know in 4 months in advance about a gamepack it gives us time to actually think over our decision to purchase said pack and by the time of release we may of already lost interest or decided against the purchase. If they announce a pack next week and give a two week wait till the release or even less it gives us less time to think about a purchase and will keep a certain level of interest for the pack. Plus since we have waited so long for new content it would allow us to become more excited for new content no matter what that content maybe. Marketing is in no way shape or form suppose to help the customer trust me.
