I've recently started a thread in the TS4 voting section...
forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/915557/ive-read-the-ads-about-the-vote-for-new-sp-for-ts4/p1?new=1
https://thesims.com/news/sims-4-community-stuff-pack-kickoff <- The devs calling for a vote (also the link in that yellow banner...)
I sincerely believe a large number of us, simmers, do want the dev to keep working on TS3, and I do believe *IF* they call for a vote, then we should be allowed to vote according to what we want, resulting in, I believe, TS3 getting more support than what they expect...

Other than that I would also vote for a 64 bit version for TS3
I am voting for you to be in charge
Well, you don't have to be sorry... The reason for a vote is people expressing themselves, and that includes expressing our disagreements

I do agree that the more they touch the game the worse things get in the game. Like the Adventure land world that showed up. I don't get why they didn't clean that out of the base game before releasing it.
When you look around, you find out that not everyone cursed with patch 1.69.xxx (or subsequent micro-patches) have access to it, as if it would be region locked or something similar. It lead to various talks as what else in the game might be region based/region locked. Still, it's obviously an abandoned WIP remake that wasn't intended to be released, and should have somehow cleaned it afterward in a micropatch or something...

True. I have one computer that isn't cursed with 1.69xx patch. But that computer needs some tlc. It only shows up once you put in expansion packs and stuff packs.
I don't believe a single second that anyone will be working on TS3 again. (Except maybe a remake in 2030 when the game will start being called retro... Maybe... One day...)

All they did was mess it during patches when it was in development, I don't want to have to go through all that again. TS3 is a full, rich game as it is already, despite being bandaided to death, and with the CC available for it, some of which is much higher quality than EA's, then it still feels like it has new content.

What about the "Final Fantasy" series?

That April fools joke about the ts3 patch seriously had me groaning until I figured out it was a joke.
It has become quite popular and lucrative for game developers to go back and remake/remaster popular and well-liked games. Such as Resident Evil/Resident Evil 2, Final Fantasy VII (Hopeful for a remake of VIII but I doubt it), Perfect Dark, Tomb Raider: Anniversary, Twisted Metal, The Last of Us, Kingdom Hearts, The Legend of Zelda: The Twilight Princess, Metal Gear Solid Collection, Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection, etc.

However, I am not sure what this topic is about since what the SimGuru's posted has nothing to do with TS3 only TS4.

Sid Meier's Colonization, Bio Shock I, Bio Shock II, System Shock, Doom, DN (whole franchise), Final Fantasy (half of the titles), and those are jsut the one I can come up with in a matter of seconds.
Well I'm sure that *if* as a result of a poll intended for TS4 they get a significant numbers of simmers who want some more TS3 stuff, they might reconsider their position...

Yes, so many more games that are remakes and/or remasters. How could I forget this one which I am very excited about.

I also don't want them to touch the sims 3 or the sims 2. I dread to think what would become of it!
I've already got my Crash pre-ordered for my PS4 and patiently waiting non-patiently. I can't wait!
They DELETED that thread. It was just a joke! Oh well.
I agree with everyone that has said please don't touch our Sims 3. The 1.69 fiasco was proof of what could happen. I remember around the time I first started playing in 2014 there was a petition thread asking for new Sims 3 content. In my blissful ignorance I signed up. Now I understand the naysayers. The game just can't handle anymore. I have a stellar gaming puter and I manage to run almost everything but one more EP would probably snap it in two.
And I really don´t want them to touch Sims 3 anymore. Because I started late, when I bought the game, it was patched to 1.67, and I was spared all the wonderful experiences of most bugs. So I innocently downloaded the 1.69 patch and my game crashed to desktop for the first time, after I transfered it from my laptop to my pc. It didn´t happen more than once, but it made me deeply wary of patches in general.
The game runs fine with mods, but I sometimes seriously think, I can hear my computer groaning with all the content it has to handle, and there are still things at the store I´d like to have...
For me, it´s fine like it is. Please do not touch.

Just assume that every edit I make is because of typos.
Totally agree with you!
Several games have been updated with better graphics since their launch.
I recall back in 1989 a company called "Sierra" made games like "Police Quest" which featured CGA graphics. It was a very popular game (you played as a police officer and had to follow REAL police procedures - not that junk from movies). In 1993 (I believe), Sierra went back and did a remake of PQ1 which had VGA graphics. This was AFTER the release of PQ2.
Other games that got remakes was "Space Quest 1" (also by Sierra) got graphics update from CGA to EGA (also from "text adventure" to "point and click adventure"), but I can't remember what year it was.
I know of other titles, but these are ones I've played. Y'all can help back me up on this and add some other titles of remade games, so EA can see that Sims3 IS a good game. It just needs a "facelift".
