    I'll say one thing for getting a little older, in the blink of an eye the days pass into weeks and the thing we are looking forward to gets here more quickly than when younger, or seems to. And I am really looking forward to some new content. New swatches are great, and if they make the woods match then that will be terrific, but we need something new to do in the game. I want to know if my Sims are off to uni, starting a farm, moving to a tropical paradise and perhaps becoming pirates, or if they're going to open up to a little witchy magic.

    Or, you know, anything.

    Regarding Resorts or Hotels. Island Paradise in TS3 had Resorts even though it was just a home world so I suspect regardless if this is a home world or a destination world it will have hotels aka resorts.

    I honestly preferred the full-fledged hotel system from TS1 and TS2. The resorts in IP were more on the management side. I just want my sims to relax and explore the place :D

    I hope they put both in

    I agree because with all the problems people seem to have with employees in Dine out, I rather they did not waste development time on hotel management. I want to be able to check in, get room service and have my sims really get pampered.

    Yeah like just have NPCs service our sims. I have a feeling that if they just stick to having our sims stay at resorts, it'll be really well-done.

    If they want to follow the same 'schedule' when it comes to announcement and release; announcing it at EA play doesn't make sense.
    EP's roughly release a month after the initial announcement, so, that means, if they want to release that EP in June, they have to announce it this week.

    If they hold off and announce it at EA play, they either have a smaller window and still release it in June, or it will be a July pack.

    IF it is a July pack, that means we will get a pack roughly every month July-August-September.
    They said they are going to release an EP, GP, SP, and the 6 month release window ends at the end of September.

    So I don't know, we will have to wait and see I guess..

    I personally don't want to wait till July so I hope it's a June date. If they announce this week it will be Thursday with the teaser coming Wednesday.

    TS4 base game is free to claim until this Tuesday, so it does make sense to tease/announce it on Wednesday/Thursday.

    I am convinced that the free base game offer is because they have something good in the works. I know it's most likely actually because after the June patch and the legacy edition 32 bit players will have no further updates so it's a good chance to grab a few of them before it's too late, but I can hope :smiley:

    Plus, as people have said elsewhere on this part of the forum, it's for Speculation, so I may as well. :smiley:

    It sort of doesn't make sense to me, to release the base for free (maybe because of the long weekend this past weekend) and not have some major EP pack ready to go, too. Such as a Season pack or a Pet pack. That would have made a lot of sense to offer a free base hoping to gain new players with a theme everyone usually wants such as pets and seasons. The other packs are niche packs, not everyone ever wants university or magic or palm tree island, or Strangerville....I think they missed the mark. They better have something as big an idea as a seasons pack or pet pack or it will just look silly to do it this way.

    No Monday teaser, no Tuesday trailer !

    No announcement this week.

    It's Memorial Day here in the states, most offices are closed. I'm not saying they absolutely couldn't do it today, but it's something to keep in mind. of course, they might not do it this week, and you're right. Only one way to find out.
    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.

    It's a safe bet that the only announcement/trailer will be at EA play. Or like a day before.

    There is no confirmation we won't get it this week. I still have my fingers crossed.

    EA Play is so close, and @SimGuruLyndsay seemed to be pointing toward it, so I don't expect any announcement before that at this point. I feel like she was letting us know to wait for that. But I also expect a pack at the end of June as a last pack for people still on 32-bit systems. Otherwise, that's a bad PR call. (Though I suppose if I was on a 10-year-old computer I'd kind of understand.)

    It won't be compatible with 32 bit computers. They've already said Strangerville is the last pack that'll work with them.

    No announcement this week.

    There could still be a teaser this Wednesday and a trailer on Thursday this week.
    4 weeks after that is June 28, which is the supposed release date of Tropical Paradise.

    I don't... think anyone in the US was thinking we were going to get a teaser today, knowing that it's Memorial Day.

    Why to announce this week and say nothing at EA Play ?

    It would be normal if they keep this announcement for EA Play, the people can wait 9 more days because we have already been waiting for 3 months.

    It would be normal if they didn’t announce the pack at EA Play. Both Fitness Stuff and Seasons were announced shortly before EA Play so that people can play these games at EA.





    Remember that EA Play is an actual event that people attend. Why would Sims fans attend it if nothing has been announced as playable at EA?

    For people who’re watching the EA Play live streams at home, they could still show off a gameplay trailer, do an official walkthrough, talk about the new base game update, etc.
