ReplusiveDesire, here's the quote from the interview:
GS: Tell us about some of the other additions that the expansion will add. What new items, building options, and gameplay features will also be added?
GR: One of the features we're most proud of is adding the ability for players to add, remove, and modify lots in edit town. Create-a-World is still the most powerful tool available for players who want to create and modify worlds, but for players who just want some of the options, this is a great alternative. Players can also add neighborhood objects like signs, rocks, and other large structures.
I LOVE the idea of earthquakes! I can't wait to see my sims' whole neighborhood get shaken up, haha I wonder what the moodlet will be for such a natural disaster. :twisted:
Oh and I think there are more careers because in the gamestop interview it said
We have dozens of different jobs based on story progression and your neighbors' desires--it's a very exciting feature.
oh how i hope they expand the martial arts to the different countries. perhaps have international championship games with a crowd watching. now they just ignore one of the most amazing interactions in sim history. the moves are awesome!!! please take this further. it is my all time favorite interaction and unbelievable well done. i am awed by it, but have taken 4 sims to the top now. i even have my maid learning the art. lol. please add more to this, please!!!
The mod community has already given us tattoos and alternative careers (Thank you modders :!: ), but I'm eager to actually watch and manipulate my Sims while they're working! I'm definitely going to get this expansion.
I was just thinking the other day an earthquake would be cool! I just hope they don't do alot of damage, I've worked hard to build up my neighborhoods, and fix up the houses, I don't want them destroyed.
Inventorship would be awesome, the genius trait is kind of a waste on sims when all they can do is play chess and read the same stupid books over and over again. I'd love to see mine put her brilliant mind to work.
I am extremely excited! I cannot believe they're adding earthquakes. Just think.. maybe Weather is next, or in the works. I would love to see weather in Sims 3; Sims 3 scenery is so gorgeous.. I bet weather would be too.
Though, I am so excited to see something new this time. World Adventure's is new.. in a way. But it's kind of like Bon Voyage in a way too. I love that they finally figured out how to make our Sim jobs even more interactive.
I'm definitely excited to see if they open up some rabbit holes.
I cannot wait to hear more about Fashion Stylist, and the Detective career's. I love a good mystery. The video was great, and the music fit perfectly. Tattoos?! That's AMAZING! Which is starting to give me some ideas of possible tattoos, and a possible idea for a Sim I can create.
I like the fact that we'll be able to add/remove/modify lots in game. I tried the CAW tool a couple of times but I'm just not patient enough to build a whole world from scratch
The best feature in this expansion pack is that we finally are able to put and modify lots on the neighborhood!
I hope they make it the same way like Sims 2 where we had premade lots like 20X20 30X30 etc....
I look forward for more things for my sims to do. This game really needs it. I probably won't use the stylist much because I've already made over many of the towns residents with a mod and its simply faster with no limitations.
I think I might enjoy playing inventors and investigators the most. It's good to see Servo back. There were a lot of great ideas for better Servos on the TS2 site. I hope EA listened.
I also hope this EP is not heavily dependent on story progression because I prefer to play with story progression off. :? I suspect that it will be.
i hope the game will be as good as it looks. EA alwayz advertise the game like its going to be a good EP but when u buy it, its not what u xpect. b4 WA came out, it was advertised like it was going 2 be a good game but when i bought it, it was not what i xpected. Hopefully this EP will be fun bucuz im tired of waistin my money.. I love the sims.. ive been playin the sims every since it came out.. i just want more xcitment n the game. i hope they thought outside the box when they made it..
I'll have to wait to actually play it to see how that stuff works out in game. Sometimes stuff sounds so different on paper or how it looks in their trailers then how it is actually played out in game.
Earquakes do sound amazing. I hope houses can actually burn down to the ground though, since theres fire fighters it would only make sense that house can burn down to the ground...not the fire only buring up items in one room...
Wow! I just cannot wait! I think first I'm going to try the detective or ghosthunter career first but everything looks amazing. Trampolines!!!! Yay!!!! I'm also looking forward to the tattoos. I'm not a tattoo person in real life but I think it'd be cool to give my sims symbolic tattoos. And Fire!!! Wow... although the fire was good in the base game, it just didn't do much. It just looks soooo good!!!!
Hey simmers!
We've gotten official word today announcing Ambitions and I can truly say i'm excited for this pack. It looks AMAZING with the little information we've gotten so far.
But what is your favourite features? I was just consolidating the features into a list and just saw how much cool stuff there is: earthquakes, fires and more!
Personally, my three favourite features are: earthquakes(!), ghost hunting and inventorship. What about you?
Hey, I’m still waiting for someone to link me to the official info that said Earthquakes are included in this EP. ConnorJack, your links go no where but a big error page.
"Your town may fall victim to small fires, huge infernos, and even earthquakes."
Personally I think people are making too much of this, and that they're not gonna happen unless you're playing a firefighter, but who knows Details are thin on the ground.
My favorite feature, btw, would have to be redesigning the town a room at a time as an architect, but the inventor skill is a close second. And being able to add new lots and objects is a close third

I'd probably put Inventor top myself, I'm interested in how the scrap acquisition will work (they mentioned demolitions and it seems to be in the trailer but I'm not sure how it'll work) as well as seeing what they have invention wise (particularly with regards to the "Servo").
I might put Sculpting quite high up the list too, we don't have much details on it but if you can actually make good statues of your sims in different poses that would be good fun (although in a previous discussion it was pointed out that there doesn't seem to be a reference to being able to make stone statues so it'll be interesting to see exactly what the options are).
To be honest, most of it sounds like it could be pretty good in a variety of different ways .

Possibly a story to tell with that.

I'm pretty excited about architecture career, time machines and tattoos.
agreed..
