Rumors about the upcoming EP for Sims 3

Hi everyone. I was searching thru the websites to find something interesting about the new EP for Sims 3... This is what I've found. It's from polish site www.wirtualesimy.pl - they got the news from SimNieuws (It's a translation from polish to english - so if any mistakes, write to me):

"It turns out, that in couple of days we will hear about the upcoming EP
(the 4th EP for Sims).

People from SimsNieuws tell us, that in the upcoming week (1st February probably),
Electronics Arts will show their financial statements from selling their
games for the past 6 months. In ocasions like this, EA will probably present
their new upcoming pack for Sims 3 series. So it's pretty clear that in the upcoming
tuesday we will hear official informations about 4th expasion.

Is it weather or pets? Or maybe something new and suprising? One is sure, the official
announcement of a EP for Sims 3 is closer than you think...:)"

So what do you think? Will they show us the next EP?

    Sounds promising, this is some of the most logical speculation I have read on the forums in a long time. Thanks for the info.

    Thanks for letting us know, i hope they do let us know soon! I reckon it will be soms time in february if not after Outdoor living is released (: I doubt it will be weather as Outdoorliving was based around the outdoors, hopefully its pets. Or i'd like another FreeTime or University! :D

    I think that it could be anything, people are always so bitter about pets and seasons when in truth it's brought a lot to the sims and that's why so many people are asking for it.
    Some people won't buy it, but the majority will.

    As for something new and suprising, I'm at an actual loss for what it could be... My imagination is running dry, in fact I'm off to make some fake EP artwork... :wink: Yes, I'm one of the people that does that.

    But wasn't Ambitions kind of like Open for Business? Both kind of job-related :)

    Anyway i really hope it's something to do with weather! It would be so amazing to walk around town with heavy snow or something :lol:

    Are there not any clues in LN pointing towards it? I don't own LN yet so I can't check but Ambitions had the bat under the trampoline and you could see a city scape in the distance if you angled the camera a certain way in Twinbrook world view.

    I'd say looking for signs like these would be the biggest indicator of what the next EP will be. :D

    So far from looking at pics the only thing I have came up with is from a screen shot of the outdoor living SP. The gnome thing has T shirt with a duck on it... Bit of a stretch I know but so far is the only thing I can see that looks out of place. :lol:

    i think in the Late Night town there were some mountains with snow on top - kind of like how there was a city in the distance for Ambitions :D

    According to GS and also a few other sites the only game EA is coming out Sim wise is Mid Evil, they have Out Door Living that will drop on the 11th of Feb SP, there is nothing for a new EP in the next 9months and they would know they get updates every day.

    I have an idea for an EP fix the bugs EP.

    I love what I see with Outdoor Living and would like to have that but doing another EP after LN and ALL the problems it caused and still has think EA should fix that before asking us to spend another 50.00 on something that doesn't work. Just my 2 cents there, as far s I know until EA announces there is no EP GS says they are updated every day not in computer only Midevil, to me it is far to soon for another.

    Look at the timeline of EP and SP release dates since the base game was released... See a pattern?
    They would be completely going against the grain if they didn't release anything for it in the next 9 months... Not to mention hammering the final nails into the coffin for the Sims 3. :lol:

    GS and others do NOT know because they will only get updated when EA is ready to update them. They have been burnt before by companies giving away release dates/name dropping and such before they are ready so it is not surprising, that GS and other places are in the dark as much as us. :P

    I hope it's pets or seasons...or something like freetime but I guess we already have quite a lot of stuff from that already

    I really hope that it is Seasons, I think it will bring a lot to the game and I do hope for a pet EP, but I do hope it will be different then SIms 2. I don't want the same things for either one EP. I know they have to have the basics, but I am looking for different things as well.

    I'm still not sure :lol: .. On one hand you have the snow capped mountains, the season coloured leaves on some trees, the rain and snow already in game using that silver ball thingy and the mist and fog.

    On the other hand you have the pet and werewolf posters on the side of the stadium you get with the Dr pepper promo, pigeons in LA, gnome duck t shirts and the biggest indicator (if this is true?), apparently in the science building of LN, there is a skeleton of a dog! :shock: Could someone confirm that for me at all? I don't have LA to check. :cry:

    Soo confused. :lol:

    I'm hoping for a Sims Beachlife or a Sims Theme Park. I don't think I'd be interested in Sims Pets.
    It would be good if we could have part of a sims town on an island and the rest on mainland. The sims could have a boat to take to the island and back to the mainland.

    Oh, could someone please check the thing about the dog skeleton?? I wonder too if it's true...
