    I think there should be these:
    -university
    -farming

    I also think there should be a new stuff pack that includes body piercings, including belly, facial, etc. :-)

    I'd like Farming too.

    Maybe also some kind of business thing too. So that we could operate shops or venues.

    Farmers selling produce or maybe even a petting zoo (so maybe a few more animals?)

    I'd also quite like era-themed expansion/stuff packs (clothes, hair, items and build items) possibly with programming that allowed you to set the dress style of the townies and the cars that they drove. Maybe that way there could be futuristic vehicles in Lunar Lakes?

    I'd also like to be able to select an entire house and change its position on the plot (without having to knock it down and rebuild).

    Shopping venues that aren't rabbitholes like malls(with mall cops), gas stations, convenience stores, restaurants(fancy and fast foods), and car dealorships to name a few....

    Skateboarding, four wheelers, bikes(that can go off road) boats, planes, and a functioning hot air balloon and basketball or at least a basketball hoop.

    More schoolyard games and dares for children, also the ability to make them act bad;like kicking adults in the shins and throwing tantrums.

    ...And a zoo and circus would make the game feel complete :-)

    I think (by the looks of it theres soccer and snowboarding, might be more) Seasons will basicly cover a Freetime sort of thing. Probably uni, or another random thing EA makes up like Showtime.

      Carnivals/circus (could combine aspects from Showtime and the seasonal festivals from Seasons)
      Amusement parks
      Combination of FreeTime and Open for Business, with more items Sims can create and sell (I'd like to see a jewelry station similar to the inventing station, where Sims can use gems they've found to make jewelry that can be worn and gifted); either set up your own shop or sell through Buy Mode or if you have Ambitions the Consignment Shop.
      University, with an additional age state of College Age between Teen and Young Adult.
      Zoo/photo safari
      Sports pack (bringing back basketball, volleyball, adding things like tennis or handball or ping-pong)

    Probably more out there as well.

    I would love for them to add University. Part of me wonders if maybe they will add it, because we have tattoos, yet no piercings....and piercings would fit in really nicely with a college-oriented EP (Hey, it makes perfect sense to me!)
    Also, we're missing proper rock and punk music selections, which is incredibly irritating. Indie is all we have in terms of alternative music, which is one of the most popular forms of music along with Hiphop/R&B and Pop (which we have)

    It could also add new challenges for teens looking into going to school, and YA's could differentiate from adults (seriously, they get the same clothes, hair, make up, interactions, everything. The only real different? Adults have slight stress lines here and there) So it'll put the "young" in young adult by far.

    I would just adore a Uni EP :-)

    - Sports
    - Farming
    - University

    ^^ Those are the ones I'm hoping for. Or with University, at least maybe an option to follow the kids to private school when you send them. I don't like them just disappearing.

    I am just guessing here, but I think they are trying to get everything out before the end of the year,(SN & Seasons) so they can devote thier time to sims4, and they will do everything else for the sims3 through the store and updates... but I aren't too smart, so i could be VERY wrong! :mrgreen:

    nope, the reason that SN and S are so close together is that the "realtisc" people who don't want SN can buy S instead. (

    adding:

    - OFB

    - Farm life.
    This would go well with OFB. Add domesticated livestock like pigs, sheep, coats, cows and chickens at minimum). For wildlife, add rabbits and squirrels. And allow your sims to hunt (aka collect) them and sell them to the grocery store for $$$.

    Add more edible crops like wheat (to bake bread & pastries), strawberries, blueberries, apricots, corn, maybe even rice and aspargus.etc.

    Something left to add is actually being able to live in an RV and travel from place to place. Kind of stupid but w/e

    Also they can also add a way to move from town to town very easily.

    EX: You zoom out on a town (Say the late night town) then you have arrows on the side of the screen leading to other neighborhoods. After your sim drives on a bridge to the other neighborhood.

    ^ if nobody understands that because I don't know how to word it right X_x...It's connecting all the neighborhoods.

    University is basically all I want

    I want studying abroad, with University. I want scholarships out the yingyang. Scholarship Contests, such as essay writing, which can carry on into the University level. Ability to have special projects in turn of Quests, like having to research the cooking skill write, a paper, make slide show, present at school. Go interview a celebrity, write a paper on what you learned. etc.

    I can't wait for University :3

    Don't forget, releasing Seasons when they do is going to take them out of or close to out of the slump they have been in. 4th Quarter sales are going to skyrocket. Great marketing! :thumbup:

    Plus on a sentimental note: I like to think it is a "gift" to us fans for sticking it out! :)

    I agree with you about the sales.

    SamerTim, I too would like to see uni and a real vacation ep.

    But I'm not too interested in a freetime remake. All those hobby heads - :shock: all over the open world :shock: - would be worse than anything that's annoying now. :? I can't imagine those rude, uncouth sims, barging into my sim's house to shake his hand!?! :evil: Couldn't they wait until morning? or some INVITED time? oh they annoyed me to no end. I finally took off all the doors to my sims house when they were skilling, it drove me NUTS! :shock:

    sorry, didn't mean to go off on a tangent. :oops: sorry.
