    Sims Mobile are getting a treasure map hunt. And George was tweeting about Mystery long time ago. And Frost's twitter name is still redacted and apparently isn't related to Star Wars pack. Maybe we'll get some kind of mystery pack like it's been rumored.

    Me too, but we won't get a farming pack. This year anyway.

    The tweet says treasure map and mystery. Jungle Adventure had none of that.

    @logion It was confirmed to not be cars, but a modder (I forgot who) made CC cars that actually work.

    It better not be a pirate-themed pack.

    Ever since OR and GTW we knew what amount of depth could be expected from Sims 4: the kind that makes for a fun game, but isn't worth a day one purchase at full price. So I have a hard time understanding where the maybe this one will will give "us" what "we" want mentality comes from.

    Personally I'm hoping for a theme that I'm interested in, but at the same time am wary of bugs as well as of more sneakily introduced story progression elements like the visit your mom/should we have a baby/please cheer me up phonecalls and "neighbor bring present" visits from sims living half a world away. That's not the direction I want my game to go.

    I haven't really enjoyed a pack since Island Living. I know that pack was lacking too but I just really like Sulani and it's residents.

    I think I could of enjoyed Eco Lifestyle if it had been designed better and functioned properly, I really like the concept of it.

    After the disappointment of the Star Wars pack I'm actually scared for what could come next. I didn't ever think things would get as bad as adding a whole pack dedicated to Star Wars in the game but here we are and I shall not taint my game with this type of rubbish content.

    It’s probably going to be mediocre at best. I’m not getting my hopes up. I haven’t been excited for an expansion pack since Island Living. Although a lot of people wanted Discover University, I didn’t care for it, and I’m only just now starting to warm up to Eco Lifestyle (but still not enough to buy it). What do you think?


    Island Living is my all-time fav pack. DU I didn't care about either though. I think 10 will be good. I'm guessing it's a winter vacation pack with hotels.

    Since I don't know what the next pack is going to be, I have no expectations of it right now.

    I hear you. At this moment my expectations are so low, I have none. I'm beginning to feel the way I did when Paramount started making Star Trek series, left, right and sideways, some even overlapping others that were still on the air! I hated Star Trek: The Next Generation and yet I was a very devoted fan of the Original series. I even made sure our dinner was finished and the kitchen clean, in time for my entire family to sit in front of the television for the premier of TNG. What a huge disappointment that was to me. I watched as many of the episodes as I could withstand, before I completely walked away. In my heart I felt as if the ship took off and left me standing, alone, on the dock. I'm starting to feel that way again. I now have a string of packs I haven't purchased. My First Pet; Vampires; Eco Living; Realm of Magic and now the Star Wars one.

    At least I now have a rocking chair. Missed out on that in Sims3 due to the fact they packed that item in with Supernatural. I was very grateful aliens were in with weather. But even so, they kept the pointy ears strictly to the aliens, unlike in Sims2. In Sims3 I used a mod until the devs made it possible for us to use pointy ears on "human" Sims. I have a mod, this time, too. But, alas and alack, I'm beginning to think I won't be spending any more money on the Sims4, if this keeps up.

    I always just keep myself open minded whenever there's a new pack. I don't mind to have a high expectation because I always expect the best coming out from the developers. If it's something great & fit to my gameplay, I'll buy it immediately. Else, I'll wait until the next sale.

    Medieval would be great, surely we'd get horses then right? Right? No?
    Well, surely at least we'd get some castle building pieces....what that? no again?
    Some archery related activ---again no?
    Thrones, what about - oh no again.
    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.

    That's the way to go. Expect the least and you might, just might get a pleasant surprise. I'm always a pessimist and only now finding out what I can do with University a couple of packs later. Eco Lifestyle I need a manual for but I'm determined to defeat the odds and win without going a bit mad because thieves are everywhere. Sulani has gone off the grid in a big way too, cutting off my electricity whenever I need it, Batuu is providing a pleasant interlude of just ticking the boxes!

    What I need as the next Expansion is a gentle one, fixing the bugs and easy to use and plan in. I don't even care if it frees the babies!

    Thank whoever! I have at last repealed 'Sharing is Caring', and now it might be safe to go out to the bars and clubs and actually get a seat without it being stolen! I'm ready for my next EP Mr/Mrs/Miss/Ms etc. Maxis! :Do:)

    I guess I'm one of those very very very very rare Sims players who somehow, in some way, manages to find something enjoyable about each pack that comes out. Whether it's gameplay related, or CAS related, or build/buy related... there's always something that I'll like about it.

    Whatever EP10 ends up to be, I'm sure I'll find some things about it that I will enjoy as an addition to my game.

    I honestly just want to know what the pack is, that’s all I care about if I wasn’t dealing with personal issues I’d be having fun playing sims 2 right now.
  • Simtown15Simtown15 Posts: 3,952 Member
    @DevSims91 Same here. I just want to get it over with. I want to be disappointed sooner rather than later.

    Yep, I spend so much time lounging around island living enjoying the beach and ocean life! University was cool but it's a grind to get a sim through it. With honors even more so, but the payoff is definitely comfortable.

    Considering I bought an expansion pack because it contained overall shorts and a hairstyle I liked, I'm not hard to please so I know I'll like 10 .

    Honestly i just hope its something most people want though I'm neutral either way. The community outrage gets mentally exhausting

  • alyssasim87alyssasim87 Posts: 1,277 Member
    normally id think hmm maybe it will be a good pack. but since this year has been a let down i dont have a lot of hope that its going to be a really good pack. even if the theme turns out to be good chances are if its as buggy as eco lifestyle it might not work as good as it looks. but hopefully ill be impressed.

    Im a simmer forever <3

    It's a weird reverse psychology motivated thing where they actually really want to know what's coming and for it to be good but have every intention of being outraged. It's becoming it's own culture in the Sims community.

    My expectations are non-existent at this point. I'm just waiting to see what it actually is, and if we'll get any decent patches between now and the end of 2020.
