    Kits actually get their own page on the main menu separately from packs. They're definitely planning on a lot of kits.

    Wait how did you get the UI to show up?

    This is good as it will mean we won't have anymore dry months of no packs.

    I'm gonna play the cynical. These kits look big, but the rest of the kits are gonna be tiny.

    Actually, I should have picked 11-15.... since they are coming out in 3’s I think there will be 3 per quarter or 12 per year. But I hope there are more.

    They can release more things for pets now. I mean, they'll work exactly the same but they'll look different. It'll be like My First Pet. But they'll get away with it.

    Turning them into microtransactions huh? I hope that will not be the case.

    Maybe three kits every three months.

    Right now it looks like they'll be chopping Stuff Packs up into their 'CAS/Item/Gameplay' parts, but that doesn't mean you'll be able to pick the clothes you want.

    Maybe they will do game kits as well. Three pieces of content which when put together they form an expansion. For example: 1st kit-teen gameplay 2nd kit-growing pains 3rd kit-babies and children related stuff. All of these together form a generations expansion, but you can skip one if you dont like the theme. Wouldnt that be cool?

    I am going to guess one to two a month. They could do three a month since they are debuting with three, but considering the normal development seems fairly time consuming I feel a conservative estimate is best. Who knows, though. They may bulk up and start a Sims 3 store style effort.

    I really hope you are right.

    My guess is that they'll release like these first few - one with gameplay, one with BB and one with CAS at the same time. And I'm currently guessing three times a year, in the gaps between other pack release.

    I'm hoping for about one a month but no clue really. It makes sense to me though for excitement purposes to always have something around the corner to look forward too.

    I think Kits will be like stuff pack releases....but I don't think they will be as often or as many. I think they will bring one out in between GPs and EPs. Which would equal out to about three or four a year.

    They already said that kits will be more often than packs.

    So a cash cow every month?

    That may not be true, that the packs will get worse later, look how the stuff packs have changed for the better since the beginning.

    I suspect it'll average out to a kit a month. Maybe they'll release them all in one month so three kits each quarter year, or this being the first maybe they had to roll them out that way, and we'll get them monthly that way.
    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.

    In the livestream, they mentioned that kits won't necessarily come out in threes in the future. So they may be released just one at a time from now on.

    Less (1 or 2 kits) because
    • The studio is still "small", the time allocated for the Kit development is very limited.
    • 1 kit at a time
    • Kits fill these gaps (only if it's necessary) :
      • February/March/April/May
      • July/August/September/October

    Instead of 3-4 Stuff Packs like from 2015 to 2017, it should be 2 Stuff Packs and 1 or 2 Kits.

    If they are like the 3 first kits, I think 3 each 2 months (a wave each 2 months)
    CAS
    Gameplay
    Buy/Build (I hope next wave this type be all build)
