Do any of you still wish that EA was still making new content for this game?

Lets hope we get more stuff for TS3 when it is remade for TS5 :wink:

I picked this answer, because I also play Sims 4, and if EA did to Sims 3 what they are doing to Sims 4, it would have probably ruined the game. (Because, seriously? I always wait several weeks before I download any Sims 4 updates, just to make sure I also get the fixes. Because of the bugs. Many bugs. Reoccurring bugs. The rodent cage bug caused my whole computer to shut down. Sims 3 has never done that.)

I wouldn´t mind some fixes and new content, I just don´t have any trust whatsoever in the competence of this company to do it in a way that actually works.

My response wasn't one of the choices -

No Sims 3 is stable at 1.67 using mods that fix most of the problems. I don't need EA breaking what is currently working or adding any more glitches, problems.

I would like to see a re-write of Sims 3, as say Sims 5, with a better foundation on which to add EPs. But from what others are saying about Sims 4 I'm not sure if EA can deliver.

While I do hate the Sims 4, I think Maxis would just ruin 3 if they decided to tinker with it or add any more content.

Sims 3 creators (cc, worlds, mods, etc.) have done a great job...I'll stick with them.
I don't want to pay for more ugly furniture, patterns, etc that come with the xpacks. I pretty much only play custom worlds, anyway.

I can't stand EA made worlds, the house in them are so boring.

I'm happy with everything we have. I can't think of any extra content that I would want. Although it would have been nice of them back in 2014 to improve the stability of the game. But as of now I hope they continue to leave us alone :smile:

Sims 3 is okay the way it is. I just have Nraas mods that makes the game go faster and keeps a certain world from becoming empty.

This is my vote as well.

I read someone saying something about how everyone tries to make Sims 3 sound perfect so why mess with perfection and I had to laugh. We all know Sims 3 isn't perfect - but would love to see a Sims 3 remaster. Have no interest in Sims 4 and given the number of issues and bugs I've read about, doesn't seem like there's been an improvement in programming skills over at EA. Perhaps it's time for a new sims game made by someone else.

I think this answer comes closest to my personal opinion.

Of course, there’s always room for improvement. And I admit there are a few more things I would’ve liked to have seen as far as TS3 content. Also, during development I had hoped for better optimization, improved stability, and actual bug fixes.

However, I don’t wish for these things now.

I run an all disk install on patch 1.67, with all EPs, SPs, Store content, plus CC and mods. Despite its limitations and flaws, the game runs well for me and I enjoy it. I will not willingly tie my game to Origin, so even if fixes were offered at this late date... hard pass. Quite frankly, I have no confidence in EA’s ability to improve anything.
