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

I'm not voting because I think they shouldn't work on more expansion packs, but I wish they would still create things for the store. I would invest on more store items if they did.

I can´t vote, because my answer is not provided.

I don´t want the developers to touch this game anymore when it comes to EPs and SPs, because I don´t have any trust in them to be able to develop content for Sims 3 without breaking the game completely (hey, they can´t even develop their current game correct, so why should they be able to even understand the more complex one???).

But I would like to get new Store content!
There still are some modders around who would be able to fix whatever went wrong with the new content. And there would be a lot of problems, because I doubt that the developer team could make something without problems. Nearly every Premium content from the store had errors, so new content would have even more mistakes!

No, because it could break things, including mods that I use that would need to be updated and the creators of them might not be around anymore.

I hope for a Sims 5 that is similar to Sims 3 but better and 64 bits. :smile:

The only thing I want to see is a proper official giant fix for a great majority of the issues that still linger (I'm aware of NRAAS and some mods but still) and a 64 bit version

DELETED

There is so much more content that would've been awesome for the game, but of course, since the game is over, I've lived well with what I have. :D

Back when new store content was being made, I would have loved to see more premium content like a sewing machine. I would have even settled with a sewing machine as a decor piece, but it is what it is.I think that may have been number one on my list of premium items, but I wouldn't sneeze at more clothing for elders, children and men and longer hairstyles for women.

Wouldn't a farm EP be a bit Redundant after Pets through? We got horses in Pets, and you can already make a pretty good farm, even without store content. The only thing missing is a tractor that you can ride around the lot and use to harvest the crops. That would be pretty hard for EA to pull off, even if everyone demanded it. They couldn't even add door opening animations to cars in the Sims 3. I guess that farm workers would be something they could have added, but don't they already have gardener NPCs that you can hire in the game? I imagine that they function kind of similar to way farm workers would work, which again, would kind of make a farming EP a bit redundant.

There are animals, crops, farm machinery, ect not in the game. I live on a farm and have never considered a horse as a farm animal. If there was a old time plow, then sure, but yaks would be better. I see farm animals as animals you can get products from and make things, sell the materials, or in the case of the chicken, eat the eggs. With a new farm animal system, they won't be in the household count or stuck to buildings. Free roaming with fences. Electric fences, shoddy stick fences, ECT. Antiques. Farmer's market. I would like a real farm, not animals stuck in boxes. I bought the farmer's set when it came out and own the whole store. I'm wanting a real farm experience in the game.

We already have a tractor that sims ride and it tends and harvests crops, it's part of the Grandpa's Grove store set. It's pretty clear that a farming EP was in the plans at some point and got scrapped. Many of the store sets we got in late 2013-14 in the last runs of premium releases had to do with crops, farming, and food. Though they work together fine, they are a bit disjointed and a popular theory is that they were going to be part of an EP that never materialized.

Same can be said about a carnival type of EP with the merry go round, roller coaster, gondola likely having originally been planned to be connected somehow. A Tunnel of Love would have been nice, didn't we have one way back in TS1 or is my memory playing tricks on me after all these years?

@SuzyCue72 Origin does not even live on my PC and I actually intend to keep it that way!

In fact until you mentioned it's existence.

I see it like Windows 10: Trouble.

Probably not bad. My Origin account is messed up. It was for months earlier in the year and I finally had an Origin person help me take stuff out of the folders and it finally worked. I bought Strangerville on sale and the Island Living and after they downloaded, it stopped working again. Can't even get Sims4 to pull up offline, because it is connected to Origin. My Origin games don't show or nothing. I had to play Sims3 with the internet unplugged because the main menu still comes on where I canPush the play button. Went on today. Tried getting in and erasing the stuff in the Origin file, but logs couldn't be erased because it says it is running. Task manager doesn't show it; not playing in the tray; and I keep hitting exit and sign out, but it won't let me do either. Guy from Origin told me to keep the steps down like he knew it would happen again, but I didn't expect it to happen a week later when I was hardly playing and didn't load Origin.

I have to disagree just a little bit. My sims' farms produce crops in great quantities (the tractor we do have counts as farm equipment), honey, eggs, milk/soy milk. There is also a product that horses produce (edit: besides fertilizer I mean) that can have great value -- more horses. Or at least those with pedigree value can be sold by way of the NRaas Consigner mod, not sure if that can be done in quite such a rigorous way without it.

And yes, even as a city dweller I know that crop farms and horse stables are not the same things. But many of us tend to equate them with each other in our minds because they both have animals and require huge amounts of land to work with compared to the average suburban residential lots and those of densely populated urban areas. While acres of crops are out of the question where I live IRL, I wish I could raise horses. But the neighbors will tend to complain as I would need to bring them up and down stairs by way of the elevator in my building. :/

Neighbors...? Oh, you mean Jerry, Kramer and Newman? Don't worry, they're too busy with their own antics to even notice.

Neigh... bors... ? Interesting... :mrgreen:
