A little HSY consideration, and a little question about the game
High School Years, the new expansion of the series when we bring back (for the elder like me) in High School... a typical american school i guess, but ok, after close both the eyes over the bug, let's talk about the game, the expansion is cool, you can partecipate on lesson and learn/upgrade your skill, you can socialize, you can "partecipate" at after school activities (well techincally you can't, are "rabbit hole" activities), and every Saturday there's a prom? (honestly i don't know how its called, but i indeed the school dance night) and there are events for football players and cheerleader, but i still understand how it work, because is not happened nothing during this event, i can socialize but stop. And now talk about the bad thing of this pack, one of them is the continusly repeat of the same task, ever, for my sims are train on the machine traing, run on the tapis roulant, be friendly with a student, be friendly with a member of the faculty (i play in italian, so i don't know if in english is the same), study for the exam, and partecipate at the lessons, stop, everyday the same tasks, after 2-3 weeks of in game playing, become a little boring you know, but this is not the worst part of this pack, the worst pack is, in the entire world, theres only one high school, yes you can't create your own high school, i suppose thanks for the enormus football field behind the school, but not all the school have a football field, expecially out of the U.S.A, so can't create an onw high school is a bad things for me, specially when i start to rebuilt the entire willow creek lot as an "dangerous" neighborhood, with the high school placed in the lot of the park, for you know, create a drama story, of high school gangs, but no, only the rich kid high school for us, so disappointing, and here's my consideration of the High School Pack, a pack with potential, but without the little something, to become a very good pack.
And now, i want to make, and talk about a question, with everyone want to talk about, the "not" open world map, i mean, ok like devs says, with this engine have a open world is impossible and bla bla bla, but, i'm not an expert, and if anyone here has programming skill, i appreciate if can explain, if there no possibility to travel without loading screen from lot to lot, why all the lot in our neighborhood have the entire forniture loaded, even the reflex of the objects in the mirror, ok, if you zoom to much on a lot without visiting you see an empity lot, but if with your sim you can stay one step behind the "other lot" you can see all the furniture of the house, like i said even the objects reflected in mirrors, and for the one who don't belive me, i made a test, in oasis springs, bedrock strait i built a park in the nookstone lot, and an house in the pebble burrow lot, i used the wall size windows for the house and i place a plant in front of the window, and 3 mirrors around the plant, and i do the same things outside, a plant and 3 mirrors, around it, i took my sim, and i go to visit the park, go in the direction of the house and i can clearly see the reflex of the plants through the mirrors, isn't that a waste of... i don't know, programming resource or whatever you want to call? I'm the only think is bettere don't have the furniture loaded in the world until we knock the door of an house, but can move free, without any sort of loading from lot to lot?
