Seems like they’re showing a launch trailer for Cottage Living at EA Play Live tomorrow.

Isn't that sort of weird, to show a launch trailer for a pack that has been hyped up for the past 6 weeks? I would think that most simmers would already know about the pack. Maybe they're trying to attract non-simmers who might be watching EA Play Live.

It could also be vice versa. For a company like EA, having simmers tune in for the whole show until The Sims Segment could expose many simmers (potential buyers) to their other franchises like Need for Speed, Battlefield, FIFA, or any other franchise EA had. This is a business opportunity to them and also bringing in The Sims will of course can bring new players from other EA franchise. Who knows that a teenage player who plays Apex Legends might saw Cows in The Sims and will be wanting to buy it?

Whatever new thing that's online that they're working on might be, but I don't think it's intended as a "Sims 5" that follows Sims 4. I think it's more a Sims Online 2. They've said they have years of ideas for Sims 4; I don't expect a Sims 5 announcement for a very, very long time.

I think it's time for EA to let go of Sims 4. There's really no reason why EA cannot put those ideas into Sims 5,unless they really want to keep spending a lot of time and money fixing countless bugs and glitches that keep piling on the longer Sims 4 goes on. The longer the game goes on,the worse the game engine becomes...pretty soon,it will break and EA will be unable to repair it.

ISims 1 didnot go on forever and ever...Sims 2 didn't go on forever and ever...Sims 3 didn't go on forever and ever. Why should we have to stay locked in "The Endless Sims 4 Era"? Please,EA-just end Sims 4 soon and give us Sims 5 already...it's time to move on and embrace the future instead of keeping a buggy,laggy,glitchy game going on for "many many many many many more years". /m hoping that Sims 5 will be announced later this year,and that we get it sometime next year.

That's what people said about Sims3 and wanting Sims4 and look what we got. Sims3 was awesome if you didn't use CC and had a good computer that can play the game. I don't play it like I use to, but time is that main issue and saving/getting in and out of the game times. Sims 4 certainly has many bright spots and add-ons. They did say many more years and I think they won't rush Sims 5 like they did with Sims 4 and having to take it off line and having so many issues because they rushed to get it out.

Hmm..you may be right. I MIGHT return to Sims 4 IF EA can prove to me they can do more with Sims 4,like adding new venues to new worlds(instead of plunking bars and other base game venues), giving us multi-purpose lots, giving us Create-a-World and other things people have been asking for.

They only showed a short Launch Trailer for Cottage Living and it was not even during EA Play Live with the host (Xavier Woods) but before it.

The sims was reduced to a pre-show segment.

I was all excited for EA play and for what ?

I guess three more years.. that'll make it a decade of Sims 4. Oh well. I'll keep playing Sims 3.

Lame and disappointing

EA is staying consistent, at least.

If they (EA) have stated that they have plans to release more content for Sims 4, then announcing Sims 5 would be one sure way to get people to slam their wallets shut. Why would you pay for something that's going to be superceded in XX months?

Now we talk about them lasting ten years, 15 years, or more.

Well dang, if they would last that long (of course EA will milk every ounce of Sims 4) then I will keep playing Sims 3 and Paralives until TS5 come out. I stopped getting packs for Sims 4 in 2019 and haven't touched the game since then... the only way I can consider is if they introduce the open world back to the game but their engine can't handle it so.
