Didn't someone explain here, (to me) why the Frostbite engine wouldn't work for a game like The Sims? I think they did. lol I was corrected if I remember correctly that the Frostbite engine would have to have too many reworks and fixes (my language because I don't speak geek) and is better for MMORPGs and fighting, adventure type games. If they are going to focus on that engine and it wouldn't work for The Sims series then how does this make any of us feel good about a future Sim game using Frostbite. Hey, I don't know but a smart person told me Frostbite wouldn't be right for this series, and need way too many changes..so yeah, MMO is on it's way then right? :/
Frostbyte 1 and 2 wouldn't have worked for our kind of Sims game - but Frostbyte 3 could be adapted for any kind of game. The problem would be on the players end - having the equipment to run something made on Frostbyte 3. Of course if they were going the direction of online and the cloud which I don't want for my Sims that would virtually eliminate needing a super computer. But yeah Frostbyte 3 could very much handle any kind of game with the right software.

Now they actually have a Frostbite 3.5 (I believe it is finished - but not sure) that definitely could handle a sims game.
