The little girl in the video has already shown everything a GCer might show. She creates a mermaid in CAS and shows the map and befriending a dolphin. And the whole time an EA guy is standing there telling her how to do it and waving to the camera. What's the point of an embargo for GCers?

Exactly what I was wondering when I saw that.

I've never understood why there has to be an embargo in the first place TBH.

They are in place so its fair for the game changers so they can have time to make good quality videos instead of rushing to be the first.

Hmm. I would state my opinion on this, I typed it out, but I won't because I want to still be able to post here.

LOL. Don't get me wrong, I'm not the biggest fan of the game changer program, was just stating the reasoning behind it. feel free to send that to me in a PM though, I'm curious :p

Please don't think I was annoyed at you, I assure you I wasn't :) and thank you for the info. :)

I'm excited about the embargo ending Tuesday cause GCs will be able to tell and show us what they did.

Another simmer who is part of the same Facebook group as me has been testing it today at EA play. She said that sims can nearly live in canoes, they can fish, lounge, sleep, etc. She also confirmed that children can swim in the ocean and snorkel. The sunken ship wreckage is also similar to the plane bunker in strangerville.

Great to know about children and swimming. Was wondering about that.

Same here. I was a little worried so I asked her specifically to check out if they can or not and she did confirm that they can both swim and snorkel ???

This is the first time I've heard of the word embargo being used in a gaming context and it seems a bit strange, especially considering the word embargo is typically used in a trade context. To me, it would make a bit more sense to just use the word ban (even though embargo means the same thing). I think I'm being too picky though.
