Growing together early access?

might be after the patch on the 14th

Unlikely, because why would we need early access videos once we get the patch and with the pack coming 2 days later? I expect it to be sometime after the livestream this Friday. Hopefully right after! :smile:

I think the embargo will lift after the live stream on Friday.

I concur, typically it is after the livestream. I wish they would let the people who created lots for the world release the build videos sooner.

@MichelleW I agree; would love to see the lots Deligracy & Lilsimsie did (3 each).

I hope it's soon. I don't usually like the livestreams. I prefer to watch Simmers give an overview.

We usually see Game Changer coverage of new packs come out after the gurus's Live Play stream. I imagine most of them have already been given early access to the game so they can create their own Let's Play videos before the EA one is shown and those will start popping up soon after the stream is over. I'm looking forward to seeing their reactions to playing the new pack, as well as seeing the pack in action.

The majority of the Creator Network (aka Game Changers) usually get early access on the same day as the EP pre-patch, 14th in this case. Embargo usually lifts 24 hrs later, giving only 2 days early access to make content, or 1 day if you want to get something out as soon as the embargo lifts.

If anyone has access earlier than that (such as guest builders) they are playing the beta version of the game, not the final version. There might be other simmers that got super-early access like this, but the only people who know who that is are the players themselves.

Normally after the Livestream the embargo lifts like with the High School Years LS last year. They let the Game Changers show us previews immedienly after the LS. To be clear there are two embargos the one lifts after the livestream it's the Super Access were they get the code to play but they can only play with just the base game and not packs. They can only show you certain footage the second embargo lifts close to the patch update were simmers can play the game with the packs installed and show you anything.

I hope soon the live stream was long and I look forward to seeing what the Game Changers have to show us. There was so much info my head is still going around and around.
