I miss being able to talk about the up coming packs

some people just want news about the game they don't like watching other people play it and I think they should be able to get news with out all that

so what do you think guys will we get some dlc news today

Why today? Is there something special about today?

Teaser trailers generally come on Mondays and Wednesdays with the full blown trailer releasing the next day.

But they don't do teasers anymore so why expect something that they said will not happen. It's a waste of my time to "wish" for things that they don't do anymore.

They still do teasers for pack trailers. I'm not talking about quarterly teasers.

I wouldn't expect any teaser for any pack until November when we normally get a pack for Black Friday.

I dont think it will be that long. I expect Late August or September.

So they would have nothing to offer on the biggest sales day of the year? That's crazy.

They probably will release a pack in fall and one for Black Friday. I can't see them going 6 months with only one paid DLC.

Black Friday is in the fall. Are you suggesting that they will release two packs at one time? That's even more crazy than not releasing anything on the biggest sales day of the year. "Let's cut our chance of a huge BF score by releasing another pack just days before BF. Who knows, maybe people will spend a lot of hard earned money on both." I just don't see that happening.

You're right black Friday is in fall. But regardless I wasn't saying they would release two things at once. I meant that one comes in early fall and something later on.

You appear to be forgetting that the devs said there will be quarters with no DLC. It would be marketing madness to do that in Q4 as that is the holiday shopping season, so Q3 is the likely one. We got free stuff in an update, so be content with what we have.

Why should paying customers just be "content" if we think the company is doing a poor job? Without us, EA would not be able to develop another game. Some people don't like the "free stuff" that came with the update.

It's a new week so I have to wonder if were getting any kind of Sims 4 announcement this week and that includes console as well.

Nah, they will probably wait until Sept. on the Maxis monthly interview show.

Well I hope it isn't that long in September when that takes place. On the console front I'm hoping the big update coming will get a release date this week and I'm also hoping a new pack for the consoles will be announced with it.

Update
We just got an official announcement on Twitter from TheSims that Get Together is releasing on Consoles Sep 11th. Atleast that's something.

I miss it too. I am a planner when it comes to the Sims. I like to think out the next generation and knowing what is coming plays a big part of that. The next generation has been started and some are children and I want to know if I should slow things down because we are getting university, stay the same because the next pack is of no interest or speed things up because a new honeymoon destination maybe added. This has been the worse, the not knowing.

In sims 2 we got the flyer so it was easier to plan. In sims 3, we were talking and planning all day every day between expansions, new worlds, premium store content, stuff packs, etc.

I don't use twitter or twitch so I am completely left in the dark about things. Which is not fair even if we are a small group who don't use both platforms so now I have to rely on simmers here who do have that stuff and will make posts up here but sometimes I end up missing them because of other posts.

I keep thinking if anything was close to coming out the devs would have gone to Gamescom to show it off - so my guess is mid October at the earliest before we learn anything. Maybe an sp to hold us over but even that doesn't feel promising since reactions to the last sp.

If the SP is Pool Stuff it will be pretty satisfying.

What would you like in a Pool Pack?

I'd like a swim-up bar. A second story curved slide that can attach to a house/building. Water games like Marco Polo and holding your breath. A water air mattress to sun bath on while floating. A hammock for two. One of those big swans to ride. Water basketball. An inner tube. Noodles for kids.

It would also be great if we could challenge other sims (I'm thinking mostly kids) to a race and dive in and race back and forth. The winner could be determined by athletic skill.

Game Pack coming soon?

I hope so. Or maybe it's an expansion pack?

Since SimGuruNinja works on Game Packs, I assume it'd be that.
