New World Discussion Del Sol Valley

The nighttime shot of the LA inspired Del Sol Valley panorama was rather Cohen Brothers-esque. And so an opening narration ran through my head.

I only mention it 'cause some- times there's a man... I won't say a hero, 'cause what's a hero? But sometimes there's a man... and I'm talkin' about the Dude here... sometimes there's a man, well, he's the man for his time and place, he fits right in there. And that's the Dude, in Los Angeles. And even if he's a lazy man... and the Dude was certainly that. Quite possibly the laziest in Los Angeles County...which would place him high in the runnin' for laziest worldwide--but sometimes there's a man...sometimes there's a man.

I may like this new world after all.

I think it looks beautiful! All of our worlds except for San Myshuno are pretty suburban or have a small town feel to them, so I'm really excited to have another city for my sims to live in. Personally, I don't mind if we don't have a beach and unless it's something like the Santa Monica Pier, I really don't think we'll get one.

I'm mainly wondering about the lots. Hopefully, there'll be some sloped lots, because I would really like my sims to live in a split level house in the Pinnacles. Imagine making something like an infinity pool there

How big is this world? That last screenshot, the one at night, makes the world look huge. And in all the shots, it looks very dense, like there's so many buildings in it. I hope it doesn't cause too much lag on lower end computers.

That's backdrop, I'm sure. The world will be broken up into neighbourhoods to prevent lag. I suspect that, like usual, lag is going to be largely a result of lot size and contents on the currently played lot.

I wonder how many lots there are in this neighborhood. Pretty difficult to tell which buildings are real and which are fake.

I keep thinking it looks like Hollywood Ca,

I just want to know the number of lots and all their sizes honestly. Another thing why Windenburg is my favorite world; the generous amount of lots! If it's done right, Del Sol Valley could be a contender for one of my faves. I've already planned some sims to move there anyway, to make some room.

Sloped lots are one factor that might convince me. I might even try recreating one of my favorite houses I built for TS3.

i'm thinking there will be around 12 lots, but that's just a guess on my part.

i'm also concerned with lag. i regret getting cats and dogs. i got that EP only for the town and more lots, but i've had terrible lag ever since. so i certainly don't need something else to make the lag even worse.

I wish it was a city world, but it looks nice.
