Next Expansion Speculation?

So it means we only get one EP in 2021 ? ... And yet they said kits wouldn't interfere with EP and GP releases :/ Maybe they believe free updates are enough for the players.

It could be that the development got pushed because of covid. So it would still be the case regardless of kits. Though I can see how it looks like kits affected the next ep release. But I think it's more likely that the pandemic is the cause.

Gotta read between the lines here. There will definitely be another EP by the end of the year by the way he answered that!

Works for me.

So....we only get kits? No new expansion? Why would they miss out on the holiday market. Kits are only £5 each

I don't necessarily think that Kits had an impact on other packs. They even said as much. But to release a buttload of them and then not have one one of the biggest releases of the year is a bad look lol.

Maybe 5 is closer than we thought...

Yeah I agree but if this was as a result of the pandemic I think it's best that employees aren't being rushed to release it for holiday sales. It is a bad look tho. I see a lot of people not buying the "kits don't affect other packs" speech on Twitter. I think it's just the pandemic catching up to the development schedule.

I'm ... actually fine with there not being an expansion this year. Let's me spend my Christmas/Birthday money on other stuff. :wink:

That said, I wouldn't be surprised if come mid November we get a "The Season of Selves is Far from over" with a tease of a game pack or something. In today's age of downloads, it may be better for EA to plan on post Giftmass Gift Card money than boxes under the tree.

Cula Bula but these 2 basegame updates better be epic. No more swatches. Except for ceilings swatches of course. Speaking of which...

"...free updates that add dimension to your sim's lives..."

Let's wishfully think about a couple of X-tra Base Game Dimensions they could still add to The Sims 4 in order to make the rest of this Season of Simselves be an instant Smash Hit:

1. The Dimension of The Curstomizable Ceilings: those glaring white abominations are no help to my photosensitivity. I've been wearing my sunglasses since the game released.
2. The Dimension of The Body Hair Menu: Because we need a bodyhair menu even if you think we don't.
3. The Dimension of The Liberated Babe: EA, do everybody else a favour. (I just want occult things and bands).
4. The Dimension of The Cars: Do you really think we can't have cars? Think again.
5. The Dimension of The Spiral Stairs: It would suit my industrial lofts and all that delightful stuff we got with Batuu.
6. The Dimension of The CAW: I will post an image of my cute little tear of happiness if we're ever to get a Sims 4 CAW Tool.
7. The Dimension of The Sims Personality: Can my evil sims be evil please? Right now they act like they live in Care Bear Land.
8. The Dimension of The More Romantic Interactions The Better: Forget about a Parisian Lurv EP. This should be a basegame update.
9. The Dimension of The Extra Dimensions: Stuff I didn't think about but should be included including townie story progression etc.
10. I've lost count.

Again, by the sound of that tweet we may only be getting two more BG updates this year. Anything from the above is fine by me. Even of we got liberated babes and nothing that actually sparks my interest. It'd be epic, and I'd want it for any of you who want it.
And hey, maybe those nectar bottles on that mandala image represent baby bottles in the shape of nectar bottles. Who knows? Who knows...

So....we only get kits? No new expansion? Why would they miss out on the holiday market. Kits are only £5 each I hope they surprise us but who knows thay still have two base game updates thay have yet to talk about... witch any luck we will have a get to work Refresh
