They already announced the swatches. I dont think they will be showing off swatches at EA play :) @invisiblgirl

All they've said is 'exciting things to show you', not that they're announcing anything. We haven't seen the new swatches. I know that sounds a bit picky, but they do choose their words carefully (or end up deleting the tweet) because of SEC regulations.

I'm truly hopeful that we'll get some sort of new pack announcement, and I do think it's possible, but we don't know that's going to happen. I've already seen people stating that they'll be disappointed if they only announce the next expansion.

At this point, I'd buy just about anything - GF had no appeal to me, and Strangerville was fun, but didn't add much to game play. (I don't see much game play value in a tropical pack, either, if that's next, but I'll take the new content.) My Sims need new things to do!

You can bank on them announcing the Next Expansion next Saturday.

I highly doubt they are making all of this fuss over some swatches they already announced. Considering they made it very obvious there are more surprises to be revealed. Let's not sidetrack the thread! If you dont want to countdown dont :) @invisiblgirl

I want university to include brand new career's that require college degrees. And I want the grades from high school to impact a sims acceptance to college. Those are my only requirements, in order for me to love university. The other stuff is sweet frosting on the top of the cake @NoWayJose527

Excellent ideas! I think it might also be good to have certain tuition fees ... some students might have to get a scholarship to attend and students from wealthy families could enroll at "prestige" universities. There are so many possibilities with a "College/University" expansion. Of course, I also want a variety of majors our sims could choose from, maybe even different degree programs, meaning a different number of semesters for one degree or more semesters for an advanced degree. Most of all, having a degree should make a difference in the sim's life, otherwise, what's the purpose in it?

I really want a big gameplay base game update for part of the announcement, since we're switching to 64 bit. If I hope for anything, that would be it. And if it were significant enough, it would be worth bringing in Game Changers.

Hey - heads up that I'm moving this to the speculation/rumor section ;)

This is also a countdown until my birthday. I hope EA has a nice present for me, lol

At this point, I just want new gameplay and content - I don't even CARE what it is! Though I am in the University camp lol.

Catloverplayer ? do you think we could get the EP in June or have to wait till August like the Sims 3 we used to have to wait months after an announcement I don't think I could wait that long

June. They've also got a stuff and gamepack they have to get out by September.
