Does anyone know what time the new pack will be released? Are they still doing midnight EST as the release time? 'Cos that means 11pm tonight here in Chicago....or have they changed it?

No if that is in central time then it releases tomorrow at noon.

According to my Origin it releases tomorrow at 6pm, that's in the UK. I'm not sure about the times for elsewhere.

Yeah that would be noon my time. Wonder why they stopped releasing it at 11pm the day before? Bummer.

Where on Origin can I find the time of the release in my area?

It said 10am at least it does for me.

It's already in my Sims library ready to be downloaded.

Thank you! I'm good to go at 11AM! (Might take me that long just to clean out my email box) :open_mouth:

It's been available on Steam since Midnight this morning. HOWEVER

I'm definitely holding off on buying this based on the hijinx going on with the patch update. Thankfully disabled that so my game is untouched. For me, the patch issue isn't Sims aging up, but incest/inappropriate relationships sims now have.

And from past experience, it's also likely this disturbing bug will be a challenge to fix by EA. It's one thing if your family sims are attempting to have inappropriate/romatic relationships with other family members and/or strangers (like adults trying to date child sims etc.). At least you can address and fix that.

But with Neighborhood stories, this problem becomes pandemic with townie sims being randomly pushed into such relationships. And since these new interactions are necessary to support HSY EP, there's a good chance EA will do the minimal effort necessary to address this. Then move on to other things.....

Came out at noon my time, I downloaded it right away, no problems. Right now the big glitch is to play on normal aging...not hard to do. I made a small family with a teen and the CAS alone is worth the money!
