do you think when thay tak abot the sism5 being online thay could be talking about streaming data like Flight simulator 2020 dose so you save space on your hard disk beause your game data is in EA's Serevers? Would that be exceptable?
No, he metioned cloud server, that will mean server worlds, online all the time in my opinion. How else would you save to cloud if not online all the time. So it could sync with the server worlds. EA has made some claims lately about their S.E.E.D. project which we should also assume will have elements of it in TS5, changing worlds with current events of real world conditions etc. every time you load a game. That's their dream (just one of the many features of S.E.E.D.) that points to server worlds. He thinks players play The Sims because of the competition....Maxis PR has had a hand in that I would think by promoting all these influncers to rival each other to get the swag and big bucks. Everything about TS4 has been nudged in the direction of 'competition'. Just look around for the evidence. Who could play the most hours...in an open-ended game? really? Who can get the most likes for builds on the gallery (Maxis Promoted to get them more), who is the most popular on the forums (sticky notes at top of forums) who can complete a TS4 quest the best and fastest. Whose Sims can woohoo the most. Who can ge the most skulls. Who can make the best whatever and get a free pack. Who can get more followers on Youtube and get a free $600 T-shirt. Who can influnce and sign up more players..tumblr. Whose Sim can poop the most (inside game) or whose Sim can do anything (check list inside game). Who has racked up the most hours (promoting competiton to be king of the hill). Whose Sim got the most downloads on gallery, again Maxis promoted so they get more downloads. Regardless if it's a unique Sim or just a premade uploaded. Maxis started this stuff in TS3 with those silly badges and other things. (player achievements). TS4 is TS3's baby on steroids as far as Maxis pushing a game like The Sims into some sort of competition between players. And EA is under the impression that's a good thing (the dough is rolling in) and sanctions it for TS5. No one was counting hours played in TS1. Why is this even a thing about TS4...because Maxis and EA think this should be and is a competition. And where do competitions head in a future..mulitplayer competitions.
