Now, you know I have no inside info or have anything to do with EA. :D
It's based on what has been said in post and tweets by gurus concerning this engine, when they discussed as Reg mentioned they would not be able to do things that break saves, which if IIRC was about allowing us to decorate common spaces or that was an answer I got a few years ago when I mentioned they patched the game to move a trash can in an open space but then I asked something else and they said they couldn't or wouldn't do things that might break saves.
This is TS4, we also never thought they would leave out toddlers at the release or not allow us to build apartments in any world did we? But they did, so it's based on specuation, some knowledge of what came before, what has been and might be, and how players feel about this touchy subject and EP.
Just gaging how others feel as I voted first and I would not buy individual packs with one type of weather only in particular places and not other places such as existing worlds or all new worlds. I would feel that is explotation of the desire to have sunny beaches, snowy mountains and rainy, wet forests.
But if we take them at their word Daniel did say they wouldn't do that....but I never expected I couldn't ever build an apartment in OS, or WC.
And I do remember they said months ago maybe a few years now, if Sims were ever going to swim in the ocean like in WB they would have to build a whole new terrain for that world. Now, do you think they would? I sort of doubt the cost would be worth it. And that possibly could break people's saves to patch in or add something that would change a FX terrain into a workable one, so that is why I asked if people would buy a pack that couldn't have weather in the existing worlds.
Yes, what Reg said in fact was what I was wondering when I aksed that question ;), if there were signs given it would be that way. I didn't know that. The Feb 21 tweet Neia's posted just now is hopeful though.
(no, I doubt if they'd build a whole new terrain for WB if that's what it would take to make the ocean swimmable there; I don't understand why they didn't have to do that in every single Sims 3 world prior to the Seasons patch though, that's just odd)
