Who's pre-ordering Growing Together ?

I have Strangerville so clearly, I'm preordering this pack. I can't be the only one who wants to put a kid in a backpack and eat bizarre fruit to see what a possessed sim with a kid on its back looks like.

Ha! I do!

If that works I’ll continue to experiment on the little one to see how it reacts to bizarre fruit …
I hope there’s plenty of playpens available.
Did anyone ever try this on a toddler? I can’t believe I never did! ?

Not sure yet.

The ability to carry a bebe around in one of those backpacks. We’ve got a long journey ahead of us bebe and the mighty gods in Selvadorada require a wee sacrifice. Don’t act all cute. Also, I hope sims can carry them while rock climbing…

Oh! rock climbing! didn't even think of that
snowboarding could be cool too

(also btw love that profile picture)

I'll wait.
I think it will be a great pack, but I feel this game has gotten too large to be managed properly.
I don't want to be sitting on a broken game after putting out money for it.

@Cherryrose_x CD Keys is not an unauthorized seller. You can find a list of 'trusted retailers' on the ea.com FAQ page. Sites like CD Keys gets codes from all over not always directly from EA. There's a good chance you could be left without the bonus items.
I've seen a few have luck but mostly unhappy players who didn't and EA didn't help them out. Sometimes you find a rep who will add it to your account anyways. A majority will explain how the promotion works and to read the small text.

I don't know about the baby carrier. I sure hope there's another one. That would be crazy to limit such a feature that is a part of the games advertising.

Yea I suspected as such. I am just going to give myself time to think and decide whether 3 items are worth the extra to buy from Origin. Plenty of time decide yet at least. :)

This is one of the few packs I have been drawn to buy so early on. Pets and Parenthood being the only others.

I'm going to buy it eventually, but not on day one. I plan to wait a week or two to see how others fare with it. HSY and its pre-release patch nearly wrecked my favorite save and I don't want to go through that again.

I'm not preordering, but I've bought both of the most recent EPs early enough to qualify for the free items. I just need a week to see the gameplay via gamechangers and see if there is anything majorly game breaking before purchasing. The longest delay of mine recently was MWS, because I saw the gamechanger videos and was like....NOPE.

Omg is your granddaughter okay? That's horrible ? @GalacticGal

Yes, the dog got her left leg, and her right arm. Four people ran to help her, thank God. They got her into a yard and away from the beast while they waited for the ambulance to arrive. She was at Children's Hospital overnight. This was back in late October 2022. Just a few weeks before her 13th birthday. She had surgery to clean and stitch up her wounds. She's doing pretty good, now. But anxious around dogs, even mine, whom she's known since they were tiny pups. I'm thinking she's suffering from a bit of P.T.S.D.

Also not preordering but I do belong in the not preordering anything gang
I am trying to decide if I really need to have the petty bonus items
but even if so we are looking April rather than March I think
just based on my simfund situation

in ideal world I would wait until this and other ep are 50% off
and buy it together with HSY since I missed that one too but :sweat_smile:
I might yet again fail to have the patience

Haha, it’s getting more extreme every minute.? How about strapping the kid onto the back of a mermaid?
Maxis will soon regret “freeing the babies”. Although apparently babies are a bit like fish and they have no trouble swimming under water. Phew.
It would also be great if sims can wade through water while carrying those baby backpacks.

Thank you! He’s a real divil that one…
