Who's pre-ordering Growing Together ?

Nah, there is no real benefit to pre-ordering so why would I?

I feel like stereotype yes but ageist no. The majority of elderly people get help with technology from younger people, ignore technology entirely or talk about technology as if it’s alien to them.

Actually I wouldn't say the majority but definitely there are some. My mother in her 90's was always calling me for help and I was/am a senior.

I think what I find annoys me is not the tech stuff ingame with elders but the fact as soon as my sim is one they are unable to exercise or woohoo w/o a death risk. Seriously? Ha ha.. Surprise younger generation. Seniors can still woohoo and workout without risk. If I had the choice I would have a senior option and then at the end can be the elder.
However too many ages in Sims can just create problems so I'm fine with the way it is now. Except maybe a refresh and make elders walk straighter and woohoo without dying. ;-)

And yes stereotype is somewhat rampant in Sims. However maybe they could give us a dial phone so the elders could take away their grandchildrens cell phones and see if they can actually dial a number. J/K please dont make this an option EA.

Really no benefit besides the 3 bonus items but you have a month to make sure the pack not a complete buggy mess that will destroy your game.

I had a pretty rough day a few weeks ago and figured if I was already going to buy Growing Together the day it came out, I may as well preorder to cheer myself up lol

I've pre-ordered early because it's just after I paid my end of the month bills. That way I don't have to be concerned about messing up with my March budget. ;)

I don't preorder sims packs any more. Far to often the packs are completely broken for example My Wedding Nightmare or Bug the Dust. Dine Out is still bugged. I will buy this pack but I will wait tell I know it is functional. I actually an excited about this pack. I just been burned by EA's lack of quality control too often to ever preorder again. I will let others prepay to be the beta testers. I will wait tell the pack is playable.

@SERVERFRA I don't know how you paid when you pre-ordered, but I used a debit/credit card & they won't be taking the money out until the EP is released. Just wanted to mention it because I wouldn't want your budget messed up. I know how that is since I have a strict buget myself.

I check to see if all my bills are paid from my account, then I buy what I want. Also, I have an email that lets me know that my new pack is successfully paid. ;)

I use a windows pc and have not yet switched to the EA app thing. I don't see an option to pre-order on origin for windows. Seems I have to switch to the app. I have been waiting because I see nothing but problems with it happening for everyone.

Pre-ordered mine already
