Well I truly hope it is a pre-final build and the final build includes an auto-save feature.

Well, if it's not a final build as they say I hope the final build will let you at least see inside buildings, especially your work. I haven't had a single issue with this version and I'm surprised how much I'm enjoying this game. I've never been much of a sims guy but this has me hooked. I've been tinkering items around the house to turn them into self cleaning devices, helps a lot!

I've had the same CTD problems while trying it out also.

You can see inside some buildings like the Gym and the library. Experimenting on items is fun too you can get some cool bonuses from doing that. But big risk, can make things catch on fire, get sucked into another dimension, playing crazy sounds, etc etc.

Been messing around to see how high I could get royalties up to. Using the moodlet item and working on masterpiece books over and over, i'm at $97,930 a week. I could pump out another by weeks end too. My best book was 17K a week. I have a lifetime wish reward for one over 20k can't seem to get it. But it gives 23k in points if I do.

edit2: gah $19,945 so close. Up to $117k a week, writing is OP.

It's not a final build just like there was 20 minutes of extra footage missing from Wolverine.

All that's missing is the second town, possibly part of the first town, and the 1000 points of EA Store credit you get when you register, because all that stuff has to be downloaded (and they want to get started on milking that cow as soon as possible).

Ya, don't fool yourself. This game is nothing but a milk machine for EA. Sims2 released an expansion pack every few months and I expect the same for this game in addition to forcing people to pay for shit online that should have been in the game in the first place.

or actual content.

Unfortunately, there are more than enough idiots out there willing to pay multiple $ for a single house in the Sims.

Everywhere I go, 90% of the PC Games shelves are Sims games/expansions.

Dumar · 05-25-2009, 02:08 PM

if you pay money for this game, if you give your money to EA for this game, then you shouldn't be visiting this board or any other game related site.

because you're not a gamer.

Prisonmsagro · 05-25-2009, 02:47 PM

I did it with 13 expansions for EverQuest. Doesn't mean people will get EVERY expansion that'll come out for this game, but a few that interest them wouldn't hurt much, for 20 bucks or less. I'm not by any means a hardcore Sims fan, but it's enjoyable to play off and on casually. Heaven forbid people buy games that they find enjoyable.

Araxen · 05-25-2009, 02:52 PM

With -222 Internets maybe you should be the one to go..preferably banned.

Dumar · 05-25-2009, 02:53 PM

well, if i find cocaine enjoyable, i'm still not gonna go out and buy it. because you're not only hurting yourself; you're supporting the drug dealer.

So you.. go out, farm herbs and craft your own cocaine? This explains so much.

This.

Dumar · 05-26-2009, 07:54 PM

lol yeah, because 222 dickwads who can't handle their opinions being hurt somehow makes the sims a reputable game.

the original idea, a fun and novel game by a mostly great game designer, died with its sequel. now it's nothing more than a cash cow that ea hopes to nickel and dime people with. it's no better than a crack dealer. to think otherwise is lying to yourself.
