Jord 3,481 Posted August 20, 2013 They're going to release the Sims 4 trailer tomorrow. How come this thread is so inactive? I've been freaking out and reading every little news that surfaced. Game pictures leaked some days ago too! Come and anticipate the new generation of this special game with me, you guys. It was about time a new game was announced. I can't be bothered with The Sims 3 anymore, I'll full of it already (and I don't play it 5% of what I played Sims 2). There's going to be the Gamescom conference tomorrow and we can watch it here. It will start 12:30 CET in the afternoon. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Foolish 541 Posted August 20, 2013 Lol it looks exactly like The Sims 3 just with easier gameplay. I wish they created sth more realistic - like GTA games where you play with a man in first-person camera view (move him with keyboard arrows... u know). But I dont think that many computers could handle that. They could also connect a few villages together, when u could travel to another one and not be limited just by one city. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jord 3,481 Posted August 21, 2013 I don't think it sucks at all from what we can see! I think they are doing exactly what should be done to give what the long-time fans need and they're trying not to make the same mistakes they did with Sims 3. The new game is being developed on "entirely new technology," which means it will probably not have dozens of bugs like the previous one. I guess that a lot of people are kind of shocked because it doesn't feature super-duper-extremely amazing graphics but is this really what people want? At least my opinion is that the gameplay should always be put over terrific graphics (and even if the graphics were much better/innovative, most players would have to buy new computers to play it and would complain about minimum requirements). Sims 3 has better graphics than Sims 2, on the other hand its gameplay sucks. The Sims are just dumb, take hours to do simple actions, not to mention the amount of time they spend just standing still before they really start doing what you told them to. I just can't play it without getting annoyed, hence why I used to spend hours a day playing Sims 2 but I can spend months without even looking at Sims 3. Even though I wasn't overwhelmed by Sims 4 graphics, it's still better than Sims 3 if you look carefully. The objects, specifically, are much more detailed/sharp and the shadows are precise. I'm so excited. And you fellow fans need to be here more often to talk too. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guy 976 Posted August 21, 2013 omg guys did you see the little hidden messages in the arrival vid?

Lovecraft 5 Posted August 21, 2013 I always loved The Sims, that game is my childhood. From my point of view The Sims 3 were not so good. The Sims 2 were perfect, the playability was awesome, and you could make your sims look the way you wanted through Custom Content. It doesn't matter what I download on The Sims 3, the sims will always look like if they were made from freaking plasticine. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philomene 928 Posted August 21, 2013 I never tried to play Sims 3 because the sims look so ugly and what I like the most in Sims 2 is genetics. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

QueenofAlchemy 186 Posted August 29, 2013 GUYS omg I love you. Honestly, (I've played all 3 plus console versions) I like sims 3 better than 2, because there is more stuff- literally more potential, and there is so much CC- its just too amazing (you can literally find anything). Also, many creators have recreated the 3 starter hoods from Sims 2- some have combined all 3- which I prefer, as the other sims carry on with their lives around you if you only play one family (this feature can be switched off though, if you prefer TS2 style). Plus ancestors of the TS2 sims have popped up in various EPs and store worlds, kind of like little easter eggs for us. Also, apparently sims 4 is created so it can be played on lower end PCs and Laptops (I'm guessing that's why the graphics are more cartoony) Finally, I have the Lana motherlode for you: by TS3 Decor Studio (I know some of you like Marina) both by Simstaplease by Valuka By PralineSims Which do you all prefer (I didnt make any of them) ? 2 Quote High up in the Hollywood hills, Taking violet pills Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jord 3,481 Posted August 30, 2013 @ The Marina Sim is the one that looks the most similar to me! And yesterday a lot of easter eggs have been posted on the Arrival Trailer! It seems that Bella Goth, the Tragic Clown, aspirations, the grilled cheese obsession and something related to outer space are being featured! Till yesterday, only 7 out of 24 easter eggs were made available. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jazzmin 302 Posted October 13, 2013 Nice Lizzy, @@Philomene I used to play TS2, then TS3 but once I decided to end it because it stopped being so much fun for me. Well, The Sims 4 will be nothing special IMO, maybe better than The Sims 3 but I don't think I could enjoy it like The Sims or The Sims 2... And when it comes to TS2, I downloaded its soundtrack, this music is really one of favorites, lol. 1 Quote And the wind I know it’s cold Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Creyk 11,699 Posted October 13, 2013 Daamn, what's with you people in this thread? I had no idea the TS3 hate was so intense, I loved those games! I loved how you can find those rocks and bugs/butterflies and the ghost interactions were flawless, great expansions packs as well. And the characters just looked so good, the hair coloring was awesome and the whole game flowed so well. I personally loved it, and I hope 4 will be great too, although I don't see myself spending that much time with a game now, but we'll see 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seriously, I can't put it into words how special and great these songs sound to me because they remind me of tons of great moments I've had by playing this game, and I still listen to them so often. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
