It appears that over at the official Sims 3 forum that various people were asked if they want to pre-order ‘The Sims 3 After Dark’ when they were going to check the status on The Sims 3 Ambitions. I believe this happened at GAME and another UK based retailer. I’m not fond of rumors, this one especially considering the clerk stated it was to come out on June 4th. So yeah, don’t get excited over this because it could be anything – even a mistake (which I’m tending to believe). Suppose we’ll know what the future is for The Sims 3 when E3 occurs in the middle of June (unless Ambitions has a leaflet about the next game in the series).
I think this is the next rumoured ep that accidently got on the game stores pc and it had the wrong date. This sounds to me like a nightlife ep and more likely it would be hitting stores November 1st. I hope the 3rd ep is a nightlife one.
That would be awesome if it was a Nightlife sort of expansion pac. 😀
hope its nightlife nd hotdate but to me it seeems like scary spooky magic type!
damn damn damn, if this is true as the next EP, im very very disappointed…i wanted pets.
i am the person who started the thread on the sims 3 forum about this. I got asked yesterday if i wanted to order it and knew nothing about it so asked the community only to find they knew even less. I rung Game in the uk head office its not on the web site or sims 3 but when she checked internal listings for up coming games it was listed as the 1st of november release and couldn’t tell me any more so put me through to the shop i pre ordered it from they list it as an ep and said 4 june release but admit head office list of release dates is more up to date.
Oh my God, I truly hope it’s a Nightlife remake and then some! That means we’ll get a proper city/urban EP! Yay! We’d get nightclubs, bowling alleys, open restaurants (and fancier ones at that), and maybe even a subway train system or to expand on the Amb’s abandoned railway as a new transportation other than taxi. So much to add! And EA could even add weather, even if just rain and thunder/lightning effects until we get more weather later on. I know, I’m getting ahead of myself. But NL was one of my favorites since I’m a city guy. I’m hopeful! Maybe we can have a few pets thrown in. 🙂
I don’t really care what the next EP is as long as it includes weather. I really hope they won’t make us wait until the 5th expansion before they release weather like they did with TS2.
EA’s been using a very urban neighborhood in a lot of their recent videos, most notably in the Sex and the City video from yesterday. If it is a new Nightlife type EP, maybe that’s the type of neighborhood we’ll get. I really hope it looks like that video, lots of people up and down the sidewalks, traffic jam, construction on the roads, tall buildings connected instead of with grass in between them. There’s even a bum in the video sitting on the sidewalk with a duffle bag. Maybe we’re already getting a glimpse of the next EP.
Ok I’m sorry if I’m being annoying but EA, I WANT SEASONS AND PETS!!! Please start listening to most of your fans, and sales, and make the EPs everyone really wants! Thank you! 😀
Frankie, what you said all sounds amazing, but throwing in some weather and pets would simply ruin the excitment of new EPs! I wish they’d make a weather/nature EP and a Pets one! But having a city added into TS3 does sound interesting! I’m a city guy too! 😀
Why can’t we have a seasons ep? I want to be able to create and track thunderstorms as the cross sections of my neighbourhood. You should be able to plot its path, choose its size, intensity and what kind of weather it will contain (Hail, Torrential Rain with ligtening bolts and thunder and tornadoes). You should also be able to create other weather systems like heatwaves, cold fronts which drop the temperature suddenly and may contain hail & rain and snow on the peaks of mountains etc, snowstorms, duststorms etc.Please listen EA!
I loved all of the expansion packs for Sims 2, so I wish we could just get all of them for Sims 3, another one I loved was actually the Makin’ Magic and the Superstar expansion packs from Sims 1. At least there was some magic in the Sims 2 Apartment Life, but no duels. I loved making row houses in Apartment Life too where you could have different families in each row house. Hmmmmm now I’m tempted to go back and reinstall Sims 2 for all the expansions….
Justin – that would be awesome being able to control the storms, I was also thinking they could add a storm chasing career!
I can see this being a nightlife sort of thing with a mixture of a fairy tales and magic stuff, they can also add pets to it we never know remember the apartment life expansion pack where they randomly added magic and witches.
For me…NightLife Remake
Every Sims rumor has a shred of truth behind it.
After dark – late night… may have been a rumour but it was virtually correct in all the right places.
now we have that garden stuff rumor… if true big hint towards the next EP
