4/1/11 – New pic from The Sims 3 Generations

BeyondSims BeyondSims Author

This isn’t an April Fools gag, it was posted on the official Sims 3 Facebook page with the title “What’s going on in this Picture?”  It of course belongs to Generations as it includes the spiral staircase, stroller…and a new bed design.  Also, it appears to be some sort of gameshow setup…

    “Let’s Make a Deal” – or so I’m told…

    I am in NO way hoping or expecting the game show to be real. Positive it’s just a set up, as usual. Which is fine!

    A bunk bed is not about to assuage the revulsion I feel towards you, EAxis.

    You mean if it came from a new trailer that featured weather and farming equipment? Hmm… Well, yes, that would be an improvement.

    The trailer was leaked two weeks or so ago. We discussed it then.

    Finally spiral staircase(s), probably the only reason why I will get Generations

    I hope that new hat with the veil has better hair than the store one.

    It looks like they’re trying to show off 3 of the things that are most wanted by players – there’s always people saying “We want spiral staircases/strollers/bunkbeds!!!”…

    Buttering us up maybe?

    Can someone please tell me what’s this TS3 Generations thing about?

    Firstly, it was posted on April Fools day, so take everything in it with a large inch of salt…

    I suspect the whole game show set up is faked, and is just there to show off the 3 new objects:

    1) Spiral stairs
    2) Pushchairs for babies/toddlers
    3) Bunk beds

    These are all great items in and of themselves, and have been long requested!

    Lets just hope that their big surprise on the 5th April includes BOTH weather and Pets or this will just be forgotten about!

    It’s funny how the first 5 people who commented never mentioned about the spiral stairs

    It was said that weather was going to be implemented in Late Night. We already have days with clear skies and really foggy and cloudy days in game. I’m sure they’ll work something out, like they did in The Sims 2…

    Guys face it, the chances we get weather is slim. Do you remember how much the lots used to lag with weather? Well think about the whole town… I honestly dont have my hopes up.

    in the Sims 2 the only time weather caused lag was if your computer wasn’t at par with the sysreq. Like when snow covered the ground or during a heavy rain. When weather returns in The Sims 3 someday, the sysreq will most likely double. being an open world, the game will have to apply the different textures throughout the entire town at the same time. That’s if they do weather like they did in Seasons, IMO.

    Oops, I have absolutely no concept of time! Was it really that long ago? Thanks for the reminder—these days everything seems to blend together for me.

    Or maybe is the Creature in this Addon maybe a Werewolf , but they are then in this Pets Addon maybe.
