Likin' It :)
This EP is pretty cool. Got
it today and played it all afternoon and late into the evening. It
offers quite a bit of interesting stuff. There are a couple of new
career paths (i.e. Mixologist, Celebrity Actor, and Movie Director).
LOTS of new objects, hair styles, young adult clothes. Hot tubs are back
in this one. Indoor swimming pools. The ability for Sims to skinny dip.
CAS has some new stuff too, including tattoos, and the ability to give
more muscle definition as well as make women's chests bigger...not quite
Dolly Pardon size but pretty big nonetheless..lol. There is also sexy
nightwear for the ladies, sexy shoes, and sexy casual and formal outfits
for nights out in the city. The new world included in the EP is a city
full of skyscrapers with condos, apartments, and penthouse style suites
to buy. There are also houses on the outskirts of town and plenty of
space to place lots. The venues are combined in the high rises with
plenty of places for Sims to find dancing and dining out. Vampires are
in this EP also. Celebrity Sims are everywhere, too, but to get noticed
by them beyond an autograph takes some effort. Your own Sims can gain
celebrity status as well by pursuing the actor career. Celebrity status
gives them stars over their name and makes other Sims oooh and ahhh over
them wherever they go. There are also new additional traits to give
Sims in CAS, new skills for them to learn and master, and new lifetime
goals for them to achieve.
No crashes whatsoever this
time...woohoo! Game play has been smooth, fluid, with many corrections
of EA's past mistakes. Very pleased regarding that.
Overall I
think this EP was worth it. More so than Ambitions. This one has a lot
of neat stuff in it, new interactions, living environments,
lifestyles....and it even includes the ability to hire an Executive
Butler to wait on your Sim hand and foot :) I love the butler! The
nightclubs are fun with lots of special effects type objects to add
interest, as well as Sims dancing on top of the bar..I thought that was a
cute feature. Some nightclubs are difficult to get into unless your Sim
either 'knows someone' or has celebrity status or has certain traits.
The bouncer that guards the door won't let just anybody in. Some don't
have bouncers at the door, but might have a dress code, be it formal,
casual, or beachwear. Sims will also get invites to parties hosted by
other, computer controlled Sims. Invites can either be accepted or
rejected but accepting them and attending has benefits. There are also
more musical instruments to learn and master, and Sims can jam
together...piano, bass, cello.
I'm really liking this one and
glad I got it.
First Impressions
I waited with baited breath
for this expansion to come out for the past 2 months and it's finally
here. Anyone who regularly plays the Sims will want this expansions pack
as it gives your Sims something different to do. My first impressions
from playing the game last night is that overall this is a good
expansion pack and things I like and don't like:
What I like:
1.
Bridgeport is a beautiful small city with a lot to see and experience.
2.
Nice new music.
3. A new selection of hair, beards, and outfits
to choose from and some new architectural elements.
4. Hot tubs
are back and there are new pool options.
What I don't like:
1.
Unlike the Sim and Sim 2 you can't send your suburban Sims out for a
night in the city. They
either need to move to Bridgeport (which is
essentially starting your household from scratch)or
start a new game.
Why this is so I have no idea as I don't think it would be different
than
sending them on vacation--but it does ruin the seamless
continuity of the Sim's world they live
in.
2. Not into the
vampire thing. I think that they should create a Halloween Town
expansion for those
who want more monsters to play with, which could
also have witches, werewolves and other creepy
settings. Those not
into such things could then opt out.
3. Apparently one can add
some social venues to exiting towns via the edit town screen, but I
rarely do this.
It would, however, be necessary to take up jobs like
mixology, etc. I'd have perferred the option of just
sending my Sims
to Bridgeport instead. If I want my Sims to do these things I'll just
start new games in
Bridgeport instead, I don't like to edit the towns
too much.
A must have for Sim enthusiasts.
Wow! They finally made The Sims 3 fun!
I just got this expansion
today and so far, I'm loving it. I have played The Sims since 2000 and
have been a fan since I discovered it way back then. I have been a
little let down with this installment of the sims series though. The
Sims 3 base game and all EP's and SP's to date have been lackluster and
it felt like something big was missing. Well, it seems to be back. I
love the new downtown area. It is absolutely beautiful. I like trying to
make my sim a star and I hated all the role playing aspects of the sims
3 so far but this is actually fun! The hangouts are fun. I love seeing
the sims dance on the tables and the group functions are nice to have
back. The vampires are pretty cool too. So far, my sim has met a few and
they stalk him but they haven't tried to drain his blood or anything.
The blur when they run is pretty neat. I really think that I will love
this expansin and that it will actually keep my interest unlike the
previous two for The Sims 3. If you are a Sims fan, I say give this a
try, I'm so glad I got it! Oh yeah, the new stuff with this expansion is
good too. I really like the new furnishings and clothing. The hair is
still kind of blah but everything else looks really good. I also like
the muscle slider. It gives the buff sims a better look. I haven't tried
the breast slider because I only made a guy so far. A few of the
females in the town have had augmentations though and they look odd to
me. Almost like a couple of balloons have been shoved up their blouses.
