Thoughts on The Sims 3


Hey

Can you believe there is only 25 days until the Sims 3 is released?

I'm so excited for it, everything just looks so cool with it. Like the fact we can have babies in hospital and at home, and they come wrapped in a blanket or towl as they put it. There has been some debate over whether we will have any pushchairs/prams in the game, I saw on a vid that someone said a baby could be put in a "trolley" but then on an interview they said there wouldn't be any in game, you just carry the toddlers, so the jury's out on that one.

The CASt looks amazing, and I really do think it will mean less CC for my game, my laptop will be happy lol, I don't know about you but the majority of my CC is recolours - so if we can recolour stuff ourselves, we'll only really have to download CC if we can't work out how to get the exact style we want, and someone can.

On the [url=http://www.thesimszone.co.uk/editorials/index.php?ID=74]sims zone[/url] site there is lots of info and wow I really cannot wait!

I love the fact the neighbourhood is seamless - I get so fed up with the blue loading screens, yes it means that I can read a chapter of my book, but it is annoying if you're in a hurry, and the fact we have no loading screens is amazing, we just zoom in to a sim, and then zoom out, and zoom in on another sim. I'm wondering exactly how transport works like does a pop up come up saying where do you want to go or do you in the case of walkin just see where the path takes you?

I forgot that we'll have wind as well, not full blown weather but wind that blows, I wonder if it will effect the sims, I could just see a business man hanging on to dear life to his hat while trying to stay upright. And 28 types of trees - wow that is a lot - I might jut stare at them for a while.

Add to that the CAS - the fact we have ore customisation - I'm sure I'm not the only one that is head over heels in joy because we can finally change the shoes separately to the trousers, and we can CASt them as well - I mean yay EA - I love you I really do! We can effectively make converse shoes of any pattern or rocket dogs - I think that's the make. I am annoyed we only have straight hair but this is only the base game, looking at the hair that came in the sims 2 base game, it's not that good, and to be honest I very rarely use it, I prefer the creative talents of raonsims & xmsims - whic is where the majority of my CC hair is from, so hopefully future expansions they'll give us some different varieties. But then again if we can layer and change the colours of each part, maybe we won't need anymore, who knows.

The clothes look amazing - getting back to CASt again - any pattern on any part of the clothing *passes out in shock* How many times have you downloaded a CC outfit that the only difference with the other CC is that the top colour is different, I have many times and the fact we can customise it ourselves makes all the difference.

Getting to the actual gaming, the trait systems seems to be a really good idea, I cannot wait to mess around, when I play my sims I want them to act more like I want them to, like I made a sim for a beach hut with art stuff in, but my sim did not want to be all that creative, now we can hone our sims to be exactly what we want them to be.

I think I'm even tempted to create myself as a sim in the game and actually play myself which I don't normally do,  I'd be a hopeless romantic, bookworm, computer whiz, family orientated & good sense of humor.

Right well I better go, my friend just called, I'm meeting her she's just had an exam

Happy simming!

Shel :)
