EA refused to fix the open world glitches and Story Progression while they left players to turn to mods to remove stuck sims, cars, and errors. So they removed it, what kind of lazy ass mess?

This isn't new either though. Memories in TS2 corrupted data so badly that they just removed it for the majority of TS3s life until finally adding it later on. They never learn.

I will wait for a major price drop of the deluxe edition which includes pools. This game sounds a mess so far.

See, CaS looks good, but I feel like it's not as great as they're making it. Sure, it's better to not have sliders, but from the looks of things, you can't actually change the facial structure as much as you'd like to. You just kind of stretch what's already there rather than building up a new face... But that's just from what we've seen. It'll probably be as amazing as they've made it out to be when we get the game.
The overall problem with this game is that instead of fixing past problems, they're removing everything about it altogether. People disliked Toddlers because they were useless, so they got rid of Toddlers. Problems with lost Sims due to open world, got rid of open world, and so on. They have so much they could've done to improve these things, but since they had problems with it, they just removed them altogether rather than fixing them.

I still don't understand how with today's gaming technology they refuse to make Sims grow gradually without the use of "life stages". It's an old concept that's long overdue.

This would be so cool.
I know they have a mod for the sims 3 to have it but not sure how good it works.

I'm worried about CAS. they make it seem fun and easy but I'm worried it'll be REALLY difficult to use.

Sims could grow up as days go by, these days a function like this shouldn't be too hard to implement. They could also add a height slider, but they'd rather focus on leaving features out rather than putting them in.

I'm for at least Sims growing gradually height-wise within life stages, and then the growth spurts between the life stages.

I just bought the Sims 3 and Im having so much fun.
My sim is going through hell.
First he found a man then cheated on him with another man and then that man died and he found another man but then he turned old so he found a new man and forgot to break it off with the old guy so his new man accused him of cheating and dumped him and then he finally found a husband and they had a son, but I left them alone a bit to add more households and when I came back he got caught cheating with the male house keeper and now his husband divorced him.

You should leave them alone without interference, they will get into all sorts of trouble.

The moment they took out CASt I knew something was off. Also, I knew toddlers and pools wouldn't be in when it wasn't shown at E3.
Teens are also the same height as YA & Adults. So yeah... this is officially, without a doubt, The Sims | Ha Spirit Indestructible era-ha

Your computer specs are probably right under the reqs. Turn down your reflections and you'll probably be good.

I remember once I had a single father with two kids. When the grew up the boy had a husband and a child and I tried to make the girl steal this rich womans husband so she could move in with them, but the rich lady kicked him out and he had to move in with them and then everybody would drag him everyday.
