The Sims 3: Supernatural - Officially Announced!

[samoht04]

9.6 GB of hard drive space if installing with The Sims 3. <This is what is says in the specifications, so is it 9GB?!? 

No. It means if you install both Supernatural and The Sims 3 then it will take 9.6GB. Just remember that The Sims 3 is 6.1GB so it will be around 3.5 GB which is the average for an EP I think.

Glad I have decided to reinstall that whole sims space to my other hard drive. C Drive get overloaded with sims stuff in no time. 20 GB of pure sims plus expansions is no acception.
Is it already known if this expansion will show up in every country on the same date?

Can someone post a summary of the chat when it's over?

[ladybug53]

I really like what I just saw in the live chat. I will be pre-ordering it to get the Plants verses Zombies as well . It looks like there will be other Live Chats in the future and Blog Posts. It all looks pretty awesome!  Anxious to see fairies fly or see a little pixie.

We can create ghosts in Create-A-Sim! Woot!

Imagine my frustration when I converted the date in PST to NZT, after finding out EA's location, and choosing the right city in the list... only to find out that it was 3 hours ago.

Can someone post a summary of the chat when it's over?

You can watch it all again on the same page:

I'm fairly certain I'm going to have to make a Manwich now.  Both the food kind and the Sim kind.  SimsVIP has an entire album of screenshots from the live chat.   I had it at fullscreen doing a replay and I kept forgetting it wasn't my screen doing it.



Limited Edition Pack Stuff


Decor Pack for ordering with Origin

Also, SimGuruSarah said they changed their mind and they are updating the store items to work with the new expansion.  For more details, go to this thread on the official TS3 forums.

Peashooters in 3D!!  That is awesome. 

[xFezIsAFreakx]

How much more expensive is the Limited Edition, or how much more expensive are they usually? I never bother getting the limited edition but I kind of want this one.

[Sunnysabjes]

It seems so cool! I want the limited! Lots of supernaturals to make and I just loved the fairy wings. I still think that the best thing is going to be the lunar cycle. I'm glad it's not just limited to moonlight falls. 

[MarianT]

Usually the limited edition doesn't cost any more; you just have to pre-order it or get it the first day.

[Lizzy3272]

Hooray for Peashooters looking as awesome as I'd hoped they be!

Also, thank you for posting those pics of the Limited Edition content - which I will definitely be purchasing although I'd hoped there would be more than 3 items!  (Maybe there will be later on.)

I've heard in the Sims 3 Community there wasn't much announced in the Live Chat besides what you already know from reading the first page of this forum...  (I will see for myself hopefully around lunchtime today.)  A few things I saw scrolling through their thread was you can create Ghosts in CAS, Fairies can fly to their destinations, and Werewolves are scared of rolled up newspapers...  Not a breath was mentioned about the vampires and not even a screenshot of the new town was shown.    Kind of lame for a Live Chat - seems like they shouldn't have even bothered yet...

I have a feeling that one of the changes with Vampires will be that they don't have to ask "permission" anymore to feed.  I came to that conclusion based on the Zombie biting the terrified Sim in the Supernatural Trailer - he certainly didn't seem like HE gave permission, and last I checked Zombies weren't so good with the whole "asking" thing (or communication in general)..  So if a Zombie doesn't have to ask, why should a Vampire?!  Wow.  That will certainly make Vampires a LOT funner to play!  My excitement level for this EP just went up about 3 notches.    Hopefully in another 2 months or so they'll do a real Live Chat.
