Here's what I think EA are going to release as future expansion packs:
- A nightlife/hot date combined expansion pack. So you get more sims wandering about at night time. And a shop-style bar where you will have a sim serving drink (like buying food in WA). Also more romantic interactions. Plus I think they would also combine this with more musical instruments.
- An outdoors expansion pack. So it would have pets and seasons, expanded gardening - so maybe farms I'm thinking. Plus more animals in it than just the cats/dogs and non-interactive birds, etc. I really really hope they do this one as I loved unleashed and want pets back.
To me it seems like EA are combining all the best things out of sims1 and 2, however doing it in a different order and way. So WA was vacations and holiday however they added a sims3 twist with all the tomb raiding, etc.
What I would also like to see is a Magic expansion pack (I loved that one). I especially like the spells and baking part of it. A bit like nectar, you mixed a few things together and see what comes out. So far sims3 only has transifguration and nectar as a bit of an unknown lets-see-what-we-get-if-I-do this interaction.
Some personal peeves with sims3 - the action queue! I can't stand it when one of my sims starts an action that I wanted them to do, but you can't queue anything up afterwards as that action will be deleted. Also would love to be able to change the queue order.
The pathing issues still irritate me, especially when there is tons of room for them to move around. I find this happens especially in the toddlers room when they leave their toys around. I'm like, what are you doing, there's tons of room to walk around that rabbit!
