Island Paradise Expansion Pack

[Bri]

Wait, so the coal walking only comes with special edition?! That is so mean. I was really looking forwards to that. Oh well, there's still a Kraken!

The coal/fire walking will be in the Island Paradise.  The newest pictures Ricalynn put up highlights a couple outfits exclusive to the Origin exclusive purchase called the Carnaval Costume Pack.

I quite like the male one.  The ladies' ones...could use with some work.

Tip: Poor upkeep can tank your resort’s quality rating that in turn can result in fewer customers. Each piece of garbage or broken appliance will be reflected negatively in the resort reviews panel. And yes, roaches. When I queried the team and asked what best represented a poorly maintained hotel, the unanimous answer was “roaches”.

lol, I didn't see this until just then. This so reminds me of Sims stomping roaches in Sims 2!

Oh my poor sims in sims 2, they had to stomp and spray those roaches all the time.

And then they'd get the flu!

Lol I don't like the towns name lol it sounds too tacky

Hmm...I love Sunset Valley.  Its pretty much the only town I play in.  But with everything I have seen of Island Paradise, I really think it might become my new main town to play in.  I've got several idea I want to try, such as a barge for a junkyard, if there isn't already one, and maybe set up some of the clubs on houseboats as well.  With a few exceptions, I think it will be easier to add stuff to Ilsa Paradisia from the other expansions than trying to find ways to integrate dive spots, resorts, and houseboats into the other towns.  Chances are I'll be spending the first month or so creating the other various community lots I want to add to it.  Hope it comes with plenty of empty lots to add all the bars/clubs, consignment shop, firehouse, cat/dog park, equestrian center, and Showtime venues.

I am really hoping I can play the dive sites and boats, etc., on my Sunlit Tides neighbourhood - I really don't want to move to Isla Paradisa (it doesn't look anywhere as beautiful!). So I guess I'm just hoping that the dive sites are not exclusively in the new world - I hope they can spawn or be placed in other worlds - and that jetties/piers where we moor our boats can be made too.

It looks better over time, I'm not one for that type of environment; beach, hot climate.  It wouldn't be a place I would want to live in, but a nice place to visit for a vacation.  Was on a cruise once and loved it, so I think I would enjoy building a houseboat and living on the ocean.  Surprising, took a vacation where there was a lot of flat land and just didn't like it, felt uncomfortable, too exposed.  But the flat ocean, nothing in sight; replace the grass, empty fields with water yet I enjoyed it, found it relaxing.
 
Anyhow, I think it would be a fun town, swim with sharks (trying to not get eaten!) finding treasure, mermaids, the kracken, maybe building a resort, definitely exploring the ocean islands.  A vacation from the two towns I love, MF and RV, with MV becoming a third favorite. 

I do hope they have lots and lots of empty lots, and not the to small sizes or 20 x 30, but plenty of 40 x 40 or 50 x 50 lots.  Might be hard to do on an island, though. 

It will be later after it becomes available that I can afford to buy it, Dragon Valley comes first, but am looking forward to getting it.

I just watched the producer walkthrough and it made me even more excited! I just hope death by shark isn't completely random... I couldn't trust my Sims to go scuba diving if it was!

I want this expansion. I want it very much. I mean . . . stilted foundations?! That is so awesome, and it lets people build huge resorts on small beach lots!

I'm so excited for this E.P. it comes out on my birthday (25th) in the US but will it come out on the 28th in the UK

Every screenshot I see makes me want it more and more.  Those coolers really are umm..cool.

Is that a sea monster in the background or a water feature?

[grimsoul]

That new screenshot is really cool. I'm looking forward to this EP more and more.
