I can't find a quiz on facebook does anyone have a link and the live replay is down so I can't watch it. 

Found the quiz!

This is so amazing! I pre-ordered through Origin, hoping to get a copy of BB I'm so glad I did it! Does anyone have the link to the live broadcast? I was in bed and missed it lol so I need to see it!

Note: Houseboat bases can be 10×8, 15×10, 20×15, 14×6, or 12×8. Houseboats with curved bows are 14×6 or 12×8. Houseboat walls can be built up to the edge of the platform, but you need a 3×2 space cleared so you can fish. If you choose to buy a premade houseboat instead, the largest is 9,000 simoleons and the smallest is free.

I'm glad there is a free houseboat. I like playing homeless Sims without money

If you pre-ordered through Amazon, not Origin, do you still get the free Barnacle Bay?

They only mention Origin.

If you want it from the Sims site, it can be found here:
http://www.thesims.com/en_US/live

However, the Sims site link is showing it as being on Youtube, so if you want to go to Youtube directly, it will be on the Sims Channel here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1JPOm_sY1o

However, as of my posting, the video isn't available for rewatching (probably just some problem on Youtube's end).  Additionally, if you do get it working, it has about 20 extraneous minutes you may wish to skip.  EA usually has the videos edited later to skip such waits in time later.

Thanks Bri! I can't seem to get either one to play though! I'll keep trying, but the screen just goes black and won't play even if I try to forwards it.

It could be some problem with Youtube, or EA could actually be doing some editing (like that first 20 minutes I mentioned).  Sadly, others are having the same issue with it.  I would try again later.

I kept refreshing and was finally able to watch it. That is awesome, I can't wait to scuba dive and find a mermaid! Also, a new cheat?? Yay I love cheating haha.

Seeing as I already have barnicale bay, it really wasn't that much of an incentive for me to preorder.

[doxxielover]

When you preorder do you get it in physical form? And do you get it on your doorstep the day its released? Thanks!

[ladybug53]

You can choose Digital or Physical copy . I always get it delivered on the day it's released and I live in Canada .

Edit to add : I pre-order from Origin and it get delivered by UPS .

[Ricalynn]

Sometimes you do.  It depends on where you pre-order it from and what kind of shipping you pay for.  Sometimes it's a surprise and there on the right day sometimes it's the day after.  Pre-ordering can be done digitially or physically.  I always get downloads now.

[doxxielover]

I was thinking of ordering off of origin so I can get the deal. Are they specifically reliable to be on your doorstep day off? Thank you so much and I was wanting physical copy. Also would Barnicle bay be a code or a physical copy? Thank you!!

[Ricalynn]

My understanding is the worlds are just codes you use in the store.  I don't know if they are discs yet.

I don't know anything about shipping so someone else will answer that question.


I just want to mention that Graham let slip a new interaction.     With Island Paradise, you'll be able to click on a parking space and buy a car. 

[doxxielover]

That's cool and thanks!
