New Expansion Pack "Late Night"

[Leto85]

Well, I'm glad I managed to see the video... I can't wait for Late Night now, might even pre-order it! Dancing on tables, and the vampire hunt, brilliant. Definitely like predator! :-D

That dancing on tables line, can I take that litterly? Cause I haven't read about sims acually doing that.

@idoha: what a wonderfull translation! Thank you for doing this huge work it must have been for you. And welcome to the forum.

Yup, you can take that literaly! There is an option when clicking on the tables to dance on them! It was in the gamespot video. The animation for the hunt mode for the vampires was really cool, and the 'prey' look like the prey in predator mode (for those who like the film). You also saw an animation for mixologist - at low level. It's very funny with lots of being clumsy and 'throwing' the mixers everywhere.

On page 48 of this thread is the video where you can see them actually dancing on the table, it was a hoot to watch and I can't wait to try the bartenders and vampires.

Can anyone do a let's play of late night?

Does anyone know if we can make Vamps in CAS or whether they have to be Transformed in game?

Judging by the Gamespot video demo of the game and the various articles done by them saying how hard it is to become a vampire and be in a band, I'd say it's safe to assume you cannot make vampires in CAS. I'd assume as much anyways because they are special creatures, like Simbots or Mummies or playable Ghosts. Don't quote me on that though.

Once upon a time, they said that any functionality added to CAS had to be added for all players in the form of an update.  So I assume that means no vampires in CAS, because then people would get them even if they didn't buy Late Night. 

For example, the new breast/muscle sliders:  apparently everyone gets them in the form of an update even if you don't buy Late Night.

While I agree with what you're saying, part of me is also saying, "Yeah, but I want to create a vampire Dynasty/Legacy." In other words, you'd actually be starting with Vlad the Impaler as legend has it as ground zero (or whoever you want to call your Founder). I just find it really odd that you would have to have a Sim be turned to kick start things. I don't know. Tomorrow will bring lots of answers.

I am a long time forum lurker  . I don't know if this is the right place for this question, if not mods feel free to move.

First off I want to say how excited I am for Late night. It combines all the thing that I loved about the sims and sims 2!

Does anyone know if you pre-order Late Night as a direct download from the EA website (the site that the sims 3 site sends you to when you click to order) if you can download it at midnight? And if not, if I buy it at midnight do I still receive the bonus pre-order items and will I be able to download it right way!

Any info would be great, I want to start playing right away. I can't wait!

I was thinking the same thing apart from the LTW and the name, I wanted to start a Vampire Legacy but I think there may be complications of the turning of Sims, until we know more on the Blood Line and effects on vampires I don't think I can start a Vampire story.

Gamestop just emailed me my bonus codes.

[Telsey]

I am so tempted to go up to Gamespot tonight at midnight.  It seems sort of nuts but I sure want that expansion pack.  Wonder why they didn't email me my bonus codes?  I got the phone call but no codes.

Gamestop just emailed me my bonus codes.

Jealous!  I also got a phone call which I was not able to listen to, I was on the other line, but I haven't received my codes yet.  I will be at Gamestop at midnight!  I am excited!

[RunAmokSims]

I'll be asleep or in bed with a book at midnight. My husband did promise to be at Game Spot at 10AM in the morning to pick up my copy. 

I read that if you are physically picking up the game there you get a card with the codes.

[samoht04]

I have to wait till friday around 1pm for mine to be delivered.  The UK thing is a bad thing sometimes!
