vrx 0 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 this. it was not THAT bad and mine did not crash or bug while playing It did when you had expansion packs which weren't properly patched thanks to EA. There IS a reason that they received worst company twice in a row. Enjoy robots though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

heavymlover 340 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 TS3 was not that bad imo. I do agree that it's completely unfair to pay EA's inflated prices just to get a bunch of glitches though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GagaObsession 1 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 To be honest, I never played TS3, I'm still playing TS2. It's still that good and I wasn't going to waste all those years of money spent on expansions and the time and effort it took to build up my collection of custom content just to dump it all for TS3, which was only a very slight upgrade anyway. And I'm glad I didn't. Most people said TS3 wasn't that much different from TS2 (some even preferred TS2) and the entire lifespan of the series was over within just 5 years anyway. When I researched the history of it, I was shocked to discover it was that short because TS2 seemed to last for ages with all its expansions. Then I realised that it only seemed that way because I had kept on playing it 5 years after the final expansion pack was released. And 5 years was how long TS3 lasted. The final TS2 expansion pack was in 2008. God, that makes me feel old. And I still haven't got complete fun out of the series yet after all this time. I spent the majority of my time making photo stories out of existing movies and books (sounds so sad, I know) and it took way too long for me to realise that the enjoyment came from assembling the scene and taking the photo, not writing the text underneath and certainly not reading the whole thing back afterwards. I wasted too much time on that rather than just playing the game properly. So, that's what I'm doing now after re-discovering it after putting it on the back burner for months. But I do realise if I love this franchise and do want to continue playing it, I will have to eventually move on to TS4. I'm not completely sussed on computer knowledge and I didn't realise that eventually, after so many years, computer programs move on and are no longer capable of being purchased or repaired if anything goes wrong. This also means that if you get a new computer, it won't have this outdated system, and that also means that your old PC games from years ago won't play on it. So, it's not just that game developers want to keep getting your money or pushing their product to the next generation, it's that they have to keep the franchise alive for the existing fans who can no longer play the old games because they've updated their computers to the newest systems. It's all quite sad, really. The last TS2 expansion pack's system requirements have Windows Vista as its most recent option. I've got Windows Vista (I got this laptop in 2007) and mainstream support ended in April 2012, but extended support for exisiting customers won't end until April 2017, so I've got another 3 years out of this laptop and TS2. I'll probably keep at it because I love it so much and move on once all Vista support has ended and start afresh with a new laptop and the new Sims game. First and foremost, I want to see how good TS4 is before buying it. The cartoony graphics are the only thing putting me off, though. And they probably won't look as cartoony when we're actually playing it. Tell me about it. That's why I'm glad I skipped TS3. It's annoying that they go right on to the next series immediately after the last one finishes, just as some more casual fans may have just bought the entire collection only to realise they should have waited that little bit longer for something even better. It's like, give us a bit of breathing room and time to enjoy the games we just purchased! Exactly! It's like they are expecting fans to be able to afford to buy all of the content at the start to have time to play through it all before the next game comes out, it's crazy! I was literally buying an expansion pack every few months if that so now I finally have them and the next one is out I am a bit pissed off.

Hellspont 1,468 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 So its 3 but you get a 4th from your aspiration? Overall it looks more cartoonish that I would like but the CAS looks good. I need open world game play though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcphee 1,778 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 The game is everything I hoped for tbh. So much fantastic new USABLE content in the base game, which is amazing though unexpected. I'm so hyped for this release. Only 3 trait slots :( The traits may play a much bigger role than before though? In ts3 they were just kind of there. amazon though Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
