They should’ve added modeling, shooting a video and probably movie. 🙁 But hey… They can always make another EP to milk players.

I think the new social feature is just another thing thats going to clog up people’s games, like this new shop mode we have. I can already see the problems it’s going to cause…..

I’m not exactly sure what it means by “mandatory friends” but I’m guessing players need other players if they want to participate in the social features and SimPort obviously. I do not think it means you need friends to progress your sims career if you do not want to participate.

SimGuruSnelson did say that those who did not want to use SimPort/Social Features can opt-out without affecting any gameplay. However, extra content used as rewards can be earned only through using the online features. But in no way adds any new interactions/etc. that already is not in game in some other variation. Well at least that is how I see it anyway.

Anyway, I am glad that Starlight Shores is another city. Bridgeport is really urban and nice and gives a nice change of scenery for a change. I cannot wait to learn more about the small venues besides the coffee shop if there are any new ones.

Hopefully they will spend time on it and make it better though I didn’t really like bridgeport I think it was because it was concrete terrian and I like grass haha

It sounds like if you don’t play online the game is going to be limited which isn’t good in my opinion. Well atleae we now know Starlight Shores will be a city like Bridgeport.
