    Crinrict visits the future – Into the future preview

    At SimsCamp and the German community event at Gamescom we had ample time to test the upcoming expansion pack Into the Future. We did have to share computers but it was interesting to look over the shoulder of other players and watch what they were doing. Functionality The new expansions comes with many new, futuristic objects and is a mix of World Adventures and a conventional expansion pack. Traveling to and from the future is probably based on the same (buggy) system as World Adventures and University Life. Contrary to both the older expansions, your sims can stay in the future…

I did not receive a detailed program yet but what I can see on the short description I got, sounds very exciting. I’m still a little unsure how to organize my posts here and on which aspects I should focus. It will be way to early to say anything about any bugs and you’ll read all about the most important News and features on other sites. I will…
