ANNOUNCED!!
Ya! Its on the ts3 site news!!! Dentface 22:23, March 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * It's also announced on their Facebook:

Screenshots from our second Expansion Pack, The Sims 3 Ambitions! The Sims 3 for Mac & PC.

ESRB Rating: TEEN with Crude Humor, Sexual Themes, Violence  Bleeh  Lions make you brave, giants give you faith...♥ 22:26, March 4, 2010 (UTC)

oh and look here its a trailer!!!!!! Dentface 22:40, March 5, 2010 (UTC)

Awesome
So it's real... This really has potential. Let's hope for something good. Coraircate 23:51, March 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * I really hope it's not as much of a let-down as The Sims 3: World Adventures was for me :|.  Bleeh  Lions make you brave, giants give you faith...♥ 23:54, March 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * I dunno. A few patches could fix World Adventures but I doubt there will be too many beyond glitch fixes. And I'm really hoping they do let us play as Servos again. Coraircate 00:00, March 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's not the glitches I didn't like, because I didn't really experience any of those, it's the boring-ness of the game I didn't like. Eventually making your Sims go on vacations gets boring. I really hope they do let us play as Servos, I fell in love with them in TS2 :D.  Bleeh  Lions make you brave, giants give you faith...♥ 00:06, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

New Video?
They said something about a new video, but when i selected to view it, it said the page doesn't exist on EA.com. Was it just a temporary and i missed it? http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd292/scoot1331/Snowballs.png Alex1496  http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd292/scoot1331/Snowballs.png 11:46, March 13, 2010 (UTC)

Challenge "Not Being Able to Own A Business"
I challenge the statement that you cannot own your own business. The article given as a reference indicates that this expansion is focussed on controlling your sims at work, and it is not focussed on running your own business like in Open for Business. However, it does not bluntly state that you cannot buy out the business and then run it, it may well be possible to do both. There is no indication otherwise.

You cannot own a business, at least not as you would in TS2: Open for Business. Basically, you sim purchases a venue somewhere in town. They then have to meet certain requirements, (Number of a specified object etc), according to the lot type. Once your sims has done this they can then start earning money per week. It is practically the same as it was in the base game except you immediately gain control over the venue, (Instead of owning a partnership and then having to buy out all the over partners), and can edit it in build and buy mode. Hope this helps in some way. Oh and please remember to sign your posts Guffers 14:41, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Fireballs/Meteors?
Did anyone watch the Ironman video. It almost looks like those are meteors or fireballs (or satelites) falling from the sky. Do you guys think that will be a feature in the game, I mean, they do have exploseves and earthquakes? -Garret360


 * A piano in the game would be very good! ^_^. Earthquakes have been confirmed to be part of the game, but who knows, EA might take earthquakes out of the game at last minute. Bleeh (talk) 01:31, April 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Or maybe they will have both. [[User:DavidMC123|DavidMC123

im bored
it's cool they made wrld adventures first. and now ambitions. but the ex pack should be animals, and not just pets, but farm and cool wild ones too like monkeys and elephants. but it'd also be cool if u could ride horses and milk cows and stuff. and since ats sims, they'd of course have 2 have llamas!

Laundry System
Please change the statement about the laundry system. It has already been confirmed... By the looks of the sentence, it might seem that the laundry system is yet to be confirmed... that's all

Can I change the statement:

''In a French language interview it was stated that Sims would be able to do laundry and other chores to get Sims in an especially good mood. There will be washers and dryers available including one dryer that has a special "surprise."''

I just want to change the proposed idea of the statement to a more definite one. There is a more definite confirmation of the laundry system in one of the threads in the official forums.The understudy 13:12, May 7, 2010 (UTC)

Commemorative Edition
What's the difference between The Sims 3: Ambitions Expansion Pack Commemorative Edition and the normal The Sims 3: Ambitions Expansion Pack? Guffers 20:16, May 26, 2010 (UTC)

i think its because it comes with a book, it might also come with extra stuff like the collectors edition of TS3. Dentface

Then why is it the same price? I can't decide which one to pre-order! Guffers 15:07, May 27, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks who ever posted the info on ambitions main page. Wow. All that and it's the same price? At least it's the same price at Game.co.uk. Guffers 15:15, May 27, 2010 (UTC)

Frankensim?
I noticed someone added 'Frankensim' to the Creature category ad was wondering where it came from. It was posted by a unregistered contributor; 71.62.105.144. Is it real or just vandalism? Guffers 16:45, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

Can someone change or remove the text about frankensim saying 'Some players believe that testing experimental medicines..' etc, as it has been confirmed. --Guffers 14:39, May 30, 2010 (UTC)

The user posted a link to the fourm on The sims 3 site that talks about frankensim and the prima guide. they mentioned an interview with grant where he mentioned it. grant "a.k.a. Simguruwarus" did not post on that forum nor has any of the interviews that he's been in recently has he mentioned Frankensim thus i removed the entry above Renovation mode.

Price
How much does The Sims 3:Ambitions cost??monster2821?

On the official GAME website, it's said that if you pre order the game, it will only cost £19.99, but if you buy it in store, it should cost £24.99, for both the standard game, and the commemorative edition.

thank you

neighbourhoods
does anyone know if we need to go to twinbrook for the new features that come with ambitions, or will the previous sunset valley and riverview have the features as well? 206.45.184.13 01:41, June 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * In the past new features have been available in all neighbourhoods, although the new neighbourhood is likely to have premade sims in the new careers, etc. --a_morris (talk) 03:01, June 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree with morris and for the new careers like firefighter etc there will most probably be lot's in the lot bin thing that you can then place into sunset valley or riverview. The things that are in those towns will also be upgraded, so for example the school in sunset valley will have the option to join the education career once you've installed Ambitions, hope this helps, Guffers 14:45, June 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * :hey is anyone ever going to update this thing its getting annoying its been out forever someone update this!!gosh Expecially TwinBrook

How Do You Uninstall?
Thats enough said how do you uninstall it because its freaking gay and only goes to a black screen and kicks off when I try to play it. ♥Icyyy♥ 19:14, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

Updates
I seriously think all of the Ambitions pages deserve a MASSIVE cleanup. The game has already been released (I bought it as soon as it came out in Australia), people already own it, so why is everything all "the time machine MAY be a rabbit hole" (it is) or "the personal drilling device" (for starters, it's called a MINER.) Although I have to admit that is getting better, there are a lot of errors that need to be fixed. Egghead59 21:47, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

Stop!
Don't put the "under development" tag please people!,it's out.?monster2821?

nevermind

Funny thing on this page
Someone write 'poo poo heads' last of 'Hobbies and Profession' I think someone hate this title and and write it. I wonder who did this? DiamondSim 12:06, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Forgot to tell, i edited this page. ;) DiamondSim 12:07, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

HELP!
Ok so i got the game and installed it but when i try to play it goes to a black screen then goes back to my screen helps! ♥Icyyy♥ 12:11, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

EU release date?
I've seen plenty of sources that give June 4 as the EU release date, but some mention it as the projected date. When was it actually released in Europe? Dharden 14:05, June 22, 2010 (UTC)
