Forum:Game packs?: Difference between revisions

As you may or may not have noticed, EA has rolled out a new type of product, which they've dubbed a "Game Pack." Game Packs (or GPs for short) are somewhat like miniature expansions... they include new objects, interactions, features, and/or destinations, but have less content generally than a full-out expansion. According to EA sources, these aren't replacing Stuff Packs per se, but they generally will have more content than the TS2/TS3 era SPs did.

So from where I'm sitting, I see a couple options jump out. The first is that we keep all the content on the same page but rename that page to something other than Expansion Pack; into a name that will more broadly define content not from a base game. Whatever that term would be, would have to be decided as well. One idea that came to my mind is to lump all these things together as "content packs" and name that article accordingly. A second option would be to split information about EPs, SPs, CPs and GPs onto their own separate articles. Doing this would avoid confusion and solve the issue of what, collectively, these packs should be called. However, it would create some work on our end making all the links lead to the right places, and it may be difficult for us to get enough information for the SP or GP pages to stand on their own merits.
