The most annoying thing is how your sims, which you have spent ages playing with, just disappear! DISAPPEAR! What?! When you're not playing with families sims or whole households can just disappear from the game, and they don't change in the family tree view! Is there a reason for this? Can it be fixed because for me this problem has ruined the game, completely ruined it! For example Michael Bachelor disappeared, Agnes Crumplebottom, her husband and her daughter disappeared. Claire Ursine and herhere children ALL disappeared...etc etc...I lose more and more sims everyday! I actually lost a household of SIX sims! Please can anybody explain this?? awnser: there can only be so many people in the town. Only so many toddlers some many boys girls. so every time you put a sim in a neibor hood you have the chance of bumping another person out.
 
I think its because the story progression is moving them out.- Someone

:Alright, i dont own the sims 3 recently, but i have and idea, well here i go. I think that it can be glitchy but at the same time would you rather it not glitchy without the joy/sting or would you rather it glitchy with entertainment and a mysterous "WOW" in the middle of it. I've also noticed theres some  "Cheats" Which i think is *Fantastic* especially when you need "Money" and what type of game do you know that doesnt glitch nor has cheats (If you have and idea of a game please list it down below). I also think the amount of outfits you start out with is alright because why would you want and "over load" when you can have the  simplest things that can become the biggest things. Also the 3D is fantastic, you could barely tell if their even animated. The amount of space given to you is bizarre but GREAT, feels like you re-living your "Dream" life in an actual world put into a game made just for you. Yeah well thats my oppinion and if you agree like,Like,LIKE. -From: Feminem (12/6/2013) XOXO
:Alright, I don't have the Sims 3, but here is my opinion on it. After reading about it, I think it will be very fun. But the sad thing is, it sounds really glitchy. I mean sure the Sims 2 is glitchy but this sounds worse. And the fact you can't cheat even a little? Awful. Teens take forever to grow up! I know you can call me a cheater, because that is true. I think everyone atleast cheated sometimes. :P But anyways, I haven't even collected all the expansion packs for the Sims 2 yet!!! I got Pets and Nightlife and Family Fun Stuff for 40$ and I am hoping to get Sims 2:Seasons and Apartment life (witches, yay! :D) --[[User:TetoKasane|TetoKasane]] 20:09, June 30, 2010 (UTC)

==Why did Will Wright and Maxis have to Depart from The Sims Project and work on Spore?==
The Sims 1 and 2 were funny because of Maxis but Maxis is now working on sequels, extensions, and stand alone games for Spore. Now Sims are less rude and no jokes. If EA asked myme to work on The Sims 4 I make it like Th Sims 1 and 2 some elements from the shelved game Simsville and The Sims 3.
 
== The Slow Decline of the Originality of this Series ==

Response 2: Yep, you're right, TS really is the best game ever and if they think the image is bad, just adjust it at the options screen. The only problem is that here in Brazil the prices are way high!
 
== The Problems with The Sims 3 ==
 
=== Problem 1: Lack of objects ===
 
For music skill there is only a guitar. What about the classic piano from The Sims 1?
 
I could stay all the day talking about objects that I would like to see, like cars or whatever. However, I know what's the problem: EA Games.
 
EA Games is like a restaurant that serve food, however you must pay a tax to use the fork. EA Games wants for you to have the obligation of buying objects from the online store of Expansion Packs. Pretty $mart, huh?
 
=== Problem 2: Sims now live for their own... however they don't live for their own ===
 
This is quite a problem, as you don't really feel your Sim is living. And it should in The Sims 3, differently from 1 and 2.
 
* Sims don't visit lots for themselves.
* Sims don't complete their wishes for themselves.
* Sims don't work skills for themselves.
* Sims don't (really) keep friendships and romantic relationships for themselves.
* Sims don't (really) have family for themselves.
* Etc...
 
You know what I am talking about. Maybe in some rare ocasions a sim will go to the restaurant, or have a baby, but it's very rare! At least half of people have a son through the course of their lives, don't?
 
=== Problem 3: Wishes system ===
 
Seriuosly, why do you need to select each wish for your Sim?? It can be fun at the beggining, but it turns quite annoying after some time since you must stay monitoring if a new wish show up...
 
It should have a huge list of wishes, each one with a lifetime (I.e. "eat in the restaurant in the next 1 day", or "get a promotion in the next 7 days"), which you (or even your Sim, see problem #2) would release whenever you feel.
 
=== Problem 4: Cars that serve for nothing ===
 
If you don't have a car in real life, you can't go to work. In Sims 3 there is always a carpool for you.
 
And not to forget that there is free Taxi everywhere in the city!!
 
=== Problem 5: Expansion Pack compatibility ===
 
This problem is a left-over of The Sims 2. Your wish/aspiration list is flooded with expansion pack annoying things! I.e. "Use a bathroom in France."

===Problem 6: Opportunities===
In China, one of the Visa challenges is to bring this guy a bottle of nectar from France. Three days to go home (unless you leave early, which is a waste of cash), two day wait, France for five minutes to get bottle, go home, two days, come back. Is it just me, or is this anal retentive?
 
Also, opportunities come EVERY FIVE SECONDS. Sometimes they're neat and useful, but mostly they make you wanna rip your hair out.

== Living Neighborhood? Not Really ==
 
Yes, sims grow up and have kids and die and get promoted and ect. when your not playing them, but some small things just aren't right. For exmaple, a sims I was playing on had called another sim on her cell phone. While she was talking, I scrolled around the neighborhood, and I saw the person she was talking to on another lot. However, the person she was talking to was NOT TALKING ON A CELL PHONE! And when I went back to my sim, she was still talking to the person. Even though he was not actually on his cell phone.
 
==Yet another opinion==
 
 
Well, I played all three main games in the series, and I think that each one of them was way better than the previous one. I TS3 case, it's huge! I mean, I know it's buggy (to start up I've got to CTRL+ALT+DELETE, then I'll get a message saying something along the lines of "You're playing with a mod uncompatible with your current version of TS3. Want to go on?". Gettin' that ever since I installed Into the Future. Not to forget my oldest family somehow got stuck in the future), but really, it's great. I mean, it could more realistic (free taxis? LOL I wish that was real) but the Create a Style, the great EPs (Supernatural, although not a new idea, is AWESOME!), the CAS, are just a few examples of how the game got better. If you ask most of the people who played it for a while, they'll say something like "I can't play TS2 now"(or was that just everyone I personally met? Nevermind). That fact speaks for itself.
 
I don't expect much more from TS4 other than low bug-crash-lag-whatever rate. And a few new things right? Mwahahahaha! [[User:Baluar|Baluar]] ([[User talk:Baluar|talk]]) 16:43, March 19, 2014 (UTC)
