What to expect Now that the Nightlife EP is out, I would like to know what I can expect from it. I am still enjoying University immensely - havent had the chance i play at all for 5 months, so - and just dont want to rush out and buy the game. What about items? Are there more building tools? Doors, windows, carpets, chars?
Yes, yes, and yes. Jack, this EP is, in my opinion, much better than Uni. The cars and the downtown area are a big improvement. New characters, new interactions, some of them actually make sense! Building: more building options in terms of the roof, building garages and carpots, new interiors and exteriors.
Don't forget the half walls Kristal! One of my favourite new features. You can build pools on angles, there are lots of new objects (ie. rugs, paintings, decorations etc.) Definitely worth it, far better than Uni.
I have to say I was very unenthusiastic about this ep. I was so disappointed with University that I was ready to say goodbye to the whole sims franchise. I got caught up in others' enthusiasm and broke down. I must admit I'm enjoying Nightlife immensely! The Prima guide has been a necessity this time because without it I find I miss many of the new ways the sims can interact. Downtown is actually fun! I thought the cars were a dumb idea but I'm enjoying those as well. It's no big deal to run out to pick up groceries or make a mad dash to work now. This is the first time (in TS1 or TS2) that I've enjoyed going places. Even the townies and NPC's look better for some reason. After a few weeks of University, I was bored. I don't feel I've even scratched the surface with Nightlife yet.
I thought Uni was great. I liked the idea of the campus, the atmosphere i got when building my own campussesesesssess... But if you guys say that NL is much better, then out of my way! Im shopping for it tomorrow! I thought Uni was g
