EA Survey for Sims 2: Apartment Life (possible details) Reindeer911 over at the Sims 2 Community Forums received a Survey from EA today asking what features they would like to see in an Apartment expansion. They were kind enough to post the important stuff from the survey: Please take the time to read the following concept description for a potential Sims 2 Expansion Pack. Your Sims are moving into a brand-new apartment, and their lives will never be the same! Adventure, fun, and drama await them as they move into the perfect apartment, whether its a spacious loft, a cozy one bedroom for couples, or a multi-bedroom flat with roommates. Meet and socialize with new neighbors to form networks, become friends with the landlord to decrease rent, and make friends that can help advance their career or lovelife. Will they mingle in coffee shops, take in a show at the local comedy club or hit the streets to learn from the breakdancers? Whatever new lifestyle they choose, your Sims will face all-new challenges, from getting along with roommates to dealing with noisy neighbors and meddlesome landlords. Take your Sims out of the serene suburbs and into apartment life with this new expansion pack! The following is a list of features that may be included in a new apartment life themed expansion pack. Please indicate which features you would be interested in playing.

Penned miniature dog Vending machine Medicine Cabinet Spiral Staircase Playground Slide Fire hydrant with sprinkler Merry Go Round Playground Lookout Tower Ceilings Huge Saltwater aquarium Ceiling Fans Toddler Spring Rider Graffiti Food replicator (machine that makes any food you want) Overhead cabinets Baby Floor Gym Murphy Bed (bed stored in a wall cabinet) Ownable Helicopter Closet Hopscotch Monkey Bars Baby Bouncy Chair None of the above Please note that this isnt a true list of what we will be getting, its just what was asked from EA. I wouldnt doubt that some of these will make it into the new pack though. Graffiti, ceilings and spiral staircases are a must for me!
All of the objects and interactions for kids I would love! The spiral staircase has been something the community has been asking for since TS2 came out. Vending machines would be nice. Being able to ask the neighbors to baby sit would be awesome! Ruth
I think this finally is the last ep as why else would they offer all the stuff we've been wanting that was in the Sims1 but hasn't come to us except through mods. The playground equipment I've been wanting for some time!
You know I just thought they may want this ep to be like a bridge between ts2 and ts3. You know bring some ts1 things that we've been wanting and sneak in some features from ts3. Don't know if that would make this the last ep or not but it could be a good one to go out on and make the change. Ruthie
Of course then again they could keep on milking the great Sims2 cow they have now as they know it's going to keep making money for awhile longer.
