I really hope that Seasons wont be like cut into pieces like this.

This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places and incidents either are products of the author s imagination or are used fictitiously. Any resemblance to actual events or locales or persons, living or dead, is not entirely coincidental.

Maxis: Lord EA, look at our coming soon TS 4 Seasons! Look at this marvelous Temperature System. The majestic seasonal events and the seasons. Snows, igloos, snowboard!
EA: -triggered- Igloos? NOPE NOPE NOPE make it into 10$ Nordic Stuff Pack. Snowboarding? Nope.... Lets add them into Mountain Resort Game Pack thats 20$.
Maxis: Can i continue, my lord?
EA: Yes, you can.
Maxis: Look at this majestic spring festival!
EA: Nope this festival can go to Spring Festival Stuff Pack for 10$.
Maxis: Summer festival, my lord. Harvest festival!
EA: Naaaah just make them Summer Festival Stuff Pack, but they can have pineapple on their pizza. Well speaking of Hawaiian stuffs, i changed my mind. I will let them have Pineapple on their Pizza with Beach Resort Game Pack thats 20$.
Maxis: (Think Maxis Think! Spooky stuffs is already there!) For Autumn, lets add Moon Festival?
EA: I would do that on Moon Festival Pack. Next!
Maxis: I only have Temperature, Season and its weather then.
EA: Sounds perfect for me.

It is only misleading because you did not read.

I said Unleashed and Vacation. I did not put the two in order, but these two packs were released next to one another, which is why I used and instead of then. The order is reversed, but that is irrelevant since the two were released back-to-back.

I also specified that Pets & Seasons were produced back-to-back by the Redwood Shores team. The Redwood Shores team developed World Adventures, Ambitions, Late Night, Geberations, Pets, Seasons, and Island Paraduse. That is far from misleading.

Source?

Or just Seasons without temperature or one of it's elements (heatstroke, freezing, death?). Anything can be expected, as they dare to omit the abilities of dogs to chew furniture, like one of the basic things what makes a dog a dog.

Well, they dared to cut Cats & Dogs by taking the little rodent away and put some set of furniture that supposed to be one set as a stuff pack. So why not the Seasons?
Many peoples saying that My First Pet Stuff supposed to be the FREE PATCH for PETS which have been cut to Cats & Dogs. It wont be surprise if anytime Birds are coming as stuff pack or horse as game pack.
TS 3 Seasons was my fav TS 3 Pack but knowing EA, i am pretty sure that TS 4 Seasons will be pretty much adding temperature, weathers and seasons just like TS 2 Seasons.

I'm not the person you quoted but I also saw this the other day, but there wasn't an update when I read it. It didn't seem legit to me in the first place.

Thought so. Please don't say "confirmed" when it isn't officially announced by EA themselves.

Oh, I did read. All I wanted to point out is that you are misleading yourself by drawing conclusions from unrelated instances. It's a very shaky ground to base your reasoning on.
In the first case you argue based on release date in the second based on developing studio. I suspect that your main point of reference is TS2, which would then be treated like the gold standard. But I don't think that this is valid as a "clue".

The fact that Vacation, TS1's Seasons, was followed by Unleashed, TS1's Pets, seems to me to be coincidental as Vacation has more in common with the previously released Hot Date EP, while Unleashed seems to already point to Makin' Magic.

And I also cannot find very much back-to-back between Pets and Seasons in TS3 either other than that cats, dogs and horses get wet when it's raining, just like all sims, and get startled when lightning strikes. There's more back-to-back between SN and SEAS, in spite of two different studios being involved.
Besides, wasn't it Pets where a large portion of development was given to an outside studio?

TL;DR: I don't think that there's any pattern that allows you to predict the succession of EP themes.

Holds for Sims 2, though. Pets immediately preceded Seasons.

The only connection was making is that weather and pets were released on after the other. It's not so much a prediction as it is giving evidence about what may follow since that's the usual format. EA can do whatever they want and anything could happen, but if you asked me to make a guess about what pack would be next, I'd say Season, given the reasons above. I doubt EA has a hard and fast rule, I don't work there. It could be coincidence, idfk.

Wait what?! Well now I'm really glad I didn't buy Cats and Dogs...

And you know, stopped playing completely

I do wonder If many or some (significant) group of simmers will stop collecting after Seasons gets released, as It we"ould feel for that as If TS4 is "complet. If so, it would be a good reason for EA to keep releasing pointless expansion pack on the way before ending it all with Seasons, because let's be real: there cannot making compelling other than this-weather expansion pack (or let it be game packs If it does get split into multiple). I do hope volume speaks true and the sooner that pack or all of it's game pack arrives the quicker this catastrophy will end. And I don't expect TS5 to be any better and I rather not follow it.

TS1 Superstar was life. It was hard af. Everything celebrity after that was too easy=boring. Soooo... A TS4 Superstar on super easy mode? Please no....

horses - that brings back bad memories of a pretty heated thread here about someone wanting horses in the game...

trying to unremember it again..... LOL

I understand the idea of wanting horses in general. I like the animal. However I can come to terms with the reality that they're impossible. I just don't understand how people expect them to be implemented in a closed world. where would you ride them? Where would they run? It boggles my mind how people can actually be arguing for them.

Thinkin' 'bout a horse wanting to gallop the plains but it's stuck on a 30x30 lot getting hilariously fat until all of its legs cartoonishly snap under its enormous girth.

Or it runs off the lot and smashes into a fake backdrop! LOL

Trapped on some tiny lot, unable to leave, with only a random morbidly obese horse to socialise all the while living under the control of some evil AM-esque omnipotent being, and then finally escaping out of your low polygon hell prison only to fall through the ground into an endless blue hell.

As though they'd give us any 'control' over them

just google it, an employee confirmed it

EA's customer service isn't the most reliable source. Half the time they don't even know how to do their own jobs, let alone give accurate predictions on the progress of others people's jobs.

If it's true, hooray. That's better than waiting till November. But I wouldn't take that as an official confirmation. That's pretty much why half the articles relating to the matter have titles that end in a question mark.

I found this video about of animation from The Sims 4: Cats & Dogs.

Hmm, The Sims twitter released a small sneak peak for a trailer of a pack coming out tomorrow. Seasons maybe?

In parallel universe:

I'm pretty sure they're going with Months this time around instead of Seasons - first up is the October experience. The other 11 experiences will be sold separately.
