New Update Coming & The Sims 3 Create a World Tool (A.K.A Trouble Alert?)
Druscylla:
Several places mentioned Dec 10 as release date, but I won't squabble over semantics since it's likely the Facebook page may be where they all got it.
The in-game shop feature isn't that weird - a lot of games now have the ability for you to buy things once you are playing. I also play Dragon Age Origins, also produced by EA. It has an in-game area to buy things. The reason I mention it is because I am concerned about shared files. We all have shared store files and they work fine post-compression. But there are files in Dragon Age that actually seem to phone home. The game will verify that you actually are supposed to have the DLC you have installed. I don't know if this is another "feature" of this in game Store, but I do wonder.
Harumph:
I was excited about CAW until I caught this thread. I had no idea the in-game store thing was going to be linked to CAW. EA can kiss my ass. I'm not touching CAW until I read here that it's been made safe and phone-home-proof.

Oh god...
C-A-W = create-a-wah
End users will baw at the horrendous errors and ea store bugs while modders everywhere will need to work double time to develop even more fixes and mods to fix new world errors. In other words, the game will be even buggier than before (props to EA for working the impossible) and they willl continue to find sleazy money making schemes that do nothing but ruin what's left of their image.
Frankly EA should get their heads out of their asses and fix their stupid game, remove the dumb downloader that doesn't even WORK before introducing more crap and spyware that will do nothing but ruin the sims line for good.

Introducing - Shop Mode! You heard right folks. The December update will introduce a button that will allow you to shop from The Sims 3 Store from inside your game.
Wow, whoever wrote this almost made that sound like a good thing. I'm unsure if I should praise his/her talent for euphemisms or wish him/her to suffocate on something. Well, probably the former ... then the latter.
LOL!!! It makes me think of a frozen dinner I got once that said in very large letters on the package "ONLY 700mg OF SODIUM!!! Obviously this is a huge amount of salt for a single meal, but they were marketing it as if being loading with salt is a good thing. EA is employing the same tactic, apparently. I don't want the retarded Shop Mode, either. It sounds awful. It sounds like it will cause more problems.

True. But I bet it's the Shop Mode that delayed the release of CAW.
I don't really believe it exists. Notice how they've been posting fake screenshots of it, yet there's no such thing? It's a big fake, I say.
