Wow the new additions to the game sound so exciting.

Ice Sculpture hobby and also Aerobics Hobby!

But first, I'm so glad they finally fixed the lag.

In the text for the Magical Rainforest on the boat, it says it can be reached through "occasional Community Events"....I'm wondering if this is going to like the Simtown markets, popping up to open the different parts? I'd rather it was like the tropical romance island--a continual clean-up or whatever that opened up everything...I guess we'll see!

I'm not sure if this is new, but I don't remember having seen it like this in the previous version, so I'm gonna take it as a change unless otherwise indicated :mrgreen:

Doesn't the currencies and the buy button of the Market look different?

I have 8 new offers, 5 are listed as "new items of interest." One of those is for a pack that includes 5 dragons for $19.99. I already unlocked dragons, so I assume this is available for everyone, maybe even if you don't have them?

I fully expect this to be like the other community events where we can possibly open everything during this go-round. I think the wording is to imply that the events themselves will repeat like the Spa Event returned not that will get the magical rainforest in bits and pieces.

While I didn't experience the horrendous lag a lot of you guys did last update, I am having some in the home store now. I can tap on an item and move it just fine, but to put it in inventory takes twice as long a wait than it used to be. It's not horrible, but does slow down the designing process.

I'm worried the ice sculpture hobby will be limited time like the chocolatier hobby and it will just unlock last year's frozen themed items. Is it selfish to want all new items this update? :/

Not at all :lol: They seem to rerun at least one thing each update now, and I wouldn't put it past them to 'rebrand' the ice furniture as new items for the hobby.
Still, we'll at least get the hobby item that we can hopefully use for décor without it looking tacky (chocolate benches, Health Spa rocks, etc. look nice).

Yep I guess is not totally fixed but in my phone is back to normal (with a little lag due to being a low end phone).
