SIM 8.0

[Dylan Christensen]

Everyone is starting from scratch, with $100K?

I'd love that

The same people on 'top' now, would be again, if indeed we did start from scratch. I was only kidding.

Yeah i get that, it would still be nice

- A cool SIM theme song that plays whenever you log in, perhaps of the late 80s heavy metal variety so you know how much of a badass you are for playing with fake horses.

I’d love to hear Pantera sing me a song about fake horses when I logon

Late 2019 would be the beginning of SIM year 54. So, my guess is that we're not getting much in the way of updates when Year 53 starts in May.

So, she gets to torture us for a year and a half-ish. Fun.

“Wish list of new features in SIM 8.0:

- Pegasus Races, not in the context of the multi-million dollar races, but as in the fantasy creatures.
- More companion animals! Dogs, pigs, mini horses, crocodiles, humans?
- Introducing CAT SHOWS for the companion cats!
- A cool SIM theme song that plays whenever you log in, perhaps of the late 80s heavy metal variety so you know how much of a badass you are for playing with fake horses.
- You can use numbers and more punctuation in horse names, and horse name limits are now 40 characters! Have fun!
- The Steward launches a campaign for President of the United States
- Final Furlong compatibility: Use your own Final Furlong arcade game cabinet to take control of one of your horses for each set of results!
- And so much more!”

Brian, I truly laughed out loud! Can we please add donkey races?

[Danny Derby]

When will beta testing begin?

WE ARE SO BUSTED.

Love that! Especially the heavy metal-thing! And the horse-namnes.... Meatloaf-songs, here I come! *objectsintherearviewmirrormayappearcloserthantheyare*.

A theme song eh? Heavy metal? I'm so glad my sound is always OFF!

[Natasha Yar]

Oohhh excitement!

However

I’m disturbed by two things:
- the button doesn’t click (twitch)
- late 2019 is close enough to be a thing. How did we even get to 2019. I’m pretty sure we should still be back in 16 or 17. Slow the heck down, Time!

I try to click it every time I am on the home page! I NEED HINTS!

Very excited but one problem.
I keep automatically clicking on it every time I load the home page. I can’t stop myself; my brain just sends my finger right to it like it’s magnetically attracting it.

I’d like to think that one day the banner will go somewhere

You will have to wait for SIM 9.0 Flizan... 52 characters is still too long.

I wonder if the color scheme is going to change to match the button. I'd be all for that -- pretty close to matching my silks! Might be sort of hard on the eyes though....

I wondered the same thing! I’m also partial to purple

[Lori Hamill]

I'm thinking video conferencing will be a thing.

Yea giving up 10 real years of work seems super fun...

Right there with you Lou! I've worked 9 real years to get to where I am on this game, not the best by any means, but not the worse lol!
