New City Location Coming To The Sims Social

It was back in February when our virtual Sim avatars were granted their wish of a second Littlehaven home and almost five months later to help cross promote EA and Playfish's new online Facebook game SimCity Social it seems we are getting a new one in the form of a City Penthouse location.

We are not 100% sure as to when this huge update will drop but we have been provided with information stating that it could come as soon as this Thursday in conjunction with a three week Lifestyle theme and furniture collection.

As with the Vacation Home expansion, the City Penthouse will come pre packed with Free furniture that will need to be built and even a Helicopter to help your Sim avatar travel from home to home in a matter of seconds courtesy of the pictured Helipad.

What are your initial thoughts on this new City Penthouse location? Will you be buying it and taking part in the rumoured three week celebration? Are three homes to maintain too much? Do you play SimCity Social? We'd love it for you to answer all of these questions via our usual channels of the Comment box below, Facebook, Twitter, Forum or Chat Room.

  5. I think It will become available soon anyway, it looks a very similar style to the unreleased items previewed the other day :) Bit of a strange location to become available tho, considering on the locations map there is a forest, fields and mountains. It looks great tho :D

  6. That's great! But I hope that they will give the option soon to expand land from your beach house. It does say 'coming soon'. Does anyone know if there are plans for that too?

  8. They need to release land expansion for the Beach House first.
    I'm all out of room to put stuff and have been for some time. Keep having to put stuff in storage to be able to keep up with all the new times quests.

  11. Wow, they need to up the energy allocation if we are having 3 homes. Also, I hope there won't be alot of trash to clear all the time. I can barely keep one house looking nice.

    1. Amen to that. I went on a RL vaca for a week, and when i returned my sim beach house lot was covered with driftwood and seaweed! Who can waste time and energy cleaning up when they keep bombarding us with quests and 3-stage item builds that take every ounce of energy and every waking moment to complete? They really should increase base energy with every level. Or at least every ten levels! I will be getting the city loft though. Some London theme items would be very welcome also!

  15. I've been playing SimCity since 2000. Infact It's how I got hooked on The Sims in the first place.

  17. Yea,I am excited about a new location:) but I would have LOVED a mountain locale instead.We already have a suburb home,then a beach house....not to mention all of the mountain terrain they show on the "locations" map:/ I designed my "main" home to look like a log cabin though,so I guess I'll be sticking with that until Sims makes a new retreat!

  18. I *TRY* to play SimsCitySocial every day. I get stuck at 80% every day. I've been to the forums, where, on June 25, there was a promise posted from someone that the developers were aware of and working on the problem. NOTHING SINCE! I'd sure like to play that game!

    About the three homes. I tend to stay at the beach house now, so with the new one, dependent upon how much room they give us (HINT: WE NEED MORE ROOM ON THE BEACH), I may just stay there. Who knows?

    1. The boxes are connected to the net unlockable parts - you will only be able to clear the boxes once they open up the rest of the houise for everyone. You can clear the boxes for the living room, kitchen and balcony on the 11th at 8:00 pm
