Travel has been greatly improved in this game as well. If you want to see ghosts for example, stop by the cemetery at midnight, or if you happen to be at the park when others are there, you can join an impromptu picnic. The game is also stocked with fun additions that only appear if you are in the right place at the right time.
Socializing with friends is as easy as calling people from other neighborhoods and inviting them over.
Not only is traveling from one area to another more smooth, communication has also been made easier.
