We need a Blank State option when starting a new save.
Hello TheSimsDirect & Maxis 😊 I'm not sure how difficult this would be for you to impliment into The Sims 4 but I think it would be a really great options if you could allow us Simmers to start a "blank state" save. What I mean by this is that all of the worlds have all lots completely empty and all of the appropriate Sims are absent. I would assume that the saves would still need to keep the NPC Sims such as Father Winter, Creature Keeper ect, but for non important Sims it would be great for them to be absent. I feel like this would be a much welcome quality of life addition to the game for Simmers who like to rebuild worlds from the ground up and do not wish to go through each world manually.28Views1like4CommentsIdeas for future The Sims 4 Packs
Hello Sims Team, I have some ideas for future expansions or updates that could bring more everyday life, hobbies, and family gameplay to The Sims 4. Ballet A new skill for children, teenagers, and adults. A dance school with lessons, performances, and competitions. New clothing like ballet shoes, training outfits, and costumes. Budgerigars Small pets with different colors. Cages or aviaries, free flying around the house, and interactions like taming them and teaching tricks. Boarding Schools like in The Sims 3 Different types of boarding schools, such as art, music, sports, or ballet schools. Teen Sims could learn new skills there and make new friends. Strollers Babies and toddlers could be taken for walks in strollers. More family interactions like walks in the park or babies falling asleep in the stroller. Bands and new music options Create your own bands. Practice together and perform concerts. A playable drum set and more instruments. More everyday life Sims could make their beds and have more household activities. Hammocks A new way for Sims to relax, read, or sleep in the garden or while on vacation. Sewing Machine A new sewing skill. Sims could create their own clothes, decorations, or other items. I would love to see some of these ideas added to The Sims 4 in the future. They would bring more creativity, family gameplay, and realistic everyday moments into the game. Thank you for your work on The Sims!6Views0likes0Comments💡 Ideas > 🏙️ Big city world #2

The keyboard in the Music Den Kit looks and sounds like a digital piano rather than a keyboard, especially since it has pedals and the options are the same as the acoustic pianos. The keyboard from City Living has a different sound and gameplay options. Naming the Music Den Kit Keyboard a Digital Piano will better reflect what the object actually is and avoid confusion. I think it's an interesting design choice to have a digital piano in this kit since it's about music and there's not a digital piano in game already.24Views1like1CommentBike riding update
I think that we had bicycles for a long time but we don't have specific cycling cothes to wear and play with so now tha bicycles are a base game thing i think we should have cycling appropriate clothes for the base game too. And if they were designed well we could even use some of the pieces outside of a athletic look, giving us more freedom and customization to stylize sims. aseball style of the first clothes and think it should be a base for masculine and feminine top swatches. Alsk the yellow cap is awrsome and coukd also be used to swimming, and the down-left top is pretty versatile so we could use it with any clothes too. Also i think that, if we have bicycles on our game, we should see townies or auto generates townies using them around our neighborhoods. This eould add much dynamism and depth to the daily life of the sims and neighborhoods. And finally as we already got a Bike with the Reaper Rewards event i think we should already have a base game universal bike for adults and kids because nit everyons was able to get this one throught the evenr. It could be the Grim one but without the decorations. This update could even be a way to try to put the bikes on the roads and maybe refine its animation flow too.16Views0likes0CommentsBody customization update
Can we be able to use muscles and fat sliders spearetedly on Base Game? Like only arms or torso? I think this would help to create more specific and unique bodies for sims and give us, players, more customization. The team could go with an easy way (arms, legs and torso) or a extended way (left/right upper/low arm, chest, abs, backs, etc.) (July 2026) I also wish we had a better cutomization of chest and abs like allowing us to have it on different styles to show body diversity: And finally an upgrade to the sims bodies being more anatomically accurate and much more realistic showing the proper muscles, bones, etc.thornwill14 hours agoSeasoned Ace70Views3likes1CommentSims4 Eras
We need different eras to play in. Like each decade from the 1900s, medieval, Industrial era. And more. I would love to be able to do a generations save thats actually in different eras. Rather than have people dressed for the 40s on a mobile phone. I think it should come up the way the seasons thing comes up. You choose an era then a season and play. And you should also be able to move to the next era mid game so that you dont literally have to wait 100 years to get to when you’d wanna be. Please it would be so great.🙏🙏🙏🙏75ui17 hours agoSeasoned Newcomer14Views3likes0CommentsModifications to the Romance Socials?
I really don't like how some of the socials under the romance category aren't compatible with furniture. For example, if your Sim uses the "hold hands" social, they will cancel any current sitting action instead of just multitasking like they would with a TV. Also, maybe things like your Sim's first kiss? Your Sim will automatically go back to having general conversation with their love interest like they're acquaintances which is kind of weird to watch but you do you, I guess.13Views0likes0CommentsDineout - I want to own AND chef my restaurant
Hi! I think you guys should add a feature in the Dine out pack where I can be the chef at my own restaurant. I got my character all maxed out on cooking and realized after I built my restaurant that I can't run it myself. Similar to the veterinarian clinic and retail stores! Pls pls pls update so my dream can come true!!Princessciji19 hours agoSeasoned Rookie12KViews13likes12CommentsLet us delete part of a modular item
This is a basic requirement and still none of the modular items allow it. I'm sick of building a shelf or a playground and wanting to remove a single piece, yet all of them or at least a few select at the same time and I can't select them individually. Especially when the modular system is so dodgy that things won't always snap together in the first place. A simple shift click should be easy enough to implement, just like the wall trims.spacemunkypantz21 hours agoSeasoned Vanguard23Views4likes1CommentIsland Living Swatches are so bad, why?
Why are the swatches in Island Living so bad in terms of lack of variety? It really feels like the objects from Island Living's Build & Buy are disconnected from anything else in the Build/Buy menu. I wonder if anyone else shares the same feeling. There's a lack of variety in the swatches as well, so much so that it's almost impossible to match alongside other objects from the base game and other packs. I think the objects from Island Living are really nice in terms of quality, but I'm just dissapointed with the swatches really.37Views2likes1CommentMake earthquake enable by default, just like rain/snow option in Settings
Neighborhood X: Household A: "Wow! An earthquake was happened!" (because I enabled it in lot challenge) Household B: "...What are you talking about???" ---- The current implementation is really doesn't make sense; when the earthquake happens, it should apply to all neighborhood or nearby town, depend on its severeness. Add the option to "Enable Earthquake", not as a per-lot option. This improves immersion and challenge.18Views1like1Comment
