Routine System for Sims
I would like to propose a routine system for Sims, where we could schedule specific actions by day and time, such as going to the gym, going for a run, cooking, or visiting certain locations without having to control them directly. This would make the world feel more alive and realistic, as Sims could automatically follow their own routines while still engaging in random activities as usual. It would be a really fun improvement to the gameplay.CAS Organisation
Can whatever is selected in cas automatically go to the top of a section so you can easily see what is selected cause it’s hard to find a green box when you have so many items. Desentivises wanting to buy more Cas items cause it will only make the problem worse. Also can we have a Cas favourites box at the top of each section so we can find our most used items by favourite swatch. (Click like/heart then it will appear at the top) Can we get a career/ school uniform category too. And school uniforms for kids. Would be good if we could select which school a sim goes to e.g. make 3 schools per age group so they can be based in different countries / private vs state.Walk Styles
The walk styles have been the same for years. I don’t use mods. I feel like with all the new packs they could have added something. Especially with the new Royalty pack you would figure that would come with a new walk style or something specific to teens. Sounds dumb but I like to give my sims character and that includes a walk style.
The Sims 4 is imbalanced
Hi, The Sims 4 is probably the most imbalanced game of the franchise : Female sims over Male sims Chores/Work over Entertainment/Hobby Standard genders over Custom genders (Low quality CAS) English players (Pronoun) over Non-English players Lush worlds over Downtown/Desert/Beach/Mountain worlds North America over Europe/Asia/Africa/South America/Oceania Sunny day (Festival/Outdoor events) over Rainy/Snowy days Young Adult sims over Teen/Adult/Elder sims Houses (buy) over Apartments (rent) Everyday Life over Vacation/Adventure/Journey Cooking/Gardening skills over Video Gaming/Programming/Mischief/Comedy/Charisma/Logic skills Eco-friendly over Industrial Good over Evil (only Criminal career) Eternal Summer over Seasons (newer packs ignore Seasons EP)
No More Random Outfits for New Vampires
When a new Vampire is created, the game unnecessarily randomises all their Dark Form clothing. It invariably ends up giving us horrible combinations, that would make Nosferatu turn in his grave. But it is completely unnecessary. Proposed Solution: Copy paste the current existing outfits for every category, and only add or randomise the Vampire's teeth for their dark form. If we want to add more vampiric features, we can add those ourselves. A Vampire's turning moment comes with a very awesome animation, that gets completely ruined by the current system. Please change this, I'm sure nobody likes it the way it currently is set up.Turn on/off promotion school and work
I miss a way to turn on or off promotions so you can choose how far your sims will come in career. If you do not want them to reach the top of their career or only to level 3 or 5. Also for children and teens that you can turn off/on promotions so they can stay in the grade you wish for them and your stories. Lilly😊
The Sims 4 DLC Pricing Is Unfair for Brazilian Players
Owning the full The Sims 4 experience in Brazil currently costs nearly 8,000 BRL. That is not “expensive” — it is completely unrealistic. For many Brazilians, this represents around 4 to 5 months of salary. No normal person should have to spend half a year’s income just to access the full content of a life simulation game. What makes the situation even worse is the lack of cross-platform ownership. I already purchased DLCs on Steam, EA App, and Epic Games, yet none of them transfer to PS5. So if I want to play on another platform, I’m expected to rebuy the exact same expansions, game packs, and kits all over again for thousands more. That is beyond unreasonable. At this point, The Sims 4 no longer feels like a game people are meant to fully enjoy unless they are extremely wealthy. EA keeps releasing endless DLC while the total price becomes more and more disconnected from reality, especially for countries with weaker currencies like Brazil. Regional pricing barely helps when the final cost becomes this absurd. Many players have complained about this for years, yet nothing changes. Consumers should not feel punished for supporting a franchise across multiple platforms. There should be cross-platform ownership, loyalty discounts for existing players, or at the very least pricing that respects the economic reality of countries outside the US and Europe. Honestly, I hope these pricing practices are eventually reported to PROCON, Brazil’s consumer protection agency, because many Brazilian consumers would absolutely consider this abusive and inaccessible.Nicknames
Can we have the option to put multiple nicknames in cas then be able to choose which sims call who by that nickname. (Full government at the top then nicknames underneath) Then when phone calls come in it can be like “mama” calling cause no one saves their mama in their phone with her full government. Will just had a lil realism to it
Zombie Pack
What if they made game pack that was zombies? It could include tarnished clothing, junk jewelry, new skin details, apocalypse style building materials and furniture, etc. They could eat brains in a can, like the plasma bags for vampires. They could either harvest from other sims and make them zombies too or have a brain plant they can harvest from. They could have a whole skill tree of super strength, hungry less often, or even a boost in skill from eating brains from people with certain traits, or even a boost in the skill with the highest level of the sim they ate the brain from. They could have weaknesses as well, eating brains from other sims could make them more likely to zombie out and attack other sims, or super strength makes them hungrier more often. New jobs could be zombie hunter, containment officer, or medical researcher. They could become zombies from a virus from the research facility or disrespecting grim/gravestones. They could even have them have 2 forms - their disguise and their zombie form. Just a really cool idea that I thought about. Maybe someone good at making mods could do something like this. I know there is a few out there already, but I think I am wanting a "Friendlier" version for some game play ideas I have. I want the zombies to be more occult like and have a wider game play to them.
Gooseberry Pie but where are the Gooseberries?
We are getting a new recipe with this event as one of the later week rewards Gooseberry Pie and that is wonderful. I absolutely love new Recipes. My problem is there are no new harvestables along with this. Unless there was an announcement that I missed we have a recipe without its main ingredient. Seems like a missed opportunity for an additional event item. Anyhoo this is my suggestion give us a small update with Gooseberries to plant.Aspirations
Aspirations is lacking. Athletic: - Fitness Enthusiast, just to keep fit and healthy - Athlete - wants to become famous basketball player / footballer Creativity: - DJ , wants to become a DJ - rapper , wants to become a rapper Family: - wants to be stay at home parent - wants to build family legacy / generational wealth Fortune: - gold digger , wants to find a sugar daddy/ mama - CEO , wants to create successful businessHousehold relationships
Can we get more options for how a sim can be related when creating in cas cousin uncle/ auntie step dad/ biological dad / adopted dad half brother/sister grandmudda/ grandfather and can we get the option to edit relationships of sims in other households without having to put them into the same household first e.g. to make sims cousins you’ve gotta make sisters in one household , move one out then make the cousin. Which is long. Can we just edit it from the family tree and click add family relationship and see the full list of sims in the world like you do when you’re making an event.CAS
EYEBROWS We need the eyebrow opacity slider back (dunno if that was a mod but since update can’t find it) GRILLZ We need more grillz.. diamond, gold , silver BAGGY JEANS + SAGGING Just look through all the baggy jeans cc + with sagging (underwear showing underneath) we need that on console HOODIES We need more baggy hoodies and hoods up (covering head) .. just look at CC we need that on console JACKETS + ROBES Like the new underlays we now have we need to be able to overlay jackets over tops / full body outfits and robes over pjs TATTOOS We need to be able to get an image from our computer and be able to trace over it then stick it as a tattoo cause not all of us have artistic talent we just got the vision. SCHOOL UNIFORMS / WORK UNIFORM We need a category for work outfit / school uniform. BASKETBALL SHORTS We need more basketball shorts / baggy shorts BAGGY SWEATPANTS DURAGS More swatches.. and loc caps CAS BACKGROUND Option to change background in cas on console SLIDES More slides like Nike benassi UNDERWEAR UNDERLAY Option to put underwear underclothes so bra strap can be showing for cami’s / strappy tops for more realism.Traits
Can we get the option to add reward and bonus traits straight in cas cause doing the cheats for them is long can we get the option to add 5 / 7 traits cause we can’t on console cause you can’t mod it Here are some traits we need too: introvert / extrovert protective (over partner and kids, brothers) funny / comedian people pleaser FN / 304 (just enjoys sleeping around .. different from fear of commitment/ romantic) Real one (combine loyal; family orientated, bro, outgoing all in one + trust worthy) High maintenance (likes self grooming, needs gifts/ money, neat, perfectionate, likes compliments) teacher (good with kids + teens, outgoing , smart; charismatic, helpful, respected)
requests
to see which save we currently have loaded and maybe last loaded separate from last saved building - actual flat roofs? OR building - roofs or floors on top of half walls (for adding a slight extended wall with windows with flat roof) building - curved paths/better curved walls building - the ability to only lengthen the roof cover on one side thats all for now thank you : )
Sims 4 Autonomy Options
I'm playing the 100 baby challenge and I get frustrated when I choose to keep autonomy off so the sims don't make decisions while I'm trying to meet a goal in the challenge and they for example continue to pick up the baby to put them down while I am trying to get the infant to meet their milestones. If the no autonomy was actually true I wouldn't have to cancel unwanted movements when I'm playing.More Common Surgery/Injury Scars
Hi Sims Family! I've been playing Sims since 2001 and have never stopped. Every Christmas eve I continue my parents' tradition of giving me a new CD to download and get a new expansion pack. ANYWAYS. My partner, mother, and myself have gone through many surgeries that are very common. Laproscoptomies, back surgeries (saw another post advocating for spinal surgery scars) and heart surgeries. These scars would also include common athletic injuries, and maybe even those that are from self harm, pending ESRB rating. I'm so proud of The Sims for including a c-section and breast removal scars but then we have a dozen options for moles (again, appreciated!!!). Can't we have more representation of our trophies that prove we survived?!Cas features needed
HEIGHT can we get a height slider where we can set it by actual ft and you could choose the height where you choose the life stage and voice in cas. same with shoe size and hand size AGE/ birthday can we set the age of the sims so we can actually choose who is the older brother or if they twins NATIONALITY Choose the flag of a country where they’re born vs where they live + ethnicity. And a sims lore version where you can set it by neighbourhood Choose if they like being home in their neighbourhood or not… / get on with sims if they’re from their home neighbourhood/ sims with the same nationality / ethnicity. RELATIONSHIP ROLE dom/sub/vers TRAITS option to choose 5 traits and here are some traits we need: introvert / extrovert protective (over partner and kids, brothers) funny / comedian people pleaser FN / 304 (just enjoys sleeping around .. different from fear of commitment/ romantic) Real one (combine loyal; family orientated, bro, outgoing all in one + trust worthy) High maintenance (likes self grooming, needs gifts/ money, neat, perfectionate, likes compliments) teacher (good with kids + teens, outgoing , smart; charismatic, helpful, respected)
Plant placemect
I have been playing the game for years and absolutely love it and always love it more and more after every pack and update. the one thing that has bothered me and I've been waiting for more people to mention is TREES AND PLANTS GOING THROUGH WALLS. I cant be the only one who's tired of meticulously placing trees and picking the skinny ones to go by homes. it doesn't have to bend and fold against walls, i personally would be very happy with the branches and leaves completely cut off through the wall so you cant see it inside. I really hope this is an easy fix and you will be able to do it, landscaping is already hard enough. thank you for your time :) <3Time Travel Vacation : Ancient Life + Deities
Dear players, I need your honest opinions about this idea of expansion pack. Here my 5 questions : Would you be interested by a big world as a Vacation Destination (3 or 4 neighborhood) ? Would you like Travel Time in The Sims 4 ? Would you like a theme focused on Ancient Life (3500 BCE = Before Cordelia Era) ? Off-the-grid in a civilized society (no smartphone, no electricity, no water) Public fountains and aqueducts : Social hub to get neighborhood gossip Public baths (laundry and bathing) Town Crier to get the news (Mischief) Troll Divine Sim's stories or History Present Time (Home world) : Extra Content for Museum venue Clothing for Costume party What 3 themes would you pick between the item below ? Ancient Greece Ancient Egypt Persia Ancient China Maya India Druid/Celtic Proto-Germanic Occult are unpopular but would you be interested by Divine Sims ? Description of Divine Sims based on mythologies : Divine Influence : Like Social Media, Divine Sims need followers (believers) to get Divine Energy. In Enchanted By Nature Fairies use Emotion, Divine Sims would use Popularity. Gain believers by impressing, inspiring or scaring humans Oblivion : when nobody talks about them anymore, Divine Sims become humans Divine Drama : In Royalty & Legacy, Scandals are secrets to hide but here it's the opposite. Scandals are what makes Divine Sims relevant, more scandals means more people telling and singing about Divine Sims' stories. Powers : Good Powers like Resurrect People on demand (Miracles) Scandalous Powers like Temporarily Stealing Identity (Zeus drama) Evil Powers (Curses) Queen/King of gods with Royalty & Legacy Death Deity : Divine Sim + Reaper career (Life & Death) 4th Neighborhood : Realm of Gods
