Please Remaster The Urbz, Bustin' Out & Castaway
Hello EA Team, I just wanted to say that The Urbz is still my favorite Sims game of all time. I know I'm not the only fan who would love to see it return. A remaster or a re-release of The Urbz, The Sims: Bustin' Out, and The Sims 2: Castaway would make so many longtime fans happy. These games had a unique charm that still hasn't been replaced. Seeing the return of older games like MySims has given many of us hope that one day these classic console Sims games might come back too. Thank you for everything you do, and thank you for listening to your community. I really hope you'll consider bringing these classics back someday. ❤️
SIMS BUSTIN OUT
there should be a release of sims busting out for Xbox or the switch only or ps5 I would love this game I loved it so much on PlayStation 2 and I heard they can play on Xbox the first gen I was wondering if they can make it compatible for the Xbox one i would love to replay this time .
My perfect Sims 5
Over the past years the Sims has been around there have been concepts that Maxis & EA have gotten right and instances they got it very, very wrong. So this post is about examples of things I would love from past iterations of the Sims (and a few ideas for improvements) to be in the Sims 5. I had to separate and add in the comments suggested Gardening plants as well as Cooking & Baking recipes. I have also added things id like to see for sims 5 that aren't apart of any game so far. THIS IS A LONG MULTI-COMMENT POST. SCROLL THROUGH AND ADD YOUR COMMENTS & SUGGESTIONS. NOTE: I PLACED LISTS FOR COOKING, BAKING AND BEVERAGE RECIPE SUGGESTIONS BEHIND SPOILERS. I ALSO DID THIS FOR LISTS OF PLANTS & TATTOOS Table of Contents Section 1 - Things I loved about Past Packs Section 2 - Sims 5 Suggestions Overview Section 3 - CAS Section 4 - Skills, Chores, Butler Chores, Grade School through University Education & Careers Section 5 - Interactions Section 6 - Cooking, Canning, Candy Making & Compound Butter Section 7 - Beverages - The Basics, Juicing, Mixology & Nectar Making Section 8 - Baking Section 9 - Gardening, Harvestables, Flower Arranging and Landscaping Section 10 - Neighborhoods & Community Lots Section 11 - Build Section 12 - Buy - Full Room Categories Section 13 - Buy Items Section 14 - Seasons, Climate, Temperature, Lunar Cycle, Holidays & Special Events Section 15 - Occults - Vampires, Witches, Fortune Tellers & Familiars, Ghosts, Fairies, & Werewolves Section 16 - Pets - Cats, Dogs, Birds, Horses, Unicorns and NPC Animals Section 17 - Radio Stations, Potential Songs & Music in General Section 18 - Club, Team & Tattoo Icon Suggestions Section 19 - NPC's - Couldn't Enjoy the Game Without Them Section 20 - Item Upgrade Suggestions Section 21 - Travel & Adventures - World Zones to Explore - Part 1 Hotels, Reservation System & Amenities Basic Hotel Build & Buy Room Service & Menu Customization Amusement Parks Camping, Forested Mountain Region Casino Egypt Ski Chalet, Patterned after St. Moritz, Switzerland The Caribbean - Jamaica & Haiti The Islands - Hawaii & Polynesia China Japan Greece Section 20 - Travel & Adventures - World Zones to Explore - Part 2 France Italy Section 21 - Rabbit Holes VS Open Lots Section 22 - Moodlets & Lot Traits Sims 1 The whimsy The creative NPC's - especially the roving musician from the restaurant, the organ grinder guy with monkey, the saxophonist, the obsessed fan all of these NPC's had flavor and enhanced the areas they were in The Superstar neighborhood I liked its general feel. http://media.gamingexcellence.com/screenshots/the-sims-superstar/1508.jpg The Cake Dancer The Ice Cream Parlor & The Candy Store with all the associated Build/Buy pieces to make it work https://i.pinimg.com/originals/8b/86/33/8b863324cb5cba858b637a2c91822c94.jpg http://playmap.ru/uploads/posts/2016-10/1475516282_12.jpg Sims 2 The best details in terms of the Sim's involuntary actions (like shielding the eyes in bright sun). More small details like this would be great The memory system The Attraction System - Turn Ons, Turn Offs They can do basically the same ones http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/sims/images/8/8e/TurnOnsOffs.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20100223013105 The Western Zodiac https://sumukhastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/blogs-Banner-v214-Western-Astrology.jpg The cut scenes for huge life events The traits seemed to have more impact like messy Sims didn't make their beds Setting climates for each neighborhood so they made sense The had the best functioning hotels - TBH Island Living had a nice resort system too but it was so late in the game and would have been better than the hostels in WA. Hotel Desk, Locking Doors, Maid Service, Concierge activities, Room service, shuttle service Stable restaurants - Family could have job positions, plus the table interactions, the roving musician The Hair Salon Pet Jobs The Upright Piano for smaller homes. Love, Love, Love the grand pianos but some house builds require something smaller The Newspaper The Paperboy/Girl Births & Obits The Crossword Puzzle Engagement & Wedding Announcements The Horoscope The Chasing of paperboy/girl by dog Interests - Sims Child through Adult and dogs and Cats all had interests appropriate to them Bon Voyage - Camping area activities http://www.kritikanstvo.ru/games/s/sims2bonvoyage/images/sims2bonvoyage_pc_507503.jpg https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/sims/images/3/3e/Log_Rolling.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/350?cb=20100314110351 Bon Voyage - The Zen Garden Purchasing jewelry The Hobbies and their enthusiasm - can work with clubs but the enthusiasm was a nice touch Pet Store - Grooming Tub, Trainer, the actual store assets Parrots, Cockatoos - Training them and getting them to speak and giving them treats The cage for the smaller birds was the best the Sims has ever done The 3 universities instead of two Juicing The Carpool, the Bus for kids - you could even see the driver honking The garden judging for the garden club The Private schools - (different uniforms, types of schools and their bonuses) and the Headmaster scenario because a level of difficulty in order to get into private schools should be there. The witch alignments (neutral, good, bad, very good, Very evil) Retail experience was better, you could even see simoleans changing hands, the changing rooms, the generic radio stations, Car Lots - where you can purchase automobiles Sims 2 had the best weddings (only because Sims 4 messed up their wedding pack) and you could plan for a honeymoon that a Limousine took you to. http://davidchess.com/pictures/sims2_a/JaneS_Martin_limo.jpg Chess Tournaments those need a comeback The Jump Rope, Exercise Bike and Chin up Bar http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20131211021513/sims/es/images/thumb/2/27/LS2_Hobbies_32.jpg/500px-LS2_Hobbies_32.jpg https://i.ytimg.com/vi/W-6AsJind0Y/hqdefault.jpg The functional garage doors for gasp! garages and driveways The fabulous awning tool and the Wrought Iron and Glass Awning from Apartment Life Playing Marco Polo in the pool Tai-Chi and Mahjong http://www.gameguru.in/images/sims-2-bon-voyage-ss4.jpg Tea ceremony Sewing and Pottery Making https://static.miraheze.org/simswiki/thumb/7/7a/Hobby_Arts_and_Crafts.jpg/670px-Hobby_Arts_and_Crafts.jpg http://www.4gamer.net/games/046/G004615/SS/004.jpg Trimming bushes, pulling weeds - The Gardener had more to do Writing Books - The process was far more clever where you could pick amongst thought bubbles and sort of figure out what the book was about Bird watching from Free Time https://s.getwinpcsoft.com/screenshots/10/10006_1.png The Yo-Yo & Juggling https://static.taigame.org/image/screenshot/201304/the-sims-2-freetime-15.jpg The Lemonade stand https://static.miraheze.org/simswiki/a/aa/TS2OFB_Gallery_29.jpg The Skunk, The Raccoon and most importantly the Alpha Wolf The different greetings for the different social groups Tuning Instruments Winding the grandfather clock and it chimes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRCpMGiWzVY&t=13s The food contests http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/21400000/TS2-FreeTime-the-sims-2-freetime-21459082-500-383.jpg The Putting green http://www.igropoisk.com/files/screen/6106/1.jpg The Elevator Build pieces http://thumbs.modthesims2.com/img/3/0/2/5/7/2/MTS_Yogi-Tea-1263144-3-playtest.jpg Being able to see and change the style of ceilings Sims 3 Open World Color Wheel - and more channels to choose for color and patterns https://graf1x.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/color-wheel-poster.jpg CAS Hair color being divided by root, shaft and ends Create a Pattern The Gorgeous neighborhoods - the detail work and variety of the neighborhoods was the best its been in Sims 3 Cemeteries Weather, Temperature and Seasons - Only better than Sims 4 because it has Fog, Hail and Deep Snow The Moon Cycle The Town Center where the Seasonal festivals were held. They were better than all the fairs Sims 4 had Generations & Supernatural almost everything was perfect.

The Office Building, The Hospital, The interior of the Equestrian center but not the obstacle course, The Fortune Teller's Caravan ((I loved the music), The Science Lab and Observatory, the police station, The movie theatre but not the lobby The Mermaids were better in terms of playability based on all the cool dive spots and the hidden island Firefighters and the firehouse Police, Burglars, Burglar alarms Being able to swim in almost all bodies of water Skating on frozen lake Scuba Diving including deep diving. Sims 4 cheaped out on this to their shame. https://www.simsnieuws.nl/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/SNReviewEEduiken15.jpg The Deer - Would be a great come back for forested area along with the wolves.

I even love the Bleh! Seriously if they had the cape thing Bela Lugosi did I'd love it all the more. I would have loved it if they had brought back the Vampire specific Eclipsing Fog from Sims 3 but I would have had that fog protect the vampires in daylight. https://images.sftcdn.net/images/t_app-cover-l,f_auto/p/b17aa0d4-99eb-11e6-8ee3-00163ed833e7/47541037/the-sims-3-seasons-screenshot.png The Veterinary Clinic - Illnesses and injuries Holidays, Event Planning, Holiday Traditions all were fabulous - Do that again Loved the clubs those were great The variety of fairs and cultural festivals - Sims 3 did the seasonal festivals better by far but variety is the spice of life and exploring other cultures is quite fun. The food selections were good and adding them to the potential restaurant menus was a good idea Separating Cooking from Baking - Baking should have been a base game skill. The Restaurant Menu - this was a nice touch. It just needed to be tweaked so courses came out properly. Being able to add to the menu and setting it to create restaurants with different cuisine is always the right thing. Lot Traits - I hope in future they have strong impacts for lots this can help make visiting different lots more unique. Hats separate from hair The Voice Modulation Spa Day was great - Everything about it was fabulous ESPECIALLY after you added Manicures and Pedicures. https://simsvip.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/18706277654_7ab4a4fdcc_o.png Setting the holiday decorations for the outside with the little decoration box Setting the phones ring tone Trimming the Tree The multiple outfits one can plan in the different types of clothing The Pipe Organ.

hello simmers , iris Ramsay here I've never done this before, but I'm seeing all this news and chatter about EA remastering the sims .and I'm sort of bothered about it..I'm 57 years young, and I've been playing the Sims since day one ..really big on it in my household.. So after 24 years and thousands of dollars I have spent on the Sims ..you mean to tell that they are going make it better and make simmers pay for it..that's not right nor is it fair..I mean after all the issues and list of problems that we let slip by because we love the Sims.. Why can't they remaster it for all of us..Plumrobert’s Highly Official Guide to The Sims Discord
Plumrobert’s Highly Official Guide to The Sims Discord Editor’s Note: The Sims news team received the following article in an email with this subject line: “The Next Post for My Personal Blog.” We didn’t ask questions. Hello. I'm Plumrobert. This is a dashingly handsome picture of me: As my name suggests, I resemble a Plumbob (you know, the green diamond from The Sims), but with much better looks. And a winning personality. Welcome to my personal blog. Some people are insisting this is still The Sims News. I don't really see the difference. Anyway, while they're distracted, I thought I'd tell you about my favorite place on the internet: The Sims Discord. It's full of builders, storytellers, Create a Sim perfectionists, and people who make suspiciously specific life choices for their Sims. If you haven't joined us on Discord yet, you should. Just... don't mention I sent you. I'm seeing how long I can get away with writing here. Here's the important part: There's always something happening. Weekly Challenges. Chances to win prizes. Big community events with daily activities. We'll get to all of it, but naturally, we're starting with my specialty.

Hi everyone, I play more than one Sims game, and my mods ended up scattered across four folders with four different ways of doing things. Every mod manager I tried only handled a single game, usually Sims 4. That is why I built my own instead of using an existing one: I wanted all my mods for all four games centralized in one place. The Sims Mod Manager is a free desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux. What it does right now: One library for The Sims 1, 2, 3 and 4, and the UI re-themes itself to match whichever game you are managing (it even plays the classic Sims 1 UI sounds) Finds your mods folders automatically, including localized folder names and Ultimate Collection installs One click enable and disable, nothing is ever deleted Reads .package files to show real thumbnails and a content breakdown instead of a plain file list Warns about conflicts when two enabled mods share a file name If a game has no mods folder yet, it creates one with the framework files the game needs, like the Sims 3 Resource.cfg It is an early version, so expect some rough edges. I would love feedback, bug reports and feature ideas. Down the line I want to add The Sims Medieval, the SimCity games and maybe even inZOI and Paralives.

My husband recently **bleep** with all my EA files because he wanted space on the C drive. He uninstalled EA and all saves and sims 3. He knew Medievalnis my fave so he didnt uninstall not realising he **bleep** my game. He reinstalled the save files when he realised I lost all my achievments but since then when I try and start a new ambition and world it tells me I have to make TWO sims to start and Im stuck looking at the castle. I can only make a monarch and knight but omce I do it says I still need to make one sim to start playing, but there is no other options and I cant scroll around. Ive repaired the game in the app twice and its still happening. I dont know whats going on.
Is there any way to get a digital copy of the Sims Medieval?
It was one of my favorite games back when I had a PC that ran games and had the disk for it, but I cant find any way to get an official digital copy online and my new PC doesn't have a disk reader because for some reason it is no longer a thing they are adding to computers as a standard.
My Hopes For Project X
Most likely too late, won't happen, but here it is for prosperity. My hopes for Project X: Leveraging the Best of The Sims Franchise With the life simulation genre entering a new era of intense competition, EA and Maxis have a unique, powerful advantage that no competitor can match: 26 years of rich history, deep lore, and beloved mechanics. Instead of moving toward mobile-first architectures or fragmented platforms, the core player base is looking for a definitive, high-fidelity single-player experience. To successfully counter upcoming competitors, Project X should be a spiritual reboot that unifies the "Holy Grail" elements from the franchise's history into one cohesive masterpiece. Here are my hopes for the next-generation evolution of The Sims: The Core Character Depth & Gameplay of The Sims 2 The Sims 2 remains the absolute high-water mark for the franchise’s soul, quirkiness, and consequence. Narrative & Lore: Bring back the iconic, pre-baked drama and mystery. Launching with reimagined classic neighborhoods like Pleasantview, Strangetown, and Veronaville gives the game immediate emotional stakes and a narrative hook. The High-Stakes Aspiration System: Reinstate a meaningful "Wants and Fears" framework where actions have consequences, and failing a Sim's core aspirations introduces genuine game-play (like the classic, memorable psychological breakdowns). And let's not forget memories. Attention to Detail: Prioritize the micro-animations that made Sims feel alive—opening drawers for utensils, distinct bed-making animations, and deeply expressive physical interactions (like cuddling in bed or dramatic fights). The Living, Seamless Ecosystem of The Sims 3 Semi-Open Neighborhood: Utilize modern, optimized technology to bring back a seamless open world, avoiding the performance pitfalls of the past. Organic Neighborhood Drama: Eliminating loading screens between active lots allows the community to interact in real-time. Players should be able to look out their Sim's window and organically witness neighborhood storytelling unfolding across the street. Color Wheel Customization. Which will most likely appear in Project. The Upgraded, High-Fidelity Aesthetic of The Sims 4 Stylized Longevity over Photorealism: The Sims 4’s art direction ages gracefully and avoids the "uncanny valley" and heavy hardware requirements of photorealistic competitors. Modernized Visual Assets: Take that expressive, stylized art direction and radically upgrade it. We want to see significantly higher polygon counts on character meshes, advanced modern lighting, and high-resolution, Physically Based Rendering (PBR) textures. Visual Atmosphere: Imagine the dusty, heat-warped air and crisp night skyboxes of a modern Strangetown, or the high-fidelity, contrasting Tudor and Renaissance architecture dividing Veronaville.
