Re: Functional Cars
@TheSims4Player29nobody knows. 🤔 Without an open world there isn't a reason for cars, and it was already stated that TS4 will not be getting an open world. It has an entirely different engine than TS3 did. And TS4 doesn't have an open world because the open world in TS3 caused the game to run incredibly slowly, often grinding to a complete halt on many people's computers! 😠😢 To avoid this Maxis gave us semi-open worlds. 🙂 And some neighborhoods in TS4 (like Forgotten Hollow from the Vampires GP) don't even have proper roads anyway.
We still could get cars like we had in TS2 (which had a completely closed world). But in TS2, your Sims would just get in their cars and pull out of the driveway and then disappear into a loading screen. This probably isn't what you want, but if TS4 ever gets cars, this is how it will be! 🤨 Its the price we pay for having the game run 😃
Some Sim Gurus did state that the brooms in Realm of Magic will be able to be flown just about everywhere.🙂 But if you fly out of the little section of neighborhood that is open to your Sim, it will end up being like the cars in TS2. You still are going to have loading screens. 😉
