Hi there, I wanted to start a discussion on features the community would like to see in the Cozy Bundle or bugs the community has found and we can all make posts towards this on here if that’s ok! :)
I wanted to start off by saying that the controls, while working great, feel a little off for me as I’m left handed, and I think it would be a nice addition if we could get an option to swap the controls for the Left and Right Stick for those who would prefer that, and vice versa. :)
Can we get tank controls? Since we can already use the touch screen, I think it makes sense to move the character with the left stick, and rotate and zoom with the right stick.
Even as a right-hander, it feels SO awkward to have to move with the right stick and also use the buttons on the right for placing blocks. I feel like left stick controlling the cursor is standard in games for that reason, and I have no idea why they switched it around here. I would really like to see button mapping added, or at least the option to switch the control sticks for build mode.
I’m having a bug issue for TOBOR’s bulletin board AD task. TOBOR and Lyndsay are stuck and I’ve left the island, exited to Home Screen, and closed the game but they’re still stuck. I can’t progress due to this bug…
Lyndsay should teleport to the player and never be truly stuck. If that's happening with Lyndsay specifically we would love to get a video so we can get this entered as a bug.
Other NPCs can get stuck at any point along the journey to where they are headed next, not necessarily where the NPC is stopped/showing as stuck. You can try removing/moving things like conveyer belts, hedges, fences, etc. to see if it helps get them moving.
We're also working on a longer term solution, but in the meantime if you can try moving or deleting some things in the world that can help 😁
Definitely think for both games, more options for character customization. And I'm not talking about entirely new hairstyles or clothing, but for yourself in general. / 1) More skin tones are needed, only having three options is really limited, especially for those who have darker skin tones. Having a much wider range would be a great addition. I remember the DS versions having a much wider range of skin tones. / 2) Maybe a separation of eyes and their eye colors? It's not super important, but it would be nice to be able to have any of the eye shapes without having to worry about being locked to a specific color. Something similar or akin to the customization choices found in the DS version again, is what I'm referring to. Heck, you could take it a step further and basically copy the DS version, adding it onto this one. Allowing players to choose individual eye colors, shapes, hair, and color, and the ability to choose their own separate pants, separate shirts, and separate hats. While of course still allowing dresses and fullbody outfits. (Here's a link to a YouTube video explaining what I mean) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEfuAGaS_bw
/ 3) Color palettes. Again, more of a QOL change, but it would be nice to have an entire palette where we can see all the colors or sense patterns, rather than having to manually click every single time. And the original option doesn't need to be removed either. Maybe a specific combination of buttons or an option in the game settings could allow players to see all available colors or patterns.
Overall, it's a solid port of both though. Would love to see some more QOL features and updates, and of course, a MySims Agents port would be a dream, as would the other games like Racing or Skyheroes. (Also included a screenshot of the MySims DS customization screen in case anyone is unfamiliar with those versions.)
I noticed that the icons are a little low quality (Move in/Relocate/Move Out, there are some more) and could be spruced up a bit :)
I also noticed in Chef Gino’s place, his jukebox will continue to play music even when switching it off. I’m unsure if this also affects other objects like the TV, or DJ Booth.
With Mayor Rosalyn’s door, when exiting, you can get stuck for a brief bit before finally leaving, this didn’t happen on Wii and PC. :)
I also noticed as well, that Poppy’s “Make Bouquet” interaction when she’s performing it isn’t present and you can’t also make bouquets with her, I tested this on PC and it seems it doesn’t happen there either, so maybe I’m completely wrong 😅
Another suggestion: could we be able to change what door we have on the inside of our player houses? It looks a little odd that we have the player house in the build mode looking different to the one we have when we’re indoors lol 😅
Regarding the controls, could we also have a different way of moving around interiors while decorating in MySims? Since to move around the interiors you have to edge scroll and it’s a little bit tedious, could we have a way of moving around indoors while decorating in the options menu? Like using the sticks or touch screen? :)
a legacy bug I’ve noticed is that you can continue scrolling to the right when choosing an essence to use while creating objects, here’s the Switch and PC versions side by side:
I also noticed some more bugs while playing:
a texture bug that isn’t present on PC in Chef Gino’s place:
PC is the second screenshot. :)
Also a random bug where Mayor Rosalyn somehow was standing on the teapot and tea cups 😂
Thank you! I also forgot to mention, while I was watching liss the lass’s stream yesterday, I noticed that it seems we can‘t choose to move townies into the lots in the Garden, I’d love to have more lots for more Sims, and It would be nice if we had the option to either move in Sims into the Garden or instead just build a house for ourselves! :)
With that as well, I think it would be nice to be able to invite Sims to other places, like invite Poppy to Violet’s home or things like that, and that would include the houses in the Gardens too! :)
1.Definitely needs more than 3 skin tones. 2. We also need a settings option that allows you to change any of the controls. 3. Any reference to the ds game (maybe mentions/ relationships between the characters now and the ds characters) would make us ds players feel seen. 4. the building textures really need work and there needs to be more aside from the essences that just have solid colors or patterns (more wood colors etc.) 5. Door frame colors dont match window frames so i always have to go with white windows or a different door entirely. 6. similarly cant change eye colors without changing the eye shape entirely. if you’ve read this thank you so much. I loved this game growing up and I believe it can be amazing.
the duplication glitch still is glitching for me. i kicked out gordon yesterday and today i moved him back in and there were two of him. i tried again and he duplicated again. it happened with Ray, too. I thought this was fixed? it's still happening? I'm on the latest build of the game.
Could you let me know which game version you have on your Switch? You can find this by placing the cursor on the MySims tile on the home screen and pressing the + button. Should be at the top of the next screen.
