Add Your Pack Ideas that are not on The Sims 4's Radar
It's a well known fact that the Sims community continues to beg EA for University, Farming, Cars, Elders & Tweens, and Spiral Stairs. But what are some off-the-radar pack ideas?
My ideas/examples:
Secondhand StuffFinally, your sim's home can be off-taste AND without being mismatched. This stuff pack provides gaudy decor and fashion DON'Ts from bygone days.
Murder Mystery Party StuffYeah, offing a sim would, I guess, be too dark. But what if your sim threw a party and pretended to get offed? Search for clues in creepy antiques to solve this "murder" on a dark and stormy night (storm SFX)
Super Heroes GPTake your sims up up and away, blah blah blah marketing. Super powers, Secret Identities, Llama Caves
Netherworlds GPWhere do sim ghosts go after you release them to the netherworld? Open a portal to the Netherworld and let Virgil be your guide
Midlife Crisis StuffThat awkward stage between adult and elder has just gotten a lot...crisisier
Gambling Pack - Come to think of it, maybe gambling could be the draw for Midlife Crisis stuff, lol
Multi-Unit Complex PackApartments? Those are so 2016. Introducing the new lot type: Multi-Unit Complex. Build your own and move in today!
Feel free to ask me about my silly pack ideas, I would love to brainstorm. Please add your own ideas as well. I only ask that they are fairly simplistic conceptually (but feel free to elaborate) and have broader than niche appeal. Is there an aspect in the game currently that you believe could be explored more in an expansion/game/stuff pack? Please share :smile:
1. Spirit Realms of Heaven & Underworld with Light Angels vs Dark Angels as a gameplay pk. 2. Master Suite stuff with the Heart Shape Bed. 3. Zoo Animals as a gameplay pk. ( My Zelena sim needs some Monkey Pets.) 4. DC Universe & Marvel Superheroes full Expansion Pk. PLEASE!!!
> @ListentoToppDogg said: > @jadonbakes All of that would be nice. My desire is for the babies to actually feel like members of the family with lots of interactions and not just objects stuck in one room.
It's obvious. I don't know why they didn't do that in the first place.
Sims can form garage bands, basement bands, attic bands, and rock their neighbourhood.
Online, or using their phones, they can try to book a gig.
Once they start getting gigs, they can start to become famous... or infamous. If they're bad, they may be booed off the stage, if they're good, fans may throw flowers and lace underwear onto the stage.
Take a pic of your band, and use it to create merch: t-shirts, posters, cds. All of which can be sold from the merch table at gigs.
There are 5 levels your band can reach.
Level 1. The newbie band: garage bands, basement bands, attic bands. Friends who get together to jam
Level 2. Dive bar gig band: trying to get recognised, hoping to get signed. Have the ability to produce cds and t-shirts to sell at the band merch table
Level 3. Local music heros: able to get more gigs than just in dive bars, even get compensated... a little, barely enough to put fuel into the band van. Able to sell cds, tshirts and stickers at the band merch table, also able to sign merch, if fans request it.
Level 4. Who are those guys? touring band: can get gigs all over the place, but aren't yet well know. Likely to have flowers or lacy underwear thrown on stage by fans. Able to sell CDs, tshirts, stickers, and posters at the band merch table also able to sign merch, if fans request it. May get signed by label executive, or try to start own label.
Level 5. On the cover of a magazine!: Everyone knows who you are, can get gigs anywhere, including at big gig park. May be harassed by fans and paparazzi in the street. Likely to have flowers or lacy underwear thrown on stage by fans. Able to sell multiple CDs, tshirts, stickers, and posters at the band merch table also able to sign merch, if fans request it. Might signed to a label, might start their own label. If signed to a label, the label will dictate style and gigs, failure to comply may result in a loss of royalties.
Instruments DRUMS!!!! For making loud noises! How do you tell if the stage is level? The drool is coming out of both sides of the drummers mouth. Bass guitar, cos you're addicted to bass. Standing mini keyboard with attached microphone. Cos only a drummer sits around on stage, and sometimes singers want to play a tune. Saxophone, for when you want saxy music Tambourine, for singers to play, whether they be backup singers, or the guy at the front. Hurdy Gurdy, for the Hurdy Gurdy man who wants to wind everyone up!
Music styles: Rock New Wave/Darkwave Punk Metal Folk Rock Blues Glam Rock
New outfits, new hair styles, new makeup.
New venues: Dive bars Small gig park Big Gig Park
And the ability to put a small or medium stage in other venues.
Small stage: Barely big enough for a drum kit, and microphone, but you can squeeze in up to 2 other musicians
Medium stage: Can fit drums, singer, and up to 4 other musicians or back up singers.
Big Gig Stage Can fit drums, singer, and up to 6 other musicians or back up singers.
Rabid fans and paparazzi: The curse of fame.
Angry band instrument smashing! It's a thing. It's an expensive thing. Some bands even sign the debris, and sell it for charity.
We're Not Dead Yet! Pack for Elders https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/895668/were-not-dead-yet-pack-for-elders
- Generations Expansion Pack.

SP (things builder enthusiast had been crying for (various stairs, spiral staircase, stage tool, CAST, etc.), CFE cheat, perhaps CAW or TL respective pack) - Why the long face GP (new pet: horses, ranches, barns) - Danger Stranger EP/GP (new emotion: fair, less persistent more spooky ghost, relationship dramas mechanic, stronger relationship, burglars, zombie apocalypss, lethal illness /o GTW, ) - Medieval EP/GP/SP (to cater old decades, an option to turn off cellphones and could include two new gameplay obj: landline phone and newspaper) - Wicked Romance GP (provides TS2/TS3 reminiscent activities, objects (heart-bed, hot-tub, etc), and interactions that don't make adults kiss like shy toddlers) - Sims are Real EP/GP (dunno what BB would entail, but: turn on-offs, gender preference, zodiac signs (aesthetic), phobia choice, Fears alongside Whims, TS2-TS1 Interests, music/food/color favorites, etc.) - Off the Grid For Real Now EP/GP.

a GP for sim children, having 2 worlds like RoM one "normal" world with a portal (an ACTUAL rabbit hole) only children could enter and go to Wonderland, maybe adding a new aspiration for children to become the hero of wonderland, not so much storydriven like Strangerville but more explorational, there will be wonderland creatures arround, flamingo/hedgehog cricket (new skill), an underwater theater, collections (maybe wonderland critters), livesize chess, floating furniture and other stuff inspired by Alice in Wonderland. New toys and objects in wonderlandstyle, the return of imaginary friends, new drawings for kids of wonderland things. Weird looking houses and BB objects, like curved windows and doors and so on.
I think it'd be really cool to have maybe a game pack that adds a bunch of other instruments like flutes, ukuleles, drums etc. This could also mean you could create a band and maybe perform at different venues for money.
High School Clique Stuff Pack: Tons of clique-specific items for your teens to dress in, featuring fingerless gloves, broken glasses, and new makeup styles. Have your teens join a clique (like clubs in Get Together) that they can climb the ranks in until they become the dungeon master, cheer captain, or the most infamous rebel!
Maybe a wealth\farming pack. tennis, horses, farm animals, etc. different horse options, such as hiring help or not. it would even be cool to be able to hire ranch hands. wealthy rancher anyone? (something fun to do with large lots, and they could add a Montana like world with a couple huge lots, bitterly cold winters, and cattle tending with horses or 4 wheelers). But you could totally also have a little farm with a couple chickens and an angry goat. This would also be a great time to update the game so animals and pets had their own cas, so we could have a lot more of them, instead of being limited by household size.
