I don't see that happening as that would be viewed as animal cruelty. But what we could have is the option to trade chickens in for feathers to craft our arrows with.

That's true, I would not pluck a chicken in real life to make an arrow. It would have to be worded like that in the game, since technically we don't harvest chickens in the game, we trade them for meat too.

Birds changes their feathers naturally, like deers with their antlers. So, like eggs, chickens can left some different feathers randomly or while cleaning the coop.

Yes, that's a great idea! They can collect feathers from the chicken coop. :smile:

Great idea! I would definitely buy a pack like this. Even an Archery stuff pack where they can expand on it even more. As someone who does archery in real life (at my own home) it would be great to have this option in the game. I would much rather an Archery pack dedicated to archery than for archery to be included in a pack I may not be otherwise interested in.

if done in Sims4, it would have suction cups instead, and the arrows would land randomly with no scoring system, kind of like Sims4 chess being pieces that don't look like chesspieces and don't move in any semblance to a real game.

Sims3 or Sims 2? Real arrows, a choice of compound bows or non, scores that correlate to where on the target the arrow landed, the ability to do it competitively with others where someone wins, and in Sims2, inexperienced archers sometimes twang their forearm and it hurts!, and also don't hit the target as well, but get better with experience, plus have to walk to the target to retrieve arrows, to start again.

In Sims 4, they would start again as if by magic, all the arrows returned to the quiver instantly, no scoring, no winning, and no chance of hitting someone even if they walk right between the shooter and the target.

Archery in TS2? Where? I believe TS1 featured archery and TS2 axe throwing

I would love archery to be added. I like the idea of being able to craft the bow and arrow on the woodbench or new object. I think we should be able to pluck the chickens to make the arrow feathers

me to

If Cottage Living is installed, you could use some feathers.

Axe throwing coulf fit very well, but it could need some blacksmith...

Darts in Sims 4 has a scoring system. Where the dart lands on the dartboard correlates with the score the Sim gets. Since they've done it with darts they can do it with archery too. The issue with darts is that in competitions only one Sim gets a turn which is something they could fix to not repeat with archery. Archery competitions should have 2 Sims shooting the target at the same time.

The possibility for inexperienced archers to twang their forearm and it hurts would be good to have in The Sims 4. They could get an uncomfortable moodlet from it. Also it would be nice to have our Sims choose whether they wear an armguard or not and a selection of armguard to choose from as well as arrows and bows. Sims who wear an armguard could be happy they're wearing an armguard when they twang their forearm. Maybe they could get confident from it. It would be great to allow children to have a go. There could be child bows and arrows and children could automatically always wear an armguard when shooting to keep them safe. I think archery would be better as a stuff pack than a Kit.
