I miss the beach, oh and sharks!

I must admit with seasons on the doorstep and the sunny weather out here on the coast...I'm missing the possibility to seeing some fins lurking in the waters of Sims 4....but alas we still have no ocean to swim in or beaches for our sims to tan on.

Although if they ever do add beaches and oceans to the game (in some format) with sharks (pls dont forget the sharks!) I hope they make a better encounter animation then the "fight" animation from the Sims 3...something more akin to jaws...

I can picture it now, the innocent sim just lazily swimming or treading water...maybe with friends chatting away, their legs just moving back and forth so inviting....then you spot it! The tail of a shark slowly closing in from behind.

You click your swim frantically, "swim away! swim away!" you shout.

Suddenly a sim gets pulled under; seconds pass, you hold your breath - nothing! Another splash and your sim springs up from the water, frantically splashing and spitting water from their mouth - EYES WIDE as they reach into their air.

The fin of the shark circles, will your sim turn and kick them on the nose ala cartoon style, scaring them away?!

Oooh look at the pretty shark shark jump out of the water! Aaannnd there goes poor Sim, swallowed whole!

I mean the game is rated teen...that would pass!

So I'll bring the bait if you bring the sharks Sims team!

    Aparently some variation of that works irl, or poking it in the eye, slapstick comedy style.
    I don't think I'd want to test either method. Gonna stay on dry land.
