If they add cars (driving skill)

That could work. Maybe a five level skill like bowling, but with some added perks. And maybe the potential when going from lot to another lot there would be chances of wrecks or tickets, depending on their skill.

I agree that driving as a skill for all ages would be cool. some adults might be perfect drivers, while others could have a higher risk. But - even if my sims had a driving skill - and a car - I don't quite see where they should drive...

The game doesn't look suitable for cars. I suppose they could make a 64x64 lot as a racing circuit maybe? I'd definitely want tractors if we got a Farming expansion or game and they went on a track in Sims 3. (if I remember rightly).

Why are people saying cars are not suitable while we have boats in island living? #confused

Cars would be so much fun! And it would be cool, if we could put some dents into a few cars. Like when when they a chance card, if they fail their car could get a little dent

That would be nice.

Cars would be fun, but I'm not holding out hope for them. It's the one thing I miss in TS3, especially the cars from Fresh Prince Creations. My Sim had an Audi TT roadster for good weather, and a truck for when it rained.

TS2 was a closed world and cars worked fine, so I dont think TS4's closed world (which is much more open than TS2 was) would be an issue.

When going for a drive we could see them start the car and drive off, and then the loading screen could be some sort of animated video clip showing a bit of the drive - if poor driving skills car could do some less steady maneuvers and there could be some random small situations depending on skill level, mood and needs (poor driving skill, angry and sleepy... might be fun to watch!). It shouldn't be that hard showing our sims' heads in the car window. The landscape/road/street/avenue/weather/season/daylight etc should of course be accurate, if they drive between two lots in Oasis Springs, I'd like to see the Oasis Springs landscape and not San Myshuno streets. Then after loading screen/video clip ends, we'll see them park and get out of the car. Quality of the ride could even give a moodlet.

Perhaps there could be an option whether we wanted to watch a longer video, or just as short as possible. I guess it would be fun the first 10 times, but from there not being as interesting unless the situation is particularly interesting. Or, unless they make these video clips kinda mini games where we (as the driving sim) could affect the driving somehow. Adding taxis could give even more variation, as we could not affect the driving.

Hm, I'm warming up...

Would be fun , but im okay with out :)
