Sims 4 Online Server Multiplayer
The idea is to start a Sims server where people can join and live in the world the server owner creates. This would be the social part of Sims 4 that would let other sims connect to others online. ...

I still think that this would be a valid opinion and mode for Sims 4 or future Sims games. However the intense negativity and hostility I am getting from people on here is unnecessary. I respect your opinion but please do not lash out at me and start insulting the topic and others in the topic based on their thoughts or opinions.
Please keep in mind that nobody is forcing you to play such a mode and that my initial idea would sync Multiplayer DLC with singleplayer content and DLC.
Given that this thread is in the idea corner, I do think that the negativity regarding some form of online Sims is uncalled for. I believe that some people think that online means MMO style, and they didn't look in detail the ideas presented. Having that said, I understand why people tend to say no:
1. Sims 4 is rumored to be an online game called Olympus (is it a rumor?). The online version was scrapped and Sims 4 is remade into a single-player game.
2. MMO style is not compatible with rotational gameplay and probably CAW. While this is not what you are proposing, but still, making sims online shouldn't be just to make people login and play as a sim.
3. Some people just want a single-player Sims game. They want to create their own story and don't want other people to login and screw things up. I understand that you are proposing a server. If you don't allow people to login, it effectively becomes a single-player game, but still, these people won't be interested in such online capability.
4. cc and mod are problematic if the game is online.
5. It is probably too late for Sims 4 to make it online again (but who knows). Maybe it is better if the idea is talking about a future Sims game.
The idea of Sims Online is a thought on the screen now, all we can do now is trial and error ideas and logic with the games idea and hope for the best. I understand the points you have addressed, however the idea of Sims Online needs to be heavily refined in itself. As the community I feel it is up to us how good of a quality the next Sims game will be due to our feedback on the previous one.
