Wishing for another Newcrest

I really wish the sims team would release another Newcastle style world with lots of empty lots. We have so many lot types and large entertainment game play items... I'm running out of places to put things.
  • I would be in 7th Heaven if they ever gave us another empty world to make it our own! Preferably without all of the fake buildings!

    That has got to be one of my absolute biggest pet peeves about TS4 and why I CAN NOT LOVE IT like the other games.

    I absolutely HATE the restrictions imposed in TS4! EA's motto was always "Play with Life" ...... but I personally can not, because I don't want some swampy, Louisiana styled fake houses in Willow Creek, forcing me to make all of my houses/lots be of similar style.

    I don't want the ugly tudor styled fake lots in Windenburg forcing me to keep my lots in that same style to be cohesive.

    I don't want the ginormous dinosaur in Oasis Springs and the fake Spanish buildings between the lots I can build on.

    LET THE PLAYERS BE CREATIVE AND CREATE A WORLD THAT IS OUR OWN AND STOP MAKING US CONFORM TO YOUR VISION!!!!!!!

    And do NOT get me started on the fact we can't even build fully functional apartment buildings in other worlds!

    TS4 to me is such a restrictive, disappointing game for creative people like me, who enjoys creating aesthetically appealing worlds to tell MY stories in!

    It would be very nice if we got another free world. ? Something Greece inspired or maybe a Veronaville type world. ?

    I miss being able to place decorations in neighbourhoods like in Sims 2. You could add water towers, hot air balloons or helicopters!

    As much as I love the idea of a beautiful Greece inspired world I would really like just a generic no fake buildings world full of empty lots in various sizes that I can design how I want.
    World design is one of the things the sims team does really well. I think they are missing an opportunity by not selling world packs.
    My favorite thing about the Sims 3 was the world tool. I loved creating worlds. I wish we could get that back.
    And don't get me started on that random giant dinosaur in Oasis springs! Lol
  • Chicklet,

    I know! I don't like the fake houses in Get Famous because it looks so much like a neighborhood, and they are big lots, but then I feel like I have to use them as housing lots because of how everything looks. I would rather have used some of those for commercial lots, but again it wouldn't look right. So, I understand how you feel about this. I personally don't mind the Windenburg ones, but I guess I like that housing style, lol.
  • Yes I posted about wanting a blank world a few weeks ago, would love to see that!
