These could easily be implemented in a free update. I'm sure if you look at my recent post history you will see my insane obsession with zombies, and how they can be implemented. I wish it was an option for them when begging Grim to bring back a loved one (like Sims 3 I think?), but you don't bribe him enough, or if there is a band pack that music played too loud can wake them up (like in queen of the d***** and how that wakes Lestat) :) Or in generations if there is a grim reaper career you could make zombies, and they can remember their families and even do some interactions that remind them of their famlies. I think they could just be a simple occult, like mermaids, not having too much special, other than a zombie walk, and being able to turn other sims into zombies, along with maybe some zombie specific CAS items, like clothes, skin tones, hair, sores, and scars, and teeth etc. I do like them being able to eat brains from the fridge, and still being able to bite sims, and this still makes it family friendly. Crosspack compatibility, Spellcasters can have a new spell or potion, one that goes wrong perhaps, or the science career can have a new serum that makes zombies or something? aside from werewolves, we have not had any new occults in an exapnsion in a very long time, so generations or the band pack would be great!Of course this feature can be switched off, or lowered to having zombies, but them not being able to turn sims into zombies. :)

I am not against zombies, but hopefully they will make them less intrusive than the ones in TS3. There were no dead sims buried in my sims back garden yet there were 10 zombies rising out of the ground and spoiling my plants.

I'm not a fan of zombies, and as above, I really hated the ones in Sims 3. I'd honestly rather have faeries, or a pack of magical creatures as pets.

I don't think zombie will do in a free update though. They have so much more potential than a free update! I think they deserve a game pack. They could do an apocalyptic fallout style zombie pack. I'm not too picky about how they should be presented as long as we get them and I can play out my survivors stories with real zombies. I know sims don't use weapons but it would be cool to have a way to fight them off. Maybe even something like the freeze ray we currently have. And ways sims can barricade themselves in from zombie break ins. Or hide from zombies. Would be the first time we have a survivor horror pack for the sims! And of course I wouldn't expect resident evil because this is the sims. But there is so much they can do with it sim style! Might be fun to play as one as well. I'm sure the team will come up with a way to keep zombies either confined to a world or turn them on and off so that it's versatile for people who don't want a constant zombie invasion. The team has done really well with occults so far.

They went through a phase where they built hotels and everyone was sure that hotels are coming. I think they just get inspired from one another.

I'd love zombies to have their own gamepack as well! And especially with how The Last Of Us and All Of Us Are Dead shows are really popular, I can't see the Sims Team not hopping on that pop culture bandwagon. They've always added tons of pop culture to the game ever since Sims 1.

Honestly, if they made a gamepack and made some different types of zombies that'd be pretty cool. Having the normal classic zombie, frankensteins, and an option for mushroom zombies would be pretty fun! :smiley:

I use the horror movie make up from Get Famous to make groups of zombies, then I use the club feature from Get Together to designate a zombie bar as their hangout and make one of the club activities attacking bystanders.

I strongly recommend that they get a toggle to completely turn off Zombies if they come into the game. I can just see it how they might have a cool new world, build mode objects & CAS.
As for Zombie play, I think the Motherplant Minions are enough.?

Zombies in the Sims 2 were the best! I never had the opportunity to see what they were like in the Sims 3.

If they bring them back, they need to bring back some of the hilarious interactions that we had in TS3. Put a stereo outside and you had a Thriller video in your front yard. The best was the fights with Charles the Evil Chicken. :D

I agree, whereas zombies add humor and gross factor, making simming feel a little less painfully pastel and babyish, frankly soms3 zombies were an intrusive pain in the neck that couldn't be turned off and I still find them 99% annoying rather than worth it. They should be like other occults: something you can manage so that if you don't like them, you don't have to deal with them.

I'm only in a zombie mood once in a whe and the rest of the time they are like having your neighborhood walk ruined by irresponsible dog owners who leave the neighborhood strewn with dog waffles to dodge. They, and people who double park (truck owners most often) have no idea how thin is the protection they enjoy from retribution, based on other's decency. Which only stretches so far before it snaps.

But zombies are a literal plague in sims3, and if they became an option in later games, they need to be an OPTION. They are beyond tiresome but only because they can't be turned off or managed and contained.

No other occult gets to be that intrusive and annoying, and this keeps the peace between simmers who want mayhem, and simmers who want Perfect People in Happy Valley. I like me some mayhem, and those zombies wear out their welcome fast.
