💡 Ideas > THINGS we want to see in The Sims 4 !!!

Remove the cart button. That's my main wanted feature right now.

I would like to see lots for mermaids in the ocean! It could be so much cool for them to live in the ocean were they come from! Have furniture there rather than an empty oecean. It would also expand our mermaid world, which right now honestly dont have much content!

Festive craft : Balloon art (balloon animals)

Face painting would be a fun festive craft for characters with painting skill.

Charisma would be helpful too, because part of the job is the craft (balloon animals, face painting, slight of hand) and part of the job is entertaining people with the craft.

Greedy sims would love this trait!

📸 Scandal reporter

I think Paparazzi are too passive, I would like journalists have the power to influence the public opinion ( Reputation and Fame ) :

• Write articles about somebody's Secrets (EP15 For Rent) : Turn it into something positive or negative
• Interview people to get information about somebody
• Collect gossip
• Take compromising photos (Politician taking bribe, married celebrity cheating, ... )
• Break-in and hide spying devices

The public would trust journalists with a pristine reputation but could ignore journalists with an atrocious reputation.

Journalists obtain reputation points and higher pay for their published articles but negative articles would make more money.

an other thing I don't understand why they don't do it, and the Sims community begging for since DECADES is Heterocromia!
I mean I understand that at this Point it's impossible to rework the Mesh of a Sim but we've seen that they are very capeble of creating overlays (and Modder also do this since YEARS).
The Sims gave us a weird shiny Skin Overlay NOBODY ever has ask for!
Why not creating a permanent Overlay for the Eyes with that you don't even give the Players the chance to finally get the one thing that is the most requetset for CAS since ever, you also could do some fun effects like changing the shape of the catchlights (how fun would an Alien or a Fairy be with litte stars as the catchlight in the eyes or some sparkleeffects)
an other thing you could do with an overlay for the eyes is implementing blinded Eyes, we have the Scars that goes across the eye, give us the chance to also Blind that eye as well, or the chance to give Sims some form of cataracts etc. 

You could so SO much with an Overlay category for the Eyes, and it is requestet SO MUCH, so what stop you from doing this Sims Team?

I'm new to the game, and I haven't read all 400+ replies to this thread, but here are a few things I'd like to see:

I'd like the concept of "work clothes" to be supported. And I don't mean "career clothes" like a chef's jacket or a top-tier musician's tux/gown. I mean, if a character is wearing formal/party clothes and starts doing something like gardening or repairing the toilet, then the character should automatically change into "work clothes", the same way that they automatically change into "athletic clothes" when they go jogging or when they work out, or the way they automatically change into "swim clothes" when they get in a hot tub or pool.

I'd like to be able to adjust the height of characters. I've seen mods that do this, but the animations start looking weird. For example, when cooking, shorter characters hold knives/pans below the work surface, and taller characters hold knives/pans above the work surface.

I'd like to be able to adjust a character's appearance when wearing "career clothes". I understand that they have to wear the clothing dictated by the career, but a chef with long hair could wear it up when going to work, and a top-tier musician might wear a more formal hairstyle for work (to match the tux/gown).

📺 Small Business : Locked TV channel

The players could lock the TV channel including DJ booth effect so nobody could change the channel or turn off the TV. 

And Maxis could also do city giant screens similar to the speakers playing in loop one radio station.

💵 Money Lover trait

A trait for Landgraab family, this sim :

• Looks for high income
• Likes to spend money in investment funds and stocks
• Share or not money with their family and friends
• Is good at making money with businesses
• Has no moral. Any method is good to get money even if it means stealing or blackmailing loved ones, this sim never feels sorry for these actions.
• Can't trust other Money Lover sims.
• Prefers to be alone in the household but it's okay when these sims are additional sources of income.
• Likes to have roommates who will pay the bills
• Likes free services
• Likes sims who gift money or buy their friendship.
