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

Outdoor Retreat update (Inspired by Life Is Strange 2)

• Bad berries :  Urban sims know nothing about wild plants so they may eat bad berries if they aren't careful
• Hide and seek : Bushes could become perfect places to hide ... as long as it's not poisoned (itchy skin)
• Skip stones : Fishing isn't the only thing to do
• Play-fights against a tree
• Gather firewood : No more premade campfire in the inventory, the sims have to do it by themselves
• Howl at the full moon : Werewolves can do it so humans could do it for fun.
• Target practicing : Similar to dart game, throwing knifes on tree
• BONUS : Lot Trait for less tourists in Granite Falls, this forest should be away from civilization.

B&H isn't working properly for employees.

You can set up a crew and after a few shifts they dissappear and you have to re-employ them back as employees. 

For this reason all my B&H businesses are run by played households that I control and trust to get the job done. I stray away from NPC employment as much as I can.

🏭 Industrial Production

What I like in Tyler's game is the ability to assign tasks to NPC employees on objects.

• (Botanist) Gardening
• (Handler) Harvest vegetables > bring to Mixing table
• (Chemist) Mix it  > bring to Packaging table
• (Handler) Pack it and put the package on a specific shelf

In The Sims 4 the players can't tell to the NPC employees to harvest apples (gardener), cook pancakes with them (chef) and put them in the fridge or sell them.

A gameplay could be focused on the production process and sell the products to Restaurant, Retail or Small Business owners or by yourself (online shop).

These activities need a supply chain so NPC employees could be in charge of collecting the required resources  :

• Cooking
• Herbalism (Herbal Recipes)
• Floral arranging
• Robotics
• Juice fizzing
• Fabrication
• Gemology
• Nectar making
• Alchemy
• Apothecary
• If Scientist career
  • Invention
  • Serum

Since we already have rocket ships and Star Wars-themed costumes in the Sims 4, wouldn't it make sense to introduce a space station zone?

My wife and I are finishing up the Stargate series. (We're in the second season of SG Universe.) I was thinking that it could be fun to have settings similar to SG Atlantis or SG Universe. Or maybe something like Firefly/Serenity.

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.
