Re: The Sims™ 4 Music Expansion Pack

I had an idea for a band expansion or game pack

First I think that there should be new instruments like a drum kit, saxophone, trumpet, electric guitar, bass guitar, and harp.

There should need to be at least three people in the band and you can form your own band or work with an agency (similar to the acting career in the get famous expansion pack). I think that if you want to work for an agency you can audition to be in a band and you will have a higher chance of getting in the band the higher your instrument level is. I think that if you have the get famous expansion pack and your band is famous (even if its just a little bit) you would have a higher chance of working with an agency. If you want to if your band to join an agency you can by either the agencies asking (The agencies will only ask you to work for them if your band is famous, but it doesn't have to be by a lot) you on your phone or by doing a similar thing to the auditions. If you work for an agency before you have formed a band you would not be the leader because the band would be formed by the agency. The agencies will help your band get famous quicker (if you have the get famous expansion pack) they will also make your sims make more money per song.

I also think that you should be able to advertise a space for a band member, and you can specify what instrument they play and you can see their instrument skill level if they reply to the ad. You can choose to accept or deny people if they reply to the ad for members and you can have multiple people respond to the ad. There will also be a maximum amount of people in a band.

If you want to start a band you can be the band leader so you get to make the decisions on what the band does and who you want in it or you can make a band with no leader witch would be good if you worked with an agency.

There could also be a new world if it was an expansion pack that could have townies that already have a skill to play an instrument that way you can have townies for your band without needing to make them yourself. this expansion pack could be rock, metal or grunge themed but you should be able to pick the genre of your band when you make it. there could also already be a band or two in the world that you might be able to join if you dont want to make your own. There could be a hall in the world that you could hire to do band practices and people would bring there own instruments so you dont have to buy instrument for everyone.

The band would write the songs pretty much the same as you do currently in the game (where you have to be level eight or higher to write a song) but if you were in a band you would have the whole band together and you would write the song together. If you worked with an agency you would have to send the song to the agency to approve it first they would then send it back to you to publish it. The money that the band members earn would be the same as you earn money from songs in the game but they would all earn the money instead of just one person.

There is also two ways to get into a band if you dont want to form it yourself ( working with an agency or joining a band in the world) so people can have different choices of gameplay. Teens adults and elders could all form bands and it could be a small band that is more of a hobby or a good career option as well.

lastly there could be music shows that bands could preform at there could be a stage, equipment, toilets, food stands etc at concert venues. People could come to the concerts (there could be more people if the band was famous with the get famous pack) and the band could earn money from ticket sales. The bands could also preform at bars as a group to earn money.

Thank you for reading this far, if you have any questions ask and if you use this idea please let me know.
