What are some updates you think should launch next?

I’m not just talking bug fixes and minor things like that. What do you wish would be added or upgraded to existing game options?

I’ll start: I think we need more career options, and more playable career options. Also more degree options that could and already would correlate. Why didn’t the life and death pack include a degree in mortuary science? Why didn’t royalty & legacies include leadership or politics as degree options? Why aren’t university classrooms playable yet when they’ve made it happen for teens with the high school years pack?

Another idea would be to update the Vampires gameplay. We have dynasties and werewolf packs now, why can’t we form actual covens? This would work for spellcasters too. Honestly the entire vampire world needs an overhaul. By comparison, every other world and occult got so much (with the exception of aliens) but vampires has five residential lots and a town square they can’t even actually travel to? There could be a bat cave for exploration that leads to a cemetery or something. A plasma themed bar. An actual town square or park location. 

I don’t necessarily need another expansion pack, but I would love to see EA go back and add more to the existing gameplay options given how far the game has come.

    There's definitely a way but it's not in the budget they did that to an existing pack we asked will they're be more upgrades, additional gameplay to an existing pack they said no we haven't seen one since spa day or we would have tons of revamped and updated packs.

    100%! I love these and would love to see this stuff in game

  • In general i have a list of things for base game that would make the game feel more complete and coherent to me:

    B/B:

    • World edit tool: Allow us to decorate out of a lot+Allow us to give each neighborhood lot traits and challenges, so we don't have to add them to the lots.

     

    Gameplay:

    • Willow Creek and Oasis Springs festivals;
    • Interactive frogs and fishes;
    • Careers: Careers from BG NPCs (librarian, maid, etc.) and workplace/gigs for existing careers.
    • NPC management: Assign sims to show up in a role, work, etc.
    • Proper ghost lifestyle: No more ghosts acting like they living sims.
    • Zombies
    • Social compatibility: I think we should have it but based on things the sims have in common instead of that special preference category.
    • Public transports: School bus, taxi, etc.

     

    CAS

    • Hair Paint mode (or just color sliders): So we can choose our hair color, add custom dye styles to existing hairs, add patterns, etc.
    • Torso accessories: Backpacks (HSY and DU needs), Baby carriers (GRO), Belts, corsets, harnesses (Lovestruck need), Purses, Cloaks, Wings, etc.
    • Hair bangs: Like a hair bang accesory that we can use to stylize hairstyles.
    • Attraction options: Missing categories liks eye color, hair lenght, accesories, occult type, etc.
    • More Swatches for 2014-2017 clothes (specially masculine ones).

    There’s definitely a way they could create the ‘upgrades’ and launch it as an occult pack or careers kit or something like that. If the concern is profit, they can still make a profit and upgrade existing gameplay. I would 100% pay for additional content that revamped the vamp world or created a new vamp world. Just because a pack came out early on in the sims 4 timeline doesn’t mean they can’t do more with it now.

  • So the devs have answered that it takes more out the budget to upgrade or go back and add more to existing gameplay they did that with spa day adding painting and nails and they never did an upgrade to a pack or an existing game since, we even seen in game that they reuse existing animation and call it a different name like for example in Enchanted by nature Sims can fall asleep on the ground but with werewolves we already did that, or bathing in water the same animation in bathing in a waterfall. 

     

    The university pack was before the high school years pack so in the university there's no active classes just like we wanted interactive classes for highschool we were told that couldn't but with b&h you can hold an interactive classes... Okay lol. 

    The vampires were brought out early on like maybe the 3rd year of Sims 4 being what it was and the world was so limited back then and the gameplay was limited. 

    For an update myself I would want vehicles NPC and playable. 

     A preteen Lifestage 

    Wearable Accessories like purses, backpack, **bleep** pack, duffle bag, wallet chain etc.

    Sick having the option of going to the hospital to get well like how the pets go to the vet. 

    I would like more playable careers.
