more ideas for sims 4
I have some ideas for the sims 4; - buy your own dokters clinic (like vet clinic) So you can have your own doctor practice! - university - people in a weelchair and more realistic diseases; -...

@AndyZhang2896, I'm guessing that either you don't have the Get to Work EP, or that the illnesses in that pack aren't challenging enough for you. The Original Poster wanted handicaps and diseases, though, not illnesses. But you are correct in that our current illnesses don't really restrict you from doing anything (you still can go to work or school) unless you have too many other negative moodlets.
I do like your idea for a vague made-up religion, so nobody gets offended. 🙂 Perhaps this is what the OP @Deborah21081987 had in mind, but she hasn't replied back, and I just assumed she meant real religions. 🤔
I do wish they would have the Creat A World since so many people want more worlds in their game. We had that in TS3, and I thought it was hard to use. I'm sure if I had instruction I would have liked it better.😳 But I know a great many people loved it! :eahigh_file:
I wouldn't mind nicer looking cars for our driveways. I'm just afraid that even with non-functional cars most people would be really angry. 😞 You and I would be satisfied, but Twitter would go haywire with outrage that the cars were non-functional! 🤨 TS2 had cars that our Sims would get in and pull in and out of the driveway. The car would then disappear and you'd get a loading screen and show up wherever you selected to travel to. I think you could also woohoo in them. I know you could fix them up and resell them ! They had that aspect in TS3 as well! In TS3 the cars would travel through the world , but the Sims would teleport into and out of the cars! It was kind of weird! 😃
Well, they might be working on a Farming pack.. I really hope they plan on doing one! But just because people are talking about it in the YouTube comment section doesn't mean that EA is planning on doing it. People are also talking about how they wish they would bring back open worlds,. cars, the CASt color/pattern wheel, babies that aren't objects, pre-teens, etc., but most of those will never be brought into TS4. However, there is always a chance that EA will hear and see these requests , and what they can't do in TS4, they might put into TS5, if they make a TS5! 🤞🥳
Finally, one of the Sim Gurus Tweeted a teaser that we might be getting a new staircase type! (Most likely spiral). :eahigh_file: This was asked because spiral stairs seem like they would go great with a Magic pack, which we are getting in a few weeks with The Realm of Magic Game Pack!
@MsSamLStory, The Sims 2 is my favorite version of the Sims!!! ❤️ It was fantastic for stroytellers and had phenomenal gameplay!🥳 Each Sim would collect both good and bad memories and you would have memory markers in their information panels that you could reference. You could also compile your pictures from your game and put it on your Sim page and make like a story book for others to read! I had so much fun with this! The gameplay also focused more on events and would have these cutscenes for things like a first kiss or a baby being born! :eahigh_file:
But, even if they were to add a feature like this, I don't think it would be anywhere near as good as the TS2 gaming experience was. But since you never played TS2, you would have noting to compare it to! 😇 I think this would be a step in the right direction.🥳 However, since many of us have been playing TS4 since it came out 5 years ago, I'd rather them have done this sooner as many of our most played families wont' be able to have their memories recorded. 😢 Still, I would enjoy something like this. ❤️
Finally, I don't think it is a good idea to encourage people to "spam" EA with suggestions. It is better to discuss suggestions within the community (but don't spam the community either) and then post the suggestions either here (like you did), or on the official TS4 Forums : https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/934752/feedback-share-with-us-what-you-would-want-to-see-in-the-game

@PugLove888 Didn’t mean for that to be taken too seriously, though I do get anxious and obsessed over ideas and start sharing them at impulse. Which...I guess is spamming even when it’s not done in the exact same place, soz. Should I remove it before someone really does that?
Hi @MsSamLStory I realize Mods are not for 'everyone' but just thought I'd mention, that the mod MCCC allows for what you're mentioning, (stories) mods, if kept up to date for your game (and you may only need a few) are not difficult to maintain, the MCCC, for example, is kept up to date, and here are some tips on maintaining your game with mods and cc, if you do choose to use a few of them. Zerbu also has something called 'Experiences' that I used to use.
@Deborah21081987 There's also:
- A Private Practice Mod, (also has a current update) by SimRealist
- There are also various mods/cc for farming available, like fruit/veg stalls, by Alex Croft @ ModTheSims (functional Grocery Sets) and at TSR soloriya makes a lot of amazing Rustic Style food/produce stands and items. Also, farm animals (static) I think, but are available to 'sell' and made by Kawaiistacie. ('my first Animal Farm')
- A Get to College mod, and a Go to School mod (they are not compatible together though, if you choose one, stick to just one)
Hope this helps a bit, and
Big fan of Mods and cc, there are some awesome artists out there, making wonderful ways to customize your Sims 4 Game!
I have no connection to EA@Sashas0nic I use mods and I love them dearly. However, the mods you mentioned aren’t exactly what I meant, but it’s ok. (I might still use them though, because my sims themselves deserve memories) I don’t think I would use that ‘Memories Patch’ I was referring to myself hence the part of my original post about “Being God of a virtual world”, I actually quite enjoy creating the stories myself and seeing how other sims in other universes have different stories such as Darling Welsh, from City Living, is a great example.
Her story changes from simmer to simmer, in some she’s cis gendered, trans, non-binary. Some people make her and her roommates cousins, some say she’s a social worker that took Darling in. I LOVE THAT! I love the changing stories and how anyone can create a different story for the same character.
Also, I forgot who asked for it, but university....Why not have it as a Get to Work add on? Like, I can see EA, or a talented modder, having University be a part of their “jobs” menu and give simmer’s the option of going with the sim to “work” (University) or just sending their sim off. As for how to pick majors, maybe have a list of “Jobs” as different Majors and your sim can earn skill points according to which major chosen (There’s a better schools mod that does this for elementary and high school). Also when you “Graduate” and you receive a degree you get a trait called “Graduate” which can function like the “Connections” trait that gives you jobs at higher levels.
....
Man, I wish I could program.
No problem, @MsSamLStory guess I mainly mentioned the MCCC as it has the Story Progression, and controlling of NPCs to a large degree, as well as much more (I don't use it myself, but hear a lot about it) also, from your mention of 'Stories' and such, it can do that also to an extent. (jump to about 6:10 mins in the following video, for those that want an outline of the mod)
I often post in these topic threads, in case people search for answers in the future.. 🤓 🤔
Afterall the Sims 4 is pretty packed full, with the expansions, but sometimes customization is there for people too ⭐
There's also a Mod called Meaningful Stories, by Roburky, who is constantly adding to its features.
Happy Simming: Play it, Mod it, (or not) but Have Fun ☕
@MsSamLStory, I'm glad you didn't mean to suggest spamming in a bad way! You could always change your post to encourage people to just make a suggestion to EA. 😇 Even if you didn't really mean for people to spam EA or others, some people could take it the wrong way, and nobody would want that to happen! 😞
But I'm glad you are so excited about the Sims! 🥳
A lot of people on the sims group would like to have a farm pakkage for the sims 4.
With:
-farming,
-milking cows,
-collect eggs,
-horseriding,
-sheep's for wool and
-barns.
And maybe also things you can do with the wool, spinning the wool and make your own clothes. Making cheese and butter with the milk. Plowing your land with a tractor or a workinghorse. Bigger plots to harvest more vegetables or potatoes.
- @PugLove888 There are simmers who would take that 100% seriously. I've seen simmers rage about how we need to spam EA and force them to give us this and that. I think that wave of reasoning is over aggressive and a bit egotistical. But that's just me
- @MonkeyButts99 That's about right. When I was programming and designing websites, if someone was THAT aggressive about what they wanted, it just reinforced my desire to NOT do it that way.
The best thing is for everyone to make their desires known and not be so annoying about it.
Like Pug stated, there are reasons they did things the way they did. The whole open-world/non-open world thing is 100% correct.
Making the entire world open is what caused the majority of Sims 3 problems. They desired to correct it in the next game, but I do think they took it too far. Closing it off THAT much and taking it almost all the way back to a Sims 1 state is WAY too far.
