    Hi i am Adelaide!

    I wanna share my idea to make a new sims 4 expansion pack.

    I would just LOVE to have prisons in sims!
    Not only one but 2 prisons. One would be a western looking old jail with maybe a sherif and the other one could be in the city, modern and big.
    Just imagine all the posibilities with this pack! So fist off a sim has to do something illegal. (Steal food or items, get in a fight, not pay the bills, murder someone and so on). Then the police finds out about the crime (unless you somehow hide it) and puts you to jail. In jail you have 2 options. 1-do your time peacfully and try to not get in trouble and even make some money. 2- try to break out of jail! You could try to take guards down or dig a tunnel, steal a prison van or make the whole prison your allies so you have a big fight!..
    3- if your attempt to escape fails You will go to the shoe ( i have no clue if thats how you write it) there you will spend time alone in maximum security.

    The posibilities are endless.
    Now for the items. Of course there would be new clothing such as guard,prisoner,police officer uniforms and so on. (Maybe new tattoos?)
    There would have to be new metal toilets, cheap but strong metal beds, doors with a little opening for food, maybe climbable vents, metal tables with chairs for the prison cafeteria...

    So yeah as you can see this expansion pack would be HUGE but i think its a really needed one because i dont want sims who are starving or who wasted all their money on drugs to go around stealing.

    (I am really sorry about my english! I am not from there)

    Anyway, cheers from Lithuania ❤
  • Hi I play sims 4 but would really like to see a flower shop and a skill that lets you make bouquets for the game.I love flowers and to just pick them and not be allowed to make arrangements is kinda borring. So if you could do this i think it would really be fun. Thank you for your time . Diana Taylor

  • [Edited by EA_Mai: please, be respectful with everyone - you can find forum rules here]

    There’s a amazing idea I have for the sims and I believe nobody did not have any ideas the same as me. It’s somthing that everyone would love to keep getting sims.

    I think everyone need to come together and email the sims team or make a video and send it to them instead of randomly making cc and suff.

    Hair Dressing ! Barbers or even brush hair..

    You got objects in the game but its a dead object.. hair dressers will be good selling point.

    Hair dressers
    *Make your own shop
    *Community have made hairdressers already
    *Already got hair brush and Hot air dryer as dead objected
    *you already got make up tables ( recently added to game)

    You got pretty much there

    Just need washing sinks
    And need click plugs to do it all. Scripts

    'Dunno if this is possible since this pertains to packs already released, but I think it would be/have been awesome if previous packs like Spa Day and Outdoor Retreat had added in job options that pertained to the packs - they could have been rabbit hole ones. Like Spa Day would have added in two new job options where your Sims could be a massage therapist or a yoga instructor. Outdoor Retreat could have had a job option for Park Ranger. Parenthood could have had the job option for teaching and childcare/daycare. Then there are a few ambitions that would have done well with a job equivalent... like the Freelance Botanist, there could be a job in farming somewhere. The Curator being able to either work at a museum or make a museum considering all the stuff they collect. Animal Affection with the ability to train your pets - particularly dogs, could have led to an actual Pet Trainer job.

    I just think new packs and expansions in general could certainly add in new jobs like how City Living added in the Politician career... 'cause the ones we have rarely seem to fit the characters I'm going for, so it enters the case of "What is the closest thing this Sim can do for a job without being out of the character range I want for him/her/whatever?"

    Thanks!! <3

    Ideas pertaining to build and buy mode:
    - fix awkward lighting on diagonal items and interior lighting for the building even without it being a "room" (eg. outdoor lights = outdoor lighting, indoor lights = indoor lighting)
    - murphy bed
    - bunk bed
    - couch/bed/futon
    - ladder/direct vertical climbing to save space and make more tiny houses <3
    - more smaller side tables (they're all quite large except the small rolling tables from Get to Work, and the small triangular ones from Bowling Night)
    - more circular coffee tables, side tables, etc.
    - PLEASE MAKE THE DIAGONAL WALL THE SAME LENGTH AS A NORMAL WALL SO THAT THINGS WILL PLACE PROPERLY (eg curtains, windows, doors, paintings, tables, shelves, desks, etc.)
    - more roofing colour swatches
    - we need more beds, shelves, paintings/pictures, and wall swatches
    - elevators available anywhere in the world if you purchase the City Living pack
    - more frosted windows/doors in the colour swatches (eg. like City Living windows)
    - more farm-themed items (eg. Base Game has a rooster decoration and milk jug),


    Live mode:
    - farm items and interactions, farmer career, farm clothing items (eg. overalls, ratty jeans, torn t-shirts, work boots)
    - letting students attend school the way adults in the Get to Work pack can go to work as a Doctor, Detective, or Scientist, with functional chalkboards, desks, teacher NPCs, etc.
    - more arts/crafts items beyond the decoration from the Parenthood or Children's Room stuff pack(s), painting/photography/music isn't the only artistic skill, let kids make messes with it!
    - 1950s/vintage inspired clothing, music, and items to go with the Vintage Glamour Stuff pack

    Personally I would like to see more unique build items that way we can create homes that are more fun. I definitely would love to see some spiral staircases for specific time era homes, or just for fun because I would use them like all the time. I agree with the ladder idea, would be so much easier making a tiny loft build. I also would love to get some functional bunk beds as well as a better set up for a two story house. My house is a two story with a small landing between the upstairs and downstairs where our front door is seated. I've attempted to build it on sims and it just doesn't look right to me. I would also enjoy seeing a wedding game pack as well as some more careers, even just some small on the side jobs would be fun.

    It is not exactly a pack idea but it is something I would love to have in TS4 and that is eneven relationships! I have seen in discussions people mentioning that they have seen the bars being different for different sims but because that has been rare and because I have tried and failed so many times, I actually think this is a glitch and not a thing like in TS2. I would love to have that back as "secret crushes" between teens are awesome!

  • I would love to see an amusement park expansion pack. We could be able to build and design our own amusement park with all different types of rides and food places.
  • is there anyway to contact the board to give ideas how do I share ideas my sister and i have loved sims since they first came out and have a few ideas that we wish could come to reality

    Bringing up this old thread, because it's the most recent one I've found, and I have (I think, at least) a great idea for another pack for Sims 4. One thing I miss most from earlier Sims versions is the vacation options. I loved going to mountain resorts, beach resorts, etc. where there were new activities available like carnival games or skiing. (I don't think skiing was an option then, but it'd be fun.) I think it would be great to bring this back to the Sims 4. Sims could go to a beach resort, instead of just the jungle (which is a great pack), mountain resorts, amusement parks, etc. Each vacation location would have different activities, like what you would normally do on these types of trips (rides, skiing, snowboarding, carnival games, fancy buffet eating, meeting new people, spas, shop for souvenirs, etc). It could build sim family bonds & make sims relaxed after a nice vacation. Just a thought I wanted to throw out into the world to maybe be heard!

    @ginger11326, funny you mention that because today when you start your game, on the Main Menu, there is a new Survey and some of what you mentioned is on the Survey! 🤨🙂

    One of the things they asked about is how interested we would be to have certain activities like Skiing, snowboarding, mountainclimbing, etc.  and on another page they mention different types of skiing (if I rememeber correctly) .  They also ask if we would be intersted in hotel vacations, running a hotel, or owning more than one home.  

    I don't know if all of the ideas you have would make it into game or not, but it sounds like some of them very well might! 🙌  Except that we do already have Spas in the game if you get the Spa Day Game Pack! 🙂


    Also, jsut the other day someone else was mentioning amusement parks and hoping they would get added to the game.  We really haven't had any amusement park activities added in a pack since the original game The Sims had a carnival theme with a funhouse ride in the Makin' Magic EP!  (There was some amusement park add-on in TS3 if you purchased it through the TS3 Store, but I'm not counting that since it wasn't in an actual pack. 🤔)

  • Hi EA. My friend and I came up with the idea of a travel pack (it's like Sims 2 pack that you guys made but in the sims 4). We came up with this idea and we just had to tell you. We think that there should be trains, (train stations that we can actually go to. We can miss our trains if we fall asleep, people can steal stuff from our sims if we are asleep. We can buy snacks at the train station as well) and cars so that we can drive to places.

    Please take our ideas in consideration.

  • Hi ea, my friend and i thought of a new expansion pack you could do where we could travel! we would have cars, and trains! you could miss your station by falling asleep, or while your alseep someone could steal your money! it's not a loading screen when you travel it actually takes time to get to places! you have to pay for tickets! and if you don't have a car a taxi can take you to the train station (you use a train to get to different worlds). you can buy snacks at the train station. you can have car crashes too! I would really appreciate if you could do this idea please!

  • I know this was probably stated already but, a functional amusement park expansion pack would be an awesome addition to the sims 4!! Especially with carnival games and haunted houses, that allows adults teens, kids and toddlers to be able to use and interact with the rides and games.

  • underwater world and sea base expansion pack for sims for would also be a nice addition for multiple reasons :

    1) u already have marine biologist career

    2) u have mermaids and a lot would love to live and swim under water

    3) a clear glass round room made into a bedroom or dining or even an office with sea creatures swimming around outside sounds like an adventure to me

    Oh and on a side note sims 4 should have spiral staircases everybody loved the previous ones please bring back

  • I've always wanted a pack with disabilities. Being deaf myself, I think it'd be awesome to have it so your sim can have a hearing aid and get moodlets when it can't hear, making them sad or angry, depending on the situation. You could also add wheelchairs and blindness.

  • Hi there! I know  there  are a  few things in the works. But I think having a pack  that includes  royals. Like a new  world  for an older style monarchy setting. So you can create royal sims. Have their duties,  fight for the names, ETC.  Maybe have them include something about Princess Cordelia?
