Re: mini fridge should have been counter compatible

@PugLove888HII again! Got buisy traveling and visiting the US!!

Yeah the whole split level thing has made me give it up completly. I still fin it fun to so on some houses, but it doesnt work on recreating my own house. 🤭

The whole bunkbeds thing frustrated me so much yesterday !!! I was building a tiny house and a bunkbed would have been perfect for the two roomates. They're adding the murphy bed in the new pack , but I would have loved to see bunkbeds too or even more.

The whole cc thing is really starting to bug me now. Since dicover university CC has been ruining my game, or the patch has ruined my cc. It's frustrating because I have to locate the problem and work hard to just find the issue. Everything was competly fine untill the patch from today or yesterday. Now the UI in game won't show up. It just buggs 😉 me that the devs make new patches and it makes cc go old. It's not their fault, but it's still frustrating because I've become so used to my game being enhanced by CC. There's a lot I can make and create with all the cc that covers areas which the sims team haven't been focusing on. I tried playing without cc and I felt like it was more difficult to create diverse houses and sims sice my options got more limited. I hope that for the sims 5 they make it easier to have CC and it not being buggy after just a new patch.

I really hope they're working on the sims 5 tho. It feels like the sims 4 has lived long enough. I love the game, but there are some core gameplay features that makes the game boring after some time. I've done challenges and such, but it's more on the immersion of the game and the way I feel like the sims turn into a ru\outine thing. I play so much in my house becuase theres littel time to go out and then I have to go through loading screens. I wish they added open neighbourhoods and shoppingmalls or gorcerie stores. Would love to have my sims walk to the stor to buy food and clothing. Theres litte reason for them to go out of the house without it just being the bar or the gym.

I'm currently watching the tiny home stream and I'm very excited for this stuffpack! I think it might become the best stuffpack just because of the things we get in it that are versitile and enhance gameplay.

Btw have you checked out Paralives? I'm really positive about the development and it seems to be really cool! I love that it looks quite costumizable, like the bed-functions and the way you can resize all the furniture.

@kameo123, hope your traveling was fun! 🥳 The US is so large that you can see a lot of different places and have not even scratched the surface! 🤨
I'm still hoping that true split level houses will be a thing in TS4! 🤞 I had a childhood friend who had a wonderful split level house that was actually four levels that zigzagged and were separated by little mini staircases! ❤️ I've tried to recreate that house for days, and just can't do it. (Granted I'm not much of a builder! 😳) But I bet it is way more frustrating to not be able to build your own house in the game! 😞
If they have to choose between a murphy bed and bunk beds in this pack, I do agree that a murphy bed is better for this pack... however, bunk beds should have either been included in City Living or in the Kid's Room Stuff Pack! 🤨 But I'm sure they are trying to figure out how to make bunks work in TS4, and if and when they figure it out, they will be thrilled to give them to us! I'm sure they are sick of us mentioning them, to say the least! 😃 Still, I don't understand why ladders weren't included in the Tiny Living pack since they already have the animation (pool and deck ladders) and a great many of tiny homes use ladders in real life... far more than bunk beds or even murphy beds! 🤨
That is why I don't use CC or Mods any more. I used one mod in TS1 and used both Mods and CC in TS2 and TS3. Had huge problems with them in TS3 😢, so I quit them all cold turkey! 😞 I've never used them in TS4.

But that is the problem . The TS4 developers need to continue to add to the game until the game ends or is near its end. Since we have at least 2 more years , we have 2 more years of development on the way. I want the game to develop, as do most people ! 🙌 But it is impossible for EA to develop around all the existing Mods and CC (and even if they could, who is to stop someone from making new Mods and CC?!?!? 🤔 So, EA is just making their game and they can't design it around all the things that people want to add to it. And the only time when Mod and CC creators can make their items to never become outdated is when the last bit of content by EA for TS4 is released. If you want to play with Mods and CC , that is just something you have to live with and work around! 🤨 I'm too lazy to keep up with all that, so I am one of the people who shouldn't use Mods or CC. 😃 Because I could easily go crazy with CC like I did with TS2! I was obsessed with dressing my Sims to look like they were from any century except the current one! 🥳
I find reasons to got out to other venues but I do prefer home gameplay. However, I enjoy the festivals in City Living's San Myshuno and often venture out to those🥳
. But I love to travel much, much more in TS4 than in TS3. TS4's 15-30 second loading screen is waaaaay better than TS3's 20-30 minute wait for the game to start working again 😢 (if it even would... sometimes I had to reboot, and there goes another 20-40 min! 😬 ) And then the venues in TS3 would be empty! 😞 The loading screens in TS4 are so short! 🙌
So, I don't want open worlds like TS3!!! The only way I could like open worlds is if they fixed them so our computers could still run (and at a decent speed) and didn't have empty lots when you traveled somewhere. 😇

I'm very excited for the Tiny Living Stuff Pack too! 🥳 The items will still work in our larger builds, and will be perfect for those small rooms in a normal sized house that are hard to decorate, not to mention our apartments in City Living, dorms in Discover University (especially with the building cheat), and for homes where you want non-controllable roommates to live with you, since to make them happy they need certain things in their rooms in order to be happy, and a one tile space dresser is perfect for this! 🙌
