April 2020 Survey

I hadn't even thought of heists and now I ~need~ them, they've ruined me by mentioning it lol.

I want everything too, but I do think no addition is going to be as awesome as it can be without fixing emotions and relationships and personalities and having consequences, so those kinds of things were at the top for me.

My sim made Bjorn leave his family for her (just to kill him off and keep the house later) and then when I had his daughters over to the house, they were just... friendly... half a green bar for this lady they'd never even met before who just wrecked their family. Where's the unadulterated hatred? Where's the drama? They should have been implying her mother is a llama and pranking her toilet.

Vote HIGH on Growing Pains and Life Issues! I think it would add a lot of interesting things in in my sims lives! Not just being happy and rich all the time. It is so boring. I need more surprises and *some* hardship in my game.

PS. i think they should at least add bands and cheerleading in Discover University but I think we have to pay for My First Band pack and Cheerleading pack according to EA marketing strategy.

I pictured mountains with terraced rice fields. Maybe a Great Wall. They could have temples too and traditional houses. But I did wonder why "countryside" though and not you know a historic city for instance.

@Gordy I had the same thoughts about the Chinese countryside it seems so awkward and weird when china has so many more amazing locations. I pictured a more open brittleton bay with a chinese style fx background and chose it last ???

1. NPC Story Progression (completely optional of course, would be great if it doesn't automatically applies to townies/NPCs who already have met our sims)
2. Growing Pains and Life Issues (Yes please. I want lasting impactful events for my sims)
3. Modern Love and Romance (This game is very lacking in romantic interactions so anything to add more depth to it would be welcome. Improved chemistry feature? turn ons/offs? online dating?)
4. Shopping Malls (I'd like to have the option to go and buy things directly rather than already having everything I need)
5. American Highschool (I always said I wanted an education pack rather than just university)
6. Bands (not high on my list but could be fun to others)
7. Heists (I wonder how that would work but could be fun)
8. Cheer (ok)
9. Fan Club Creator (could be added with bands)
10. Culinary Quests (why?)

Would have loved to see sims having interests/hobbies so I could differentiate between them

Then it's always

babies (that goes without saying)>children (more activities/events and interactions for them)>elders(same as for children and teens)>toddlers (maybe they could add the crawling stage before walking in a free update)>adults>young adults
I assume they didn't add teenagers because they're already working on them right now.

For locations

1. Swiss Mountain Town
2. South African City
3. Italian Vineyard
4. Greek Islands
5. Spanish City

Those are the ones I am the most interested in, the others could be added later.

1. Consequences of making or breaking relationships ( I always ask for more consequences and not just moodlets for only 2 days)
2. Long term desires: Aspirations are just tutorials or short goals (first, we nee more aspirations to choose from)
3. Connections to family members outside of the household/ Family evolution outside the household (those two could be together, great for my large families)
4. Being born with traits/Developing traits over time (could be interesting if they improve they way traits and emotions are handled in the game. I would love to see (child/teen/adult) sims created in CAS already having skills which will be decided by us)
5. Short term desires (whims which correspond to the sims personality, could also add their interests, hobbies and skills)
6. Control of Sims that are not currently on the active lot (isn't that already possible?)
7. Emotions (make them more impactful to the sims lives, do not make them override their personalities/make them more nuanced: a good sims will not be happy in the same way an evil sim will and vice versa, same goes for other emotions)

I noticed this as well! Hopefully they've been seeing the talk in the pack/idea forms and are already working on something good. There's soo much more that they could be doing with them!

I ranked story progression super high, along with a Swiss mountain world and the Scottish highlands.

Scottish Highlands! <3

I do wonder if they will make these things for the sims4 though

Oh, look. They remembered babies are a thing. Lol All of these options should already be in the game and it's mind boggling how they are only NOW thinking of improving these things... when this game has one or two years left. And half of these things won't even make it for sure..

I was thinking the same thing - I wonder if this was really for Sims 4 or actually Sims 5...

Why are there no questions for teens?

No one knows. I'm hoping it's because they've already started working on an update or pack for teens.

Scottish highlands were also my favourite choice. The family progression an connection too like bands too. More baby and elder option is also welcome. My least interest was the american high school. I know these only from tv shows, and there they are always represented as the worst places to go, so no thanks. :smile:
