I'm sure most people have seen that the sims mobile has bunk beds now, which has lead to a lot of complaining that we don't have them in the sims 4 but this is actually most likely a good thing! It means bunk beds are something the sims team is considering and it shows that they've been working on creating realistic animations for bunk beds. There's no way they'd work on creating realistic bunk bed animations for a mobile game and then not bring them to the main game, especially given how desired bunk beds are with sims players. https://hips.hearstapps.com/hmg-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/images/sims-mobile-bunk-beds-1594315601.jpg?resize=480:*Ladders came out a month ago aswell, which is obviously another big part of bunk bed animations, it seems a logical next step to release bunk beds after this. This combined with bunk beds being released in the mobile game a month later heavily signals that they're most likely coming sometime soon, possibly even with the upcoming game pack.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if you were right and they showed up in the next game pack. They've always said they couldn't budget them into a stuff pack but they would have to be a game pack or expansion pack. The signs all do seem to be here that this is going to be a reality soon. I'm just hoping that they add a simple version to the base game in case I don't want the rest of the pack they come with. :D

That game is made in Australia now. The people making Sims 4 aren’t the ones making that stuff. Last I checked there are bits of content in the mobile game Sims 4 doesn’t have. I don’t think it means they are coming to PC.

Maybe, people thought the same thing when Island Living was released with ladders.

I hope they come soon. I didnt know there was such a high demand for them. I also think that since they are adding them to the mobile game, then ts4 might be next.

Ugh, hopefully they aren't glitchy messes like the ones in TS3 were.

Bunk Beds are most likely coming soon!

I have no doubts they are coming. I'll be happy when people finally get them but I honestly don't get the obsession over certain objects. I remember people were going crazy for murphy beds, once they got it they moved on to the next obsessive item.
Besides being a bit of a space saver I doubt I would even use it much. I like my sims to sleep close to eachother it brings a feeling of togetherness.
I just wonder what kind of pack they will come in. Fingers crossed for teen or kid pack.

They must also crouch and crawl.

The ladder animation is useful for only 2 steps, the rest is completely new.

It should be ‘straight forward‘ enough to create a combination of different animations that studios have in their library. The ‘ladder’ animation and the ‘get into bed’ animation combined and tweaked a bit, will be perfect for bunk beds. Whatever I’ve seen from the bunk bed animation, this seems to be exactly the way it’s done. Depending on the complexity of movement, it may sometimes be easier to create animation from scratch, but I think there will always be an attempt at first to combine existing elements in order to save time and money.

It shouldn’t matter where the games are made. Whichever studio does the animations, they are easily transferable onto any rig. Same for the objects. Both studios should be sharing that data.

I do think bunk beds will be added to TS4 at some point.

I 100% agree with you but that hasn’t happened so far with any mobile exclusive gameplays stuff

True. So far it has been more common for TSM to take stuff from TS4, than the other way around.
Still. We may see a little change in that pattern, for the sake of those TS4 players who have been quite vocal about bunk beds. We'll have to see how the devs will handle this one...

Honestly, I'm not a player that desperately wants bunk beds, but the fact that TSM got them first even though there has been a large demand for them in TS4 really left a sour taste in my mouth, that ontop of the bunk beds being designed after the Tiny Living furniture sets. If we do get bunk beds they better be a free addition.

Heard "they're bringing bunk beds" at least a dozen times over the years, especially with IL (OMG Ladders!, Not that we had pool ladders for years). And TSM has lots of stuff that TS4 doesn't have. So it's just wishful thinking and Imho it signals absolutely nothing. As long as there is no hard proof for it, i wouldnt bet a Simoleon on it. Just hyping the same topic again and again doesn't make it reality.

I also think they are coming and that they will be included in a free update with more varieties added in a pack

Ah, this is something I've wanted for a good while! Given the animating part would be the most troublesome, wold it be asking too much for more than a single model design? And, well, that it doesn't come with its own odd twist much like the Murphy bed, what a shame it would be if the Sim in the bottom could get crushed by the one at the top, mainly if it also allowed for the Wohoo interation...

I don't mind if we're going to have a bunk bed, but I'm not sure if I will always use it in my game, because I don't even use the Murphy bed a lot. I would prefer if they could give us a new feature that is enriching our gameplay experience. But, yeah, having a bunk bed is okay & nice, but not really in my interest for the time being.
