We now have coding that lets Vampires break into your house and drink from you while you sleep, you also can't save or go into build just like when you were being robbed in sims 3 and 2. All we really need is to change the coding so that they steal.In my honest opinion though, I think there's a reason why we haven't gotten Cops/Firemen back. I think that reason is that they need cars to properly pull off. Would you guys even be okay with a firefighter coming in uniform to put out your fire if he had a truck? Or a police officer just cuffing a burglar and then vanishing off screen?

They should've made the town more interactive like in sims3. I haven't had to have a loading screen to travel since the first sims game. I miss having a car and cruising around town ):

Agreed, There is not even the need for something like GTW in this case, the cop career could work as the political one in City Living. And no, it is not redundant to have both cops and detective, Astronaut and Scientist were once the same thing, now they are each separated entities and i have no problem with that.

I would not trust a cop that'd just vanish with the burglar. That's real shady. :joy: I'd love burglars back, and repo wo/men. My materialistic sims need stuff taken so they can buy things again. :(

I tried that out for probably the equivalent of two sim weeks and then I quit the job. There were SO many glitches going on with that career that it was practically impossible to move forward. They would give you clues for the suspect you were supposed to arrest and 2 out of 3 times the entire description for the sim in question was completely wrong. I'd have to arrest three or four different sims in order to get the right one and it turns out that only one of the clues they gave me matched the description. Like they were wearing shorts or they were female.

In sims 3 i'd always forget to pay the bills because there wasn't a blatant notification and the repo man would always come and steal my furniture and mess up my house layout. It's funny because I want burglars though lol

Can we get burglars and cops now?

Tbh, I kinda want a burglar that is not always the random NPC but the random sim that work as criminal (Thief Branch) or people with kleptomaniac trait. But then i remember their dev prolly mess up with some lame bugs so yeah...

Let's stick with a regular burglar that came at night or a burglar that pretend to be a guest who come in the daylight. So then everyone can teach their kids about "Never open door for stranger especially the fishy one".

I really want the burglars and cops back, they could bring back the Brave trait too so your sims could beat up the burglar themselves.

I agree, I really missed burglars with their magically bags!

Let's hope they aren't just gonna code them with the klepto animation and ignore magical bags :/

I want them both back, but what I do not want is that creepy as* music playing when they were about to rob your house! I always got so scared my heart would always make a jump when I heard it :s

I love the creepy music though. D:

Creepy music sounds good. Don't forget the pop up that appears all so sudden too!

I would like that too. I hate to say it but I do miss being burgled from time to time.

I hope we are getting burglars and firefighters :)

Really enjoy the surprise visits from the vamps so this would fit right in. It is good to have a few unscheduled and unforseen things happening every now and then. Hope there will be scary music.

I want burglars, burglar alarms, and all of that back in the Sims 4. That was one of my favorite scenarios in the Sims 3. It's always hilarious to see your Sims sleeping while someone is stealing their TV, at least for me.

I think with Vampires being able to break in, we should be able to get Burgalars. My klepto sim is already talking things home from work, might as well have an NPC steal my items.

I also want RepoMen and the Social Worker. I would like to see my sims reprimanded for their negligence

I think I prefer the system of water/power getting shut off if you don't pay the bills, over the repoman. It's more realistic and to me it actually feels like more of a consequence because if you have broke Sims that can't pay their bills they have to sit around with no electricity, and eventually no water to shower or use the toilet, lol. It's because of this feature that I can play my household of "squatters" who don't have power or water in the house they are squatting in and they have to rely on neighbors for things.

It would be nice to have a social worker again, though. Instead of neglected kids proofing out of existence I'd rather have a social worker come to take them, and then have those kids go into the adoption pool so another family could take them in. I accidentally let a toddler starve and she just vanished, and my Sims didn't even react to it. I quit without saving of course, but it was like my Sims didn't even notice or care that their daughter had just basically starved to death. If we had a social worker NPC that would take kids and place them for adoption I might have left those Sims lose their daughter for being neglectful, and would have had another family adopt her. I can't accept the kid just disappearing from the game, though.

True. Repo man would take the most random objects as well

Yeah, I hate how kids just poof and then are culled out of existence. At least when I had a sim get culled due to gameplay it was because I arrested him (he was fun townie).
Plus, if other families adopt the child, it would be good for story telling and you can say the former parent wanted an open adoption so you could interact with them.

With burgalars, even if we don't get Police NPCs, I'd at least like detective sims to be used
