As summer is coming up, i'd like to see all the pool stuff we're missing for ages. (Two promising stuff packs, none of the features)
Lounge-/deckchairs, water slide, pool bar, interactable pool waterfall, bring back the diving contest and let them play marco-polo in the pool!
Also more sim outdoor interactions from child to elder, like playing tag, frisbee, hopscotch, stone paper scissors (...lizzard, spock for nerds), building kites and let them fly, maybe also paper planes. Limbo contests! Kids drawing with chalk on the paveways together, or playing tic tac toe... Being able to give away gifts to other sims would also be nice, in a variety of possibilitys: normal, romantic, prank, nerdy...
The Build mode must haves are (still) L-shaped and spiral stairs, useable elevators, pedestals, independent foundations... and let colors match, at the moment white ain't always white, and 10 shades of black drive people insane. Also more vibrant plain colors for wallpapers. yellow, red and orange always look smudgy and dull.
Give us back smaller sized, and less noisy science equipment aka telescope and microscope, bigger is not always better.
Give the clubs from Get Together a time schedule, so you can make unplayed sims/clubs appear autonomously (just) at certain timespans in their club meeting locations. So much more possible ambiance.
Enable giving close friends a key to your house, not just for city living appartments, and add a function to shoo away unwanted visitors, without saying hello first (and make the "ask to leave" conversation for friends less dramatic ;) )
Careers Careers Careers! Sculptor, rock-/popstar/-singer active careers, stylist maybe even with option on his own shop.
Bands, at least the option for jam sessions, adding drummers to the musician skills.
Some more rabbit hole Careers would also be good, with the related career rewards... and how about some more vampire friendly options.
Talking about vampires we defenitly need more occult creatures, werewolves and witches especially come to my mind, and that would bring back astrology, alchemy, and spellcasting as skills.
Sims University Expansion, nothing more thrilling than living life between being a party animal playing juice pong and having mental breakdowns because you did not study for the test tomorrow! And one can't be a real Plumbot inventor without having a dregree on your wall saying so.
Plumbots. Because they're hilarious and fun to play with. (And please no cheap version like the current Plant Sims...) And yes they would be no new thing, but why not carry on with something that was well made.
More social CAS traits, mostly all sims react the same way in any given situation, where are the shy ones, the posh, the humorless, the overly emotional, the party animals and all the other ones that just don't react as you would expect them to when playing.
This should include more chances to fail in an interaction, as example a animal lover will more likely react negative or start arguing when talking to an animal hater, as a serious sim would to someone who's always playful (not even only specified by action, than by contradictory traits - if they know them) Some may say that it makes the game "harder" i say it would add a little more spice to it.
Laptops, Sketch Blocks and pen&paper for writing, that you can use anywhere.
More makeup variants, and not that kind of blocky, artsy colors like the aliens got, a little more blushes here, some more decent eyeshadow there, in colors that actually match and can be used in an everyday apparel.
More basic color swatches when it comes to clothes, you cant do pink and green and mudcolored, and don't give an option to white and blue and red, if you know what i mean. And we definetly need more skirts, especially long ones.
Phew, now that was a lot of wishful thinking and writing, and i'm sure i've forgotten some vital things, but thats it - for now.
