Sounds like I'm in the minority, but I actually do enjoy TS4 and am also looking forward to what's in store for us...
I really enjoy the CAS and building tools. I've probably created some of my best sims and houses when compared to my TS2 and TS3 creations.
However, just because I really like TS4, I'm not blind to the areas the game lacks still. While I'm really excited about the upcoming GP and also hopeful on further upcoming packs (University, please?) there still is alot of basic content that I personally feel the games severely lacks and need to be patched in. Not to sound like a broken record, but the game needs more NPCs. For example, I would like to see the Burglar NPCs and home security system patched back in; along with possibly the Social Worker and Repoman. Additionally, instead of our sims disappearing at the lot's edge, I would be thrilled to see the car pool, school buses, and taxis return. For me, it's the small details that really make the game immersive.
