This may seem minor but it's something I noticed my first time playing ts4 and still bothers me now: when you fast forward time then music and tv fast forwards too, I use to always place a stereo in my game so I could listen to the sim music while I played but in ts4 it gets very annoying when you fast forward and switch to normal speed constantly, I just don't bother placing stereos anymore. And with tvs if I was raising their fun need I would watch the tv with them, now you have to have it at regular speed to watch it and that would take too long.
I hate that too. There is no reason to distort the TV when fast forwarding.
I see a lot of you are talking about multiplayer. I think a live multiplayer would take too much away from the sims game. Remember Simcity 2013? Games are best played offline. Instead, we could share content. Say you are friends with someone... Sims created by your friends (or maybe even random people) can show up in your game and walk around (kind of like townies). These sims are not controlled by your friends, nor is there live interaction. You can then control these sims in the manage households screen, probably under a new tab. Hopefully that makes sense.
I would say that Sims 4 introduced a lot of neat things, but they did seem to cut corners on many things. Such as lack of cars, the overhaul of build mode (good and bad), no house phones and newspapers, and a bunch of nit picky things (although there is a lot of them). I think I am ok with closed world, as long as there is a lot of functionality on a lot. At first I was annoyed with the small worlds, but the ability to travel between worlds replaces the lost functionality of a large world. In some aspects, this system is neater than the large world.
One minor thing. Notice how in sims 2, teens got out of school at 1PM. In sims 3, it was 2PM. In sims 4 it is now 3PM. Can we pull back on the school a bit? That is too much learning! How about 1PM or 2PM?
