New Official Sims 4 Expansion Pack Survey

I was able to do the survey and I picked the royalty one and the one with an expansion on water activities including the house boats. Im not terrible interested in either. However, I know a lot of Simmers are AND I think both of these types of titles could be great fixes or improvements for packs we already have. 

In the sections that allowed to write our opinions and suggestions I made sure to ask for as additions to what they already said was coming in the pack if it was made.

The survey module hasn’t been tested on mobile, and the ‘next’ button is fixed at the bottom of the viewport without any padding on the page. This causes some answers to be hidden behind the button, making them impossible to select. I had to switch to a computer to complete it.

The criminal EP sounds interesting and was my top pick. I also voted for the 80s/90s EP because it seems like the perfect throwback to what American kids might’ve done after school 20 years ago. Since I grew up in France, I’d love to experience that, lol. The kids camp pack sounds fun, but somehow I don’t see it being as fully developed compared to the descriptions of the other packs.

The houseboat/submarine exploration EP feels exactly like what Island Living should’ve been (and it could’ve included hotels too).

As for the monarchy theme, I honestly don’t see how it fits with the rest of the game. It would probably need to be a standalone game, like Sims Medieval.

I wish they let us picked 3 instead of 2 .I think the retro world is probably more likely to be made.Simmers wanted a more retro style for a long time.

The ones think are unlikely are archeologist dig.I think it's just too niche.Either way I hope they least pick four of these,but the reast rethink some features to be in game packs.

I liked most of them too.

1. Sleepaway Camp
2. Ocean World
3. Gritty City - Would love a Superhero/villain theme for this one
4. Post-Apocalyptic Survivor
5. Modern Monarchy
6. Cyberpunk
7. 80/90s Retro World
8. Adventurous Exploration (I agree that this one could easily fit into the Ocean World)
9. Van Life

The first six choices I put down as very interested and the last three are in the somewhat interested category.

I tried to take the survey but it broke and when I tried to restart the page it claimed that I already completed it. Nice to know that even their surveys are broken...

You can actually retake the survey on different device (say on phone if you did it on computer) but yeah gotta be careful to not page refresh 😅

It's a no-brainer for me: I want diving, I want houseboats, and I want them yesterday.

I would not have thought of the van life pack, but that's intriguing. I would probably buy, particularly for the mechanic career, but it would be weird if we got only vans and no other cars, motorbikes, etc.

I have zero interest in monarchy, retro mall, gritty city, or cyberpunk. The rest all sound somewhat interesting; I might buy, depending on the details, but could live with or without any of them as described.

SimmingalWait, this isn't realistic at all. If everything collapsed you wouldn't have anyone to steal from. 💎💍

I think the problem with archaeology one is the similarities with Jungle Adventure and Island Living like we can already dig things from the ground and do conservation on the beach

if we had more archaeology I think I would prefer egypt kind of setting rather than beach

if we get more sea stuff I think I'd like it to be more about the open sea and under the sea and sea sports like non rabbithole diving, surfing and sup boarding

maybe instead of another small town setting we could have small fully customizable private islands scattered around the map and some boats that fit more than one sim to travel between those ?

maybe we could do some beach volleyball, hammocks or that castaway survivalist thing on the islands?

think im already kind of overdoing it on the gameplay tbh but ah I just wish it was more about the gameplay things less about beach town thing we already have

(also sorry you totally did not ask for whole pack idea as reply 😂 my dang brain just got too deep into the beach problem)

Okay its top secret but Nancy Landgraabs toilet paper bunker is still standing you did not hear this from me 🕶
