News Next Week? 👀 Livestream Tuesday 4/27

Going from one of my favorite survey options this will be my guess... "Active High School only works if you are playing with teen sims and the new High School Expansion" I am now ready for the disappointment

To again diverge to the actual topic of the thread...

I honestly don't care what the next pack is. Yes, I want Werewolves and/or Faeries. I also want Bands, Heists (with Casinos/hotels), expanded School options and after School activities, a Medieval Stasis Eurofantasy pack, and more World Travel type locations.

About the only thing that would bring a yawn would be Farming, and even that I could get excited about if it included horses.

But we're not going to find out on Monday. Maybe Tuesday. :wink: Probably next week/month.

I wouldn't say that. With the way the gurus have been teasing were likely getting a teaser Monday and trailer Tuesday.

THIS is basically all I want for family gameplay - also, I want sims to do these things TOGETHER, like bike TOGETHER, jog TOGETHER, talking while doing so, building relationships. When Sims go to the park, they stand around and talk or each Sim does their own thing. There is nothing they can do together. i also miss the throw a ball game we had in TS3.

• turn on/offs
  
• picking our sims interests
  
• updated family relations (boy/girlfriends, fiance, aunt/uncle, cousins)

I know not all of this may be possible but this is what I think of in terms of gameplay with a generation's type pack.

Don't forget pillow fighting.

Man I hope this is a Romantic French Getaway.

Initially I was thinking it’s some type of occult pack but as we are due an ep soon as they are usually released may/June and occults in sims 4 are usually a gp I’m now not sure. At this point I don’t have any expectations as last year we got eco lifestyle and the Star Wars one which hardly anyone predicted so I no longer try guessing until we get more of an obvious hint to go off.

It's good I had a look in this topic so my enthusiasm is lowered. It's already obvious it won't be cars. Hotels would still be nice. I would still even go for Superheroes but please no fairies, werwolves or any of that fantasy stuff please.

Occult! Occult! Occult!

But I could swing for a playable school pack as well...

Genies, Fairies or Werewolves with a Moonlight Falls World would be so great.

I'd really like if they did something different with Fairies this time around....

I'd love to see something similar to what they have in Freeplay, but exclusively for fairy sims.

They made a world with gigantic vegetation where sims look really tiny (making them really feel like actual fairies). The tree stump house is genius, is a shell much like how apartments in TS3 are, you place it on the lot and build inside it. Hopefully Maxis codes fairies to not show their wings all the time too, because they were really obnoxious in TS3.

You're right, pillow fighting is missing.
