When I see the majority wishing for re-runs of previous EP's I can't help but wonder if I'm the only one here who would like something completely new?

Things we've never had which I'd like to see in an EP or GP are:

• Full on farming with animals, livestock, CHICKENS!!! (Harvest moon feels)
  
• Superheroes, supervillains, including comedic crime situations. XD
  
• Retail therapy - days out at a mega mall would be awesome.
  
• Family days out - Theme parks, zoos, sealife centers.
  
• Full on sports pack, hobby and competitive style.
  

And while not new ideas I really would like to see some vast improvements to existing features before seeing new packs. Heck, I wouldn't mind if they actually game in a pack:

• Re-vamped AI and personalities
  
• Re-vamped social system- it's too cheery for me. You're supposed to be arguing, please don't hug immediately after.
  
• Better pool activites, interactive lakes/oceans.
  
• MOAR NPC. Burglars. Firefighters Strippers.
  

Then I'd be excited to see existing packs like University (including new teen models, too)

We just got laundry and that's completely new and not done before. Laundry was never something they made you buy on its own....

Laundry is not new. It was new in TS3. And from what I just played, those clothes piles are just as annoying. *sigh*

I've been doing my best to read between the lines of new content descriptions along with guru tweets. I think that we can almost certainly bet that there is an expansion coming with a winter resort world (hopefully including things such as skiing, snowboarding, *hot chocolate*) etc. Whether or not this would be a game pack or proper expansion I am not sure. But I do believe I have found hints that it could also sport a beach themed resort world as well. Therefore, differentiating from outdoor retreat and jungle adventure in the sense that they are "adventure type" worlds, and this ep would be more about relaxing aka perhaps "Sims 4 Resort Life" or something of the sort. This would make the most sense, and therefore I would heavily expect it to include two worlds, an alpine resort, and a tropical resort." Just my thoughts on it, from info I have gathered.

On a similar note, there is **Overwhelming** evidence in object descriptions in-game that cars are in fact coming. I am never one to engage in speculation, but I found entirely too much evidence. I will post some of this in a follow-up post. Whether or not this would be a free update or a game pack, I could not say. I anticipate it may be a bit of both. They may update the base game to support cars, and patch in a few basic cars, and then in the game pack include a lot more variety, perhaps a form of racing, mechanic career, maybe cars actually break down, etc. Regardless of how they arrive, I have little doubt that they will be here before years end.

I don't know what you could of possibly been following that was legitimate that said a winter and tropical resort that needs two worlds and the two resorts, that could be a potential stuff pack, since all it needs is to add two new places to go when you go to travel on vacation. But thats it. Honestly they are trying to raise profit in the sims 4 not drop it. They need to get out their most in demand and popular packs out and make them unique. Cars were only a thing in sims 3 because of the open world. Sims 4 was made to be multiplayer so they didn't give it the open world but they did decide against multiplayer. They seem to be putting cars in game more often to make up for the fact that we can't use cars in the game. Not that they are going to add the cars into the game, people who really want the cars bad enough, just get CC cars and driveways to put in their own houses even though they can't use them. Its not an open world so its not likely that cars are going to be implemented. Both of your theories helps bury the Sims 4 into the dirt. Not promote it. If sims 4 sales don't improve then there wont be a sims 5 or continuations of the sims 4.

I want University soooooo bad.

I really want Hotels and University to come back! I have been waiting for those since Sims 4 came out! I loved those on Sims 3 and I am almost about to just stop using Sims 4 and play Sims 3 just to play those two. I am confused as to why the Sims 4 did not focus on bringing the popular Sims 3 games back? I know the Hotels and University packs were very popular for Sims 3. Or am I wrong?

Could this be a hint to the next EP? Not sure if this was mentioned or not.

Like others before me, I am curious where this came from too! Some of those symbols on the left look like they could be something for witches/magic ?

I have a feeling that because cars and the open world are so widely missed from the sims 3 that there's an opportunity to make some kind of vehicle expansion pack (and I won't lie, I know nothing about cars but I wish my sims could own one).

My all time favorite pack has been Makin' Magic! I would literally play the crap out of it if they decide to go that route! :o

I want to second the votes for University. A resort theme would be great too. I do not want anything more to do with children, babies or toddlers at least for a very long while. Have been playing them lately and omg just too much stuff for them in my opinion. They could have put in just half of that and it would have been fine with me. Just seems like overkill for a life stage they just spend so little time in unless aging is shut off.

I also would love University, new jobs like being a teacher and you go to work with them. I would also like a farming sims, I love farming games and i love sims so why not join them.
Would be good to have more add ons. We got Vampires, now why not add fairy's, werewolf's and magic etc. We got get famous, now add the singing career. :) When they added get to work they gave us three jobs, add get famous and only one way to get famous...I would of rather the singing career.

Oh, not for a little while, yet.
