Next Packs

I'd have loved to see the retro-themed Arcade Stuff Pack from the community pack survey. That looked really interesting and got a good bit of good feedback, and I've gotta be honest I'd get it from the rad-looking concept art alone.

What I'd then do, of course, is convert all of the pack's content to TS3 where I'd immediately be able to put all of it to better use. I find myself needing A LOT of good period content lately, unsurprisingly.

@GrijzePilion I completely agree. I especially love the clothing style (I'd wear pretty much all of these myself, I swear xD)

What I personally like about those clothing concepts is that they're all heavily 80s-inspired, with bits of 70s and 90s too, but they're more something one might wear nowadays if they were particularly enamored with "recent retro" styles. So they're not just period dress-up like the TS3 pack, but more a hipster sort of deal. Not a fan of the guys' clothes though, they look horrible. But the hairstyles are great, I'd like #2, #3 and #5 in my game.

80s fashion was kinda bad for males :D

I would love to see a remake of the island resort from Sims3. I loved the scuba diving stuff. Also would be cool to add packs for the Egypt and Asian locations. Could do a lot of cool thing with those

I have big dreams, you guys.

1. I agree with the retro arcade idea! Wish we could have gotten that instead of laundry. And speaking of 80's/arcade/etc, it would be so fun to have a pack with a monster/monsters in it with a mystery to solve. ;)
2. Or an expansion that's just mystery themed with several mysteries to complete! Like Syberia, Nancy Drew, L.A. Noir, etc. :)
3. Going along with the craziness that is Sims, it would be fun to have a superhero themed pack, where your Sim can be exposed to radiation or something and then turn invisible (or whatever) at will, allowing them to pull pranks or catch bad guys and stuff. Combining that with the detective career or the Get Together clubs would be fun.
4. A criminal career pack would be fun as well! You go to work and have to rob a bank or steal a jewel or something. You have to figure out how to break your Sim out of jail, etc.
5. And a 'treasure hunter' pack would be great. It could be pirate-themed (maybe) or just plain old explorer-themed and your Sims could charter a boat and sail the equivalent of the Caribbean looking for treasure, or hire a plane and fly off to raid tombs, etc. Competing against other treasure hunters/fighting pirates would be a huge plus. Lots of new collection items to find. You could even open up your own museum, or sell the items to the highest bidder for tons of Simoleons!
6. A Hollywood themed pack: Your Sim has dreams of stardom and moves to pursue a career in acting, directing, singing, etc. When/if your Sim becomes famous, you get to attend the Sim version of the Oscars/Grammys and possibly be nominated!
(my favorite!) 7. I know we kind of already have the ability to visit that alien planet, but a space station pack would be awesome, with the ability to visit a few more planets and colonize them. I'm geeking out just thinking about it.
8. Finally, I would love to see more international packs. One international expansion would be even better, but I guess I won't hold my breath on that one.

Id love to see a farming pack

I know that Seasons is in the works, it was confirmed in the latest SimsVIP video. I hope it's announced soon! :)

I'm sort of working on a (very basic) superhero career+trait mod pack. I'm a screenwriting student in college and have been working with/on superhero tv pilots. But it would be much better if EA released it (obviously).

I def would love a Farming pack to the core,
but mostly I'm feeling for an mega Cultural/International Pack - I can imagine lifestates inspired by various folklores, New Family interactions (Asking for a sims hand in marriage, Marriage life advice, New spouse doing a customary dance for sim, Family can agree and Object, Maybe do quests to prove themselves worthy ;), Age Rites of Passage customs? Ceremonies, Sims carrying jars of water on heads, Toddlers being carried on back cloths, Homeschooling.
Wrestling for a spouse or some drama,
Traditional clothing

Careers could be: Chieftain, Farmer, Midwifery?, Chosen One, Blacksmith, Merchant, Tailor, Dancer, Shaman, Hunter? Children could maybe play tag or have some safe swordfighting, Maybe sims could make perfumes? or Dyes for clothing?
Instead of sims mourning, maybe they could do ancestral worship? Maybe when sim dies they will become a deity or something based on the folklore?
