Ok so I was wonder how the sickness system is going to work when the Sims 4 seasons comes out. In the past the sickness system always came with seasons, but now it's in Get To Work. So what I'm wondering is will there be new sickness added. I mean all they would really have to do is add a few new names and not have to change that much code. If anyone would like just tell me what you think.

Maybe instead of new sicknesses we just have seasons to make them worse. So if the sim has bloated head then maybe if they go outside in the cold it would be made longer and worse. I think that would make sense. :)

I am hoping that as they add packs they add to content from other packs so more illnesses or current ones being longer would be awesome!

i think they will be new ones but also that was already said the ones we have now will probably be may worse cause it not that many but also it hard for your sims to get sick now as it is so when season get added maybe they will up the rate

Yeah, I want my sicknesses to last for more than just 4 hours. In sims 3 you were sick for 2 days unless you went to go get a shot at the hospital. I would like for them to be sick for that long in the sims 4 as well and for emotions to not override everything.

My sim has only been sick like once for a day and 1 glass of orange juice fixed it. The sickesses need to be re-worked they seem lazy.

It's like, "your sim has stripes but otherwise shes fine". How boring.

Haha, true. The stripes thing looks more serious than it is.

I totally agree with @Hawkgirl.

They really do need to fine-tune the illness system. They're too easily curable and don't spread that easily. Plus, they don't really affect Sims' moods that much. They could exercise, dig for rocks, and do all that other stuff that a healthy Sim can do. When I'm sick, I feel really uncomfortable and don't even want to get out of bed!

I mean, stripes and spots are fine in the Sims, but the illnesses also should carry the chance of death if not treated like TS2 did. It would be too silly and pointless if there was no illness-related death. At least increase the rate of motive decay! That should add some challenge. :p

I like the spreading thing but I remembered in The Sims 2, when they had a bug infestation, everyone who got out of the house will fall sick and it spread too much which was kinda annoying to me. Haha. But yeah, I agree that it should affect the needs of the sims. :) Maybe they'll fix this when Seasons comes out or something.
