Sims 4 creators are not only missing things that made Sims 3 great but from playing this game for 239 hours so far... im disappointed with game play.
LOADING TO GO ACROSS THE STREET?!! REALLY??!!
How do you go from driving to lots in the Sims neighborhood to just bringing up a loading screen for everything. You shouldn't have to load the screen to go anywhere in your neighborhood. It really should show the Sims in transit whether they are walking or driving. The only time I wouldn't be mad if the loading screen appeared is if you were going to a different neighborhood; even then the loading screen could be something fun like .
MARRYING A SIM/DIVORCING A SIM
How come last names don't change or at least have an option to change your last name to your mates? Where is the option to move out or purchase another home like Sims 3? My sims divorced her husband and he couldn't move out on his own. This was very unrealistic...there used to be options for moving a sim out.
NO TODDLERS
the babies go from infants to children...this is just lazy and not realistic at all. You should not need a Expansion Pack to see this stage of life. Its bad enough that the pregnancies are short with no options to extend for sims with a longer life span. Pregnancies should match your sims life span.
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENTS
the teens being the same height as adults is dumb and lazy. Every Sim in the Sims 4 world is the same height and thats annoying (this should be an advanced feature to take a step up from The Sims 3).
COMMUNITY LOTS
where are the hospitals and beaches??? In Sims 3 you didn't need an Expansion Pack to get these lots and interact on these lots. I purchased the Get To Work Expansion Pack expecting it would come with the lots advertised but I still don't see a hospital or police station (nothing but retail stores).
SIMS IN THE SIMS 4 AREN'T AS AWARE OF OBJECTS Or SIMS WHEN COMPLETING A TASK....
An Example;) My sim went to sit down while drinking and sat directly in another sim. 2). My sim was standing in front of the refrigerator getting something out and another sims came up from behind and went through my sim to get something out the refrigerator "ANNOYING". The Sims 4 creators really need to fix this. It happens a lot*
THE CAMERA CONTROLS SUCK FOR SIMS 4
You should be able to tilt, go back, go forth, and rotate the camera all from the mouse like Sims 3...even though it has an option to use the Sims 3 camera (It still doesn't work like the Sims 3 Camera) you have to use the keyboard to tilt. "I REALLY HATE THE CAMERA CONTROLS".
These reasons are why I say Sims 4 shouldn't be called Sims 4 it really should be called Sims 2...because it took a major step down as far as game play/and the plum loading screen for everything.
BTW
Sometimes the loading music doesn't even stop and I have to play with the annoying background music or start the game all over again. This plum
Loading to go across the street: This was done in Sims 2 also, but is definitely a step down from Sims 3.
No toddlers: Definitely a disappointment compared to Sims 2 and Sims 3, and widely complained about. At this point, I don't even know if they CAN add them to Sims 4. Then again, if they can add pets, they should be able to add toddlers. Will we get both at the same time??
Height adjustments: This was done so that teens could use the same animations and clothes as adults, for the most part, and other animations could be added to the game instead of having to create completely new animations for teens. Still, although some teens are the height of adults IRL, there should be some better way of telling Sims teens apart from Sims adults - give them more childish faces or something. That is what InTeenimator for Sims 1 did, though it did it poorly - literally using child heads on adult bodies.
Community Lots: There are no beaches in Sims 4 yet, sadly, though I hope they add this in an upcoming game pack or expansion pack. Get to Work did indeed come with a hospital, science lab and police station, but only Sims in the applicable active careers can visit those lots, with the reported exception of Sims in labor being able to visit a hospital (I haven't verified Sims in labor for myself in my game yet, but I have tried out all the active careers).
Sims 4 Sims aren't as Aware: This needs to be reported as glitch when it happens, and hopefully they will fix some of these issues in future patches. Mods can fix some of this, but they need to be removed and manually updated by the player every time the game is patched or a new EP/GP/SP is installed.
Music Glitch: Usually if I have my Sim in a household with this music glitch travel to another lot, the music syncs up and the duplicate music stops playing once I reach the lot they travelled to. This problem mostly happens to me on first loading a Sim household I have just rotated to.
