Sims 5 base world(s)

I think that would be interesting but I am desperate to have an open world system like we had in 3. I actually just started playing with it again and I forgot how much more immersive it was. I could even see if they went in your direction how each district would be open world but the others would have to load. I just want to be able to visit neighbors and other buildings without having a loading screen for everywhere I go.

I'm hoping sims 5 will have more lots. I know the Sims 4 worlds are all "connected" but they still just seem small. But I in no way expect as many lots as possible in Sims 3. If Sims 3 had 100-150 lots possible and Sims 4 is more like 15-25 I'm hoping for a good 30-40 lots in Sims 5 worlds. I'd be surprised if it was more than that. I do hope they have neighborhoods again of 5-10 lots each, and the neighborhoods are open. I don't expect we'll have completely open worlds again.

Maybe open world sections, town area, suberb area, country area, and you could go anywhere in these sections. But sims 3 needed a bigger engine, it couldn't hold enough.

I'm really hoping TS5 will be 100% open world. The problem with TS3 was that it wasn't 64-bit. It was only 32-bit and therefore could only use 2gb of RAM. Even if it was extended, it can only access 3gb.

I'm pretty sure though that TS5 will be 64-bit so it would be very capable of running a 100% open world better than TS3 can.

I never played TS3, but in large part it's also going to depend on what sort of texture, model, and lighting upgrades TS5 includes. Higher quality textures and higher density meshes will put more of a strain on the system, even at 64-bit. I don't expect they'll go too high, because it is a video game and they don't need to go photo-real (and probably shouldn't) But it will be a factor.

From what I've seen, as long as going open neighborhood or Open world allows for multiple worlds that can be visited as easily as they are in TS4 (so no mods fiddling with code) and that aren't horribly empty - Windenberg already feels pretty empty even now unless you're actually in the active venue - I wouldn't have a problem with it. I think open neighborhoods are more likely than open worlds, which seems to be a nice "middle of the road" between the two.

I'd rather it be like TS4, where they can go to any world they choose. TS3 was frustrating, being stuck in one world.

How do you think the worlds in the Sims 5 will work
Personally I think we will have 1 world at launch but this will be BIG and cut up into districts so you will have downtown That will have clubs bars and apartments an inner city upscale living District and a Suburban district with mid sized homes and some small food or comic book shops this will all be connected by a bus/subway system with transport hubs but as soon as you get on the train you get a loaded screen this will be to give us more alive worlds we will also have a national park for walks and stuff (camping comes in a full EP this time).

That’s how I see the worlds working what do you think?

I hope it comes with a beach and a large waterfall like Stoney Falls in TS3.

I don't get the rabbit holes thing about sims 3... we had libraries, museums, parks, coffe shops, laundry store, tatoo stores, beauty saloons, clubs, consignement stores, beaches, ... and soooo much more that weren't rabbit holes. We did have some places that were rabbit holes but you could interact. And then there were the career locations that were rabbit holes, but so are in 4... anyway i like to see my sims get the car and drive all the way through there. And then i can catch a coworker after work right in front of their job place and go hang with him anywhere...

They should be open worlds like in TS3 but even more advanced.

I would also like a built in CAW type so you can make changes and edits as you want. You should be able to chose your own lot sizes and places them where you want as well. This way players don't have to keep waiting for certain types of worlds to be released and can make changes as and when they want :smile:

What I think, since you asked, is the world will be a multiplayer server world. Saved to the cloud and every changing when you load it. Now prove me wrong Maxis.

No, all those things came later. The open venues were only the library and the museum, and a park. Open venues had to be handled later in LN, not before.
