The New CAS Story Mode
The New CAS Story Mode is interesting, I don't hate it, but I think it NEEDS improvements. First and foremost change CAS to the way it was when we open it. Like, is this really necessary? https:...

I actually find this CAS story mode very frustrating for the fact that the questionnaire takes any control you'd like out of the picture for the moment. some characters i created, a family called "Al Firaqqi"; they are all story mode generated and hit the mark about 80% of what i'd like and only one character "Rihel" she hit 100% of what i wanted for her even if the traits were a bit out of order.
If i knew which questions triggers the right aspirations and traits, it would be a lot less annoying. Of course once the list is out there, the questionannaire becomes useless as a random element, so its value is short lived. I'd like to say it would of been a good feature, but i just don't have the patience for doing the questionnaire 50+ times trying to find the right aspirations and traits for something that would only take a few minutes outside story mode with one, set the person to teenager, get A grades and you'll end up in the same position as the story character when the teen reaches YA (assuming the story character start with a standard § count).
Then there is the lack of teenager, child and toddler story modes, to give them a boost up early in their young lives.
After getting an answer on EA Answers HQ from someone in regards to not be able to use an already saved household before the patch, that they can't get storymode. At this point story mode isn't something i can honestly say is really that great to have as its use is limited unfortunately.
I hope it gets some improvements, i really do. I only started playing the sims through TS4 and almost have 400 hours into it already (lost my life at the same time! :tongue: ), and i haven't met anything some annoying as this feature.
