Why so many loading screens? I understand that people want conrtol several families at the same time and in a same world with no stupid parallel worlds. I hate Sims 3 because of this parallel worlds nonsense but you could keep open world at least to a certain degree. Instead created two world Willow Creek and Oasis Springs that both just lack in number of private lots and have many separate public buildings like gym and bar (many loading screens and almost no place for your familiys) you need TO CREATE WORLD THAT HAVE ONE HUGE PULIC LOT, LARGE ENOUGH THAT CAN CONTAIN ALL PUBLIC SPACES LIKE GYM, PARK, BAR ETC… ALL ON ONE SINGLE LOT. THUS YOU GAIN SOME SORT OF OPEN WORLD AND KEEP CIRCULAR GAMEPLAY WITH SEVERAL FAMILIES WITHOUT BASIC ENGINE CHANGES and with significantly reducing the number of loading screens on the other hand you can have Willow Creek and Oasis Springs purley as area with homes for sims and familiys and without lack of spaces for familiys. When EP come you just offer new world with new buildings or just simply allow players to build new building or better both.
I will not buy game until toddlers, familiy tree and appropriate emotional responses to death will not be in the game and with NO BUGS. Although I love option for my Sims to cheat (like in sims2) and I am completely in love with the idea of friends with benefits I also wish to see jealousy in my married sim when she/he is deceived in front of here/him own eyes.
Sorry for my poor English and grammar but English is not my native language.
