Vacation homes: "not this time..."

Has anyone noticed how the guru (in the latest livestream) said that vacation homes weren't coming in this ep... he said ..."not this time..."

I think (at least i wish) that they're coming some day :)
  • I hope so, too, but I am not going to hang on his words too much. Rental lots are a nice option to make, but I am really not going to use them that much because I would prefer to purchase a vacation residence.

    Anyway, even without a patch, there is a theoretical vacation centric pack they could be working on with the hotel/resort feature. Vacation homes would fit perfectly with the pack or pack's patch. Not to mention this is supposed to be "another strong year for the Sims 4" so they have to be selling us something.

    By that it sounds like their planning them for the future.
  • I do believe we are getting them! Owning a second home was in one of the surveys too.
    Me personally I don't know what I would even do with one ?
  • I read the patch notes and it says you can rent a home in any world. Isn't that the same as going on vacation in any world? I know it's not the same as owning a vacation home, but I don't see much difference if you can just rent it and rent it again etc. Or stay there for weeks or whatever.

    Yeah we can pretend it to be a vacation home. But what i would love is to have a sim be the king of a real estate empire ?

    pretend?! C'mon! Good grief, where are the expectations? Gone? No. Vacation homes offer so much more flexibility than simply renting over and over...

    That doesn't really add anything unless the owner of the holiday home can rent it out to other sims (for income) when they're not using it.

    Rather than have a vacation home, I would rather be able to live (only home) in vacation worlds,
