Wonder what it could be?! : http://simscommunity.info/2018/08/17/the-sims-4-is-getting-a-mysterious-new-feature-soon/

Cool. I wouldn't speculate too much about it though, don't want to hype it too much.

I hope it's stairs! They have been talking a lot about them in their tweets. I would love some different types of stairs for building.

I really wish they wouldn’t do this. They claim they want to be more transparent and open and honest with fans but yet they persist on teasing with vague statements. It’s the online equivalent of putting a few cats among the pigeons and watching the feathers fly. Once the hype train starts rolling full steam ahead, they are then quick to put the breaks on it by saying: “But don’t get hyped!” I mean come on, with that referenced tweet, what do they expect? They certainly don’t want people reading it and going: “meh” It’s a rather bizarre communication strategy. Talk of the game is becoming a focus rather than the game itself. They can’t have it both ways. Be open and transparent like many other game companies are with future content or say nothing until you can reveal. Because they cannot complain when fans get upset with their current strategy of communication. Practise what you preach.

I really don't want to get too hyped for this one; it happens all too often that after what seems to be a great content patch comes the not-so-great ones after it. They aren't even very specific about it either; it could be literally anything. It also seems like they're focusing more on giving us free content while we're waiting on the next pack for purchase.

We are getting a new feature in "NEAR FUTURE"!

I wasn't able to watch the live stream. So i watched it on twitch after the fact. And at the end when Grant said he had an announcement it was cut off.

He was trolling. He has done that before

As long as they update something other than the gallery, I'll be pleased.

Not that big of a deal IMO, really.

Grant literally said like a month ago that CASt is not going to happen. We can still dream for the future, but Sims 4 will retain its horrible swatch setup for the rest of its development.

Isn’t it hilarious! Almost as funny as watching a cat ride a roomba, or talking to your toilet! Grant sure cracks me up. :joy:

I’m sure I read a tweet a few weeks back saying that they’d need to research how sims would walk up/down spiral stairs- maybe they’re finally getting on that :p

What I want:
A memory system, new traits, more aspirations for kids, and mostly, a better integration between older packs' or base game content and features that were brought with newer packs.

With the latter I mostly mean the Parenthood interactions but I'm sure there are other examples I can't think of right now. Like, I would love it if I could influence / force my sim kids to take care of the pets (prompting them to give them whatever they currently need - food, a bath, a walk), hark the leaves, go play on the swing, put presents under the Christmas tree, stuff like that. I wish they would keep adding to this the way they have been adding to clubs.

What I think it is (not that I would mind these things, I just want them less):
More updates to the gallery (after all, they have already confirmed these are coming) like the ability to add our own photos in the gallery, maybe something to do with love (online dating or a deeper attraction system maybe), or something for builders. Okay that last one, I do hope is coming for them eventually :)

...2 years left of this, hopefully.
