We need another NewCrest

Worlds aren't going to be coming faster. Worlds take an entire team months to make )that's why magnolia promenade was just a single neighborhood, because of newcrest).

I don't think people understand what goes behind a sims 4 world. It's not just click and drag and you're done like previous games. Worlds are massive (and small) bits of 3d and 2d facades that are pieced together like a puzzle. Unless you are familiar with game mechanics/code, game design, and modeling. You shouldn't even consider making or editing Sims 4 worlds.

I understand perfectly the complexity of TS4 worlds, that's what makes them beautiful...
But they also make them set in stone. Every story I create in WB will look the same as another one's story, because backdrops are eternal and never change.
I can't be creative, and this sucks.
For people who don't care and just want thing ready to play (and love Happy Lands), it must be great.
For me, it just shortens the game lifespan. When I get boring with a playthrough, sometimes I like changing the setting or creating a new city. In TS4, I can't...

So all in all, I think that was a pretty bad design choice...

I used to make my own worlds in Sims 3. What I thought would be a daunting task was actually a really enjoyable experience that added a lot of depth to my gameplay, and in a way changed how I played the game.

Wish we could do this in Sims 4, but it doesn't seem likely at this point. Also given the poor upkeep they did with the CAW tool it doesn't even work with my game anymore. :/

Not only do I wish we had another Newcrest and other empty worlds, I also wish there was a way to expand the original worlds. It makes me an unhappy player to see spaces on the map where I could potentially have more lots, if there was only a way to do so. I'm used to playing huge neighborhoods in Sims 2, so the maps on Sims 4 make me feel rather confined. This old song popped into my head when I while I was reading the thread-

"Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above
Don't fence me in
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love
Don't fence me in"

At this point I would take an edit neighborhood function. Creating worlds is way above my head but editing and placing additional lots in a neighborhood is much easier.

I would like to be able to edit the off-grid areas in each world with ease and I would happily take another empty world as long as the backdrop is different to what we already have so far. Saying that, I would prefer a big world filled with new venues and houses but i will take whatever as long as there is more space as I love to customize my game.

I found newcrest relatively boring I think? I'd be happy with another destination world sometime soon because I'd like a beach and snow location as per previous games :) I did like the fact that in the sims 2 you could just create your own neighbourhood whenever you wanted, too! Although that wouldn't happen in sims 4 because theres just too much stuff to cram in there, like the pre made community parks, etc. (which I love anyway :)) x

I always saw Newcrest as an extension to Willow Creek (in my game it's a more modern district.) So if we were going down that route I would like a desert map like Oasis Springs (in my game I would love to have space for a Las Vegas strip.)
That said though I would love some sort of neighbourhood builder to be able to extend the existing worlds. Magnolia Promenade is a sorry mess with just four lots and I wish I could add a bayou swamp in Willow Creek to make it a true New Orkeans inspired world!

Yes please ! Maybe something like this too :

That would be Oasis Springs.

Yes! I really enjoy customizing Newcrest in each save and love another empty world to customize. Personally, I would love to have another world styled like Oasis Springs but with larger public areas and beach/coastline area (similiar to a TS4 version of Lucky Palms).

nah, I personally would rather have a completely new world.
I don't use Newcrest much.
I know it's because some players just want to build without removing maxis builds, but honestly, I don't really care for the maxis builds, or premades, and if for any insane reason I want them back, I'm sure there is a copy of them on the Gallery.

So bring on fresh new worlds.

Am I the only one who would have liked Planet Sixam as a world? XD

I really with they made Sixam a playable world like they did with China/France/Egypt in WA...I'd love being able to live in an all alien town where my alien sims are free from constant embarrassment from being found out lol
