We need to talk about the lots. Seriously!
I accepted the fact that TS4 has premade world and lots but if we can not change anything in the premade worlds, at least the lots should be made better. Especially in MWS Game Pack the lots are total...

I totally agree, the lot placements are often wayy off, being just too far from the pavements so we can’t connect them properly, and being weirdly shaped for spaces made for them.. not only that i hate all the weird prebuilt driveways! glimmerbrook and strangerville are 2 amazing neighbourhood locations, ruined by the driveways.
I nearly always resort to building in the base game maps for this reason, most of the lots are connected nicely to the pavements and roads here, so you can add your own driveways to match the vibe of the house you’re building. They also give us a decent number of blank lots all together in one neighbourhood, so we can build our own mini suburbia or street however we want. That’s why whenever people talk about all these different requested map locations and themes, I simply ask for blank suburban streets we can mould however we see fit.
I just wish they would give us one blank map where we could place our own lots like in previous sim games. A world editor seems to be off the table, but I’m sure they could give us some kind of blank slate to work with, place our own lots and maybe a couple trees or rocks in the background.. It would solve the problems for people wanting larger lots or loads of smaller ones etc.
The art team carries this game, and I think they realise this. If they didn’t build up these pretty backdrop neighbourhoods, I think it would be super obvious they aren’t really giving us much with new packs.. Either way I’m so over shell neighbourhoods at this point..
