I'll link this to gurus on Twitter. What I Want To SeeHow the tunnel of love worksThe prom and prom proposalsThe World and the Townies who live in Copperdale The amusement park with Sims getting on the ferris wheel, taking pics in the photobooths and going thru the haunted house. I especially want to see the amusement park at night.Buy/Build but only briefly as I'm more interested in gameplay.The school and activities in the halls.Sims swimming off of the pier. CheerleadingI want to see Sims using the bleachers but it looks like their just decor unfortunately.

I want to know if there's high school reunions for adults and elders. I want to know if there's high school yearbooks and if they can be signed by students and teachers. I wonder if our students can run around the track. I wonder if there's any new gym equipment. It would be nice to see some new playground equipment or even exercise equipment like pull-up bars in places we can't build.

I want to see how the school system works how students are chosen to attend if by player or at random also how classrooms work "SnaveXs;c-18144754" wrote:I wonder if our students can run around the track.That's a good question seeing as they made it look like you can run on the track at 0:58 on the video but we all know how staged those are.

If it is possible to build a High School on any lot, e.g is it a lot trait or is it a locked lot only available in Copperdale?How to travel to the pier in a convenient wayRound walls???How shaving works - is it just the face or other parts? Will hair grow autonomously so you have to shave, or is it just a flavor action that doesn't really affect anything?

I want to see how classes and clubs work before i decide to buy this pack. I have to know if the gameplay related to them would be fun for me or not. I love the cas and build/buy for this pack, and the world seems to be nice, but the gameplay would be the ultimate deciding factor.

How the active classrooms gameplay is. Are we just going to be staring at the board for an hour or can my kids talk to their friends and cut up during class time?This new Plopsy type Clothing App they got going on. Are we just uploading outfits to it and sims buy it? Shouldn’t we revert back to having to buy the additional clothing slots then? If not, someone point me to a mod.New social Media feature. I’m assuming it would be random stuff like phone calls and we can do reactions to it but how would it work if your sim posted one.What are the new traits and aspirations that are coming with this pack? Popular kid in school. I’m assuming something to do with the new trendsetting and streaming careers they mentioned but I’m not sure how that’s going to differ from the stylist career and influencer career we have Unless it’s expanding on it. Also, it sounds like teens can have these as careers now so is it only going to be part time or are they allowed to be freelancers now?AND I WANT TO KNOW IF THOSE SHELLS ARE APARTMENTS! Please let them be apartments.

What are you hoping to see in the HSY Livestream?

@Amapola76 I love little time wasters. I've lost track of how many times I've had a sim stuck with nothing to really do for that last 30 minutes or so before leaving for something. I never thought about getting my ladies a soccer ball they could mess round with. Almost all my sims are active so it would fit for them. I've been a little disappointed with the "cook together" thing. It's always the other sim just comes over and talks to the cook. I thought it would be something like mentoring, or both of them work together, but there really isn't that much to do in preparing a meal if I'm honest. The idea of activities with interaction between parents and their kids is long overdue. This feels like a golden opportunity to add some.

@catloverplayer Werewolves was my first livestream, so I'm not sure what to expect from this one. I'm hoping that since it's an EP it's not going to be as short as Werewolves. I know they didn't have time in that one to really dive into CAS and BB. Just going through the trailer it looks like there is going to be lots of new BB items to go nuts over so I hope they do more than spend a couple of minutes on it. I am a CAS queen, but I also build so giving both plenty of exposure would be very welcome.

If your sims aren't cooking together then something is blocking one of the counters. One of them needs to be clear of objects so the other sim can cook. I don't have any issues with this.

Yes, you need an empty counter space for each sim who's taking part in the cooking, otherwise the other sim will just stand around and talk to them.

Yes, and given that this pack is teen-focused, more interactions between older and younger siblings would also be great. It would be so cute to show a teen sibling showing the younger sibs how to throw a football, do a cheer routine, etc.

Some of my favorite memories from TS2, in particular, are the oldest child in the family teaching their toddler sibling how to talk, the younger kids how to play soccer, etc. I've never tried to do a one-to-one comparison to TS2 or TS3, but it definitely feels like we have less options for those types of interactions. It seems like the only things they can really do now are watch tv together, or maybe throw water balloons during the summer. (Even for that, the water balloon fights seem to end after just a few seconds, compared to older versions of the game. I remember in TS2 in particular, I would always have siblings build their relationship with a water balloon fight on the first day, because after just one interaction, they were well into the green.)

I do tend to over decorate in my sims kitchens.?‍♀️ I also forget sometimes with cc it can be something as innocent as a wall mounted knife rack that causes a conflict. Thanks for the reminder.

@Amapola76 I often feel like I missed out on something special because I didn't find the Sims until TS3.?

We can have parents and kids use the water slide together. Parents can help the kids with their homework. Swim together if you form a group, but that doesn't last very long until someone decides to go do something else, like 5 seconds later. I'm having a hard time coming up with anything else of note.

But I also want to see how the after-school activities work. Please tell me Football isn't as bad as soccer. I'm not expecting fully-animated games or anything, but I want more than that.

Dragons playing football
Dragons as cheerleaders
Dragons teaching whatever the subjects are
Dragons attacking amusement park

Hopefully new aspirations that don't require becoming an adult or taking a certain job path. I especially hope for a new knowledge aspiration for teens.

I'm hoping to see that the pack functions as it should. I still haven't got over the state they released my wedding stories and my confidence in them to release products that are tested and working as intended has been severely shaken.
