What are you looking most forward to?

Since Seasons I’m quite content with gameplay, but I do want more locations.

I want to see them explore less surburban areas for now. Would love to see an alpine world by a lake. Or full countryside in a valley with amazing sunsets.

I eventually want a surban area that’s quite straight forward, but the Sims 4 graphics work so much better with nature than they do with fake buildings.

I wish I could look forward to gameplay stuff and packs but I don't. I wish so hard for them to start fixing major limitations in the engine to get rid of simulation lag and maybe create a dx12 wrapper to enable the game to use more CPU cores because that would get rid of fps drops and possibly the simulation lag as well.

I desperately want an active singer career again. I want it so badly, I'm using mods to help simulate it. I'm very glad that through OR and CL our Sims now can sing, that it is a skill they can work on. Just making money at it and performing would be an asset. I do realize that many don't like any form of celebrity and I do agree that how it was handled in Sims3 was strange. While it is true that somebody who befriends a celebrity might get the limelight shone upon them, that doesn't necessitate their legitimate stardom by itself. I think it should be more tightly restrained, should they bring it back to go with the Entertainment Field. (I would also like to see acting and modeling along with the singer career.) And why shouldn't a Chef who has risen to the top of their field get recognition, say a TV show? Entertainers should accumulate recognition as they rise in their field. They should be stopped for autographs. Perhaps, they could even be chased by over-the-top fans with an option to either run, or call and be picked up by their 'manager'. I was nine years old when the Beatles hit America. I love their first movie, "A Hard Days' Night". Fans chased these guys everywhere. If they caught up with them, the fans would try ripping at their clothing to have a 'piece' of them. They raided their hotel rooms for a towel or sheet or something used by these four guys. It was crazy-insane and I was too young to even get to that point of zaniness, so I guess I'd like a chance to live it vicariously, as in a game. Safe and sound. ;)

While I do love me some new content, right now I wish for the base game to be fleshed out. That way, I'll enjoy all the extra content much more because the game will be great on its own.


As for packs, I love new ways to play the game. It expands our options and makes the game more vibrant. I think adding many cultures and worlds with appropriate activities makes this easier.

Magic of sorts. Not to be confused with witches.

I very much would like to see EA upgrade and improve the foundation of the game.

I love new upgrades (toddlers!!!), new life states (vampires!!!), and new gameplay. :smile:

I’m waiting for ocean swimming and Mermaids, so... upgrades, new gameplay, and life states? Updated babies as well (hopefully, please??? :open_mouth: ).

Ooh! And I would love for Education and Daycare careers to come back as well! :smile:

And sports and sewing (like Sims 2 Free Time hobbies stuff), too! :blush:

I want so much of the above... so... ugh... hard to choose one on the poll. I guess upgrades is one I really get excited for. (Babies, ocean swimming, and new NPCs, please?)

I want more small animals like birds, reptiles, and bunnies.

More Gameplay Objects for me. We still don't have cars,photobooths,pool slides,pool waterfalls,vibrating heart beds and a lot more.

A frank and honest admission that they messed up, that the engine (& therefore the game) is hopelessly irrepable, and that they will build from scratch a proper replacement. This would ideally be based on TS2 (the version that actually works) with appropriate revisions to reflect the advances in gaming technology in the years since its release and bringing in such features of TS3/4 that are actually viable. Am not familiar with TS3, but useful things from 4 might include the basement system, ability to move/adjust houses/rooms, and the semi-open world. Since integrity is not EA's strong suit I don't expect this, but it would be a refreshing change.
