What are your Sims 4 University Expectations?

The only thing I would be interested in is new active careers, frat, sororities, and more sports. Hopefully a pool table...

well, it's sims 4 so i'm not expecting much. i hope we get fun activities like in sims 2 but then again it's sims 4...

i honestly dont care like for real. i think get to work was cool and everything but i just dont like my sims being on active professions cos it feels repetetive and monotonous in game and real life.

i'd rather prefer it to be called 'campus living' which our sims can rent dorms, hangout at venues, join varsity and sport teams, create social groups, enjoy late night parties, spill some tea and create drama and just more woohoo and everything.

I’m afraid to be disappointed, as what I want most are customizable programmes, college possibilities and preparations for teens, a roommates system, multiple new careers (architecture!), bunk beds and way more school options for kids.

So I’m keeping it down till we know more.

Low, I'm afraid, and not because it's not seemingly the pack for me. Recent EPs haven't been great, lacking in depth and quality control. I hope the recent criticism from some well-known game changers make them take notice, since they haven't taken notice of the rest of us. I felt the comment about the poor builds in RoM being for the "lilsimmsies of the world to fix" was a slap in the face. And this is nothing against Lilsimsie, but builds should be right, not half done with excuses we're going to change them anyway. So what if we are? We're paying for a product so it should be complete and up to par. What we do with it afterwards is up to us.

So, back to Uni, or any new pack. My expectations are low until the next one does come out and we can see an improvement, and then going forward it is consistent.

I'd have to say it is pretty low. University in Sims 3 wasn't so great, however, University in Sims 2 was amazing. Sims 2 had diverse clothing options: rebel, goth, jock, prep, and socialite. There were secret societies, keg parties, and an outstanding soundtrack.

It actually had consequences in TS2 by granting extra want slots and an extra want lock if you completed particular segments, plus there were unique careers that you could only join if you had qualifications from Uni which in turn led to unique rewards you couldn't unlock through any other means. Expulsion and failure granted an extra fear slot. Consequences lasted for the rest of your Sim's life.

Considering that the young adult life stage was literally put into the series to accommodate University, I'm amazed it's taken this long to bring this pack out. Right now the young adult and adult stages just feel like the same, long state.

I'm not expecting much from it but I know I will still end up being disappointed, lol.

University in TS3 was okay-ish. I honestly just remember going to parties with my sims and getting drunk, which was fun and I do hope this will return to TS4. But I actually really liked TS2's University. I'd love for it to be something like that but I'm not holding my breath.

The only thing that I'm more excited about is being able to finally have roommates, and live in the same building as other non-playable sims. I'm sure the community will find a way to turn that into REAL apartments and not the disappointment we got with City Living.

But then again, I honestly would not be surprised if they don't even give us an actual roommate system and you'll have to go through loading screens to visit rooms on campus. Lol That would be hilariously bad.

i have high hopes that this is going to be a pack that will rival seasons...or at least i hope so. this years dlc has been meh all around so im expecting this one to be amazing. the simgurus should know by now that uni is a pack that is requested by alot of people so i just hope they set the bar high with this expansion

I hope it's not like ROM:

Replace Sages with Professors, replace Cauldrons with Desks, replace magic vendors with school supplies vendors, replace Bookshelves with... Bookshelves. A poorly built University Building with Don Lothario, Johnny Zest & Penny Pizzazz walking about in Situational University Clothing.

I prefer they add tools for University customization as opposed to building inflexible, linear mechanics, and thus, linear, inflexible gameplay.

These are things that showed up in University and University Life that aren't already in The Sims 4:

• Majors
  
• Scholarships
  
• Dorms & Greek Houses
  
• Student Unions
  
• College neighborhood
  
• Juice Keg
  
• Pool Table
  

Comparing it to other Sims 4 expansions, I feel fairly confident that we'll get most of the things on that list. That's my expectation level and would be pretty happy with just that.
