The mobile part makes me scared I don't want sims five to be like sims mobile.
I really hope sims five is good.
Why I don't like the idea cross platform.The game is still not being design as a mobile game, but a PC one.
its gonna hurt the game to be on mobile- I’m open minded at this point after watching the stream, but I still have some concerns about whether or not offline will be fully supported or if it’s going to be forced to play second to multiplayer. Also the more tech savvy simmers saying that multiplatform connectivity is going drag down the experience for PC and Mac players raises some questions and concerns. But it’s all waiting, watching, and speculating. I’ll keep on enjoying what I have in the here and now.
- At the moment I just feel indifferent. Build mode isn't something that I care about at all, I need to see how the sims look, the graphics/art style, what the gameplay's like, if it's open world, etc before I can start to get excited
- Chicklet453683 years agoSeasoned AceNow that it's been officially announced and I've had a day to mull it over, I'm just mehhhh about it.
I mean I'm excited and want to learn more like RIGHT NOW!! (because I've been wanting it to come for a long time). But it's still so sooo soooooo far away until it's released, I just don't want to keep thinking about it because it will make the wait seem that much longer.
And, we already know that they give very little info and won't be as transparent at updating the fans as often as some other game devs do (even though they said they'd update us, we've been told that many, many times in the past about things with TS4 and never heard another peep out of them), so I personally think we'll hear very little, which will just make the wait seem even more eternal.
I'm super happy about the customization aspect, which is one of the things that was a "must have for me to purchase".
I do hope they are upfront and forthcoming on what is NOT going to be in the game so that fans can accept it and get over their anger before it's released.
Such as:- If there's not going to be an open-world, then state that!
- If it's going to be set up exactly like TS4 and you have to hit a loading screen when you want to enter a new lot ... state that!
- If worlds won't be customizable/modifiable by simmers .... state that!
- If the worlds are going to be teeny, tiny again with a lot of fake backdrops taking up all of the real estate space .... then state that!
- If simmers won't be able to create multi-functional lots .... state that!
- If simmers won't be able to build their own apartment type lots in any world they want .... state that!
Those are all deal breakers for me, so I'd rather know upfront that these things won't be part of the game, because this will help determine if I'm buying it or not. I don't want to do the same thing I did with TS4 and thought for sure those things would eventually be added. - If there's not going to be an open-world, then state that!
- I'm not sure how I feel. I hope it is well executed in the end. I hope we have the option of single and multiplayer. I hope I can play without mods as I do with Sims 3 and when I played Sims 1 and Sims 2. Sims 4 is the only game in the entire franchise I play heavily modded. As much as I like the mods and CC I would rather play and enjoy any of the Sims games unmodded. I really hope that is the case with Sims 5 when it finally is released.
- Mannanna3 years agoRising AceA couple of years ago I would have been super hyped about a new game but now I don't know. Hearing that it will be a game playable on mobile sounds limited to me. I know the new phones have more GB's than my first computer I played Sims1 on, but it makes it sound even more like a "Doll house" game. Where's the challenge and surprises? Sims4 is bad enough in that aspect.
I like what I saw of the build mode, patterns, colors etc. and not being forced to put items in a grid but that is already something we can do with simple cheats - so not much new there.
I will have to know more to become excited. Can we customize our open world, no background unusable buildings, will the Sims have personality? If all that will be true I will be excited.

It makes me want to cry for the old games. `
Why? ? We only saw a five minute presentation yesterday.
Why not? Why can't I? What is different this time?
I read "cross platforms" and I remember how TS4 started.
Agreed. Unless the executables are vastly different across the platforms, then cross platform is basically a synonym for lightweight simulation.- Anonymous3 years agoSo, we saw build mode. That's not exactly surprising. I think Sims 1 even started dev as an architectural simulator. I think that's typically the first mode that's worked on.
I'm really only interested in live mode though. - MrMuffinTot3 years agoSeasoned HotshotSims 4 is my very first sims game and my very first EA game. EA the company has left me with such a terrible gaming experience that I don't see how they won't make the new game into a terrible gaming experience too? What in management will be changing to ensure we get a quality gaming experience? Nothing from what I saw.
- LadyKare643 years agoNew TravelerFor a person who constantly fights to match my decor with the wall paper or flooring, this color wheel will be great! Also the control of the tiniest objects will be so helpful, my builds are very detailed. I miss the fact that cannot add more build lots like the original games, I run out of build lots often. Like Magnolia Promenade, one build lot, what's with that? It is just the waste of a world.
In order for me to build more, I often have to create another new world because I run out of building lots. I am excited to see and do more. I am glad they are bringing some of the older things back. Too bad they couldn't just keep adding, without taking away.
I hope this helps me make my builds better, since I Love to share them.
Thank you
