The Best Build Mode
As the title says... I much prefer the Sims 4's Build Mode compared to the other Sims games. o:)

I can not agree TS4 has the best build mode. Because frankly there are too many steps you have to do to put a roof on building. You have to pick a flat roof box before you can even finish a building. That is not necessary in TS2. Also, double walls. If you don't watch what you are doing sometimes you can have inside double walls. I saw this mistake often on the gallery after I downloaded some builds. When you drag a box in TS2, (yes it has that feature) to build a room it auto becomes part of an existing wall, not a separate box such as in TS4. Therefore, causing double inside/inner walls which does cause lag in TS4. Bet some don't know that.
I can't lawd any build system that doesn't allow me to just extend a roof without having to add another flat roof box etc. When in TS2 I can just extend it with one floor tile. I can not lawd a build system that doesn't allow for dug out basements, just no. The black abyss is a big fat no.
I can't lawd a build system that doesn't allow me to terraform all the way up to the side of a building without a huge gap, no. Ponds? dig water? TS4 is so simplistic I'm not surprised many like it.
That's not even a tenth of what I don't like about TS4's build mode, but I did enjoy different wall sizes, but annoyed those all had to be used per floor level. boo.
I didn't mention TS3 because it has the same type build system as in TS2 so no, TS4 is not the best just because it's the most simplistic. You can't see out a basement window just below street level...what kind of build system is that. Also, I particularly disliked the build/buy combination because often it was like I'm trying to pick up this chair, no, stop it, I'm not trying to strech the room. :s Annoying.
Don't even get me started about wanting to just remove a few tile upstairs around a staircase, only to see the entire floor deleted.... what the heck type system is that. First you have to section that off with walls then delete...too many extra steps taken, so no , it's not all that improved is it when I can just click the floor tile I want removed in TS2 and TS3.
Balconies, need boxes, boo, when a few floor tile extend in TS2 then put a rail around it, done. New doesn't mean easier and or better. How many years did we wait to remove foundations on the same lot? How is that better? lol It's so simplistic in some ways (as in less features) it's like Build A Lot games...silly, simple.
