What you think we could use in the sims 5?

I sim can have an "attraction profile" similar to traits in TS3. Then their attraction to other sims could be calculated based off what they tick off from that list. They could have several turn-ons and turn-offs.

Example turn-ons:
- Redhead
- Seniors
- Family sims
- Loners
- Policemen
- Teachers
- Flirty trait
- "Nice" "Friendly" sims
- "Mean", "Hot Headed" sims
- Good sense of humour
- At least 5K money

Example turn-offs:
- Workaholic
- "Mean", "Hot Headed" sims
- Weight
- Family sims
- Snobiness
- Slobiness
- Laziness
- No sense of humour

Etc. So you could have a friendly, family-oriented sim that is attracted to flirty and fit redhead policemen, for example. If they meet a redhead, that's +1. If they meet a flirty and fit redhead, that's +3. If he's also a policeman, it's the perfect match.

@Zei, I would really like to see that kind of attraction implemented though I have no idea of how that would be coded into the game. But I like the idea of someone being attracted to a certain type of sim.

I’d love to see if there could also be an attraction towards a certain sim that can build over time. (Like Haruo towards River)

and vice versa based on whether they’re married, dating or single and what interactions they have (if they have bad interactions the attraction wanes and the desire to cheat (if married) grows unless they have the faithfulness attribute (trait) where he/she just ends up being long-suffering).

Like my own 20 year marriage to my wife in real life has grown stronger through that length of time and I’m more in love with her than when we exchanged rings (I’d have to say I was head over heels in love with her at the wedding so you can pretty much say that we’re inseparable now) and we’ve come through some pretty rough patches too.

Oh, and she happens to be a red-head...+1 ? :mrgreen:

@Nikkei_Simmer lol wut
You need to relax a bit lol ;;;

I meant that loading screens do not bother me in the slightest. I know a lot of fans hate them but I dont mind them. This is just my preference no one is taking it as law. I mean if they add open world in the next game, cheers. If they dont and its still fun ill still play. You might be taking this too personally

Personal list of things I would like to see in Sims 5:

Better tracking and routing of Sims - can we see the Sims actually manage to negotiate a route around furniture and other Sims without clipping?

Better babies - babies that aren’t burritos; have them wave their hands or feet, have them actually react to being held, have them actually respond to being fed. Have them have wants (take me for a walk, I need to go pee, hug me, cuddle me, I want Mommy, Daddy, Sister, Brother etc) - not just sticking them into a crib and be done with it.

And I swear, if I see a baby hop out of the crib and become a child because “toddlers are too difficult”...so help me, I’m going to go nuclear!

Could we see swimming in lakes? Please? Nothing beats building a cottage at a lake and having one’s kids be able to swim there.

A return of cars as well as being able to open the doors, get in and out instead of teleporting them in (in TS3).

Less mood altering effects with personal possessions. I don’t want to have a widow grieving her dead husband and then just because she goes into her collection room be ______________<—— insert descriptive adjective of choice happy. The one I was resisting putting down would have had me banned.

A more coherent moods selection. Make sure that the sims who are enemies actually hate each other and don’t behave as if one minute they like each other the next bitter enemies. Some consistency would be nice.

I want the ability to be able to tell a cohesive story by means of an open world, the ability to tell a story not restricted to lots. If my sim wants to explore the world he or she lives in, let me do that in one continuous flow. Even more so when creating videos as we video creators need to not have their narrative in some rapidly jumping lot to lot fashion but in transitions and placement shots.

I also want to see effort on the environment and the sims. Plainly put the cartoon-esque environment with Fisher Price trees and Little People style clay hair base sims gets really old, really quick.

I want to see a faithfulness trait come back where both sims refuse to cheat on the other especially if they’ve been in a great relationship. A spouse should not be inclined to cheat if their relationship meters are full and their attraction is attuned to their spouse.

I want to see aircraft in an expansion pack at some point. That’s just a personal want so ~shrug~ do with it what you will. Same with a hockey rink and pickup hockey animations.

Animation challenges:

Wet hair (stepping out of rain and out of shower or bath) should last for ten minutes sims time.

Sims caught in a downpour should look like a drowned rat and unless they like water, shouldn’t be happy about it.

Wet clothes, wet streets.

Go easy on the light bloom.

Oh...and can we..,

...get this back again?

Started in Sims 3; never got the chance to have this happen as I never had TS2

Not too dissimilar, but actually improved from the system in TS2.

When in the process of creating my first Sim in TS2; I said, "Wait a sec, even that unnamed, controversial mod doesn't even have an attraction system this good; it is perfect!". From then on out, I knew TS2 in terms of the Sims themselves, was far superior to anything later. And that being said, I've only had my copy of TS2 since Jan. I think in terms of the Sims themselves, EA should be using TS2 as the bar minimum of how the personalities of Sims are fleshed out. Not the fickle, shallow mess TS4 Sims are.

Like the title what is on your sims 5 wishlist?

Me I would love to see building and create a sim like sims 4. Have actual babies where they can do things not just sit in a crib or baby swing or baby mat and do nothing. Bunkbeds. Smaller arcade machine and be able to make an arcade (I miss that in 3) be able to build inside roofs. Maybe open world even tho it takes two million years to go into a sims 3 game maybe bring some sims 2 charm like the little cutscenes or the children running and hugging their parents when they get home or the kids running to one of their parents when they get a good mark in school just the little things like that

I love a game called Virtual Families. I would love to have random things happen "while we are away". For example, I save my game where the mom in the sims goes to and her kids are all at school. I come back it is exactly how it was when I left with the Sims. With Virtual Families, It's not the same when I come back from where I left off at a save point. The game calculates things that happen while I'm gone. It could be something like adopting a kid. It could be a promotion. It could be any number of random things. I would love to see something like that with the sims.

I would love for CAS and build mode to be taken a step further in 5. I would love spiral staircases, bunk beds too. I would love for babies to be taught to walk, have more interactions, a baby swing a tub for the baby to be bathed, a changing table. I would for us to start out with rocking chairs. I would love for elders to do more starting out. I would love for kids to do more. Play tag, innocent crush actions with their crush like playing together, eating lunch at school together. I would love for traits to actually mean something. I would love a actions to have real consequences. For example if my sim is not a player sim and cheats on their spouse having serious consequences. Have Sims occasionally Break The 4th Wall. That could be a thing for our insane sims to do. Family members being able to welcome other household members home.

I would love a game I can enjoy playing Vanilla and never feel the need for mods and CC. I want a game that is well playtested and with minimal problems. I would love to see the best from The Sims, Sims 2 Sims 3 and even Sims 4 brought in.

I agree with a lot of the above. The main thing I miss from previous sims, MAKING YOUR OWN CLOTHES COLORS/PATTERNS AND HAIR COLORS! I feel like we've come sooo far in technology, that this should automatically been input into any of the sims games that have came out so far. I feel like we shouldn't have to resort to CC/CCMODS. (However the curators of the CC are highly appreciated :wink: )
With that being said I think the sims 5 should incorporate with that a hair salon or a fashion design career choice where you would be able to do said things above :smile:

I don't know what I am doing.. I just want them to let it have a multi-player option.

- All life stages baby through elder including preteens
- Emotions no not like Sims 4 icon that tells you your Sim going through emotions but actual animations and behaviors
- Memories things that happen to our Sim should be remembered good or bad
- Wants and fears
- CAW
- Color wheel
- Cars busses and carpools
- Open world or neighbor which should be at least 8 lots.
- Well thought out retail system that does not lock you into a lot type like gym or restaurant that also has a reason to use it for things like food and clothing that should not be free and all unlocked

That wouldnt be a bad thing to add to it!
