EA please stop locking event aspirations/traits/objects after event is over.
Feel free to add your comment as to why your agree or disagree. I'd greatly appreciate it if we could all be nice. This is just the way it's always been but I think we need to voice the need for change. This is my biggest reason why. The event I'm speaking about.... below pictures, is why... Kindness Ambassador (Reward Trait) – Kindness Ambassadors have stronger friendships and fewer Negative emotions. and unlock the “Challenge to be Kind” interaction to use on other Sims? Why? I did this challenge a loooooong time ago and lost literally everything because the EA HELP people back then said my game, which only had a few CC items in it, was 100% corrupted because of cc and with their guidance and help deleted everything Sims 4 off my tower and reloaded everything just as though I had bought everything that day! There were both positive and negative consequence's but losing this aspiration and trait was and still is, the biggest negative one for me. That was the day I vowed to never ever use CC (I have never used mod's) ever again; I have not! I hear encouragement to use cc & mod when I hear - "let us help you prevent issues with your mod's and cc before an update and then say in the same breath - we do not support, endorse or oversee cc or mod. I have seen changes made to the base game to accommodate the use of cc and mod, or at least that's what I perceived was happening. The only viable and the easiest way to avoid this particular issue would be to stop locking up access to these event aspirations/traits/objects. If it's free... it should be free to everyone, always. Otherwise, it's not really free is it?
More than 2 fridges
Hi, I’ve seen this issues in past forums and it says it’s been solved by the response of “delete your extra fridges”. Can you just not limit how many fridges we have on our lots? That would make more sense. Some people have extravagant builds and want to have multiple levels or living spaces with multiple fridges throughout because if you have a mansion, it’s easier to walk to the closest mini fridge or a small kitchen to eat unless you teleport everywhere. The solution would be to allow us the use of more fridges. Is there a reason why we can’t have more fridges? Why is there a limit on how many we can have? Thank you!
Ghost children
Ghost sim pregnancy It would be cool if a ghost sim or just a sim would be able to have children with each other if the ghost got pregnant u would see a ball of light in the baby bump and when born It would be born as a wisp u can level up the wisp and help them be born again threw a sim Sim if pregnant by ghost And if a sim got pregnant by a ghost u would see like a light glow from the baby bump and have little animations like the light leaving the belly in the same freaking out the sim then it goes back in the belly Baby or children ghost sims When the baby ghost is born the baby is still alive and we'll have a little bit of a ghost abilities nothing for us to use though like when the baby throws a tantrum it'll make the electricity of the house start going crazy or if it's playing with blocks it can make the blocks levitate in the air but once the child starts getting older he will start losing his ghost abilities and once he hits that young adult age he has to choose to be sim or a ghost Let me know what u guys think
Swimming speed needs tuning...
I think after Adventure Awaits EP skilled sims do speed up quite a bit in the pool. That is fine for top skilled sims, but right now an elderly female with fitness skills of 6 is swimming sooooo fast that it just looks a bit silly. She reminds me of an insect trying desperately to find a way out, constantly hitting the edges. She is too old to swim this speedy, besides she is "only" skilled 6 - what will her speed be when she is at 9...? I think it should require a higher skill level to swim this speedy. I'm not sure how many speed levels there are, maybe they all should just be moved a couple lvls up? About elders, I think they should drop a couple speed levels due to age alone, regardless of skill. My elderly female looks more speedy than a natural trained teenager would be... Not saying that a top fitness skilled elder can't be speedy, but slowing down a bit would still be speedy. It should require top skills, or maybe even skilled elders should slow down a bit in general. When in the pool, after AA EP I notice that many more sims are entering the pool when I arrive a lot. They often are in the exact same posoition, about to enter the pool, doing exact same animations. I takes a while before I can see how many they are. I wish the pool was slightly less attractive. It feels weird that 5 sims are entering from the same spot when there are plenty of other things to do on a huge lot. I suspect it was programmed in because of the new diving boards and pool upgrade in general, I hope it won't last. At least it's better than sims always grilling food when entering a lot...
Game Pack Idea!
I would LOVE to see an integration of collectible plushies in the Sims4. Collectibles are often times repetitive and to some, an eye sore. I have scoured the interwebs for cute plushies CC but its lacking greatly. It'd be so fun to work toward some cute plushies of different themes (i.e., soft, pastel, holiday themes, dark themes, cottage, etc.) that we can add to personalize our Sims bedroom or house!
Lock Skill Gain Progress Type Feature
I use Lock Skill Gain Progress by TriplisSims to make the game (IMHO) playable. This allows me to have my Sims unique and stops from unwanted skill gain (like comedy, mischief, etc.) Before this mod, I would get so frustrated when my Sims autonomously do interactions they disliked like comedy, mischief, etc. and they'd gain the skill—that I'd stop playing. This honestly saved my sanity for Sims 4 (or I couldn't play), but it looks like it is no longer maintained, and I think it should be a base game feature. Prevent skill gain from select/unwanted skills. Lock skill gain for select skills to keep Sims at the desired level. Keep Sims unique/different from one another. edit: if possible Remove locked skills from pie menu (for example if Singing is "locked" at lvl 0/null from skill gain, when you select your Sim you will not get the Practice Singing option). Or if I lock/no learn Natural Living Skill, none of those interactions show up. Stop Sims from using items that would gain locked skills (at lvl 0/null) autonomously (excluding cooking).Thank you EA
I don't think you hear this enough, but thank you for creating such an endearing game. I spend many lovely hours here and I believe that your expansions add creative elements. I understand that you have a board and shareholders to answer to, and what you do keeps the game going. Considering the investment of time and funds I have put into Sims 4 i am glad you are not doing sims 5. I appreciate your frequent updates as you attempt to sort out the code. I have been playing the sims since the day of the sims release so long ago. Thank you for providing a quarter of a century of fun, creative and enjoyable content. Try not to let the negative stuff get you down there are more like me that enjoy the sims for what it is and want you to continue.
The Flea Market Desperately Needs an Update!
If I'm not mistaken, the Flea Market in San Myshuno hasn't been updated since the expansion's release (9 years ago!), which is really disappointing because over time the potential of this festival has been wasted. Until recently, I used a mod that added furniture from later expansions to the street vendors' inventory, and it was wonderful! But now I've decided to stop using that mod, and all the magic of visiting the flea market has simply vanished! I'm tired of constantly seeing the same furniture that was released 10 years ago. I dream of being able to discover items at the flea market that I normally overlook in build mode - items that might inspire me to start using them. The game has quite a few mechanics that the developers have abandoned, but I feel particularly sad about the flea market.
