[Speculation] A break to fix ?
Hi, Do you think Maxis will take a break in order to fix the game ? Or will they focus on the development of a new version of The Sims 4 designed to work with the other projects (Project Rene, The Sims Hub multiplayer features and in-game marketplace, The Sims movie, ... ) ? We also know a rebranding of the game is planned. What do you think ?
Elementary school and middle school game pack
So I’ve been thinking what if the Sims kids can go to school like elementary and preteens sims can go to middle school so elementary kids can go to classes in person and middle school go to classes in person too just like in high school years expression pack add events like school holiday dances, parties, and more so What do you guys think do you think that is a good idea?
(Most) occults keep gaining points but we cant spend them
I have a vampire, grand master. Several (actual) years old by now. Takes 156 ability points to unlock all abilities. Got over 100 vampire points left right now after unlocking most abilities I wanted. I have a fairy, radiant level. It takes 28 ability points to unlock all abilities. I spent 25 ability points to unlock what I wanted but already got 55... 56 points left. Gained another point while writing this. I have a spellcaster, virtuoso. It takes 25 ability points to unlock all abilities. 4 talent points left, one ability not taken. And they are still gaining more. Especially fairies. The point gain is insane! The spellcaster has been a occult for months and the fairy since release of the pack but the leftover ability points are totally out of balance. It took my fairy less than two months to gain half the points my vampire gained over a much longer time and already gained more than ten times the amount of my spellcaster. I have werewolves, apex'es, and they can convert overflowing ability points into satisfaction points. Spellcasters too. Why cant all occults have something like this? Why is there no cap for the other occults because they cant use points after maxing out the occult abilites? The experience gain is eating game resources too. The more occults the more resources on all maxed out occults. They dont all have to be the same. But some consistancy is really not too much to ask for when it comes to expansion packs.
Realm of Magic
I almost forgot. I beggggg EA to refresh Realm of Magic. With all the fun DLC that was added afterwards, there are so many more spells and interactivity to implement. I always felt like witches out of all the occults deserved the expansion pack title to begin with. Would be fun if my witch can control the weather, turn sims into any occults... etc. Just adding more cross pack compatibility with all the DLC basically. I will say the world of Realm of Magic could generally use a revamp but that may be asking too much. It just bugs me that all these occults aren't well integrated with each other. most likely because they were introduced separately at different times. I personally would pay for an expansion DLC (like a DLC of a DLC) for those who have purchased Faires, Witches, Werewolves, and Vampires = where all 4 occult's get a complete revamp and more cross play game play. Adding in a beautiful world with a new lore. Maybe something like each occult has their own "Supreme" or "Sage" that can be romanced, or over thrown to gain special/unique magic. like a Sims 3 Supernatural on steriods. Watching each occult duel each other in their own pay... etc. I know people would hate DLC for a DLC but I would think of it as a gift to occult players that have purchased all 4 supernatural DLC that live of occult playthroughs.Modular Stuff, refreshes, and add on's.
Can we have an update making more things modular? I would love a modular cat tower for pets, existing book cases and couches becoming modular, or like turning single beds into double or triple beds? That would be a cheap way for EA to add more fun to the game. Or creating more add ons for existing stuff like the sauna's could have additional fun things connected to it, hot tubs can have a pergala attachment, or adding an umbrella to all existing tables? I think also we could use refreshes to stuff packs or other DLC that was obviously lacking. especially the older ones. Like cleaning them up by removing ugly/unfinished or useless items.... Giving random decor special animations/interactions.... etc. Using the teams 10 years of experience to update older DLC with their new talents would just be chef's kiss. What do you all think? I feel like these are reasonable requests. Not like I'm asking them to revamp the entire world or add a new life stage lol
[Discussion] Your thoughts, if you could plan the next 1-2 years for the game.
If you had influence or a say for the next year or two for the game what would you do/advocate for. Assuming the known bugs would be solved as well.

Nightclub Theme Expansion pack for Sims 4??
I would love to see a pack like the The Sims 3 70s, 80s, & 90s Stuff and The Sims 3: Late Night Expansion Pack. Add some spiral staircases to match all the ceiling heights and different disco balls with more dance floors to match. Some new beverages and maybe an active mixology job. Lets the lights flash and change colors in the club. Maybe add just a few more club songs as well. That be awesome!! Plus in my opinion, I enjoy the Sims 4 del sol valley & city living packs but it is lacking a bit on the party side.Mermaids occults revisited
Love the mermaids but I felt like they gotten the short end of the stick like the aliens not having a skill tree The skill tree The tree level should go from Sea witch 5th level sea witch once u hit this level u will be able to stop aging at the young adult stage u can turn sims into mermaids u can make deals with sims u can give and take a away buffs u can age or turn a sim young again or u can give an occult level up or lowering there level by making deals u can take a buff or occult from them as payment adagardis 4th level the adagardis can Influence more then one person with there singing making them flirty or whatever emotion you want them in u can make the start fights over u or u can make them end a relationship that they are in or help them in that relationship u can also influence there friendship or romance gages nereids 3rd level nereids have the ability to influence the weather making it rain thunderstorm making it hot cold windy or snowing u also have weather powers u can make Little rain clouds over sims or thunder clouds u can make it rain or snow inside or outside and u can freeze sims in a block of ice and hold them in there until u decide u want to let them out or make a water ball to trap a mermaid in there until u want to release it or not Siren 2sec level Sirens the can sing lure people to the water to drown them have influence over there emotions making them flirty ur singing can give them buffs or if u kiss the sim u can make them dehydrate them or can make them breathe under water longer or summon the kraken to drown them Mermaid 1st level Mermaids they step foot in the water and they turn they can call upon fish and dolphins can Savage in the ocean The witches flask When ur making a deal with the witch the witch will take something from u a buff or maybe a occult level or maybe just take ur occult away it will be random or of the witches or ur choosing and let's say if a sim gets one of the witch's flask like let's say if a sims vampirism in there and if there max out the sim gets all of the ability unlock or if there was buff in the flask they will get that buff The payment U can sell ur soul or give her or him ur buff or they can age u up or lower ur occults level down or take ur occult or it could be random depending on the price or on the witch there a good witch and a bad witch (need cauldron) Cauldron Like the wizard u can make potions to help sim breath under water longer or make an air bubble around the head for 30 mins or less u can also use the cauldron as a looking glass to watch the sim that owes u payment and to summon the sims or mermaids or bless or hex a random sim depends on u Good witch bad witch The good witch can cure any illness and cure an occult can give traits buffs and if there is a willing occult to give up there abilitys the witch can transfer to u if willing and can age or make them young again for a fair trade and if the sims die they can bring them back to life and if they past on they can bring them back from the other side but that's in the heaven and hell dlc idea I have if u want to go look lol Evil sea witch u can make deals contracts they can take buffs or traits or force to age u up or even taking ur soul or ur occult turning u back to normal or lower ur occults skill level and if u want to turn into occult u would have to kidnap a sim and the witch will steal the occult and give it to u for u soul and can also bring back the dead sims or the one that past on to the other side but need heaven or hell dlc idea I have on my page lol If u have The Seasons expansion U can use water ball to hold the mermaids in place so they can't swim away wind ball could hold a sim in place when ur underwater so they can breathe and with the ice u can freeze in place until u decide to let them go Hydration gauge And the meter will be the same with the hydration with the hydration washing ur hands taking shower swimming that will keep full which we know but if u kiss a sim u can drain all the moisture making them them dehydrate and feeling up ur water gauge it won't kill the sim it would just make them thirty which will an hydration option if u want to use it Mermaid tails Like how they have mermaid tails they should make some fancy octopus legs or shark tails and also have some fins on the arms and back or maybe cheeks with some gills and hand webbing as add-ons Mermaid-inspired Angel:* Since there mermaids i had a dlc idea with angels and demons the angels will have the ability to turn them into mermaids fairy's wizards and they will have like a mark or resemblance of the angel that turned u *Scales with Iridescent Sheen*: Shimmering scales that reflect light like angel wings, giving them an ethereal appearance. - *Aquatic Wings*: Instead of traditional wings, they have flowing, fin-like appendages that allow them to swim and glide through water with ease. - *Oceanic Halo*: A soft blue glow surrounding their head, representing their connection to the ocean and its secrets. *Mermaid-inspired Demon* - *Scales with Smoldering Ember*: Dark, fiery scales that reflect the glow of hellish flames, giving them a menacing appearance. - *Infernal Fins*: Instead of traditional wings, they have sharp, jagged fins that allow them to slice through the water with deadly precision. - *Dark Tides Aura*: A mysterious, dark purple glow surrounding their head, representing their mastery over the darkest depths of the ocean and its hidden terrors. That's all I can think of but I'll will edit on this some more if I get any other ideas Let me know what u guys think Made my first and forth edit was on the sea witch old one was with 5th level sea witch once u hit this level u will be able to stop aging at the young adult age and can make deals with any sim u can give or take away buffs if the Sims make deals with the witch u can take a buff or age them or take a way there occults or one of there abilities or leveling them down or take the souls any deal u can come up with and what ever u get is put in a flask with the name on it and they can turn sims into mermaids I'll share idea in comments Sec edit nereids My third edit was on the mermaids tails My sixth edit the payment My 7th edit good witch bad witch My 8th edit The Seasons expansion abilities My 9 edit hydration gauge My 10th edit the Cauldron My 11th edit Mermaid-inspired Angel:* My 12th edit *.Mermaid-inspired Demon.* The good and bad witch will be next on my list to get twoSo happy right now
The last update seam to have stop the cart button flashing. For the first time since it was implemented I've actually played for a while. Since then, it just as been checking updates to see If it was fixed, or working through the events. Guess I'll enjoy the game before the flashing is back.
