Sims 4 On Tour (cars & bands)
Okay, let me take a (slightly) deeper dive into my “Sims 4 On Tour” expansion pack. Note I did not play any Sims game other than Sims Medieval and Sims 4, so let me start right off by saying I will not be comparing to previous games, and I don’t want to. This also isn’t going to be as comprehensive as some other proposals, just features I would like in said On Tour pack. I do focus a little more on Bands than Cars. Cars, Vans, and Buses: In an ideal world, these would be drivable, but with the size of the worlds in the game, that leans towards the impractical. In my head, cars and vans are interactive objects that can be repaired, “souped up” and repainted. They can play music, open the map, serve as a woohoo spot, and for bonus points, double as a sales table. Buses are more like the treehouse where you place down the basic body and then bunks, tables, bench seating, showers, toilets, sinks, mini fridges and microwaves can be slotted in, but otherwise are much like cars in terms of what you can do with them. Or just build items to create the bus as a house (similar to the Tent build options that came with Adventure Awaits) such as a specialized foundation and tire objects. Base game would just get cars and vans, possibly without the selling out of the trunk option. Bands: Expanded instruments – Drum kit, Standing Bass, Cello, Flute, Saxophone, and trumpet – at a minimum. Also kid sized versions of all of those plus acoustic guitars and kid sized microphones. The pack would also come with new keyboards, electric guitars and electric bass. Honestly, Animations is where I see most of the budget going. There would also be a Stage item – a large-ish rectangle (roughly on par with a medium dance floor) where you could slot in up to 5 instruments – including a microphone, and then click on that to have the band practice/perform together. If they could get it to work, mics and guitars could be doubled up so the sim can play both. You would, of course, be able to assign sims to particular instruments, or they would play as per their asignment in the Band (see below) New venue types – Garage (where you could buy, sell or pay to have your vehicle upgraded), and Arena/Music Venue, which would be focused around the Stage item, but could also work as a bar/lounge just without needing the TV or Radio. A Build a Band feature, kinda riffing off the small business mechanic, but you’re hiring people to play in the band – and you could hire a manager, or assign that role to the sim creating the band. Not a club per se, because this is more focused, and I think the asigned activities via Small Businesses/Custom Venues is a better fit. World: Honestly, I’d be okay with the pack not having a world since the idea is “on tour,” but the other option would be 3 implied to be disconnected Neighborhoods (not entirely unlike Ondarion) each inspired by a different genre of music (Blues, Rock, Hip-hop, for example – I’m actually not too fussy about which genres… except Country, because Sims 4 Horse Ranch exists.) Or just based on Chicago, 'cause I'm biased. So there’s my thoughts out into the wild. Sims Team, it’s all yours if you want it. :)
Allow to edit/update Dynasties via any member
I really like Dynasties but every time I go to edit the Dynasty Details or spend the Perk Points, I realize... oops I am not on the head/leader, then I have toggle out, and select the head/leader, but what if I am not in the household with the head/leader oof... Edit: Really? No one with larger dynasties with the head/lead in another household, is fine having to re-add their head/lead to active household just to add more perks?More space for Kingdom Titles please!
Just as I am starting to set my kingdom titles and I am on Forgotten Hollow for Vampires and... Oh, come on! Queen of the Damned in reference to Anne Rice's vampires and I am 1 letter off!?!? edit: also no room for Princess of Darkness, but enough room for Prince of Darkness :(Fantasy/Sci-Fi/etc. Themed Packs
With EbN most of the supernatural Life States are in Sims 4. I would of course like more but a general satisfaction that if you have RoM/V/W/EbN you finally almost have the equivalent to Sims 3 Supernatural. Sims 3 Supernatural (my first Sims 3 pack) is what got me hooked on buying all Sims 3 packs and almost the entire Sims 3 store—so that is why I mention it. But because I am a fantasy/sci-fi based player, non-fantasy/sci-fi packs and packs that do not compliment fantasy/sci-fi type themes don't interest me much—so that means there are more packs I rather skip/not buy than buy (but I am also aware many players feel the opposite too). At least that is what I found in Sims 4, it is easier to skip packs in Sims 4 than Sims 3. Also funny enough, I had no interest in the Journey to Batuu (I mean I probably would like the CAS and Build by the rest of the pack I have zero interest), just the Star Wars universe doesn't really have a place in my Sim worlds (but I might buy it (on sale), if they add a Dystopian EP/GP). With this, new packs are really going to have to impress me to buy, otherwise I need hard convincing just to buy packs when they are on sale. So here are some idea for packs that might interest fantasy/sci-fi/themed game style players and may or may not interest non-fantasy/non-sci-fi/non-themed game style players. Steampunk, bring back inventing that is more tinkerer/eccentric based that can work for past, modern and (dystopian) future themed players. I loved using both Ambitions/WA and the steampunk store packs (including Midnight Hollow) to create a sort of industrial steampunk themed game. This could probably be a GP but you'd wow me if you did a EP. Medieval, also a fan of Dragon Valley and baby dragons. I think many players would love to be technology free (no cell phones/computers/TVs/etc.) especially for a non-ECO off the grid challenge. I'd suggest an EP, make it so you can play past/modern tech (or lack of tech). Underground and/or Underwater Biodome, my fav Sims 2 lot was a the Biodome, I still want to see that again revised. But for a fallout or future playstyle this would be so cool. Or even ocean exploration themed. Space Station/Spaceship, or some Future World. I loved Into the Future and Oasis landing! I miss nanites and the regular or dystopian versions of the future world. Whimsical, I loved the Looking Glass/Wonderland store items, I sort of used Midnight Hollow and utopian future to play an Alice in Wonderland theme game. I'd love a tea party table (I loved the store tea set table). This could be a GP or very least a SP (similar to how Paranormal works) but please not a Kit (it wouldn't be enough to work with). The idea of oversized items, from being shrunk (misses oversized flowers). How to make this work for non-fantasy themed players, theme park lots/capability for themed lots, to keep fantasy Sims in certain worlds/lots similar to werewolves staying in their world. Adventure Worlds, aka Al Simhara, Shang Simla and Champs Les Sims, JA is nice but I really loved these worlds too. This is themed but not fantasy/sci-fi so more people should be able to enjoy.
Why is this sell out a thing when there isn't a collab with Lego yet?
I just realized for all friends, collabs, and the other stuff. Sims and Lego have not worked together to mix their **bleep** together?! It excite me thinking possibly having MySims Trophies as Lego Pops like Travis and Buddy. Whatever those are called. Also we get Lego accessories for every stage. Those are so similar, but not made out with each other? For fun collabs possibly those most greedy in their similar ways how is that not have worked out yet? I also thinking how awkward I saw the vac zoomies move up the raised levels clipping through the wall is also how it hyped the thought into me. Is to have those programable Lego kits come with a new zoomie vac that animate itself to clime up those raise plate forms that could expand the range by also climbing onto other floors to vac up dirt and updated to clean up the dust. Possibly be nice with different versions of how those code monkey be implemented maybe some be DIY kit builds. I think that would even erase the problem that I don't even hear about now. Did that got declined by now? I guess either way... if this idea was to happen... You wouldn't dare sell it again... ya?
