Suggestion: Allow Three Sims to Sleep in One Bed in The Sims 4
Hello, dear developers! I would like to suggest adding the ability for three Sims to sleep in the same bed in The Sims 4. Right now, even though the game allows polyamorous relationships through mods and multiple partners, Sims are still forced to sleep separately. This feels unrealistic, especially for players who want to create large families, polyamorous households, or roleplay as wealthy sheikhs with multiple wives. There are two possible solutions to this issue: Modify the existing double beds so that three Sims can sleep in them instead of just two. This would be a simple way to make gameplay more realistic for players who want their Sims to share a bed in a natural way. Introduce new extra-large beds, designed for three or more Sims. These could include: Extra-wide family beds for large households. Luxurious Eastern-style beds, fitting for a sheikh’s palace. Floor mattresses in an Eastern or Japanese style, where multiple Sims can sleep together. This small but meaningful change would bring more realism and diversity to the game, making different lifestyles more immersive. We hope the developers will consider this idea for a future update or expansion. Thank you for your attention!
Some quality of Life improvements
I would like to suggest a few improvements in Sims 4 Ability to bulldoze lots directly from world map Possibility to toggle basic cheats like MOO, CAS-fulledit, autopaybillls, unlocked careere rewards Preview in different seasons while building a lot (just like we can see different parts of the day) Skip CAS in new saves More columns in CAS Being able to transfer calendar events in new saves separate wants/fears toggleMiss any features of the sims 3.
So moving to Sim 4 I found my absolutely favourite feature of the sims 3 dispeared... The option. to custom colour everything. I love this feature so much i made a complete custome coloured house that was absolutely stunning. Although i wished you could customise them a bit more like you can for fairy wings in the Sim. Creating a fairy just reminded me of how much I missed that.
City life cycle, Construction & Renovation
Hi, Evergreen Harbor is the only world who can evolve depending on the Eco Footprint. I think it's very weird to live in a "frozen in time" world, 10 generations later nothing changed in city. I propose the same level of change as Evergreen Harbor but at a way slower pace. Evolution of rabbithole businesses (Random) : It used to be a Movie Theater but the new owner turn it into something else. Effects of time : Building are dirty and damaged until a facade renovation Bulldozed building and new Construction : The city is alive. Maybe to add a life cycle to playable lots : At some point the house will fall apart if nothing is done. Sims building houses by themselves : Lower cost for material but slower process than B/B mode drag&drop. At the end obtaining a better quality house for sims with Handiness skill lvl 10. For example the world could be : Old Downtown Ruins : The town have been abandoned for years during the Industrial but the sims are coming back and decide to restore its old glory. New City Construction Site : A modern neighborhood under construction Suburb of Temporary Accommodations : Where the sims can temporarily live until their home is entirely built. Start a life in a city from its beginning to its end ? (The players can decide to let the city die): the parents will live in a city under construction their children will grow up in a new city their grandchildren will grow up in a fully functional city their great grandchildren will grow up in a city who is slowly deteriorating the next generation will see it falling apart the next generation will see people give up and leaving the city (or people deciding to refresh it and give it a second life, players decide its fate). the next generation could be the last sims living in this city.
New base game swatches
Do you have any suggestion of BASE GAME items (create a sim or build/buy) that should get new color swatches? Drop it here. Add the cardigan top color swatches to the cardigan dress and vice-versa. Add the male varsity jacket color swatches to the female varsity jackets and vice-versa. It would be pretty useful for these items have new swatches that included solid/no prints and monochromatic versions. We really need to have at least the 7 rainbow colors, bit we shouod also have pink, brown, black, white and grey, for every clothing and accesory in base game. Exactly like what the swimsuits update brought us.Honoring the Sims Legacy: Final Sims 4 Packs & Sims 5 Ideas
Hello Maxis team, I’m sharing these ideas directly for the Maxis development team, in case they find them helpful for future updates. I hope they can contribute to improving the experience for both current and future Sims players. For Sims 4, I believe it would be meaningful to create a series of final major packs that celebrate the history of the game and the series as a whole. These packs could include flashbacks and references to favorite features from Sims 2, 3, and previous Sims 4 content, gradually showing players that the game is approaching the end of its cycle and creating a sense of nostalgia and closure. To ensure that players remain emotionally connected and active, the final pack could give a sense of continuity, suggesting that the world of Sims continues and that the Sims will still be there waiting, even as players eventually move on to a future game. This approach could provide both a feeling of completion and ongoing life for the Sims world, creating meaningful emotional engagement. Looking ahead to a potential Sims 5, I envision a game that could combine the best elements from previous Sims titles while introducing new features that deepen immersion and engagement. Improved AI and more realistic Sims behavior could make the world feel alive, while offering players the choice to play in single-player or multiplayer mode would broaden the appeal without compromising gameplay depth. Incorporating references or evolved versions of popular elements from earlier Sims games could honor the series’ legacy and create a familiar yet fresh experience for longtime fans. It might also be interesting to involve the community in small polls or votes on preliminary designs, allowing players to help shape which ideas they would enjoy most. This could foster collaboration and ensure that development aligns with player expectations, while keeping feedback positive and constructive. I hope these ideas can help inspire the Sims team and contribute to shaping a memorable and enjoyable experience for everyone in the community. Thank you for taking the time to consider these suggestions.
