Over the past years the Sims has been around there have been concepts that Maxis & EA have gotten right and instances they got it very, very wrong. So this post is about examples of things I would love from past iterations of the Sims (and a few ideas for improvements) to be in the Sims 5. I had to separate and add in the comments suggested Gardening plants as well as Cooking & Baking recipes. I have also added things id like to see for sims 5 that aren't apart of any game so far. THIS IS A LONG MULTI-COMMENT POST. SCROLL THROUGH AND ADD YOUR COMMENTS & SUGGESTIONS. NOTE: I PLACED LISTS FOR COOKING, BAKING AND BEVERAGE RECIPE SUGGESTIONS BEHIND SPOILERS.

More small details like this would be great The memory system The Attraction System - Turn Ons, Turn Offs They can do basically the same ones http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/sims/images/8/8e/TurnOnsOffs.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20100223013105 The Western Zodiac https://sumukhastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/blogs-Banner-v214-Western-Astrology.jpg The cut scenes for huge life events The traits seemed to have more impact like messy Sims didn't make their beds Setting climates for each neighborhood so they made sense The had the best functioning hotels - TBH Island Living had a nice resort system too but it was so late in the game and would have been better than the hostels in WA. Hotel Desk, Locking Doors, Maid Service, Concierge activities, Room service, shuttle service Stable restaurants - Family could have job positions, plus the table interactions, the roving musician The Hair Salon Pet Jobs The Upright Piano for smaller homes. Love, Love, Love the grand pianos but some house builds require something smaller The Newspaper The Paperboy/Girl Births & Obits The Crossword Puzzle Engagement & Wedding Announcements The Horoscope The Chasing of paperboy/girl by dog Interests - Sims Child through Adult and dogs and Cats all had interests appropriate to them Bon Voyage - Camping area activities http://www.kritikanstvo.ru/games/s/sims2bonvoyage/images/sims2bonvoyage_pc_507503.jpg https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/sims/images/3/3e/Log_Rolling.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/350?cb=20100314110351 Bon Voyage - The Zen Garden Purchasing jewelry The Hobbies and their enthusiasm - can work with clubs but the enthusiasm was a nice touch Pet Store - Grooming Tub, Trainer, the actual store assets Parrots, Cockatoos - Training them and getting them to speak and giving them treats The cage for the smaller birds was the best the Sims has ever done The 3 universities instead of two Juicing The Carpool, the Bus for kids - you could even see the driver honking The garden judging for the garden club The Private schools - (different uniforms, types of schools and their bonuses) and the Headmaster scenario because a level of difficulty in order to get into private schools should be there. The witch alignments (neutral, good, bad, very good, Very evil) Retail experience was better, you could even see simoleans changing hands, the changing rooms, the generic radio stations, Car Lots - where you can purchase automobiles Sims 2 had the best weddings (only because Sims 4 messed up their wedding pack) and you could plan for a honeymoon that a Limousine took you to. http://davidchess.com/pictures/sims2_a/JaneS_Martin_limo.jpg Chess Tournaments those need a comeback The Jump Rope, Exercise Bike and Chin up Bar http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20131211021513/sims/es/images/thumb/2/27/LS2_Hobbies_32.jpg/500px-LS2_Hobbies_32.jpg https://i.ytimg.com/vi/W-6AsJind0Y/hqdefault.jpg The functional garage doors for gasp! garages and driveways The fabulous awning tool and the Wrought Iron and Glass Awning from Apartment Life Playing Marco Polo in the pool Tai-Chi and Mahjong http://www.gameguru.in/images/sims-2-bon-voyage-ss4.jpg Tea ceremony Sewing and Pottery Making https://static.miraheze.org/simswiki/thumb/7/7a/Hobby_Arts_and_Crafts.jpg/670px-Hobby_Arts_and_Crafts.jpg http://www.4gamer.net/games/046/G004615/SS/004.jpg Trimming bushes, pulling weeds - The Gardener had more to do Writing Books - The process was far more clever where you could pick amongst thought bubbles and sort of figure out what the book was about Bird watching from Free Time https://s.getwinpcsoft.com/screenshots/10/10006_1.png The Yo-Yo & Juggling https://static.taigame.org/image/screenshot/201304/the-sims-2-freetime-15.jpg The Lemonade stand https://static.miraheze.org/simswiki/a/aa/TS2OFB_Gallery_29.jpg The Skunk, The Raccoon and most importantly the Alpha Wolf The different greetings for the different social groups Tuning Instruments Winding the grandfather clock and it chimes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRCpMGiWzVY&t=13s The food contests http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/21400000/TS2-FreeTime-the-sims-2-freetime-21459082-500-383.jpg The Putting green http://www.igropoisk.com/files/screen/6106/1.jpg The Elevator Build pieces http://thumbs.modthesims2.com/img/3/0/2/5/7/2/MTS_Yogi-Tea-1263144-3-playtest.jpg Being able to see and change the style of ceilings Sims 3 Open World Color Wheel - and more channels to choose for color and patterns https://graf1x.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/color-wheel-poster.jpg CAS Hair color being divided by root, shaft and ends Create a Pattern The Gorgeous neighborhoods - the detail work and variety of the neighborhoods was the best its been in Sims 3 Cemeteries Weather, Temperature and Seasons - Only better than Sims 4 because it has Fog, Hail and Deep Snow The Moon Cycle The Town Center where the Seasonal festivals were held. They were better than all the fairs Sims 4 had Generations & Supernatural almost everything was perfect.

The Office Building, The Hospital, The interior of the Equestrian center but not the obstacle course, The Fortune Teller's Caravan ((I loved the music), The Science Lab and Observatory, the police station, The movie theatre but not the lobby The Mermaids were better in terms of playability based on all the cool dive spots and the hidden island Firefighters and the firehouse Police, Burglars, Burglar alarms Being able to swim in almost all bodies of water Skating on frozen lake Scuba Diving including deep diving.

I even love the Bleh! Seriously if they had the cape thing Bela Lugosi did I'd love it all the more. I would have loved it if they had brought back the Vampire specific Eclipsing Fog from Sims 3 but I would have had that fog protect the vampires in daylight. https://images.sftcdn.net/images/t_app-cover-l,f_auto/p/b17aa0d4-99eb-11e6-8ee3-00163ed833e7/47541037/the-sims-3-seasons-screenshot.png The Veterinary Clinic - Illnesses and injuries Holidays, Event Planning, Holiday Traditions all were fabulous - Do that again Loved the clubs those were great The variety of fairs and cultural festivals - Sims 3 did the seasonal festivals better by far but variety is the spice of life and exploring other cultures is quite fun. The food selections were good and adding them to the potential restaurant menus was a good idea Separating Cooking from Baking - Baking should have been a base game skill. The Restaurant Menu - this was a nice touch. It just needed to be tweaked so courses came out properly. Being able to add to the menu and setting it to create restaurants with different cuisine is always the right thing. Lot Traits - I hope in future they have strong impacts for lots this can help make visiting different lots more unique. Hats separate from hair The Voice Modulation Spa Day was great - Everything about it was fabulous ESPECIALLY after you added Manicures and Pedicures. https://simsvip.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/18706277654_7ab4a4fdcc_o.png Setting the holiday decorations for the outside with the little decoration box Setting the phones ring tone Trimming the Tree The multiple outfits one can plan in the different types of clothing The Pipe Organ.

Buenas tardes, Despues de comprarme los Sims Legacy para mi pc, con mucha ilusion, ya que me apetecia volver a recordar lo que era este juego, me encuentro con este problema que podeis observar. Llevo intentando solucionarlo y jugar dos dias y no hay manera. Así es como se me ven las casas y el modo construccion, es decir, me aparecen cuando paso el cursor por la zona, pero al segundo me desaparecen y ya no sé que solucion dar. Por favor, alguien me puede ayudar antes de solicitar un reembolso, ya que me es imposible e inutilizable...? [CM edit - moved from English boards. Please post in the language of the board]
Внедрения сюжетных дополнений /Implementation of story‑based expansions
Dear developers, Maxim, as well as the entire company, I’d like to ask you to add story‑based expansions to the game. These should feature unique quests and be similar to the expansions from The Sims 2: Stories. I really enjoyed that concept — especially the Cruz family storyline. Now I have an idea and a request: I’d love to see a zombie‑virus infection concept implemented. Imagine an expansion that gives us a city location where the mechanics — and the city’s appearance — change depending on the number of days since the first incident. It’s like releasing arenas with exclusive mechanics and features, all within the theme and concept of the expansion. Here’s an example of how it could work: We start the game as a young woman who came to study and then went on vacation during the holidays, renting a house in the city. For the first few days, we get to know her daily life and get acquainted with her character. Then we trigger an epidemic: the city gradually transforms from a carefree, bright, and modern place into a dark and gloomy, god‑forsaken town where danger lurks at every turn for our heroine. The quest is designed as a survival challenge: the goal is to survive and hold out until help arrives — or to escape from the city on your own before it’s too late. As the player survives, the heroine will: meet other local survivors; take part in quests to gather resources; team up with people and build relationships; search for food, medicine, and other essentials; look for suitable shelters; explore the locations. In short, I’d like to see this kind of twist: scenario‑style arenas, but with much broader mechanics and more extensive, large‑scale storylines in this type of expansion. Implementation of story‑based expansions _______________ Дорогие мои разработчики, Максим, как и большая компания, я хочу попросить вас добавить в игру сюжетные дополнения, которые будут отличаться квестами и похожи на дополнения из The Sims 2 истории. Мне очень понравилась данная концепция, особенно про семейку Круза. Но теперь, когда мне в голову пришла идея и пожелания, попросить вас реализовать концепции заражения зомби вирусом. Представьте дополнение, которое подарит нам локацию в виде города, где механика с последующим заражением в зависимости от прошедших дней с момента первого инцидента будет менять внешний вид городка. Это как выпускать арены с эксклюзивными механиками и возможностями в рамках концепции и тематики дополнения. К примеру, мы начинаем игру за девушку, которая приехала учиться и на каникулы отправилась на отдых, арендовав домик в городе. Там мы проводим пару дней, знакомясь с ее бытом и жизнью, и с ней самой, а после запускаем эпидемию, где город постепенно из беззаботного, яркого и современного начинает превращаться в тёмный и мрачный, богам забытый городок, где нашу героиню подстерегает опасность на каждом шагу. Квест рассчитан на выживальщика. Выжить и продержаться до прибытия помощи или бегства из города своим ходом, пока стало не слишком поздно. В самой же игре по ходу своего выживания она будет знакомиться с некоторыми выжившими местными. Участвовать в каких-то квестах по добыче ресурсов. Объединяться, строить отношения. Добывать пропитание, медикаменты и все прочие. А также искать подходящие убежища, изучать локации. В общем, добавь этукую изюминку в виде арен по типу сценариев, но у подобных видов дополнения механики намного шире, а сюжетные линии масштабнее. Еще не менее важный аспект данных дополнений это наличие кат-сцен как в игре storiesФинансовая, система
Разнообразьте финансовую систему от кридитов до ипотеки. И так далее нужны премии на работе, доп. поощрения за успешно выполненный проект и в зависимости от должности денежные бонусы, а также продумайте систему раздельного счета. А то странно, что у всех симов, независимо от желания игрока, общий счет. А ведь это зависит от семейной динамики. И вы знаете, как мы любим создавать свои истории, а потому возникают трудности, к примеру, с отыгрыванием жизни двух подруг в одной квартире, так как они имеют общий бюджет. И важно даже в кафе, кто за кого платит, кто доставку оформит на свой счёт, и важно симам, как и нам, обсуждать такие важные аспекты, как финансы. И вообще договариваться.Создать карту с тематиками расширения
Дорогие разработчики, рекомендую разделить весь контент на таблицу или диаграмму для того, чтобы выпускать дополнения в соответствии с тематикой. К примеру, в нашей с вами жизни присуще взаимоотношения, а значит, мы помещаем в диаграмму или в таблицу темы данных дополнений. К примеру, дополнение по расширению свиданий и взаимоотношений пар, у которых только зарождаются отношения. Это, к примеру, следующие дополнения расширяет взаимоотношения в совместной жизни. Затем раскрываем взаимоотношения друзей и знакомых И так далее. Основной принцип — расширить возможности и раскрыть в симуляторе жизни как и этапы жизни, так и поднять на поверхность какие-то проблемы, выводы! Смыслы, в общем, делать так же классно, как сша снимает фильмы, упаковывая важные аспекты нашей жизни в дополнения с классными смыслами. Всё, что я вам привел, так это пример того, как можно расширять дополнения, не теряя при этом нить того, что следует расширить и какая тема в данный момент времени мало раскрыта. Тот же бизнес от маленького розничного магазинчика может вырасти до мега-корпорации с огромными капиталами и доходами, оказывающими влияние на весь сисм мир вот и раскройте нам рост бизнеса от мало до велика от одной точки до сети и так далееQuarry Levels 2.0 — Updates
Dear developers, It feels a bit strange that Sims in their 8‑hour shifts almost never receive calls from their superiors. No matter how hard you work, there’s no career progression. Colleagues at work don’t go to the bar or invite each other to unwind after work. There are no office romances either. There are no bonuses or rewards for holidays or for completing a project. Sims don’t have a reputation in the business world — although, in my opinion, this feature should be added as part of their professional reputation. There’s no option to have a romance with a boss or a coworker. Regardless of their job level or chosen career path, Sims are never called in for emergencies. They’re never fired via text message. Companies don’t undergo restructuring, and there’s no option to go to job interviews — nor can players choose different work schedules at various career levels. There are no investment opportunities — no way to invest money or put it into savings to earn interest at a bank. There’s no health insurance. Companies don’t offer any corporate support beyond bonuses — for example: paid mobile phone plans; gym membership subsidies; corporate libraries; housing discounts; and so on. We need to take a serious approach to this and enrich careers in The Sims with cool and engaging gameplay mechanics. This would make it more interesting for players to “go to work” with their characters and approach career choices more thoughtfully. Also, for some reason, companies don’t offer support measures or insurance. There isn’t even a “chance card” system — for example, with opportunities (based on good performance and appearance) to become an influencer on their social media. There are also no options to take group photos together, even though this feature exists in the university setting. We should add: group photos with colleagues; company‑funded leisure activities; employer‑paid vacations; vacation package awards; various gifts from the company. Thank you for considering these suggestions! ___________ Дорогие разработчики, немного странно, что на нашим симам практически никогда не звонит начальство. Сколько бы ты ни работал, у них нет карьерного роста. Они. Коллеги по работе не ходят в бар и не приглашают оттянуться после работы. Даже служебных романов нет. Нет бонусов и премий в честь праздника или за какой-то выполненный проект. У них нет репутации в деловом мире, хотя, как по мне, ее следует добавить в репутацию симов в деловом мире. Нет возможности крутить романы с начальством или коллегой по работе. Вне зависимости от уровня должности и выбранной карьеры их никогда не вызывают по форсмажорным обстоятельствам. Не увольняют по смс. Нет в компаниях оптимизаций и возможности сходить на собеседования, как и нет возможности выбирать график на разных карьерных уровнях. Нет предложений инвестирования, куда деньги. Или вкладывать их. Нельзя положить деньги под проценты в банк. Нет страховки по лечению. Кампании не предлагают помимо бонусов корпоративные поддержки. Типа оплачиваемая связь. Оплата спортзала. Корпоративная библеотека. Скидки на квартиры. И так далее. Нужно серьезно подойти к этому подходу и наполнить карьеры в the sims классными и интересными геймплейными механиками. Чтобы игрокам было интересно ходить на работу вместе с персонажами и подходить к выбору профессий для них более осознанно. Плюс почему-то компания не предлагает им меры поддержки и страховки. Нет даже карточки с шансами или предложениями из-за хорошей производительности труда и внешнего вида стать лмуом в их социальной сети, как и нет предложений вместе с фоткаться, однако есть это в универе. Нужно добавить фотографии совместные с коллегами и совместный отдых, оплаты от компании отпуска, выдача путевок и всякие разные подарки. Бонусы корпоративные программы. Курсы. Мероприятия по работе по типу выставки и конференцийRelationships 2.0
Dear developers, it’s 00:13 now, which means I’ll hurry to lay it all out for you. Relationships in The Sims 4 have been stagnating because the relationship level didn’t bring anything new to interactions. Get inspired by movies and add mechanics from them. For example, a player’s Sim meets their former classmate from university right on the street in adult life. After a short dialogue — since they were friends once — she might invite them to a party, or over to her place, or to her wedding. Basically, we need to tie events to achievements that depend on the relationship level — both in the past and in the present. Also, add chance cards: if you give the right answer, you’ll unlock access, for instance, to a fresh start where ex‑partners begin their relationship anew. And other cool situations. And this should manifest everywhere: for instance, when getting closer to your boss, if he gets drunk, he’ll call you more often to help him get home, or suggest spending time together, or share secrets and problems. We also need mechanics that allow giving something like relationship advice — bringing some of their own stories into the Sims’ lives so they act differently. In the new The Sims, let’s keep exploring the theme of life and death: in The Sims 4, you only scratched the surface of this topic by releasing the expansion with the same name. So, we need to add karmic partners from the past, karmic relatives from the past, karmic siblings from the past, and so on. The life they built in the past directly affects present‑day relationships — both between them and in their current relationships. We need to develop algorithms that will bring this into the game and unlock access to a large‑scale game filled with great key events. We just need to set everything up this way and let players customize it as they want: don’t like it — turn it off; like it — turn it on. Next, take animations and interactions from movies — they’re more lively. Plus, in all The Sims games, it’s often annoyed me that Sim‑friends, when they meet you somewhere, act like they don’t know you: they won’t come up, won’t ask how you’re doing, won’t inquire who you’re with or what you’re doing there. But questions like that should come up. For example, a cheating Sim comes to a restaurant with his mistress, and a mutual acquaintance comes up to ask what he’s doing there and who his companion is. Chance cards pop up where you can either lie, or tell it like it is, or pass her off as a colleague. Basically, play around with it, but don’t get carried away — too many cards will be annoying, so we need balance and moderation. Remember the legacy and what The Sims 2 was aiming for — after all, it wanted to be the one that’s closest to real life. Part 1 — prototype. Part 2 — first version. Part 3 — mechanics refinement. Part 4 — mechanics refinement, testing the new consciousness, and rechecking the chamber atmosphere. And now — “Olympus”: the place where all the best gets implemented, where the game gains momentum and scale, unfolding themes like never before — a whole training ground for players to gain experience in creating the stories they want to bring to life. You’ve got feedback, you’ve got ideas, you’ve got knowledge and experience that’s been built up over the years. All that’s left is to apply it all at once. And if we’re going to strike with it like a hammer on the life‑simulation genre forever, leaving our mark in this genre, we need to strike so hard that no one will ever be able to outdo or erase it — the mark of the blow in the field of life‑simulation games. ____________________ Дорогие разработчики, у меня сейчас 00:13, а значит, я поспешу быстро изложить вам. Отношения в The Sims 4 были стагнирующими из‑за того, что уровень отношений не приносил ничего нового во взаимодействие. Вдохновитесь фильмами и добавьте механики из них. К примеру, сим игрока встречает во взрослой жизни свою бывшую одногруппницу из универа прямо на улице. После небольшого диалога, поскольку они когда‑то были друзьями, та может позвать её на вечеринку, или к себе в гости, или позвать на свадьбу. В общем, нужно привязать события как достижения, которые зависят от уровня отношений — как в прошлом, так и в настоящем. Также добавить и карточки шанса: в случае правильного ответа вам откроется доступ, к примеру, к новому началу, когда бывшие начинают заново отношения. И другие классные ситуации. И это должно проявляться везде: к примеру, при сближении с начальником он, если напьётся, чаще звонит вам, чтобы помочь добраться до дома, или предлагает вместе провести время, или делится секретами и проблемами. Также нужны механики, которые позволяют давать что‑то типа советов в отношениях — какие‑то свои истории приносил в жизнь симов, чтоб они поступали как‑то иначе. В новой The Sims продолжаем раскрывать тему жизни и смерти: вы в The Sims 4 лишь слегка коснулись этой темы, реализовав дополнение с этим же названием. А значит, нужно добавить и кармических партнёров из прошлого, родственников кармических из прошлого, братьев и сестёр кармических из прошлого и так далее. Жизнь в прошлом, которую они строили, прямо влияет на отношения настоящие — как между ними, так и в нынешних отношениях. Нужно разработать алгоритмы, которые принесут это в игру и откроют доступ к масштабной игре, наполненной классных ключевых событий. Нужно лишь настроить всё так и дать игрокам настроить так, как они хотят: не нравится — выключаем, нравится — включаем. Далее берите анимации и взаимодействия из фильмов — они более живые. Плюс во всех The Sims меня часто раздражало, что симы‑друзья, когда встречают вас где‑то, делают вид, что с вами не знакомы: не подойдут, не спросят, как дела, не узнают, с кем вы и что вы тут делаете. Хотя подобные вопросы должны поступать. Например, сим‑изменщик пришёл со своей любовницей в ресторан, и его общий знакомый подошёл узнать, что он тут делает и кто его спутница. Выходят карточки выбора, где можно либо врать, либо говорить как есть, либо выдать её за коллегу. В общем, играйтесь, но не увлекайтесь, так как слишком много карточек будут раздражать — нужен баланс и в меру. Помните наследие и то, к чему стремилась The Sims 2, а ведь она хотела быть той самой, приближённой к реальности. 1 часть — прототип. 2 часть — первая версия. 3 часть — отработка механик. 4 часть — отработка механик и проверка нового сознания, и перепроверка камерной атмосферы. И теперь — «Олимп»: место, где всё самое лучшее реализовывается, где игра набирает обороты, масштабы, раскрывая темы не на шутку, — целый полигон для получения опыта игроками для создания историй, которые они хотят воплотить в жизнь. У вас есть обратная связь, у вас есть идеи, у вас есть знания и опыт, который нарабатывался годами. Осталось применить это всё разом. И если уж ударить ими, как молотком, по жанру симуляторов жизни навсегда, оставив свой след в этом жанре, то надо бить так, чтоб никто и никогда не смог перебить или стереть его — след от удара в области игр‑симуляторов жизни.
