Currently, our teams are working on exciting projects across The Sims 4, The Sims Mobile, The Sims FreePlay and Project Rene and we can’t wait until the day we can share even more details.

suggestion/ideas that sims 5 should include in the game
Hello, all simmers! I wanted to create a new topic on what sims 5 " Project Rene" should have included. Feel free to state your ideas! Sims 5 should have: - no loading screens between neighbourhoods - cars/bicycles that work - More pets with more interactions ( hamsters don't just stay in the cage, can roam the house, snakes, birds, reptiles, monkeys that can sit on sim shoulders, horses, carriages. - No more sims strangers joining a conversation between playable sims - Height sliders -More animations, more romantic interactions and maybe unlocked secrets interactions - Make it harder for sims to become lovers just like in TS2 and TS1 - Sims can have different friendship bars and romance bars, for example, one sim can like a sim and the other can hate the sim; sim 1 likes sim 2 but sim 2 dislikes sim 1 - No more using the sink in the bathroom to wash dishes - teenagers look like teenagers - sims should have more life stages. infant, baby, toddler, child, pre-teen, teen, young adult, adult, elder - Halloween, trick or treat, costumes, Christmas etc - Mosques and churches, sims should introduce a religion that we can pick in make-a-sim. For example, a Muslim sim cannot have an intimate relationship before marriage sims should have more "self-rules" - Arranged marriages not based on romance but family reasons, sims can ask family for a " hand in marriage" - Abortions and being able to put a baby up for adoption - Risky woohoo - Not every sim should get happy about being pregnant, make us choose how the sims feel about it - Teen and adult romance. Let's be real how many of you wanted your teen to have an adult BF/GF? - Teen pregnancies, it would make sense since most birth rates are from teens - If a teen got pregnant parents can choose whether to support, accept or be mad - More career options - No more rabbit holes, please EA - More professions such as hairdresser, spa, firefighter, and singer like TS3 - Option to choose the sim's sexuality in create-a-sim like Gay/lesbian/bi and straight. If one sim is straight and the other is gay, the straight sim will refuse any romantic interactions - Sims can own a shop and run the shop such as a clothing shop a coffee shop a restaurant, a grocery store etc - Vacation destinations, china, Paris, India, the middle east, Tokyo, islands, resorts etc - Like TS3, be able to own and build your resort, club, lounge, park etc - Acting career, with no rabbit holes, actually be able to interact and become a celebrity - Small interactions add a huge amount of realism to the game and there are many that we miss. Who would like to see the return of cuddling in bed for instance? - Dating preferences. I have a lot more to include but I don't want to make this too long. Thanks for reading! What would you like to see in sims 5?Regarding Content Shared on These Forums

Thaughts on project renee
36 and still play the sims and now my children do as well. I love being able to customize every thing. Makeing it even more customizable would be awsome. I love the life staging process as well makes it more realistic. One suggestion there though is let the schooling just continue on to the collage rather then haveing an expansion pack for it. expansion packs takes up memory room in pc so having to choose between expansion packs stinks. i wish the you got more items included into the expansion packs. I'd like to see more diffrent types of animals if animals are going to continue on with sims five. I'd like to see more activities for our sims to do. I'm excited to see what they come up with next... I want to see the sims continue on for many more generations. I thinks it's fantastic imagination game for the kids.

The future of the Sims
Reading the blog post is says they were making new games or basically no more one linear game.Meaning I think we're going to have bunch of different sims games for all sorts of players. They might reboot mysims or make better A more complex basegame they might make something like the sims 3 in the future.
For “The Next Evolution of The Sims” Aka Project X or Sims 5
So I was reading EA basically confirming the rumors in PR speak about what is likely Project X. I would like to make a few suggestions for the upcoming project. Presuming it will be a Sims 4 replacement (which is still undetermined) I have my wishes, which I made into a magnum opus post about a year or so ago. I'll give the abridged list. Here are my prioritized wish list Base Game Open World Should be big enough to add lots when new packs come out Lots can be moved and will snap to road if adjacent Lots can snap to each other Ex: Large Lot with a Mansion and smaller Lot to add a Hedge Maze Open Water for Swimming & Boating Specificity in Community Lot Window Lot & Sub Lot Categories - I don't want something to just say "Bar" I would like the Bar Type to be in the Drop Down Description. I'd also like a small variation in the Lot Thumbnail similar to Sims 3 Bar Billards Bar Dive Bar Karaoke Bar Piano Lounge Pub Ice Bar Vampire Lounge Community Lot Information Window Address Hours of Operation Ownership Lot Traits Color Wheel & Create A Pattern - Sims 3 level of Customization for objects EX: Bed Customizable Sections Bed Curtain (If Applicable) Bed Frame Pillows Sheets Bedspread Bed Skirt Seasons Basics Similar to Sims 2 - planned Climates/Seasons per world This will greatly enhance the ambiance of the various worlds Temperature - That effects Sims AND Pets Temperature Display Range of Comfort Ailments & Illness Due to Weather Alleriges Freezing Heat Exhaustion Heat Stroke Hit By Hail Struck by Lightning Basic Weather - with new weather types introduced in subsequent pack as it pertains to the pack. Base Game Weather Hot Summer Nighttime - Heat Lightning Overcast Rain Hail Shower Thunderstorms Snow Average Blizzards Wind Storm Weather in EPs Acid Rain Desert - Sandstorm Dust Devil Fog in Creepy Worlds & Seaports Light Pea Soup Monsoon Smog Thundersnow Moon Cycle - Of minor importance, but if its in Base Game early on, there can be all kinds of fun, quirky things added that the moon can effect over time. The Cycle Itself Players can set the Lunar Cycle Eclipses Solar Eclipses - Sims watching with the special glasses Lunar Eclipses Full Moon Ghosts appear in larger numbers Mermaids must return to the water Old wives tales speak of interesting behavior by the mad during a full moon Special Treasures and Secret Places become Visible Werewolves uncontrollably change Zombies appear in force on Full Moons New Moon Ambient Light during a New Moon being lower than any other phase Burglars choosing the New Moon for break ins over Full Moons Fairies are at their lowest power-wise Several Occults and magic in general are effected by the moon phases Moon Bathing CAS Body Details Beauty Marks Body Hair Freckles Scars Tattoos & Piercings - I'm actually ok with them being in their own Game Pack. Tattoo Parlor Community Lot Tattoo Artist Career Tattoo Station Greater Customization & Body Placement Larger Amount of Designs Hair - Similar to Sims 3 broken down by section for color customization Root Shaft End Eye Color Customizable Finger Nails & Toe Nails 5-10 Basic Colors & Shapes and French Manicure are fine in BG with new and more interesting designs and colors in later packs Colors sets per outfit Day Spa Community Lot Game Pack Adds Day Spa & Yoga Studio Community Lots Yoga can be done at a Day Spa but the additional lot type adds flexibility for the player. Adds Relaxing Lot Traits New Age Radio Station All the expected Spa Experiences Ear Cleaning - Very Popular in the east Facials Feet Washing Guided Meditation Mani/Pedis Massages Aroma Therapy Choice Lavender Mint & Rosemary Neroli Sandalwood Vanilla Ylang Ylang Types Foot Full Body Hand Head Massage Styles (Choice of Aroma Therepay) Acupressure Deep Tissue Hot Stone Sports Massage Swedish Sauna & Hot Tub Wraps Seaweed Vocal Accenting & Walking Pace Make Up & Jewelry & Accessories - Set Per Outfit Hats Ascot Cap Balaclava Baseball Cap Beanie Beret Boater Boble Bonnet Boonie Bowler Bucket Campaign Cartwheel Chef's Toque Chupalla Cloche Conical Cowboy Hat Custodian Deerstalker Do-Rag Fascinators Fedora Fisherman's Cap Flat Cap Fez Hard Hat Homburg Newsboy Panama Phrygian Pillbox Pith Helmets Pork Pie Sailor Safari Sombrero Straw Tam O'Shanter Taqiyah Top Hat Trapper Hat Trilby Turban Turban for Ladies/Sleeping Umbrella Ushanka Visor Witch Hat Yarmulke Zucchetto Jewelry Categories Anklets Arm Bands Bracelets & Cuffs Earrings Necklaces Piercings Rings Rings set per finger Toe Rings Makeup Categories Base Blush Eyebrow Eyeliner Full Face Lipstick & Lip Liner Mascara/Lashes Full Face Makeup Ex: Clown Geisha Military Camouflage Mime Rain Gear & Cold Weather Gear are SEPARATE CLOTHING CATEGORIES!!! 2 to 3 Planned Looks for Each Category Sims & Pets Costume Tab - Planned Costumes for Parties 2 to 3 Planned Looks Sims & Pets Traits & Preferences Diet should be separate from all traits Omnivore Pescatarian Vegan Vegetarian Basic Preferences - I really liked the variety of Sims 4 Preferences like design styles for Clothing & Decor. Here is a list of basics for BG. More can be added later Book Genres Color - Pick 2 Favorite Food - Pick 3 Gem Stone Music Types TV & Movie Genres Weather Type Professional Titles Attorney - esq. Culinary - Chef Doctor - Dr. Judge - The Honorable or Judge Military - Ranks Police - Ranks Teacher - Prof. Family Relationships Mother, Step-Mother Father, Step Father Siblings & Step-Sibling Grandparents Aunts, Uncles Cousins Romantic Relationships - Please give ALL the accepted terms for Romantic Partner and let the player make their own choices. If you want to be "inclusive" this is what it looks like. Wife, Husband Spouse Partner Boyfriend, Girlfriend Fiance, Fiancee BG Skills Athletic/Body/Fitness Swimming - 5 level mini skill that improves Athletic Skill simultaneously Scuba Diving & Snorkeling improves Swimming Skill Simultaneously Almost any physical activity should improve this skill including Dancing Baking - An absolute must in the Base Game. It’s a pain in Sims 4 to find particular recipes between this and Cooking/Gourmet Recipes Charisma Cleaning - Hidden Skill Cooking - No Additional Gourmet Category just set the recipes according to an established level of skill. Some recipes are more difficult that others that is just common sense Computer Programming Dance I think this is a form of exercise that should improve Athletics simultaneously I’d pick two Dance Styles and add new ones in later packs so that we have variety Viennese Waltz should be in BG Dances in EPs & GPs Argentinian Tango Ballet Hula Salsa Tap Driving - Mini Skill Fishing - All Styles Crabbing Deep Sea Fishing Ice Fishing Spear Fishing Floral Arranging Gardening & Horticulture All Planting and Harvesting Improves this Handiness Electrical, Appliance Repair and Plumbing are apart of handiness as is traditional Tuning Instruments should improve Handiness Bring Back Upgrades Automotive Maintenance should be a separate but related skill Woodworking should be separate but related skill. This should be in another pack though Logic Many sources improves this skill Musical Skills Harp - Not BG Guitar Piano Pipe Organ - Not BG Violin Painting Main Skill in Painter Career Writing Main Skill for Education, Journalism & The Writer Career EP & GP Skills Ceramics & Pottery Making Divination/Fortune Teller Skills Channeling/Medium Crystal Ball Divination Horoscope Writing Palmistry Tarot Card Reading Tasseography Glass Blowing & Glass Work Glass Blowing Stained Glass Knitting & Macrame Martial Arts Archery Fencing Karate Nectar Making Perfume & Soap Making Research & Debate Scuba Diving & Snorkeling Sculpture Making Sewing Skiing & Snowboarding Surfing Wellness Juicing Meditation Self-Care Tai Chi Yoga Avoidable Annoyances to spare us by putting them in the Base Game Automobile/Vehicle Ownership Set whose vehicle (Car, Motorcycle) is whose Setting Bed Ownership Sleeping Positions, who sleeps on the left, who sleeps on the right Includes Pet Beds Bed Quality You can use any frame you like for beds & and you pay to upgrade the mattress Community Lot Window (As Seen Above) Lot Type -

For use in Jewelry Making. Here is a list of Gems & Semi-Precious Stones I'd like to see, but not necessarily in BG can be introduced in new zones based upon where the stones are typically found. EX: Amethyst Aquamarine Blood Stone Citrine Diamonds Blue Diamond Chocolate Diamond Pink Diamonds Emeralds Garnets Jade Lapis Lazuli Malachite Moonstone Morganite Onyx Opals Black Fire Peridot Rose Quartz Rubies Sapphires (Blue Ceylon) Pink Sapphire (The hot pink colored) Smoky Quartz Tigers Eye Topaz Tourmaline Turquoise Build/Buy Must Haves in the Game Build Attics Basements Bay Windows with Seat Closets Easier to put them into Base Game and incorporate them into house builds them try to add them to existing builds later.

New Breeds coming in Updates and later packs especially if the breeds are from the general area a new world introduces. Cats & Dogs should have clothing categories of their own Rain Gear Cold Weather Collars Should have a Lot of Fun Designs how about doing a collaboration with Foggy Dog Costumes Swimming & Boating Gear Work Uniforms Dogs should come in 5 breed sizes Xtra Small - Chihuahuas & Yorkies Small - Cavaliers, Mini Schnauzers Medium - Standard Schnauzers Large - Labradors, German Shepherds X-tra Large - Great Danes Temperature should effect pets in interesting ways Cats & Dogs loving the Fireplace when its burning Snow being enjoyable to some pets and others are like, nope Pet jobs should make a come back Acting Farm & Ranch Military Police Search & Rescue Therapy Veterinarian should be a Medical Career Sims 4 had as a skill and that was dumb Community Lots we should have Associated with Pets Cat Cafe Dog Park Grooming Spa Pet Cemetery Pet Store Vet Clinic NPC Animals Types Birds - with exception to Pet birds would be fine if they were confined Bird Baths Feeders The Sky as an animation Chipmunks & Squirrels - Its fine if they are similar to Sims 3 Deer Dolphin Fox Owls Rabbits Sea Rays Sea Turtles Skunk Wolves Special Notes Please make them move, sound and act just like their real life counterparts. Please don't make them Dog or Cat clones. They shouldn't totally have to be tied to an object They should reside where it would be realistic and beneficial to have them Occults - I don’t mind them being in different packs as long as they are thoroughly fleshed out. Powers and abilities being a learned tiered things was genius Vampires - Sims 4 was just about perfect in terms of powers, weaknesses, and look. Here is the only suggestions I would make. Keep the all the Sims 4 Powers and most especially Speed Strength Bat Form Mist Form Vampires should abhor Silver. Wearing silver should make them smoke the same as sunlight. Cannot enter unless invited Evil Vampires should wilt flowers in passing and scare animals. According to lore hunters used to use pure white horses to find their graves. How about an aversion to white horses and unicorns. Eclipsing Fog from Sims 3 should be a Vampire Power The two different styles of teeth was perfect. Nosferatu Fangs vs normal fangs Vampire should have a boost in learning Alchemy like in Sims 3 Evil Vampires should respond to the Question of where did you go to University with Scholomance, which is where Dracula is said to have been taught Keep the garlic, the wreaths and garlands, the scent and the Vampire Aversion Consider adding Bat Houses with bat animations at dawn and dusks with Bat SFX Always have Graveyards & Cemetery Lots (there is a subtle difference between the two) Tomb Rabbit Hole Once in a while a Sims 3 World Adventures style tomb to discover Spell Casters /Witches I’d make the spells/powers more exciting Spell Classes - Were a great idea just need more classes Add Enchanting & Divination Enchanting & Cursing Objects Enchanting adds benevolent spells Cursing add malevolent spells "Bad Luck" - Cursed Item cause things to break in the house "Lord of the Flies" - Causes a Fly infestation which has the potential to cause a Fly Swarm death "Haunted Host" - Cursed Item draws a poltergeist to the lot Familiars should have had more going on with them. You couldn’t even talk to them or interact in a meaningful way. I think Alignments from Sims 2 should return along with spells and familiars exclusive to each Alignment. There can be other familiars bonded with (like family Pet’s) however the three listed are exclusive Owls - Neutral Ravens - Evil Phoenix - Good Dueling should not be exclusive to Witches, it should take place between all magic users. Sims 3 had the best Magic Store. I’m bored of kiosks. I think not only would it be cool to have a separate Alchemy Skill to make potions, I also think crafting and Enchanting our own wands would be more fun. I’d bring back the Fortune Teller Career back with any witch pack Caravan Caravan Radio Channel Fortune Teller Services Astrology Aura Reading Crystal Ball Divination Gris-Gris Bags & Charms Against Occults Love Potion #9 Medium Skill Palmistry Tarot Reading Tasseography Werewolves I'd give a bit more flexibility to designing the Ears & Snout. Perhaps with allowing a bit more length to them Like Vampires Werewolves have an aversion to Silver Hotels Community Lot Type & Booking Window and a very basic Front Desk & Hotel Door and Concierge NPC should be added to Base Game. This is so that at least very basic hotels can be added to any vacation style world. All the perks of running a hotel should be in the game pack Maid Service Custom Room Service Menu & Room Service Delivery Themed, beautiful Front Desks Various kinds of Rooms, Suites and Villas Hotel Rating System Uniform Setting Hiring/Firing Amenities & Multi Function Capability Locking Hotel Doors Elevators Tropical Vacations & other Beaches Activities Beach Bonfires Beach Clean Up Beach Combing & Metal Detecting Sea Glass Sea Shells Boating House Boats Kayaks & Canoes Sail Boats Fire Knife & Hula Dancing Fishing Crabs & Lobsters Deep Sea Oysters & Clams Spear Fishing Harvestables (Tropical) Bananas Coconuts Mangoes Papayas Pineapples Hiking to Volcanos Hot Coal Walk Protecting Sea Turtles was a grand Idea Sandcastles for Children, Sand Sculptures for Adults Sunbathing Tanning & Sunburns Surfing & Windsurfing Scuba Diving & Snorkeling Diving for Pearls Spear Fishing Treasure Diving Underwater Archeology Swimming with Dolphins Sea Rays Sharks Holiday Game/Stuff Packs Should not be the end all be all of when we get Holiday Items. Update! All Xmas Trees should be trimmable Different themed looks New looks come free around Xmas time. Present Wrapping should match Color Schemes Blue, Silver Gold, Silver Red, Black, Gold Red, Green Styles Flocked Sage Green, Rose, White Goth Rustic Buffalo Check Plaid, Brown Paper Lights Warm Clear Lights Green Multi Red Mantles should be able to support Stockings Holiday Lights would be grand to get new color combinations for different holidays All One Color Baby Blue Baby Pink Blue Clear (Cool) Clear (Warm) Green Hot Pink Lavender Orange Purple Red Yellow Two Color Combos Baby Blue & Clear (Warm) Baby Pink & Clear (Warm) Blue & Clear (Warm) Green & Clear (Warm) Hot Pink & Clear (Warm) Orange & Purple Orange & Yellow Purple & Green Red & Clear (Warm) Red & Green Three Color Baby Blue, Blue, Clear (Warm) Baby Blue, Baby Pink, Clear (Warm) Baby Pink, Red, Clear (Warm) Blue, Clear (Warm), Green Clear (Warm), Green, Red Green, Purple, Yellow Red, Clear (Warm), Blue Red, Orange, Yellow Red, Purple, Blue Rainbow Holiday Lights should come in Sims 4 Styles Chaser Lights Icicle Large Bulbs
