They’d probably base it off of the US… I could see them implementing some singular lots along the way rather than open neighborhoods, like gas stations, camp grounds, UFO sites… who knows
I know it is and I was hoping that something like this would happen! I look forward to creating my own world because then we could build malls, stores, build a portal to some mythical land, explore History in a time machine, create characters such as fairies, ogres, and others. I look forward to seeing this in the future!
"What must a pack include for you to consider buying? Select up to three" is such a blatant display of their laziness because I wanted to select almost all of them because an Expansion pack SHOULD include almost all of them.
exactly, i chose this one because i think this would make the game so much more realistic and give so much more gameplay aspects. and we have no packs that is remotely close to this
samee!! i wish we could do crimes (maybe get burglars) I think it would be cool if we could go to prison and maybe the pack would be compatible (but not required) with get to work!
Create a World is definitely possible in TS4 - there’s a modder already working on it in fact. It’s TwistedMexi and his TOOL mod is already a good example of how that could work
One of the options for expansion pack ideas on the list is "modern monarchy". However, I still wish we could get a full medieval expansion pack and have it be a separate world, kind of like how Batuu or Strangerville works. I don't want modern royalty! The first option they give about a post apocalyptic world seems like that could make that happen. It's honestly been my most wanted pack for a long time. 😭
im very interested in the crime one ngl cuz i think there is barely any actual real life consequences in this game so if there was it would definitely make the game more realistic to being a life simulation. Also something different than just starting off in an old starter home trying to get rich like every other playthrough
Yeah the thing is I bet that modern monarchy pack would be very much like get famous... like I don't think it would be very good :(( I love the idea of the apocalyptic world and the cyber punk world!! I wish they had a fantasy option in the list too! A medieval monarchy pack with fairies or something would slap sooooo hard
i won't lie, i like the idea of all those packs. something suuuuper different from anything else. i'm curious what they'd actually look like and how they would work. also CREATE A WORLD!!! honestly i don't think we even need smth as huge as TS3 CAW... I'd take the neighborhood maker from TS2 where you can pick a model and then just place houses and decorations yourself or change if its like desert or grassy etc
Why. Do ALL of the potential upcoming expansion themes sound so great? Is this what they all sound like before they water them down? Is this what they report to execs they've created?
my first pick was the prehistoric coastal landscape where you collect fossils and plant life and curate a museum. it thought it sounded amazing but it was the least popular 😢
not gonna gloss over that 'travel van' and 'mechanic' mention in that one survey pack idea....having cars in the game to work on as mechanics would be cool ngl
Aquariums and zoo's interest me the most out of everything. I want to be able to have my sims take care of marine life. Especially have a place to cultivate an ecosystem :)
Having a functioning mall is on my list ever since The Sims 4 came out. The Sims 2 could do it.. come on EA..! Would be awesome if one of the next packs would have malls. The pack where you can tour with a van also really sounds interesting (but then give us regular cars as well, please). Especially if you could plan a retirement. More gameplay for elders please! They are unfortunately pretty much neglected in the game right now :(
The pack idea based on Island Paradise from sims 3 would be great if they gave us back the proper diving and ocean exploration instead of the rabbit hole that we got with Island Living. I also hope it would bring back house boats. I liked being able to move my home to another marina.
The options for expansion packs are so great, wtf do we get "romance" expansion packs instead of one of these? Also, the gritty city one, that's just Gotham City from Batman. If they give us Gotham City Sims version, I will lose my mind and stop complaining for a couple of months.
Create a world is literally what ive been wanting from the start. Just give me a blank slate world like in sims 2 (desert concrete grass or dirt) and let me put my own objects and lots -.- I agree with what someone said i think by build a world they dont mean create a world they mean fill up a bad world we give you
I love because all of this sounds wonderful if they are able to do it, but we know they are gonna do a half-assed buggy attempt and then sell it for $40.
As much as I wish they would stop making packs, I have to say that these are at least interesting me quite a lot. The dystopian options seem fun and unique and the more grounded ones are leaning towards historical which I love as a history nerd. If EA are going to carry on making DLC for this game, I'd rather something very out-there and unique with mostly new features over something to expand our broken base-game like Lovestruck.
Survey completed! Some of the ideas that are there are awesome and I'm very interested. Feeling better about the sims after reading what may be in store.
Doesn't 'build a world or neighborhood' mean building the houses? They didn't say 'create a world' But I would absolutely love to have a create a world tool in TS4
Yea it seems like a sneaky way to phrase it. Now even i dont think the devs are this scummy. But i could imagine someone being like "here you go i gave you an empty world. Now you got Build a World. Check! ✅" What else is next?!?" But yea no, i think build a world means build a world outside of lots. Especially since they could've just said "empty lots upon release" or "a new erase all buildable lots option" to be clearer.
I read it as enjoying making all the houses and getting to see the whole town built up and populated. I like popping in houses and townies and seeing the whole neighborhood come together.
Yeah, that's why there's not going to be a Sims 5, IMHO. That's the direction they want to push the game. History shows, they favor the minority of players over the majority one. They'll justify it as long as some players fall for it.
@suzannev12 I mean this with all kindness, but I think you overestimate how complacent the Sims playerbase is. I wouldn't be surprised if the actual majority are children and well-off people who don't mind spending money on the drop of a dime for better perks. They are clearly following where the money goes.... ):
It isn't a paid battlepass. But how long untill they start to make us pay for it? No one wan't this sh*t and most of us clearly were mad about it the first time. Yet they are still trying to push it.
I mean it depends on value, if it’s less than a stuff pack (or the same) but comes with items with new interactions/animations, it might actually be worth it. I will keep referring it to what we already pay to see if it’s worth it & then decide
I just tried to do the survey, when asked about the scenarios I chose the "post-apocalyptic" one as my favourite with the "van-life" a close second. The next question was going to expand on one of the items chosen but instead of the "post-apocalyptic" which I favoured they chose the "van-life". I tried to go back a page but it wouldn't so I tried to re-do the survey only to be told that I had already completed it. I think we will be getting an elders pack and everything else is just for show. xxx
i had a problem getting the survey to display properly, so tried a different browser. it also said i had already completed it. i hope they sort out a chance for more people to fill it out.
I went all the way and since you can choose up to 2 answers for the favoured packs, you'll get the same thread of questions for both of your picks. So you could have kept going instead of going back. Their system is clearly broken sadly, too bad you could not re do it. There are workarounds (different IP adress I guess) but it's very troublesome, just for a survey
A lot of the pack descriptions focus on swimming/water activities/lifeguards and babysitters so i wouldnt be surprised if we got some sort of summery themed pack
OMG! I don't want to be a total simp but I'm so excited! Create a World? Monarchy? 80s/90s pack? Sign me the F up! If they really bring out a CaW feature, that's my top wish. Because it would finally allow us builders to connect different lots and create huge structures.
Oeacn one sounds amazing going underwater like the sims 3 we need more scary ugliy mermaid creations of a haunted graveyard found in the Oeacn, krakens and sharksa
Back in the Sims 3, we had create a world, and I really missed drawing lots--yes actually drawing lots--like drawing a room. And as for color will, if they can do it for pets, they can do it for us--after all we got sliders, so I think they can do a color wheel. Create a world would be a builder's dream! I would never get out of build mode for a long time. Hey, wait a minute!! Didn't they just show that 100-tile house in a meme or gif not too long ago? That's a hint if there ever was one. Oh, please let it be a create a world.
A prehistorical pack? Count me in. Also, the luxury pack sounds interesting - there is no concept of luxury in sims' lives right now so this would actually be a new and interesting feature.
I want criminal careers and burglars, if they are worried about snowflakes they could just have an “off button” the sims was great for its chaos that no longer exists.
I so voted the criminal gritty town because it sounds extremely exciting and now I really want it :D It also gives some "get to work" refresh/expansion vibes.
I would rather it not look and feel modern. It specified in the detailed description when I picked it that it’s traditional and modern monarchy. Not just modern
I wish we could get an NPC manager, where you have an interface in the Manage World section, to be able select a sim or allocate a sim to each NPC type/role in each town.
I think this game could benefit from them making a "2.0" version of the game- the same game, just with a modern engine etc. It happens a lot with console games for example and when the PS5 first dropped and was impossible to get, Sony made ps4 and ps5 versions of their games and it would import all your saved data. This way everything they want to do would actually be possible and work and they wouldn't have to create a new game and players wouldn't start from scratch.
If they implemented a Create A World, I might actually LOVE the Sims 4. I need space for my Sims and I just don’t think I have the space for just how many I have 😂. I got multiple families cause I get bored with just one.
"Dive into a vibrant ocean world and explore hidden treasures, meet marine life, build your seaside dream, and sail between charming coastal towns. Every dive and voyage offers new discoveries." You mean the things that should have been included in Island Living? This feels like My First Pet Stuff 2.0.
Yesterday’s update broke my game even more, it’s unplayable now. Loading HH glitch still there and infinite loading screen. I’m officially done with the game and will be uninstalling and just keep up with the news.
I can’t get into my saved games. I just get a never ending loading screen. I was looking forward to getting the kits but it looks like that isn’t happening
@@daringone657 Yep same me too gonna pass. The patch notes said they updated the loading screens to be faster but whatever they did broke it so it lever loads now
Just did the survey! I think a 80’s/90’s retro world could be cool if done right with like a touch of modern. Loving the idea of the kids camp but that sounds a lot more appealing as a game pack.
I picked the crime pack and the ocean life pack but I want all of them honestly. I noticed there wasn’t a bands or fairies or pottery pack option. That’s either really worrying or maybe soon to come.
I want more criminal opportunities and more chance of sims being fined for some misbehaviors or going to prison (rabbit hole) In prison the sim can be there for 6hours to 3 sim days depending on the crime. Another sim in the family can call a lawyer and is a chance if the lawyer gets your sim out may have to pay small fine or a large fine. Or the lawyer failed the and sim stays in jail until that sim's time is up. We already have the law career in the sims.
I actually took the survey a couple hours ago, and I would love to see a cyberpunk future pack and the criminal one. These two themes (while I know these are not promised to actually happen) got me really excited, and thinking about how it would really change gameplay for not only myself, but other players as well.
The monarchy one sounds like they would be incorporating some elements of Sims Medieval. I loved Sims Medieval (and wish EA would do an upgrade the same way they did with Sims 3 so, I can play it again! 😭) so, I would love for them to incorporate some of its elements into an expansion pack. It was really whimsical and different so, I'd enjoy experiencing something like it in the Sims again.
I said in the survey, the cyberpunk and the criminal/vigilante to combine into this retro futuristic world, bringing back old Technology into a dystopian futuristic feel. (ALSO to do more with aliens!!)
I think the EP themes sound super cool and all will likely come to TS4 eventually since we have many more years with the game apparently BUT what do they have against giving us bands already!?😭😭😭
I would really like some more options to transport or entertain infants. I would pay to have an infant swing or jump station, we also need strollers, because the back carriers never work for longer term activities
In my opinion, the second Island Living one sounds like that should be a refresh, and the marine archaeology one sounds like it could be a joint refresh between Island Living and Jungle Adventure. Adding on to those would be nice, though I wouldn’t be apposed to a Caribbean world that somehow worked in more Princess Cordelia lore, the Maxis gallery family, and pirates (ghosts?).
I need to see successful releases of at least 3 dlc, not just kits, without game breaking issues before I engage in a survey about spending more gifted cdkeys on this game lol. Disclaimer aside, its interesting to see what direction this game could go and where other simmers stand on the topic. Surely, no one is going to support a paid battle pass set up, hopefully. This whole relationship between EA and simmers could be studied tbh. It's so interesting to say the least.
We need MORE ACTIVE careers!! With new lot types and of course more worlds. Even create our world that our Sim will go to work! If they decided to support Sims 4 from now on, they gotta do this the right way !
TS4 is a live service game now. They’ll start charging for content piece by piece like the TS3 store the second project Rene comes out. Tbh, I wouldn’t be shocked if they eventually go away from selling packs altogether. They don’t care if people have spent thousands of dollars on the game, they will start giving pack content out as free updates and selling every piece of CAS or BB Content à la carte. They don’t care about gameplay
I agree, this game is about to be 11years old, it’s time for an upgrade. The game is already bugged out and it’s been 11years of them not being able to truly fix it, so how is this new stuff really going to work well. The sim fandom is so easily swayed. People complain everyday about the bugged out game , yet so excited for this it just doesn’t make sense.
The thing is, all the ideas on the survey sounded great … on paper. But alas, EA has a proven track record of taking great concepts and making them dull, glitchy and unsatisfying. I want to be excited SO bad for this, but 10 years of woe weighs heavily 😂 I am more interested to hear more about what reworking ‘the engine’ means? Are we looking at core code rewrites to fix the spaghetti code that has plagued this game since birth?
I just took the survey. I would love to have a royal expansion pack. I dont want to rely on mods for literally everything. My favorite mods are the mods that expand gameplay not create entirely new ideas. Like I love expanded mermaids because it expands on gameplay already in base game. Like if they made a royalty expansion pack then a mod could greatly expand on that gameplay & there would be even more to enjoy.
I'm 67% sure that "create a world" was a miscommunication and they simply meant clearing all the builds in an area and building all the lots in a world up from scratch -- like Newcrest. Or at least, this is the excuse they'll use when they fail to deliver and remind us that the things they've already done 15 years ago are "just too difficult" and our expectations are "unrealistic"
I love the modern monarchy expansion idea! Along with the summer camp expansion idea! It sounds like adding a lot of gameplay, worlds, and CAS that are sorely needed in the sims! (And I’m a loser for monarchy gameplay)
As for story writing - I'm not into the occult so any story writing I would do would be something along the lines of a snap opera In fact, I'm in the process of abandoning such an idea on console as EVEN WITH the Lovestruck Pack, consoles don't give me the freedom of creativity I would have by playing them on the PC instead as there's Mods to help me out I'm even setting up blogs & soon TH-cam channels for the SFW versions of each of my soap operas (The NSFW versions will naturally go elsewhere (Like porn tube sites with blogs on LoversLab) since those would violate TH-cam's TOS 😂)
There Expansion Pack "pitches" sound more like really good spin-off games than things that fit naturally into Sims 4. Maybe the oceanic expansion could expand on Mermaids, the criminal one could expand crime and cops. But some of the others I am like....this would be great as a spin off game. Even with a 90s theme, I'd want house phones and the newspaper and such. Not the current modern sims injected into some experience that doesn't fit with the rest of the game.
I would never even have /dreamed/ of the extreme environment post-apocalyptic survival in the Sims 4, but I would /kill/ for it. (...but then, I'm also a really big fan of Project Zomboid, so that's very much up my alley anyway)
I don’t think they mean we are getting create a world, I just think they are talking about putting different lots into a neighborhood, to change it. Though it would be nice if they made it where we could actually create a neighborhood.
the van life one is so funny because where is the van gonna go😭
They’d probably base it off of the US… I could see them implementing some singular lots along the way rather than open neighborhoods, like gas stations, camp grounds, UFO sites… who knows
Hopefully this will mean we'll be getting car's
@@elizabethroman8351 probably not, if this hinted towards cars it would definitely be in the description
into the loading screen :)
😂🤣🤣🤣🤣exactly!
Create-A-World would be an absolute dream come true!!! I can see myself spending HOURS building a world and finally enjoying the game again.
@@ronathebear I would love to create a midnight hollow type of world tbh
Same I’d create a better southeast Asian world then Tomarang
REALLLLLL
I know it is and I was hoping that something like this would happen! I look forward to creating my own world because then we could build malls, stores, build a portal to some mythical land, explore History in a time machine, create characters such as fairies, ogres, and others. I look forward to seeing this in the future!
Would be my dream also ❤
"What must a pack include for you to consider buying? Select up to three" is such a blatant display of their laziness because I wanted to select almost all of them because an Expansion pack SHOULD include almost all of them.
That's exactly what I was thinking! It's impossible to select just three options because a decent expansion should include pretty much all of them.
How fun would it be to have playable criminal and vigilante careers!! Immidiately thought of Gotham, man this could be fun
exactly, i chose this one because i think this would make the game so much more realistic and give so much more gameplay aspects. and we have no packs that is remotely close to this

Create a World is definitely possible in TS4 - there’s a modder already working on it in fact. It’s TwistedMexi and his TOOL mod is already a good example of how that could work
If they're creating a new world for every expansion, it's clear they have the world-building tools. They just need to share those tools with modders!
@@OliverTwist-fc3xc Good point! I guess the biggest obstacle is making it user friendly and intuitive enough for a good portion of players
Yeah but I think what's in mind isn't that
T.O.O.L only allows you to build off a lot. It doesn't allow you to create your own world
Sadly For rent completely broke that CAW mod, I hope TMexi will find a workaround😢
They did, there was an update it works fine, in my game atpeast @AiryFei
It feels like they are separating content(i.e. island activities) into separate packs, to maximise profit 🙃
And to maximize the years the can work on the sims 4 to yet again maximize profit lol
They've been doing that for years now 😂😭
Nothing new. That's EA at its finest. Did you know EA is being run by Mr. Krabs?
One of the options for expansion pack ideas on the list is "modern monarchy". However, I still wish we could get a full medieval expansion pack and have it be a separate world, kind of like how Batuu or Strangerville works. I don't want modern royalty!

A Sims Medieval refresh with TS4 graphics would be *chefs kiss*

Based on previous surveys, I'd have to say yes.
That’s the actual game loop

I need that one and also the cyberpunk one 😭
Ha! That one was so funny, I only did the one Ha from Marcia Wallace's character from The Simpsons.

I would rather it not look and feel modern. It specified in the detailed description when I picked it that it’s traditional and modern monarchy. Not just modern
I wish we could get an NPC manager, where you have an interface in the Manage World section, to be able select a sim or allocate a sim to each NPC type/role in each town.
0 mention of occults in those EP ideas. WE 👏WANT👏FAIRIES👏
That’s true.. They didn’t have any occult options. I live for occults.
@@Princess_0f_Trees Same.... :( Occults were mentioned in the first part of the quiz but not after....
I think this game could benefit from them making a "2.0" version of the game- the same game, just with a modern engine etc. It happens a lot with console games for example and when the PS5 first dropped and was impossible to get, Sony made ps4 and ps5 versions of their games and it would import all your saved data. This way everything they want to do would actually be possible and work and they wouldn't have to create a new game and players wouldn't start from scratch.
If they implemented a Create A World, I might actually LOVE the Sims 4. I need space for my Sims and I just don’t think I have the space for just how many I have 😂. I got multiple families cause I get bored with just one.
Ok, all these expansion ideas, I would actually buy it if they execute them well. Underwater adventure, distopian life. Dude
"Dive into a vibrant ocean world and explore hidden treasures, meet marine life, build your seaside dream, and sail between charming coastal towns. Every dive and voyage offers new discoveries." You mean the things that should have been included in Island Living? This feels like My First Pet Stuff 2.0.
Sleepaway Camp, Modern Monarchy and Sims' fate in the city >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Yesterday’s update broke my game even more, it’s unplayable now. Loading HH glitch still there and infinite loading screen. I’m officially done with the game and will be uninstalling and just keep up with the news.
I can’t get into my saved games. I just get a never ending loading screen. I was looking forward to getting the kits but it looks like that isn’t happening
@@daringone657 Yep same me too gonna pass. The patch notes said they updated the loading screens to be faster but whatever they did broke it so it lever loads now
@@AilaK_ not too many people seem to be complaining about the same issue though, so I’m worried they are not going to fix it.
@@daringone657 Probably not 😔
Just did the survey! I think a 80’s/90’s retro world could be cool if done right with like a touch of modern. Loving the idea of the kids camp but that sounds a lot more appealing as a game pack.
I picked the crime pack and the ocean life pack but I want all of them honestly. I noticed there wasn’t a bands or fairies or pottery pack option. That’s either really worrying or maybe soon to come.
I wanted to see/use Cars, Rock-a-Billy Fashion, expand seniors, expand babies, motel/hotels, and theme parks.
Finally adding Create a World in The Sims 4 would actually be nice to see.
No joke.
Seriously.
Can we just say all for all those EP suggestions.
I want more criminal opportunities and more chance of sims being fined for some misbehaviors or going to prison (rabbit hole) In prison the sim can be there for 6hours to 3 sim days depending on the crime. Another sim in the family can call a lawyer and is a chance if the lawyer gets your sim out may have to pay small fine or a large fine. Or the lawyer failed the and sim stays in jail until that sim's time is up. We already have the law career in the sims.
I actually took the survey a couple hours ago, and I would love to see a cyberpunk future pack and the criminal one. These two themes (while I know these are not promised to actually happen) got me really excited, and thinking about how it would really change gameplay for not only myself, but other players as well.
Is there a way where we can see the result of the most voted EP ideas? I am curious on where the ocean world sits at currently.
the thing i want most is cars hopefully they will come to the game
why cars
@@hiebleaux I really miss having them
Some of the pack ideas could most definitely be the much needed “refreshes” we need!!!
The monarchy one sounds like they would be incorporating some elements of Sims Medieval. I loved Sims Medieval (and wish EA would do an upgrade the same way they did with Sims 3 so, I can play it again! 😭) so, I would love for them to incorporate some of its elements into an expansion pack. It was really whimsical and different so, I'd enjoy experiencing something like it in the Sims again.
I said in the survey, the cyberpunk and the criminal/vigilante to combine into this retro futuristic world, bringing back old Technology into a dystopian futuristic feel. (ALSO to do more with aliens!!)
I think the EP themes sound super cool and all will likely come to TS4 eventually since we have many more years with the game apparently BUT what do they have against giving us bands already!?😭😭😭
Can you imagine a cyber punk world that is underwater?
I would really like some more options to transport or entertain infants. I would pay to have an infant swing or jump station, we also need strollers, because the back carriers never work for longer term activities
I truly appreciate the way you deliver news. Entertaining and to the point, and always just right on time lol! Thanks for what you do Mr. Pixelade🎉🎉🎉
In my opinion, the second Island Living one sounds like that should be a refresh, and the marine archaeology one sounds like it could be a joint refresh between Island Living and Jungle Adventure. Adding on to those would be nice, though I wouldn’t be apposed to a Caribbean world that somehow worked in more Princess Cordelia lore, the Maxis gallery family, and pirates (ghosts?).
WHAT ABOUT BANDS OR SINGING!!! I'm so sick of waiting for something so simple....
Omg. A apocalyptic world 😍😍😍
Caravans travelling…. And mechanic skill?!?
I really would love these too. Rags to riches and building cars ?!
Modern royalty and the kids camp sounds like so much fun!😊
I need to see successful releases of at least 3 dlc, not just kits, without game breaking issues before I engage in a survey about spending more gifted cdkeys on this game lol. Disclaimer aside, its interesting to see what direction this game could go and where other simmers stand on the topic. Surely, no one is going to support a paid battle pass set up, hopefully. This whole relationship between EA and simmers could be studied tbh. It's so interesting to say the least.
We need MORE ACTIVE careers!! With new lot types and of course more worlds. Even create our world that our Sim will go to work! If they decided to support Sims 4 from now on, they gotta do this the right way !
That storybook kit should have come with Growing Together.
TS4 is a live service game now.
They’ll start charging for content piece by piece like the TS3 store the second project Rene comes out.
Tbh, I wouldn’t be shocked if they eventually go away from selling packs altogether. They don’t care if people have spent thousands of dollars on the game, they will start giving pack content out as free updates and selling every piece of CAS or BB Content à la carte.
They don’t care about gameplay
I just want a new game!!!! Sims 4 is so broken on conceal and don't want to have to re buy everything just to get it on PC
I agree, this game is about to be 11years old, it’s time for an upgrade. The game is already bugged out and it’s been 11years of them not being able to truly fix it, so how is this new stuff really going to work well. The sim fandom is so easily swayed. People complain everyday about the bugged out game , yet so excited for this it just doesn’t make sense.
The thing is, all the ideas on the survey sounded great … on paper. But alas, EA has a proven track record of taking great concepts and making them dull, glitchy and unsatisfying. I want to be excited SO bad for this, but 10 years of woe weighs heavily 😂 I am more interested to hear more about what reworking ‘the engine’ means? Are we looking at core code rewrites to fix the spaghetti code that has plagued this game since birth?
I just took the survey. I would love to have a royal expansion pack. I dont want to rely on mods for literally everything. My favorite mods are the mods that expand gameplay not create entirely new ideas. Like I love expanded mermaids because it expands on gameplay already in base game. Like if they made a royalty expansion pack then a mod could greatly expand on that gameplay & there would be even more to enjoy.
I'm 67% sure that "create a world" was a miscommunication and they simply meant clearing all the builds in an area and building all the lots in a world up from scratch -- like Newcrest. Or at least, this is the excuse they'll use when they fail to deliver and remind us that the things they've already done 15 years ago are "just too difficult" and our expectations are "unrealistic"
wait all the pack ideas are so cool hold on i want em all
I love the modern monarchy expansion idea! Along with the summer camp expansion idea! It sounds like adding a lot of gameplay, worlds, and CAS that are sorely needed in the sims! (And I’m a loser for monarchy gameplay)
the apocalypse one seems the most interesting but it's probably going to end up being another strangerville type deal
Create-A-World sounds interesting. I'd go for future/dystopian/post-apocalyptic kind of vibe. But that's just me.
As for story writing - I'm not into the occult so any story writing I would do would be something along the lines of a snap opera
In fact, I'm in the process of abandoning such an idea on console as EVEN WITH the Lovestruck Pack, consoles don't give me the freedom of creativity I would have by playing them on the PC instead as there's Mods to help me out
I'm even setting up blogs & soon TH-cam channels for the SFW versions of each of my soap operas (The NSFW versions will naturally go elsewhere (Like porn tube sites with blogs on LoversLab) since those would violate TH-cam's TOS 😂)
There Expansion Pack "pitches" sound more like really good spin-off games than things that fit naturally into Sims 4. Maybe the oceanic expansion could expand on Mermaids, the criminal one could expand crime and cops. But some of the others I am like....this would be great as a spin off game. Even with a 90s theme, I'd want house phones and the newspaper and such. Not the current modern sims injected into some experience that doesn't fit with the rest of the game.
Finally adding Create a World in The Sims 4 would actually be nice to see.
I would never even have /dreamed/ of the extreme environment post-apocalyptic survival in the Sims 4, but I would /kill/ for it. (...but then, I'm also a really big fan of Project Zomboid, so that's very much up my alley anyway)
all of those sims pack themes seem good honestly
Imagine adding a battlepass system and finally adding create a world after 10 years 🤭
For some reason it’s not allowing me to do the survey!! It keeps saying I’ve already done it when I haven’t :((
All my Rewards went missing with the last Update.😢😢😢
LOL EA is trying to bring me back. Create-A-World would be a dream come true 😅
Well we already had servos before into the future came out, so they may do the same thing
I don’t think they mean we are getting create a world, I just think they are talking about putting different lots into a neighborhood, to change it. Though it would be nice if they made it where we could actually create a neighborhood.
I want cars transportation I am sick of walking everywhere.
I just clicked the survey but it wasn't loading, so I refreshed, and now it says the survey is complete...
I miss cops and robbers and the security alarms.
I've been waiting 9 million years for create a world to come back oml
Where's the "complete game" option?
#10.
“I’m interested but would wait until all the bugs are fixed.”
Is an answer I would have loved to see them provide on this survey. 😅
survey gets blasted if the browser tab gets accidentally closed and cant retake or restart it
I voted for the crime and law-fighting pack, and the travel van pack. We need more off-colour things in this game, and vehicles that aren't bikes.
Where is this survey
Create a world and the potential cyberpunk pack are interesting but still no open world means I probably won’t be redownloading :/
Game was working fine...now I cannot request a table when they go out to eat...😅😅😅😢😢
Imagine if Create- A- World was a base game feature. I can finally stop the main 3 altogether.
