My Wishlist

Hey guys! I have compiled a list of certain things that I wish to be in the game at some point. Right now the list is incomplete for now. Let me know what you think.

I basically want everything from TS2 lol or at least similar content. Also would like having entirely new content. I'm actually pretty excited about the comedian career. I'm already getting my one greatest demand, the butt slider! I can't wait to make some curvy sims!

I think all the skills and some careers you mentioned are already in-game but everything else would actually be nice to have.

Well most skills and careers have to come back, but now that the career list of TS4 is confirmed, I want the basic careers even more! There are is no Politics, Law Enforcement, Medical, etc.

I just don't understand this. The game has been shrunk down to small neighborhoods and loading screens, so why can't we have more content?

I agree with a lot of your wishlist. For me personally to add, it has to be vehicles... AT LEAST job carpooling.

I can't piece together the logic of sims only being able to walk off of lots to go to work when they can at least hop in a co-worker's car as they both head off to work together.

They cut so much. It only bothers me because with all of the cuts, we would have room for more of the small stuff. For example, everything has been shrunken down. Loading screens have been added. If this is the case, we should have way more than 8 careers.

I agree. I feel like I would be more okay with some of the cut backs, if I knew we would get some extra stuff. But maybe those will be surprises ??

My wish list would be to take everything about Sims 3 and make these advancements:

1) Progressive growth. Retain the life stages to control actions, but have The Sim grow/age as they mature through the life stage.
2) Multiple heights. We aren't all 5'10", so why are all of our sims? I would like to see multiple heights in each life stage.
3) Scalable clothes. Instead of being different objects for life stage and sex they should all be one object.
4) Purchasable clothes (no brainer).
5) Build objects. Build and design objects similar to Minecraft / LittleBigPlanet that sims could use such as chairs.
6) Large expansive worlds similar to GTA. I am ok with some rabbit holes if it makes the world appear larger.
7) Unique shaped lots, that are not predefined to a certain X by X dimensions.
8 ) Stock Market. Let the Sims make some money similar to GTA, might be random or might be driven by some type of story progression.
9) Unlimited sized household, as well as allowed on lot.
10) Weather and limited pets (Dogs/Cats) in the BASE package
11) Curved walls.
12) Ability to walk over books/trash on floor instead of around them.
13) Split levels, homes with foundations and garages
14) Daylight basements
15) Cutting down trees for fires and material (see #5).
16) Browse "online" store by having Sim visit a special lot (like a mall) where they can walk around and see/test the objects there...
17) Xbox 360 Game Controller support
18 ) Next generation graphics similar to GTA
19) Online component (100% optional) that would allow you to either visit/travel to your friends towns or live in a town with other players.
What else you guys got?
20) Simplified CAW built into World Editor for small things such as moving roads or large/scale terrain edits.
21) Emotions, although toned down (from The Sims 4)
22) New build tools for moving rooms, blueprints, etc. (from The Sims 4)
23) New CAS (from The Sims 4)
24) Casinos (thanks colton147!)
25) Sports (such as basketball, volleyball, tennis, etc.)

Wow. Okay for starters, somethings are difficult to input such as heights and gradual lifestages. You can build stuff in The Sims 4 with wood.

3. Explain number 3 to me please? What does it mean that clothes would be one object that's scalable? Are you saying each piece of clothing is one object that's scalable?

5. The woodworking tool now makes it available to craft statues (woohoo) and furniture, toilets, bathtubs. I doubt you can go out to your yard and cut down a tree, of course. If they let us collect wood I would guess you can either buy it from the table (like the inventors could buy scrap) or perhaps go to a specific set place where you could collect it like the junkyard did for inventors.

9. How is this even feasible?

CAW made my head ache. That's one tool that they could dumb down to pre-school level, as far as I'm concerned. Would much prefer to have it in with the world editor, as you mention.

Heights also make it difficult to scale clothing and interactions, such as making out, hugging, etc

3) Scalable cloths means if I make a white t-shirt it should fit a sim toddler to elder, both male or female. It shouldn't have to be a different object, it should just scale to fit them. A good example, is one farming set on the Sims 3 Store that includes like 5 different pairs of overalls so that everyone can use them. So the value of the set is 100SP x 5 = 500SP when it really should be 100SP and one item on my hard drive.

5) The woodworking bench included is neat, but it is more like the Toy Machine or the Prism Art Studio than anything else. I am talking about where you can create custom furniture, like pick the number of drawers in the dresser, etc. Technology and games like this exist today.

9) This is definitely feasible from a programming POV. I would bet they are limiting it only so the game can run on 10+ year old PCs or due to performance issues. This is one thing that could probably been addressed had they elected to give the minimum effort required to optimize the game for 64-bit processors (you know like the ones found in your modern cell phone).

Yes its hard. But they had the budget of 100+ people @ 5 years. They could have figured it out. Its not impossible. I just want what I consider a next generation game...

Ok, I did understand it, then. I thought at first you were saying all clothes should be the same single object and couldn't wrap my brain around that concept.

I don't play minecraft so I didn't even realize you would do things quite so customized in it. I thought it was similar to The Sims where you choose to make a dresser and it pops out pretty much the same dresser for everyone (just an example since I don't know if they even had dressers in Minecraft).

CAS
1. Color wheel returned
2.More hair--never can be enough hair styles
3. Curly hair styles
4. More make-up
5. Change hand size. Wonder why you can change feet and not hands unless subtle changes take place but I have not noticed
6. More varied--natural walk styles-- I don't see making any Sims walk like they are goofy/drowsy
7. More variations on eye color (bet that is coming)

Expansions
1.Supernatural with real elves (not just the ears)- that have powers, werewolves, witches, warlocks, fairies, vampires, aliens
2. Generations ( I don't give a ham sandwich about toddlers, but I guessssss so.)
3. Showtime- I enjoyed the acrobats, magicians, and singers, would like to have the ability to host/perform concerts with a group of sims assigned to an instrument and playing together--could tie in with celebrity status from Late Night
4. Sports/Open for business
-Sims can be soccer, basketball, hockey players, boxers
-regular joe jobs to satisfy everyone nurse, doctors, teachers, law man
-cooking will be expanded to baker (includes the bakery available in Sims 3,)chef,
5. Country/farming- I think Facebook has proved that farming games are popular. Maybe they can combine the tractor, hen house, cows, beehive, horses (Pets Ep), and add barns, ability to grow crops such as corn etc. Mostly want this stuff so I can act out my cowboy story idea.
6. Futuristic- liked a lot of the gadgets and robots from into the future.

Miscellaneous
1. If they get cars open the door and get in
2. Ride the trolley
3. skate more places than on a rink
4. Bring kleptomaniac back and then the ability to wipe the floor of a Sim who stole from you
5. More varied dance styles, although I have only seen a little footage of this so far


I'm mostly excited to see what interactions go on between the Sims that we haven't seen yet.
