Also leaked from the survey was a few descriptions of The Sims 4:
May I remind you that the survey was used to ask people which of these features they found the most appealing, so there is a good chance that many of these will not be included in the actual game. Nor do we know that this survey is a reliable source of information.
Instead of Sims that live moment-to-moment with little/no memory, the new Sims game introduces meaningful possibilities that stem from your choices, and these choices can ripple into the future. Decisions relating to everything from interactions and objects to clothing and environments open up new gameplay options. A stylish house, flirtatious mood, and exciting event could lead to a sing-a-long that inspires a candlelit dinner and an intimate night between two admiring Sims. As you play, new possibilities relevant to your choices will continually emerge, adding greater realism and meaning to The Sims and worlds you create.
The Sims’ ability to feel and express deeper, richer emotions will bring a new level of immersion to your Sims experience. Through rich audio and video detail, your Sim’s emotions are vividly expressed in the way he or she walks, talk and interacts with the world. New unique interactions become available based on the emotional state of your Sim. You can create environments and objects that affect your Sim’s moods, and through Sim-to-Sim interactions and skill building you can discover and play with every facet of your Sim’s inner and outer life.
The Sims world is designed for creative experimentation. Experiment to see what kind of homes, people and personalities you can create. An artistically inspired room and accompanying wardrobe can inspire your Sims to greater height of art. See how far you can push your Sims by putting him or her into situations to experience new depths of love, anger, and despair, among numerous other moods. Explore a world that empowers you to control and push your creativity, and your Sims, further than ever before.

I've copied this information from another thread on this forum. Adding that most of this things may be avaible in ''offline experience'' with the game...what do you think? Is it even possible?

I doubt there will by official mods from EA, but they will probably continue the custom content as they are doing with TS3 now. However if they were smart they would sell the mods if they chose to produce them.

That's exactly what I was thinking about! How much profit they could get from it...and fans would get what they want without worrying that they will risk downloading some cc which could bug their game.

I would still take a risk, I will not buy anything from sims if I can legally get it for free else where.

Well, I had many adventures with modes avaiable on the internet...many times I had to uninstall lots of my content just to get rid of the problem. I think you have to know a really trusted to be competent sims modes creator to risk your game with this kind of content.

I've had a some errors in the past, but I'm at the point where I trust my ability to install trusted things, and if not I'm organized enough to know what went wrong and where to find it on my computer.

Well, I have to admit this organized part is my weakness lol. Now I have a few sites I do trust to be reliable but sill I chose to install one or two things, test it and later on if everything work fine start to look for more content. It's the best method for me...for now. I'll try to organize my cc diffrently...I'll tell how it worked .

I have to go and dream about winning shiny laptop with sims 4 preorder. See ya tomorrow.

I just love the stuff this girl made- sims 2 looks great after she works with it, hope for even better possibilities in sims 4. Just to not make it an offtop .

I had to rework my organization system which was in the pain in the butt, but was well worth it since it improved my game performance. I like to install in bulk and then test with Delphy.

Coming back to the sims 4 mods. What if EA and Maxis where about to give us such a tools to create and modify our own and already made content that it will put to the end the ''pay fan'' sites with sims cc? If it really will be so easy to create things on your own? And then they could gain more profits from sellable mods/content which could actually bring brand new things to modify in the game. I'm quite curious about this one.

Kind of like that program in TS1? Also I doubt a program like that will ever put an end to pay sites or other free sites, people will download what they are not skilled enough to do or laziness.

Yes, kind of. Being lazy enought to be ready to pay for fan content...for some for sure it works. Personally I would prefere to make my own content, or if something will be really beautiful then I would download it but only if it'll be free.

You can get any content for free.

Not any, there're still pay sites with sims cc which are using Sims 3 and Sims 2 game code as if it was theirs. It's against law but still EA seems to do nothing about it. They even cooperate with one of such sites-the sims resource. Maybe from this site alone they do have some cash but what about others? Who knows... I would be quite pissed off if somebody decided to sell my own hard work as if it was theirs...

Nah, the modders will always find a way to edit the game. And the paysites are stupid. B)

For every pay site the is a site offering the EXACT same content for free. Just browse around here: http://www.reddit.com/r/thesimscc/wiki/ccsources

Thanks for sharing ^^. To tell you the truth I was too lazy to search much for ''credit''content. I searched once but then I came up with some Russian website...there were some cc like that of course but finding download was kind of tricky lol.

Google translate can make such a situation into a hilarious event! Use Google Translate! rights reserved. Lol.

with that link it is a giant list of blogs and websites, the one I use most from that list is this one:

You can also ask the community if you are looking for something specific, I've never had a problem finding something from them.
