The windows on the Hospital and Police station from th outside

«1
Look blacked out... Does this mean it's a rabbit hole that loads into automatic rooms for the hospital and police station cells, interview room etc

Hope that make seances. Either way I'm still so excited :):)

    I'm not sure what you mean but it could just be because i see the words "rabbit hole" and cry inside.
    It's kind of sad that I have to point out that anything I say is only just my opinion and may be a different one from someone else.

    The windows from the trailer of the Hospital and Police station look different from the 'useable' windows from buy mode.

    I'm guessing it's a rabbit hole that we build around and when you click on certain bits you load into a room...

    For example... When you wanna go into the police cells it's a loading screen from cells to interview room mayb?

    I'm guessing it does, hopefully its not, but its not a big deal to me either way. I'm just way to excited for the game.

    Oh I gotcha. I don't know if I'd like that. Loading screens within lots would sorely test my limits.

    loading screens between rooms? That's a death wish... maybe new windows. (he said hopefully.)

    I think the buildings are shells. I don't think we'll be able to customize the interiors and there are probably just a few playable areas.

    Oh! since it's jails and hospitals maybe they are shaded windows so that people cannot see in. Privacy and security.

    I can't see that they would make these venues to have loading screens between rooms.

    I think they're real Lots we can go to and change around. They wouldn't give us all this stuff with no room to build.

    The hospital has open windows. I think it's a security/privacy thing.

    I haven't played Sims 4 yet - when your at lot "A" in a neighborhood, and lot "B" is a community lot, can you guys see Sims inside those buildings? Sims going in and out of them? If not the design of these buildings may have something to do with that.

    I know the hospital has glass windows on top. I thought it was such a beautiful build. lol. Its definitely build mode. (however, the new art style makes things tricky, I once thought the "decor houses" were real.

    Nah I don't think so... that's what my windows do when I zoom out far enough. The game doesn't render windows at far distances for some reasons (even on ultra settings)

    Actually it looks like a graphics thing since we're far away even the station we're not able to see inside. I was going to say it happens with some of the other buildings.

    but then I guess it depends on the window and angle

    then there's the hospital

    Some windows are able to see through...

    and the Station no windows are see through.

    Those are new windows though. But the ones you can see through are already in game.

    My guess is that there's a few rabbit hole rooms, but the rooms with interactable objects / career rooms will be playable. I highly doubt they'd give us a full EP with just rabbit holes.

    Honestly I think it's just a 'frosted glass' set of windows. In the trailer they do show police wandering around in an office area, a prisoner getting a mugshot, interrogated and of course the jail cells. Same thing with the laboratory and hospital, they show things happening inside the buildings.
