I am completely surprised by the assertion by the producer Sarah Holding regarding why was not added new models of beards for CAS in The Sims 4 until now. I wonder what this producer has in mind to say this sort of thing, especially considering that a good proportion of people are still discredited in The Sims 4. Sometimes I have the impression that the producers are abusing the intelligence of the people who buy all the games they create. I know several players who are fully capable of creating a new beard model or even a good quality clothing in The Sims 4 in less than two days.
I am not concerned whether there will be new beards in the game, I'm satisfied with the existing models. What makes me worried is this kind of misplaced assertion that ultimately only serves to further frustrate the players, especially those who are hopeless with respect to the fourth generation.

Hopefully they figure out a way for this not to happen.
They have. It's called Sims 5.
Although, I'm seriously worried they might take the lazy way out like they did with 2&3 and just build on the same plum engine.*shudders*
That person is right to ask such a question but the answer she gave to him is nothing he would expect. Surely it'd be easier to add facial just as how easy it should be when they put hair on a sim?
But it's 2015 and anybody can make a game, if they have the talent to do so, in many types of game engines such as Unreal, by themselves.
Another question we really need to ask in this thread is that did they waste all that money they earned just so they can salvage a failed project?
Isn't that sad and hilarious at the same time?
Wasn't TS4 meant to be better, more advanced? This again is another sign that this game is just quickly thrown together to make some money.
She also mentioned that it was ''a lot of work'' and ''expense'' to create different seating postures like for lounge chairs. Isn't the ''expensive'' and ''a lot of work'' not always the first thing we hear? It's sad.
Maybe it's more stable partially because it doesn't do as much.
Smells like SimsCity can't be offline all over again.
I sold my soul after I got in the Sims frnachise
It's clear: The Sims 4's engine and quickly thrown together tech isn't supporting the game it should support. Explains a lot.
Getting a bit tired of the constant excuses. CC creators and Modders working their plum off to make amazing mods and CC, but EA can't do it? It's a shame. And again: via twitter. No communication on the forums, just all twitter chatter.
@rudy8292 twitter then cay delete unwanted posts at anytime unlike the forum... then is more easy to speak where they have full control over the users(don't have any rules to follow than they own desires).
Graham spoke up and said with a completely straight face: "The Sims 4 provides a great foundation for the future."
I know how people will be forced to lie for damage control but this is just dumb now. THE GURUS have confirmed that the game's engine is so limiting that it can't even handle new animations for a lounge chair.
A LOUNGE CHAIR.
How in the world are they gonna put stuff like toddlers or pets if the engine can't even handle new sitting animations?
That photo is amazing!
Wasn't it supposed to be a "great" base game made specifically to be expanded and to add everything we wanted easily?
How are we supposed to trust them? Everything now is "too hard" or "too expensive" or both.
If they are not able to bring long chairs back because the animations for it would be too expensive what are we supposed to expect from this game?
All my creations are CC free.
Well she said that when it came to beards the tech is limiting compared to Sims 3, so it might take a while to get more beards x) Lol.
But when it comes to lounge chairs it is more like: They are so expensive to make and require different animations, so blablablabla.
It's basically the same excuse we keep hearing. And if they indeed already can't even deliver beards (cc creators can do it since day one) there goes the hope for toddlers and the rest. Because you know, animations and stuff. It's so expensive and time intensive, it's just limiting. Uhu.
I wonder where all the money went to. Titanfall?
You really need to stop being so insulting to players who actually like the game. If you don't that's fine. But we are neither blind, nor followers just because we enjoy the Sims 4.
this make me think "where maxis is hiring they developers"??? from middle school??? or maybe elementary school grade???, for things like that be "too difficult, who was the awesome person behind sims 4 engineer?probably was that guy
this guy probably was the one behind sims 4 engineer :P
Do you have a degree in IT? Have you ever worked on game development before? I'm really interested to know.
At the same time I urge to check out The sims 1 again, where sims could just sit or not sit, they slept in their bed dead as loggs - but still it was ouzing with charm
I like how whenever someone takes a jab at a TS4 cheerleader they're all "OMG STOP BEING SO MEAN GUYS!" but when a TS4 cheerleader gets aggressive and writes paragraphs insulting people who like the older games it's A-OK and they totally get away with it thanks to some good old fashioned favoritism.
Hooray for double standards!
