The ability to see the houses before moving

joseiloaizach

I would like to see the houses before moving my Sims, like The Sims 3. I don't think it's hard to do it, the developers could use the same system that uses The Gallery.

What do you think?

You can select any empty house and select build to view it.

Very true.. it could be done better, but how I work around it, is that I just go into build mode from the map view and then go and look at the house that way.. it may take a few extra mins, but at least you get an idea if you like it or not. LOL.. half the time though, I tell myself, that I like the house ( which I'm looking at in build mode ), but it never fails.. I always seem to want to remodel with my own touches.. like more bathrooms, more bedrooms, knock out walls.. etc.

I know, but I mean when you start a new game or create a new family.

I would like to be able to go into an empty house and check it out also, sometimes it is just nice to see how it flows before you buy and move in....

The game should be about ease to play to some extent too and I said, "yes" when I saw the subject of this thread. Why should we have to go into any mode to view a house; it takes so much time to do things already and there is real life to consider/deal with as well. I would like to have a view feature on all the houses, even the ones occupied, because I might want to move them out. This would be a nice addition to the game. Nice and very useful thread.

Very often I build my own houses. I like them large enough to be able to maneuver the camera.
