What.. The.. OK I said that if this pack would not take the best feature of TS3 paradise Island, that it would be the deal breaker for me.
Ooooh the sims 4... It all went wrong from the start and there is no way to hide it.
More than anything else, that is what i was excited for!!! i loved in The Sims 3 how you could go underwater and explore. I dont even know if something like this could be added later. UUUUGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!
Could u also share the source?
Could be useful for other simmers as well.
I have no further words to explain how I feel about this. I should not be surprised actually, but as a loyal simmer I always hold hope for the better. The sims 4 is one giant let down when it comes to included features in new Packs.
I knew there would be a draw back...tsk, TS4 still never fails to disappoint me...If it's a stupid rabbit hole and the game couldn't handle it...WHY did you include it?! Why couldn't you just....not add it to avoid this?
Snorkelling doesn't look like a rabbit hole, though, and there are reefs to snorkel at. I'm assuming that'll work with first-person mode too I can live with a deep-see diving rabbithole if I can first-person snorkel at a reef.

Firstly, being underwater, shouldn't it be an eel hole?
Secondly, I never saw the appeal of scuba diving. After one or two times, it was the same thing over and over again. Players constantly complain about the boring, repetitive actions in the game yet, scuba diving, one of the most repetitive actions in Ilsa Paradiso, is pined for like a long lost friend. Island Living has far too many other fun and exciting things to see and do then to write it off because they didn't repeat a boring action.

I didn't know they go underwater when snorkeling. I just want them to explore underwater. Deep or not.
Don't understand tho why scuba diving is a rabbit hole because there usually isn't rabbit holes in sims 4 but we'll see. I would expect them to just not include it at all. Like what's the point of becoming a diving instructor if we don't see our sims do anything?

There are lots of rabbit holes in this game. School, work, concerts and other events. One more shouldn't be a surprise.

Oh, good I always felt like scuba diving itself was pretty repetitive in that pack and didn't bother with it in anymore in that pack compared to the other stuff. Wasn't really expecting a 2.0 version of IP in IL. Seeing other sims snorkel and doing it looks fun.

Yeah work and school are rabbit holes but i don't think any new careers added to eps are rabbit holes. They're usually semi active.
And I don't think we have concerts in the game or unless I missed that
It’s probably a rabbit hole that leads to a secret lot, like the ones we have already. That’s what I am looking forward to seeing! Merland! (Or Mersea?)
Playtesting - not just tabletop games and card games any more. Really that should have been playtested in Beta and not [img]just with accounting and marketing but actual players. https://i.imgur.com/t48COW6.jpg[/img]

So I went to the source and found this:
"So, there is no active diving except snorkeling. I didn’t see how it works."
Based on that, I think there will be diving in form of snorkeling , but if you want to scuba diving, complete with the gear, you can only do that through buoy, which is a rabbit hole.
That's sad and disappointing. Even if this is something that can be considered repetitive and boring after a while, it would still be gameplay. Example: I don't think people who own Outdoor Retreat go camping often but they might every now and then. I don't think people who own Jungle Adventure explore often but they might every now and then. It's still something fun to do whenever you want.
With TS3 IP pack, you can build your own dive lots. It was a little complicated as it had to be fit for whatever spot you built it on w/ deep enough water and could easily glitch your sim out of the water if not placed just right. I still enjoy having my sims scuba dive in that game. I didn't expect that level of detail in this pack... but maybe one spot for it in the new world. Oh well
It's nice our sims can still snorkel and as mentioned, first-person view will be cool to use with this.
I don’t really hate that because as much as I love Island Paradise, it would lag horribly whenever I dived or used the house boat, which was all the time.

Sims can still snorkel in the water and we see them dive in it.
