I guess they made the fire alarm object in the game and then decided not to code in the actual Fire Department NPCs? At least they then added in the actual fire prevention device to put out the fires.
Why not add Servos back to the game? I loved him in the original game. Some of the later versions became alittle too "human" for me but the original robot design was handy.

> Maybe they plan on adding back an interactive Firefighter career at some point ... that would be awesome
It should of been in Get To Work, Or maybe they'll make it a gamepack.
I don't use mods and fires in my game are very realistic. IMO we don't need firefighters. In past games my Sims usually had the fire out before they arrived anyway.
What she said... but I wouldn't mind some hot firefighters.. just saying.
Instead they were just rushing to release the game as fast as possible....
Remember the teaser trailer? the one with the social bunny, tragic clown and all that stuff? That teaser trailer was another example of how NOT to advertise a game.
Oh, neither would I, but if that happens, I hope there are a few hot lady firefighters while they're at it. *drools*
I love that! I'm so glad sims actually run AWAY from the fires and not TOWARDS them. And don't speak for everyone when it comes to missing features of this game. I want firefighters. I want to see these heroes in my game saving my sims lives just like they do in real life.
Umm, where did she speak for everyone else? She said in my opinion, yes she said heresay.. but this is the way the game was put out, and my sims don't need firefighters to put out a fire in this game.
@SweetieKaye yes hot firefighter girls would be great too

I'm looking forward to that NPC expansion pack...LOL...really miss not having old cleaning ladies sweeping my streets or old Crumplebottoms whacking my dating sims...
yes. That is too much work for them in base game. they rather focus more on gameplay, cas, build mode, and different interactions and emotions. In fact, there is no need of fire fighter in sims 4. ceiling already have sprinklers attached. Same as GTW, Get to work already has 3 new careers and retail aspects. Probably a GTW part 2 will include firefighters.
I reckon at the time of development it was decided that silly walks were more important. Either folks will have to buy them or they'll patch them in with a bunch of unwanted stuff to praise that they are "improving" the game. Too bad there is more praise for these "freebies" instead of comments along the lines of "What took you so long?"
That's everything in the game, isn't it? LOL
The smoke detector and the sprinkler have been there since the base game.

@AnnLee87 Of course it has something to do with this. SimGuruGrant himself confirmed that they didn't put in some NPCs because of the missing time.

You can't imagine the trouble i had to go through to find that XD But i remember how enraged i was at that time. because to me NPCs show love to detail and that's what a Simsgame needs.

@SimGuruGrant I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for taking time out of your life to answer our questions. I can't tell you how happy that makes me (and a lot of other simmers I'm sure) to know you guys really do listen to us and care.
Can you answer this question? I'm just curious as to why little things like npc service sims were removed (besides the maid and pizza delivery). It may seem insignificant but a lot of us are missing those things, and the npc service sims have always been there, it's sad that they are gone. I don't want my sim to have to fix everything herself!
Some we just ran out of time. We're taking notes and trying to fix it. Please keep offering your critiques and input so we can make the game you want.

I just hope they will put it back into the game asap. Also, put back burglars and police ffs!
You would have thought they would have included burgulars in GTW, just like they should have included extra lots...
