Hi All,
It's been quite a while since there was a destination world added to the Sims 4.
Do you think it's time for a new addition?
I'd love to see a coastal inspired town, country inspired town and a small 'village' inspired town.
My sims don't always want to go camping in Granite Falls! How about yours?

or a caribbean coastal village like the virgin islands or mexico or cuba.
or an asian-style or polynesian-style coastal village.
or cold, cold-save-the-polar-bears coastal village.
However, I think it is time the whole world structure is given a makeover in this game.
all the current worlds should be named as towns and they should connect together under one big map that is called a world.
Like a world having different towns. Sims can travel normally between towns but only active sims can travel between worlds. Townies of world one should never be seen in world two.
The current structure of colorless map should be ditched, the circular world icons should be ditched. A real colorful map should be used where all the current worlds are connected to each other as towns. When I say connected means something like this where each color represents one of the current worlds.
I think this would really enhance the illusion that our current 'worlds' are actually worlds and not just 'neighborhoods'. I certainly don't miss the set up in TS3 where you basically started a new game every time your sims wanted to live in a different world but non-active sims staying in their own world would be a really good step forward.
And yes, I am more than ready for a new destination world. Anything new would be great at this point.

It would be better.
But the problem is: the world are too small. If it happened, the population would not be much for each world.
I was thinking the same last night as I was building in Newcrest and looking at the backdrops. This game feels so chopped up and not very immersive. I have other sims living beyond the borders of this world, but have no idea as to where. I should see my other neighborhoods as backdrops and recognize the shell buildings and 2D backdrops. EA should plan out the world in advanced and develop as needed, so everything feels like it is designed and holistic instead ad hoc.
Even a disney type place for the whole family to enjoy with rides and games with prizes.
I'm curious about what you all think about my weird way of thinking the world system should work?
Wow this post ended up way longer than I intended it to be and apologies for typos because this was written sporadically and with not a whole lot of attention being paid to it.
I agree completely with you. Vacation destinations shouldn't be as big as the general worlds. I like the way Gf is. I had suggested that we be allowed day passes and that those day passes would default our sims to the main lot of the vacation destination and bypass the rental areas. (for a smaller day pass fee of course!)
So this way, you can just go spend the day in the National Forest of GF, or to the beach lot when we get a beach vacation world, etc
@SimGuruLyndsay thought it was a good idea. So hopefully we see something like that once they start adding more vacation destinations.
And the beauty of them is that they are perfect for game packs, and you have the option of choosing which places you want in your game.
EDIT: Just realized you meant a vacation world but ehh how about a spooky almost abandoned village with lots to explore. A haunted inn and towns people with lots of secrets. I feel like playing silent hill now!

A fully built, multi-lot Sixam where you could rent a vacation spot would be different from that. It is a very beautiful place and worth building a rocket for! But it would be neat to see more done with it, or someplace similar.
