Why we need TWEENS / PRETEENS!?

How does any of this make for better game play?
Since when did Adults Sims creep on toddlers, kids, and teens like...wow what game are you playing because that don't sound like the sims. If your talking about the bug they fixed that awhile.
Tumblr (WIP)
We got toddlers for free, patched. I doubt theyd do it a second time.
So that's leaves them coming in a pack, which is fine. But how many packs do we already have that they now need pre teens to be compatible with? A lot...
I don't really feel their absence though, if I feel I need to, ill change their clothes and update their room to be pre teeny. But I mostly rush the baby, child and teen stages. I usually only really play toddlers, YA, and adults. But that's just me.
Yeah no. It's really not.
Why are you bringing up Sims 5 though? It's not coming out for a while. I think we are defiantly getting preteens whether you think we aren't. The devs mentioned them a few times.
Wait, why is this about imagination? Why should everyone live up to your expectations. They will only add preteens if it'll fix the gap between child and teen and make a substitute for shorter teens.
That person did say it was about height for them. It must be terrible to not just be able to pretend by using imagination. Since I play with aging on, my kid Sims are often 3 sim days apart, so it is easy to know who is older when allowing aging. I know some people do play with aging off, so I would figure they use their imagination about the age of their sims. If another life stage is added, significant gameplay features would need to be included to make it worth all the extra coding.
I said why im bringing up sims 5, because i dont think they're coming in s4.
So you think were definately getting pre teens, and that's okay. I just think we won't and that maybe they'll come in s5, and that's okay too. Different opinions.
A vanilla (no mods/ no cc) game. The bug is still in the game btw. Maybe you have a mod in your game and you don't see it. My sim gets get texts from adults asking them out for dates all the time. The nanny is flirty with toddlers.
this is off topic please stop
there might be preteens or there might not no one knows try not to get your hopes up to high @BuzzBuzz
How is it off topic? One of the suggestions for pre-teens is for them to have crushes. There is a bug currently in the game (which has not been fixed and has been reported multiple times) that adults have romantic whims and relationships with children.
I disagree that we need another child life state added to the sims 4, if the developers cannot even fix this bug.
I have no mods and not once did that show up after they fixed the bug like awhile ago. The only bug I have is Sims keep getting water mostly visiting Sims and cups of water be everywhere.
It was reported again in the bugs section of this forum on November 25th and that report includes a very creepy screenshot of a step parent getting a whim to flirt with his stepson.
My current family does not have children, so I haven't seen it in my game for awhile, but obviously it is still in the coding of the game.
Even though a guru was tagged, nobody from EA responded. It was advised to "ignore" it.
Pets and toddlers were planned from the start and have been in past versions of the game. You are asking for a new life stage that has never been done before because it already exists as children. Pre-teens will add absolutely no new game play that can't be done with kids or teens. You want a life stage that represents one year of a sims life instead of a stage of a sims life. Wanting a height difference between kids and teens so your family "looks" better is a silly reason to push a silly idea.
Even with a pre-teen stage, you still couldn't create that family. At best, you could do three, toddler, child, pre-teen. So if this is your reasoning, you will be greatly disappointed.
If you have been paying attention over the years, you know EA doesn't confirm or deny future packs including possible life stages. People demanded toddlers and EA never said one word, one way or the other about whether or not we would ever get them. They were a surprise. Your surprise will be all the wasted time asking for something that will never happen.
I don't see children as preteens. I see them as children. Preteens are much older than that. An 8 year old sim (Child) isn't a preteen.
Yeah she could. The smallest child is a toddler, the three medium sized children are children, and the two tallest children are preteens.
Another child life state? Lmao what? Maybe they aren't for you but remember some of us want them. I want it for height gap between child and teen, and a sub for shorter teens. Why can't any of you people understand that????
A child is classified as anyone under the age of 18. Are you really that dense or are you just purposely acting that dumb?
Yes, I am. I'm really dense and dumb. 2+2 is 5, right? 8 year olds are toddlers? 13 year olds are adults? I'm sorry for being sooooo dumb. Ha ha, I think is vice versa. You are the one acting dumb. Anyone over 13 is not a child but a teenager. A child is classified as someone under 12. Anyone under 18 is a MINOR. A child is a person between birth and below the age of puberty or someone's son or daughter. Do some educational research.
Ok and so I can waste my time all I want asking for Pre-teens it might not come on this game but at least the devs will know some people have an interest for Pre-teens maybe in the future they will add in Sims 5 if we ever have a Sims 5 but until then Let me waste my time in peace what's it to you?
I haven't seen no such thing in my game so this is news to me. Hopefully that person can get it fixed.
