I know this has been a topic since forever, but i'm now getting a little tense with my game not having some crazy stuff happening.
I miss the fact you could be burgled, or when a fire happened and the firefighters arrived.
I understand that this might cause anxiety for some people but i miss that detail of the game, maybe they can consider a stuff pack for those of us who truly want it? i'd pay.

I didn’t know they could do that.
Game on!

But after almost five years and Sim Guru Frost (I believe) reiterating the game is a “safe space for people to grow, learn, share with others” I have no hope whatsoever.

Again, I think that's what they said in regards to burglars, a bit before the time Cats and Dogs was announced. Which, if that is true, opens up to MANY arguments against that decision.
EDIT: Back in 2017, a rumor was going around that EA stated they don't want to add in burglars because they don't want to cause anxiety attacks amongst players... when we already have vampire invasions, which is worse than a burglar stealing your items... and they could just add in an option to turn off the spawn of burglars... so I don't know if the developers agree with this reasoning (although based on past comments from them, I wouldn't be surprised), but that might be the reason.
This was debunked a long time ago.
By whom? Were we ever given a reason, then?
I’ll take it a step further and say I don’t think we’ll be getting any new service Sims period.
I want to say Grant debunked it. He just said they just... didn't add them in. Probably because they were under a time crunch because EA saw SimCityOnline fail and TS4 was about to follow in that footstep before making a hard 180 into an offline, single player game.
Or make sure there's a burglar alarm -- with the alarm the police would show up before the burglar could steal anything...if my Brave Sim didn't beat up the burglar first. Only drawback was the entire family (except the Heavy Sleepers), so I'd either have to send them all to bed or if it was close to time to get up anyway cheat up their Energy level.

Ohhhh, that does sound familiar. Then why they still aren't in the game absolutely baffles me since there's already an "invasion system" of sorts in the game already.
I remember when I first played TS3 the first sim I created got robbed on her first night. She was asleep and because I didn’t know canceling an action was possible I had her sleep through it and called the police in morning. It was too late and instead I ended up getting fined for wasting police time😂😂😂 it was fun fighting with them too. I would definitely welcome burglars into Ts4.
I know that there are people who'd rather be without them but this is a life simulation and that small detail made the game feel more alive to me.
The feeling of having to wake up in the middle of the night(in the sims) and sneak down stairs to call the police was satisfying and realistic, something i truly miss.
