I did so want to finish Project Fenbury and Project Throxton. Life has got in the way and I am currently waiting on another operation. If I do feel like a return to TS3 it will be simply to play the game. Thank you to all those who have liked and commented. An extra big thank you to those who have provided help. Apologies…

I had always played vanilla until I tried world building. The process of setting them up seems easy enough. However, after all these years, it still annoys me we need mods to keep the game working smoothly and for creating things like rabbit holes. Thank goodness for all those clever people out there who have provided the…

Apart from those things mentioned by OP in the opening post I would like to see * A realistic art style, human looking Sims and detailed plants and trees * Family trees * Curved/angled walls, foundations and fences * Cars and the ability to view inside while sim is driving * A decent way to filter items in CAS and build…

Oh I do believe in employing new technologies. I would love to be able to put on a headset and actually enter the world of my sims. Especially useful when house and world building :) My problem is I do not trust EA just to simply rewrite the game for 64 bit. I would hate to see something I love "upgraded" to resemble TS4…
-
No it can’t be done without a rewrite and I do not trust EA to do this without introducing new bugs and glitches. In an ideal world it would be wonderful to avoid the struggle to get an old 32 bit game to play on a modern computer. This isn’t an ideal world and as the saying goes “better the devil you know ...”

No definitely not. I would not want to see another version of the Sims franchise launched which has been rushed and not properly tested. I would much prefer to wait for a new version which has a stable, content rich base game which does not rely on future packs to make it enjoyable to play. I would also like to see player…

We all have our own idea of the perfect Sims game and, therefore, should be given an opportunity to say so. There are a couple of problems with this approach, EA has it's own ideas for the franchise including multiplayer, competitive and RPG elements while the players may not necessarily want these in future games. I do…

Always loved looking at building design and have been a member of the National Trust for years. I am lucky to live in a seaside town in the West Country so have plenty to inspire me from early Georgian to mid 20th post WW2. Other places close by such as Georgian Bath and the Cotswolds provide even more ideas for builds. My…

It is TS3. Loved TS2 but love TS3 more. The reason is simple and relates to play style. It varies according to mood. At the moment I am on a world building kick which includes building lots. I think once I reach the stage of populating my worlds then I will return to family play to test them properly. I could not do this…

I want a Sims 3 style world with the flexibility to move to other worlds without a mod. I feel that technology and programming should have progressed far enough to allow this to happen in TS5. As for the size of the worlds I would expect something considerably bigger than TS4. Five or six lots are not enough to satisfy the…

The base game was dire as there was so much missing and there was so little in terms of gameplay. It was rushed and to my mind not tested properly. You could clearly see this with the level of clipping. Granted it was a new version but I never understood why it was necessary to change the position of the controls.…

I don't think I am delusional nor do I think I am an exceptional builder. I do know that it takes a little time and patience to use build mode effectively. Just as it does for CAS and CAW. It can be very frustrating at times but at least you have CASt which gives you so much more than a few colour palettes. Fenbury is a…

@Chicklet453681 thank you for this. We don’t get these in depth interviews in the UK.
-
It’s a lovely idea but those who were involved in the Golden Age of Simming have moved on to other things. Sadly this means their considerable experience has also gone. On the other hand it never hurts a franchise to have new developers because more of the same gameplay, however modernised, is not likely to keep existing…
-
What makes the Sims franchise so different from more traditional games, in my opinion, is the fact it has universal appeal. As humans we are incurably nosy about our fellow humans regardless of our age or gender. What better then than a game which allows us to set up scenarios with miniature humans and then watch all their…
-
Not just yet for me. Not because I am playing TS4 but I am still playing TS3 and enjoying it very much. It has all the content and gameplay I currently want. The problems will come as time goes on as TS 3 is a 32 bit legacy game which is no longer supported unless you use Origin. I do not. Therefore I do want to see TS5…
-
Welcome back :) This game has everything I want from a life simulation for now. I love the appearance of the sims, the open worlds and the fact I can play any way I want. Most of the packs offer additional features and gameplay which only serve to enhance the game. If that is not enough there is even more content available…
-
I would happily play TS2 again if the wretched on line version didn't crash my laptop every time I load it. Apart from the loading screens which were always a pain in the proverbial I do miss the humour, babies with legs and the depth of gameplay which both TS3 and 4 lack. Considering I am a major TS3 fan that it is quite…
-
YouGov eh? You would think a Government poll would have more important things to poll UK citizens about but it would appear this poll is genuine. Personally I would put the percentage much higher. I once hosted a tread in TS3 which showed most simmers had at one time or another experimented wit ways to murder their sims.…
-
Yes they do and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. I was not passing judgement but merely saying there are alternatives to explore should anyone want to.
-
All kinds of people. Why limit yourself to one gender or race when the game offers so many other opportunities to explore.
-
I happen to like the TS3 aesthetic as it is now. If it was changed to resemble TS 4 I simply would not be interested in the remaster/remake. A while ago I hosted a long thread in the TS3 section and the question of remastering/remaking came up. There are a number of difficulties which would need to be overcome for it to…
-
Thank you @BlackSand much appreciated :)

My nephew came to stay with us and brought TS1 on console. He did not get the console back until he went home. When I heard TS2 was coming out for PC I got the game and the rest, as they say, is history.
-
TS3 mainly because I am working a lot in CAW and thoroughly enjoying it still. I did not get all the TS3 packs until quite late so I still have a lot to explore and do once I have finished the two worlds I am currently creating. I have not played TS2 for nearly 11 years. I do miss it sometimes and have the edition EA gave…
-
EA was prepared to listen to what the players really want from this franchise and the players could agree on what they want. It sounds simple but we are all very different in what we want from our games and getting consensus through discussion might be impossible to achieve. I would suggest a reasonable selection of…
-
Quite simply I want both. I love the open worlds of TS3 and like to send my sims out to explore them but I find the rabbit holes rather limiting. Perhaps at the time of development of TS3 there had to be a trade off for the open worlds so the result were the rabbit holes. Now the technology has advanced so much it should…

I love playing with Supernaturals in TS3. Although I tend to play with a fixed moon phase to prevent zombies from wrecking my gardens :) I have no experience of TS4 Supernaturals but feel sorry for any player that is bothered by their presence without the ability to toggle them out of the game. I agree with OP it is…

I have always enjoyed playing with the Casino Venue which comes with the gold version of Lucky Palms. It can also be bough separately and there is at least one other set which gives you additional gaming tables. I agree with @SimLibby rather than pay full price why not wait until the venue comes up on daily deals then your…

The Sims franchise has provided me with emotional support through some very difficult times in my life. Difficulties which have affected me physically and mentally. There have been times when I have dragged myself to my laptop to play, to have the distraction and to at least feel better mentally for a while afterwards. The…
