  • Which lighting mods update the brightness? I'm so used to the consistent brightness in The Sims 4.... Everything is so dark in The Sims 3. The shadows are very contrasting to the light, and I can't see the ground outside at night. It's very dark compared to TS4.
  • Yes! I've recently re-installed most of my Sims 3 expansions (I don't even have all of them) and I couldn't be happier. I had completely forgotten about the Opportunities tab — which is AWESOME and adds infinite depth — and the gamified loading screens. Those are fun! It only takes my 2015 laptop a couple minutes or less…
  • Update: I still haven't bought it. 👍
  • You could at least post a link to his YouTube account: https://www.youtube.com/user/phreakindee ....That said, I swear that he had more Sims 4 build videos. For example, he built a mall and an arcade. Did he take them down? Did I get the wrong LGR profile? haha.
  • I have not bought it. Great post, actually. it's good to call people out.
  • I can't consider voting for the little Star Wars game pack, although it is hilarious to see how many downvotes the trailer has received to date. I am watching gameplay video after gameplay video after gameplay video, before I feel if I've "seen it all." (Remember... Simmers mostly aren't storyline gamers — we're sandbox…
  • ^ Word for word, my thoughts. I don't know if I already replied to this thread, but yes, I miss cars in The Sims everyday. The cars driving around the roads in the background sets, they taunt me. :P
  • I cannot speak for the community... but here is my little wish list: In General - Improved communication from The Sims Team :) Base Game Updates - Cars (carpools, buses, firetrucks, service Sim vehicles) - Body hair - Improved skin tones and multi-ethnic hair textures - Basically the same CAS mechanics of skin/hair details…
  • Like several others here — all of the above. :grin:
  • ^This^ needs to be made into a graphical representation, and spread across Twitter/YouTube/etc. Thanks for bringing the numbers into this debate, because it really brings what we're all feeling into a solid, tangible issue. (Although, in theory, The Sims team should already know the numbers, right? hahaha :disappointed: )
  • The only thing I miss from The Sims 3 CAS is the color picker for nearly anything — skin, hair colors (roots, main, highlights, lowlights), makeup, clothing details, etc. You could create quite unique Sims and base-game outfits this way. But I do love the very detailed shaping & sculpting in the Sims 4. I think The Sims 4…
  • I completely agree regarding bicycles being marked as a default mode of transportation, and should be handled first. It's reminiscent of Champs Les Sims (in The Sims 3) where the locals rode on Vespas. I miss that. I would love to see neighbors riding their bikes around town! @LemDoodle — I was imagining this as well,…
  • I want carpools. Like what we had in The Sims, The Sims 2, and The Sims 3. Yes, I'd like the ability to own cars/vehicles (we already own boats and bikes), but I don't want owning a car to be the only way to use cars. We already see cars driving around on the roads in The Sims 4 all the time, @maice. Why do you think we…
  • Her review, unfortunately, matches my expectations. I've played it and replayed it again - haha! :lol: SPOILER ALERT: It just looks like fan service. These screenshots LOOK cool, but that's all it is... It's just looks. I am sorry for the newcoming Star Wars fans and the core Sims fans, both. It feels like Star Wars fan…
  • Spa Day, hands-down. Island Living is my favorite expansion pack for B/B, but I guess it doesn't count in this thread. :) I would probably enjoy a lot more B/B from packs/expansions, and would love to have them part of my game, if it weren't for the packs' effects on gameplay.
  • That was really smart! I have held out on Eco Living because of all the glitches/bugs, also to wait until it goes on sale for 50% off. I am looking forward to "Let's Plays" and more in-depth tours of the pack by Simmers on YouTube. I hope there will be more inclusive aspects of the game, for a broader audience, rather than…
  • She did not claim the pack was her idea. She claimed it was her opinion that it was a good idea to move forward with it.
  • Why are they speaking English (in the voiceover) ... And why is the voice so familiar? (I just recently watched this audiobooks video by Vox, and this actually sounds like her voice — haha!) This Gameplay Trailer is mostly about looks and not gameplay. We shouldn't have to say, "Awh, what a little cutie!" about the robots…
  • Well, buying it just tells EA that you're happy with it. :\ They listen to money... not comments.
  • I must have left The Sims 3 before it got the store, because I haven't the faintest memory of it, but it seems like my thing. Having a store for The Sims 4 would be awesome. I haven't bought so many of the packs, because I would be paying for so much content that I wouldn't use. Having a store where we can pick and choose…
  • Just add the color picker for hair/skins, better skin tones (less glitchy and more options), and body hair, and personally, I'd be happy. The color wheel would also be great for clothes, too, but yeah. -sketches
  • That is a great point, and I totally could have seen The Sims games implementing that. It just seems like the Sims 4 team won't bother. That would be great, though. It would add a detail of realism to the game. And it would help you, the player.
  • I've stopped playing, but I still hop on every once in a while (you know, because my lizard brain still trusts and loves "The Sims" franchise), and I can spend hours in Build/Buy mode. It's just been a while since I actually played in Live Mode. It's ... so bland nowadays. :\ I loved El Salvadora when I had the chance to…
  • Hi, I'm so sorry if I'm reviving a dead thread. But how do you make your two Sims have a romantic relationship? Their only options are friendship, for me.
  • Oh, they will be. I truly hope that what we have in base game Sims 4 will be the minimum of what is released base-game in The Sims 5. It takes major effort. It takes time and resources. But, please, do it for the customer.
  • You make a good point, but the hair and skin swatches should have been addressed MUCH sooner. Both of them have been requested fixes for much longer than these new gameplay glitches (which only result in EA giving us "more content," by the way... instead of fixing content first). From a story-telling perspective, aesthetic…
  • Those background cars are such teases for me! :tongue: I agree, though, that for those who don't want cars in their game (or in a certain world) at all, that you should be able to turn them off.
  • Yes, but I don't think it's reported as a bug. It's just another part of how the game looks/feels. I hope they can fix it. Actually, I hope they can offer more options for stair railings placement — for example, left side, right side, both sides or neither sides. :\ Will gladly keep you posted in case I come across it in…
  • Where can we view your videos? I want to edit some skeletons from Selvadorada, but can never access them from the Manager. Re: This topic, I kind of assumed they were randomly generated names, too. Once, I remember I told myself I'd look into the Manager to find the winning Sim, but never got around to it... Now, I will…
