Probably one day, but not until it's been out for a while. I don't really like how people have already started talk of The Sims 4 when I only recently got The Sims 3, but I'm the one who was late to the party. :I
Not really sure yet. I have been on board since Sims1 and had a blast BUT when I bought Sims 3, the base game was so very empty compared to everything I had been doing inTS2 that it was really a let down to start over and rebuild my options for play once again. I am not really certain I want to deal with that yet again. Not to mention that it took a while for those that are skilled wit the creation of CC to sort out the new system. For me, having access to well done CC makes the game that much more fun and engaging. For me, now, it's all about options. So, that said, unless The Sims 4 has at least weather and pets in the base game AND the CC creators don't have to start over from scratch, I am likely to sit on the fence until an expansion pack or two is released.
I have spent a good bit of money and a LOT of time building my TS3 collection and honestly the thought of starting over from scratch for a third time is just not appealing enough that I would jump to TS4 at release.
Also, if TS4 has required online play elements ( social networks or cooperative ) or even just an Internet connection required to even play it, you can count me out completely. My Internet connection has more than enough bandwidth but I really do prefer the single player sandbox.
So, while I might play TS4, it won't be right at release. Some may say I would be coming late to the party but I have found that quite often one has more fun arriving fashionably late versus arriving right on time.
I want to see the base game have hottubs,a swimmable ocean,seemless neighborhoods like we have now but with the ability to travel to other worlds without losing relationships and even move there.
I also want create a style like we have now,all clothes available in the warddrobe,no rabbitholes and proper car animations like opening the door.

This is the deal breaker for me. Even if an internet connection is not required I will read discussions here first and read reviews to determine if I will buy it.

Exactly. Let's not forget all the patches necessary from rushed deadlines... I went back to TS1 until they released the very first patch Without the patch, I would get blue screens all the time!
Not right at release, no. I am getting ready to send one of my kids to college and I can't afford a new computer just for gaming. If they try to make it social like a MMORPG, then definitely no, never. I play games to relax. Not figure out weird commands.
It took me a year to jump on the TS3 bandwagon after TS2.
No for me, at least initially. Maybe if the price goes down to 15 dollars I'll get it.
Sims 4 though will probebly have open resturents and I doubt it will be more expensive then sims 3 games are now. The pc requirments however will probebly be much higher.
The graphics would have to be gorgeous like Skyrim or Farcry 3, and the AI would have to be way better for me to justify getting it still. And the base game would have to come with alot of content like the Sims 2 base game did.
most likely but if it needs an internet connection i will stick with the sims 3 i dont know if i will have internet in the near future if they make it with some online features that can just be shut off like how simport is that would be fine but i dont want to be forced to play online
Of course I will be playing. We all will be, even the people who are now complaining stuff like "I spent so much time and money on TS3 that there is no way i'm going to S4". Yea, we've all spent so much time and money on this, but we did on S1 and S2 too, and just like we moved on from S1 to S2 and then to S3, we will also move on to TS4.
I am not worried about my laptop handling sims4 because I got a new one last year.
There are so many things i havent done in sims3 yet and I have invested too much in it to let go.
The same thing happened when I had all the sims 2 and sims3 came out.I had unfinished things in sims2 and didnt want to get sims3 but I did.
I for one, hope they take their time bringing sims4 so i dont feel tempted!.
I have to wait and see what it has to offer. Sims 1 was fun, but sims 2 was a big jump in play style, customization and graphics so definitely was a great investment and added to the fun. Sims 2 was fun and I hesitated to go to sims 3, but the more I heard about the seamless neighborhood, and having the town grow up around you and not have loading screens to me was a big improvement, so it was worth it to me for that reason. Now sims 4 would really have to up their game and offer something so compelling and new over sims 3 that I could not live without it. If it is going to be similar to what we have now, but adding online features definitely not! I might wait for them to release the base game and the first ep, because if the eps for sims 4 are going to be like the last three games redos of what we have now except for pets and weather which I absolutely need in the sims game lol, then I probably will play the sims 1, sims 2, and 3 exclusively.

I've spent a ludicrous amount of money on the Sims 3 franchise, so it pains me to think about leaving it behind. I'd like to think that I would have the willpower to say no to Sims 4...
but I also have "OoOoOOO SHINY!" syndrome, so more than likely it will be in my posession on release day whether I really want it or not.
Hi. I'm Danger. I like spaceships, Pringles, and cats. I dislike fruits and vegetables, sunlight, and the motion picture Titanic. I do not own a sword, nor do I know how to draw unicorns. As you can see, I don't have much to offer the world.
I want to say that if it has a required internet connection, that I wouldn't get it because this is something I definitely don't want..
But, then again, I've been around since Sims 1. Even if it has a required internet connection to play, I'm sure I'll buy it anyway. I just hope that the base game has more to it than Sims 3 did. I remember buying Sims 2 and played for hours on end with the base game alone; but when Sims 3 came out I got bored very easily.

This is exactly how I feel, not to mention the amount of bugs and glitches with this game that EA still need to address!
