Future Sim Improvement Ideas

[athena]

I wish they'd bring back the Sims Holidays stuff, like in Sims 2. I really had great fun during Christmas playing the families with the Christmas decors inside the house (and outside too! With the big snowmen). I particularly miss that dancing little snowman that plays Christmas music when you turn it on, I loved it!   The Sims loved it too, coz I would just hear the toy playing day and night in the house.  I would have the families get-together on Christmas or New Year and have a big dinner. The stuff pack also had a New Year's Party option with firecrackers. I really really miss those stuff.    In fact, I'm playing my Sims 2 families this seasons, I'll have snow too! Cheers!

EA released a free holiday stuff pack last year I think with a bunch of holiday stuff.

Crimson, there was no actual 'stuff pack' released, only a few free items from the store last year and then they did the same thing this year.  A 'stuff pack' is something you buy from a real store or over the internet and will usually cost you about $20 US, like The Sims 3 High End Loft or Fast Lane for instance.  Sims 2 had an actual 'stuff pack' released that included over 30 different holiday items, clothes etc. 
Click here for last years holiday items and then click here for this years items.  And here are the items for New Years 2011.

That's what I meant.
Feels like a waste of a stuff pack no offense but it is to general the Christians will only use christmas stuff the jews will only use channukah stuff etc.
Plus you would have to add weather it wouldn't look good to have christmas stuff in what looks like a nice spring day.

The only thing that I am asking for as a belated channukah present is CAW on a mac I really want to use it.

Some other nice additions that have probably not already been mentioned:
Cooler's for like picnics and stuff
More easter eggs of course hidden references and stuff that you can find. Like the spore painting.
How about the ability to pay some 20 Simoleans a month for an Massively Multiplayer Online Game that our sims can interact with for fun, social and maybe even a hidden skill.
Or to follow up how about a gaming skill all together and a self profession for designing games.

What is mmgo? And what do you mean by easter eggs?

That's not really appropriate, Crimson.

There are a whole lot of people who don't have snow at Christmas.  Not to mention people in the southern hemisphere, where Christmas is in the summer.

I must say I would really like to have seasons or pets. But not just cats and dogs there should be Llamas, cows, moose, ect. I think that would be awesome and a new creature If your sim is a farmer there might be aliens abducting your cows and you get abducted. Aliens would also do more than just look cool! they would be able to do cool stuff like probe cows. Hopefully there working on something like that.

Three things pop up. I would like to give gifts, send my teens to college, and have the apartments back again. I think the teen college should be like it is when they leave for a trip depending on where they choose to go to.

[IloveLlamas]

There are apartments!

It would be nice if my Sims would autonomously chat and raise their social bar when they sit down to eat with each other. I am almost certain they did that in the Sims 1 and Sims 2.

They're supposed to do this.  There was also a patch that fixed the problem.  I'm not sure why yours aren't doing it.  If mine sit down at the same time, they talk to each other and all social bars go to max.

[ratchie]

Mine all talk with each other but their social bars do not go up. The social bar goes up when they talk to each other one on one but not in a group.
