Future Sim Improvement Ideas

[Bob]

I wonder if we submit these ideas to the Sim creators if they'll actually include them in the next patch or EP. o.O  I love all these ideas and miss locked doors and the weather. :|

Always fun to decimate a snowman.

[PJSim]

I also miss weather. I wonder if it's just too hard to do now with the open neighborhoods, I hope not.

i love all these ideas and miss locked doors

Did you install the latest patch (or WA)? If so, try clicking on a door now.

[Carl]

Yep it's nice being able to lock doors now. Does the basement tool carry over to vanilla as well?

[PJSim]

Yes. It's in the list of changes for the new patch.

I'm not yet a Sims 3 player but I always thought it would be nice to make the sims games interactive with other members who are playing at the same time you are. I don't know if it will ever happen but it could make things more interesting some how.

Ok, so I'm new to the forum but definitely not to the Sims.

-I would really enjoy the Open for Busniess concept.  Definitely bring back the easons concept. Maybe expand the Apartment Life concept for the Sims 3.
-I also think that they need to revamp the University concept, like some jobs you actually have to go to college or even a tech school. It would be awesome!  For example, the classes you take involve the skill you need, not just going to one class and gaining one skill level.  If you enroll in the course, you get like a max of 3 or 5 levels in each level, and eventualy getting a required degree for that job.
-I think in Create A Sim, if you're creating an Adult or Young Adult, you should right then be able to adjust the skill levels right away because, come on, being an adult and not having any of those skills you learn your whole life.
(The whole idea of work needs to be revamped.  Instead of your Sim just disappearing for hours, you should get to play them at work and do different tasks.  I have a lot of ideas, but these are the ones that come off the top of my head.)

Hello! This post is about in future what we would like to see in sims. Im sorry if this has been posted before, it probably has so sorry! ( I still say sorry too much).
Here everyone can list what they would want in future sims expansion packs. I know that the people who created sims will be EXTREAMLY unlikely to actully read this post but lets hope they do somehow. But this is just for fun and what we'd all love to see in sims.
I would love to see an expansion pack thats like another holiday one too. But in this one i would want not different countries but places we would visit on vacations often. Like themparks, beaches, cliffsides, farms other stuff like that.

Also i would love to see babies and toddlers interact more. I havent really seen them interact with eachother. Wouldnt it be funny if you left a baby laying around on the floor or something and then a toddler grabbed it and ran outside somewhere. That would be so funny. And maybe for insane toddlers they could walk to the other side of town and just leave the baby somewhere. That would be so funny!

I would love to see prams. Imagine if you could take your baby or toddler for a walk in a pram, one of my other posts menchined them coming fishing and pam said there wasnt a type of transport they could use. So i think if we could just simply grab a pram, put in the baby, maybe put in a toy for it so it would stay happy and leave it while with adult sims do what they want that would be great. Maybe they could sleep in them and relax so we could have some peace and quiet. That would be great.

For kids i think it would be great to be able to interate with adults even more. I dont think you can but hopefully one day our adult sims could give them piggy backs and rides. Also more interactions in the water with other sims, like dunking them if they dont like eachother or splashing eachother.

All this would make sims so more exiting, and if you can already do something please tell me because that would be completly embarrasing for me if you already can.
Post your ideas on furniture, interactions clothes or whatever. I find this subject very interesting.

I'm going to combine my single desire and Carl's big wish into one revolutionary idea: a hot tub in the shape of an electric guitar.

[box3d]

This is kind of off topic a bit, but where did the piano go?
I was kind of disappointed when they changed the music skill to guitar.

And why is it then when you work in the symphonic branch of the music career that you need 10 guitar skill points? It should be piano.

And they should make it so the easel can be placed in your inventory. Instead of memorizing a scenery and painting it at home. Or at least add a little easel that is accessible when on other lots.

Oh, and I bought the base game, and World Adventures for 50$ each without tax. You'd figure the expansion would be less?

[Edit: I moved this post to a more appropriate topic.  -Pam]

I want to see different music objects again, having only the guitar is kind of lame..
I also want seasons (which should have been included with the base game.) Although knowing EA they will release the same Seasons expansion from the Sims 2 only it will include a few extra stuff, and calling it "Holiday Fun," so they can rake out more cash from people.... 

[Ya Cheese Buddy]

Same! I would love to see more music objects. I own the Sims 1 and it has a piano which I love. You can buy different types of pianos too. I think they should bring out Sims 3 Music expansion pack, with heaps of new instruments and maybe a few made up ones. All adding different careers, lifetime wishes and moodlets. This would make the game much more exciting!

YES!!!

[Ya Cheese Buddy]

Ha! That would be so cool!

[igzigpuff]

I want more musical instruments for my Sims to play!  I want my Sim bands back! 

I don't know if it's just the traits I'm picking, but my Sims are kinda dull....it seems like the Sims interacted more in TS2, well in a more dramatic way.  I never see anyone fighting, no jealousy it's like it's the Stepford Wives!     Did they all get lobotomies or something?

Oh yeah, I also would like a stroller for the kids, this leaving them on the ground is a bit much..
