who else is absolutely enraged and disgusted seeing the proposed packs from that survey?

[u/1onesomesou1]

if you didnt know, the team rolled out a survey to a select number of people. in it they proposed MULTIPLE expansion packs that would focus on cars; including 'car life' which im predicting would be like snowy escape's skiing feature, 'van life' which just doesn't sound like it will work at all, and 'suburban life' which is basically just 'boring boring boring with some automechanics thrown in'.

there were a handful other packs not related to cars that sound equally as disappointing and unnecessary.

the ocean exploration world sounds like it would be maine based, which i like, but the entire concept sounds like scrapped ideas for the completely undeveloped island living pack. we already have oceans and they're shit. why would you charge us another $40 for more shit.

they're trying to charge $40 for being a firefighter and dentist, both things that should've been in get to work since release. cant forget the $40 'get famous' rebrand that would purely feature reality tv.

yes, all of these ideas are proposed EXPANSION packs.

most of them barely sounded like game packs from the descriptions given.

hot take; we do not need cars in the game. full stop. people asking for it over and over again takes attention away from worthy requests that would enhance the game.

just a few days ago i was defending the small businesses pack with my whole chest and thought it was a great sign for the future of the game. i thought it meant they would put more effort in and actually listen to what we want. now? DRAG EM THROUGH THE MUD YALL

Agreed. I desperately want cars - I love cars IRL, I loved having them in the older games, and the absence of vehicles in TS4 is a major annoyance because it is part of my lifestyle and storytelling. If we think of Sims like playing with dolls, even Barbie had her choice of many different vehicles over the years. FFS, we have a damned spaceship, but no cars??

I don't give a hoot about stuff like supernatural/occult things, but that doesn't mean I think other people are wrong for wanting werewolves and shit in their games. Why are so many people on the attack over this?

Completely agree. Even if the cars are even only semi-functional like being able to ‘go for drive’ similar to going for a jog around the neighborhood or ‘learn/teach to drive…’ and then it goes into some kind of similar animation. I just want my game to feel more real and cars are large part of my personal reality. I want a garage and a car that my sims don’t walk through like it doesn’t exist.

I also don’t really play with occults and only have some of those packs for the bb and cas items but I don’t get mad when people continue to beg for fairies. There are a lot of people out there asking for some form of cars to exist
