Video Games: Huge changes coming to The Sims 4

EA keeping to it's word that The Sims 4 would be updated annually to keep it fresh, Developers for The Sims 4 have announced the Sims 4 graphics will be improved before the release of the next Game Pack "Dine Out".

From the trailer above, the game is even more crisp, and the lighting even more dramatic. Also there's more 3D effects to clothes, such as solid ribbons and pockets, rather than having it printed on to the outfit.

It was also hinted, that dramatic changes to Create-A-Sim were also on the way by developers on Reddit. As well as the ability to have Unisex options for Sims, rather than simply Boys and Girls.

This comes just after The Sims 4 became the best selling PC game two years in a row, and EA announced the game's audience has grown two-thirds, the largest a Sims game has ever grown in it's second year.

This is all good and all, but I would rather more packs.
I didn't have a problem with the graphics or Create-A-Sim.

I want an EP!

GOOD

The marketing, the announcements/releases, and the lack are tragic. It's about time they put an end to this mess.

Is this the human/sim equivalent of product placement?

Unisex option sounds messy but I'm ready for improvements, anything that gets me excited for this game again tbh

Has there been anything announced about the Sims 5? Haven't checked Sims news in about a year or so.

Um, 3D detailing on clothes in the Sims is huge. All games before hand would apply the details on a flat texture.

Now it's multiple layers for textures on a single piece.
It also means CC creators are not forced to apply 3D details onto a flat surface.

This was done so the textures weren't too hard to load, as there will be heaps of Sims walking around. Now it seems they don't give a ****

You wish

For the artstyle they went with, it's as clear and smooth as it can get. No one wants realistic Sims and that was evident when the Sims 3 tried "realism" and failed. Sims looked creepy unless you had CC that made them more fake.
