They announced they would make woohoo a skill but they have now backtracked, although I wouldn't be surprised the removed the action as well at this point

[gloamingtheplain]

They didn't remove WooHoo, they removed it being a skill because of how that would effect the rating.

The game would have to be increased in it's rating if having sex basically was treated as a professional skill based task.

**** you EA I was looking forward to this game

gurl........ are you even real.....

Open World and CASt alone >>>>>>>>> the whole Sims 4 game

they've ruined BF4 & SimCity already are you sure you want this game to be ruined aswell?
if they don't listen to the fans then I'm not buying it, if the fans keep feeding them gold this franchise will end up like Capcom did with Resident Evil

and stop it, you just sound as delusional as TS4 team

[Skywalker]

The end is near.

Open World had no actual community lots. Rabbit Holes were there instead.
The Sims 4 sacrifices Open World by having actual community lots. You know, Nightclubs, Shops etc? Actual places that Sims can explore and not disappear into a lot and you don't see them do anything.
That's not anything less. Its something different. You get one thing but not another.

I'm not going to judge a game based on things I don't know. Most fans prefer The Sims 2 and The Sims 4 is more like The Sims 2 than it is The Sims 3. I'd say that's listening to your fans.
Most fans didn't like The Sims 3. Look at any Sims 2 vs Sims 3 thread and The Sims 2 always wins.

EA definitely tried to make it more Sims 2, they just sacrificed a lot to do that.
It might be executed really well. It might not be. We don't know until we play.

Personally my favourite part is design lots and The Sims 4 is much better at making realistic houses than The Sims 3 (with MUCH better graphics).


vs.


Also, the Sims 4 doesn't have massive neighbourhoods. That doesn't mean you can't roam them like you can in The Sims 3.


And you can roam like this:





Also notice in the first picture Sims actually live in their house while your not there? Not just walk into a house that you have to click on to see what they are doing.

and you can live in places like this:



The graphics and detail is so much better.

EDIT: Also, you can travel from world to world with only a short loading time in-between. Each Sim family can now explore more than they ever could. You can actually leave the Neighbourhood.

Also there are more Sims in the neighbourhood than The Sims 3. You get multiple Sims in just one location so it's actually busy.

No. There are no shops, grocery stores, or any shopping of any kind. I know you're passionate about this game but the reality a lot of core elements that sim players really loved are out. I think more people would have preferred a better executed open world rather than a closed one again. Literally every TS2 & TS3 feature that was buggy was just dropped, in exchange for what? A cow plant, lack of customizing tools, or what?

@ you considering that a better graphic

have you ever play the iphone version of the sims? have you actually played sims 3 in ultra? the sims 4 graphic is kind of gloomy (to hide the low textures in the objects)

this game is either rushed or low budget, you know that, and each day simmer prays in hope there will be no more removed feature from ts4

the sims 4 doesn't even have any kind of reflection, better graphics? more like better lightning, bye

[I Am Music]

The artstyle they went with for the sims 4 is garbage. Sims 3 looked great minus the doll looking sims.

[Caesar]

EA ha decline, looks like the Sims 2 will stay at the top

Shopping has yet to be confirmed or denied though.
We have been told there will be Nightclubs, Museum's etc.
We haven't been told if there will or won't be shops.
But the community lots are Sims/Sims2 style and not Sims3 style.

These are open worlds. They are just smaller.
Closed would mean you are stuck in your lot. You can explore these in great detail.
It's just smaller. But they are smaller, (as the explained) to allow more Sims in each neighbourhood to actually live outside their homes and not have empty neighbourhoods.

@ you acting like The Sims 3 had better out-of-gameplay backdrops.



Wow those Mountains are SO much more High-Res than The Sims 4 omg
The tree's on the mountains are SO clear.

Not to mention the tree on the actual lot looks terrible
& The Sims look pasted on.

---

The Sims 4 uses smoother textures in order to provide more actual detail:


^ The textures are less detailed, but the graphics are much better. Look at the flowers by the tree. Look at the bushes. They look terrible. The Sims 4 did it better, and looks better.

When has a street ever looked so good on the Sims 3?



When has a house ever been so realistic on the Sims rather than looking boxy?



For me personally, I'd rather have a realistic and more detailed neighbourhood that's smaller, than a massive one that lack's detail the same amount of detail.

Just because a graphic has higher textures, doesn't mean it's better. The Sims 4 uses simpler textures yet uses better graphics.

So you would rather have The Sims 3 with it's rough textures, and distorted detail than The Sims 4?



How anyone could choose the top one baffles me tbh. I'd rather have the bottom.

Personally, the aesthetics for TS4 are vastly better then those in TS3. From looks of the Sims to the whole atmosphere in the lots.
