[@jogignac-davies6090]

expecting a company to release that much content all at once (which would take more than a decade to create) and then release it for free or as a one-time payment is a pretty silly thing to expect. Graphic designers, programmers, writers, music writers etc are normally 100-300 an hour and the sims 4 is constantly in production unlike other popular games that go into production for 3-5 years and thats it. Do the math; these people and their teams deserve to be paid, and without paying them quality is going to lack largely. i have all the packs and dlc, and i'm glad they do it like this otherwise the sims 4 probably wouldn't be out of production yet and released to the public. we'd be waiting so long technology would surpass the game in the meantime and people would be expecting more a decade later. so you can't just wait a decade until everything is created and ready for release. it takes too long. it also gives us the ability to provide feedback for what we want in the game. idk, its annoying, but then again, this is a game. its not a necessity you're using your disposable money on it, so yeah; they deserve to be paid for busting their ass just so you could spend 40 bucks on a pack that you were going to use on something else fun anyways because its disposable income. if you dont have the money like i didn't for years, i suggest mods; they can do everything a pack can. and you can support the creators for a dollar or two a month on patreon.

Most of these features already existed in The Sims 2 except for multiy player so for these features to be good they need to actually be a lot more than what was already in The Sims 1 in Sims 2 otherwise they're just copying something that has already been around in their franchise that they may have skipped when they did The Sims 4

"Free" + pay for any 'extras' makes me nervous, especially since we're talking about EA. There's going to be a LOT of Sims competition this time around, so if they intend to nickel and dime people to death, they might actually lose customers.

[@hermionedaulat8161]

100% this is what I've been saying. EA don't have a monopoly on life simulation games anymore and there are a lot of strong up and coming competitors (Paralives, Life By You, Inzoi). If they seriously think that they can continue to take the pish out of their loyal fan base they need to take a step back. They have to stop treating their fan base as cash cows otherwise it will lose them sales. If the Sims 5 is released as unfinished at the sims 4 was, or with micro transactions then I'm not buying it or playing it, and I would ask that you all do the same too because EA truly does not give a fudge about their customers and we need to show them that it is not okay.

Very promising! But can we trust? I hardly think so. The Sims loves teasing their players, gives with a teaspoon takes back with a bowl…

[@LukOliveira95]

Funny thing is: Sims 2 had cutscenes, and they were removed on Sims 3. Nothing new, old ideas that worked are being used again~

[@GuayabaContenta]

I feel that EA gave the developers too little time to finish the game well to receive the money ahead of time or that simply to save budget they omitted to add details like sims 2. And not just simple details in the graphics and the look of the game but in actions, scenes and very small things that made the game feel comfortable to play

[@teemuleppa3347]

free to play...is always the most expensive option

[@lotus0958]

Always !

[@GuayabaContenta]

not always, The base game of Sims 4 was pay to play and you still had to pay for the packs for the game to be entertaining enough. Then when you have most of the packs you realize that it is too monotonous and robotic like something is missing, something that in the sims 2 and 3 is not felt much due to the level of detail in almost any interaction.

[@GuayabaContenta]

But what you say also applies to mobile sims because you basically have to pay for almost everything if you want to have decent gameplay. If not, then you have to wait hours or even days for your sim to complete a very simple action. Something I remember is that when the Facebook account was linked to the freeplay sims account, all my friends had their sims abandoned for that same reason.

[@tomatoraccoon]

So why bust peoples bubble. I've played since sims1 Long time ago. Since beta basically. So, yeah i follow the sims franchise and EA on a daily bases. And sims5 isn't on the list for 2024. If y'all saw the live podcast from sims gurus they literally said " sims 5 isn't coming out next year. That it's in its works and probably won't be done till 5 years.

[@bigboomer1013]

A small detailed feature they should add is having sims chat while walking since people usualy have conversations as they are traveling one place to another. Having them to not speak while walking kinda makes it look like the sims are having an awkward walk in the park or something. Thiught that it would also be nice if they can chat while painting or cleaning or cooking at the same time withiut having to stop ehat they are doing for a while. Would be an interesting emotion where the sim can feel tence from being disrupted on some activities like painting or doing research where you need to focus. It can also be another way to have a higher desth or accident rate if you constantly disrupt someone trying to fix an eletronic.

[@lissaxoxo2988]

It’s like with any other game with DLC.

[@missnorthwales321]

That would be ace

[@crazyharry9136]

Whelp, it's not "something new" from (used to be Maxis, then EA Land, & eventually EA Games) the ORIGINAL Sims1: The Sims Online. After creating your Sim, you would choose a server, purchase a lot (or just mooch off of other players' service lots to make more money until you could afford to buy/ build ideally), visit other REAL in-time PLAYERS online/ their lots (specific lot types were i.e. Money, Romance, Casino, Skilling, etc...). You could have either a public or private home to invite others. They also offered jobs such as Robot Factory, DJ, Dancer, Diner. Other players would SIMtimes be there during your shifts, offering another avenue for meeting new people and working together. If you arrived for your shift and found yourself alone, no problem. You could still work, get paid & be credited for potential job promotions. Robot Factory was the only career that didn't have NPCs, as they had LOL cantankerous robots on a running track... and timing was EVERYTHING or you'd be killed. Luckily, there was usually an online player SIMwhere at a public lot who could revive you with a spiritual dance (required i believe Level 8 skills in Charisma and ?Cooking?). Players could also join others on Money lots to play Pizza (4 people), Code (3) and Maze (3). Some lots would throw parties to offer money (i.e. Drink until you pee, rotfl... Player who pees last wins the cash. Another favorite was $50,000 to die in the swimming pool, although it took forever!). i had a Fight Club because my sister and i thought the "Slap Face," "Pile-Drive" & "Attack!" animations were hysterical, along with the "Sarou-Woo! YUH!" Simlish. i'd offer winners of the fights cash as well. Custom content was not introduced in TSO until Maxis stepped out and EA Land took over. i hadn't seen CC thereafter until Sims2 was released. i still miss TSO & hope they incorporate the elements of it in the future. i know there's an "underground" version of TSO (or was) but cannot recall its name. It's free if you want to search for it/ check it out. Unfortunately, i don't know if the developers adopted the same name ("The Sims Online"). Hope that helps! ;D

The Sims, a long-standing and beloved life simulation game, now faces a formidable competitor on the horizon. InZoi, an impressive-looking upcoming life sim, has emerged as a potential new contender in the market.

[@bubbles4042]

Omg that would be so cool if we can have certain players play on one shared gamefile. And all the required mods should be promted before joining a server like they have in ark ascended and roblox. All mods should be uploaded to one platform to make it easier to access and download before joining that server. I think every server should be limited to 5 players though. Although Unfortantley if they dont have certain packs they cant join that server. When placing community lots it should be a vote system though. Remember these gamefiles will be a team effort file and should be discussed amongst the all players. If not online it should be a timer. Or each player has their own townn they can build up on that connects all together. They can also invite 5-10 guest to their servers. Also it should be a event server where all simmers can join to enjoy festivals, holidays, game annoucements. Or maybe they could have an arcade mode where simmers have the freedom to create custom games, events, save files, worlds for other simmers to explore. That would be fun actually.

Yeah... This feature list is worrying coming from EA. It's both ambitious and suspiciously free from the get go. To me that means the base game will be bare bones, but just good enough to get people's hopes up and hooked onto the idea that they can eventually build the game up to what they want it to be if they just buy oneee more tinesy tiny little expansion/dlc/micro-transaction (oh wait how did I just end up buying 40!?).

with the multiplayer they should make it kind of like sims 4 where there's multiple neighborhoods or just make it so certain saves can be a multiplayer save that way you can still have both

[@six-stringphantom1402]

If they're going to do ANYTHING regarding online multiplayer? Give us Community Creations. I wanna be able to search Vercetti Mansion or Family Guy Home and be able to download said lot.

[@YeTheGOATNoCap]

Its going to be GaaS always online game with shared worlds where you can only control one househould at a time and leveling skills and careers will take a ton of grinding to make people pay to speed up progress.

[@NeonLeWolfy]

Dude multiplayer is gonna be amazing-

U can do that now with an mod it’s on curse forge ❤

How's that even going to work? The multiplayer world just sounds like an attempt to foster FOMO in impressionable people. Consider that unless all players involved in a session have bought the same DLC, you're going to get into group situations where one person has access to certain items that others don't. On the one hand, it might give you a chance to test out things you don't own by using items that belong to other multiplayers...but on the other hand people are going to want to start buying packs just to flex in multiplayer. EA is too far out of touch; I wouldn't jump on the hype train just yet. Wait till you see the price tag on the DLC for it first. I'm betting the expansions will be priced at around 60 dollars and that you'll have the option of buying certain items individually; AKA: microtransactions. There's nothing new here except a potential face-lift, some mechanics changes that are just reversions to Sims 3 tools, and more euphemisms for the same old cash grab. Not too many people interested in shelling out another couple grand for another unsatisfactory Sims game.

My best friend and I always play sims and we have been waiting for a multiplayer, because we have to play on the same divice. I thought this. Tysmmm ea games!

[@itszayy1287]

When will they make ea app for Mac ? Still waiting on that !!

[@redbelliedgaming]

Im very excited for sims 5 this game is going to be awesome

[@NerdyNanaSimulations]

Yes, but how much of the content will be broken on release? Kits have shown us they are going to nickle and dime us they just need to get you addicted to the game and then they can have all your money. EA has made many promises since taking over The Sims franchise, and NONE of them have been reality. Will I get the free game? Probably, and what I find there will impact any chance of me moving forward. In the meantime I will more likely get Life by you and possibly Inzoi depending on actual gameplay in the latter. I think Life by you in spite of some graphic challenges is going to be much more along the lines of the original sims games and is more my type of game.

[@enforcerlucario932]

Aww man I can’t wait for the release and I would wait until it’s fully Baked. This game is going to be a masterpiece

[@mcmike89]

It's the year 2114 and the 100th anniversary of the Sims 4 is finally here, still no Sims 5 yet announced. Can you imagine EA and Maxis just waiting until the next century for a new Sims game to come out, none of us will be alive by the year 2114.🤣

[@patrickbernardidefreitas402]

“Create sims from photos” let’s hope it isn’t as bad as the mii creator in 3DS and Wii U

[@xtremeyoylecake]

I REMEMBER THE WII U ONE 😭

[@vivimymaster]

Im hoping to have an open world with other players walking around but your lots are personal like your island in animal crossing. Having it where you only meet people you know can be isolating if none of your friends play the game too. 😢

[@angelcochran7550]

So what you're saying is coming soon cuz I saw the video of The Sims five they haven't created that yet or is it coming soon just asking

[@Code-Redd]

at this point I have high hopes by my realistic expectations are lower than hell

[@jaydengamer2073]

Top 10 I want it in the sims 5 1. Better real time and Date 2. Add the new year event 3. Any height, like short and tall 4. Stay much longest age just like the sims 3 5. Earth map 6. create your own car or truck 7. Add Mary jobs 8. Add the pet and animal 9. Custom eye 10. Add story mode with superheroes I so excited for the sims 5

[@MatthewTheWanderer]

I hope they upgrade the graphics!

[@CatrionaaanneGray]

It sounds unlikely that I will be getting Sims 5 because of multiplayer and would we be able to get more furniture clothing hait and makeup from The exchange or from Sims resource for Sims 5 when it comes out.

[@Linziescozyworld]

When did they announce project renee was going to be released next year???

[@carminesanders2759]

my first thoughts are...is this going to turn out like the FIRST online disaster ?

[@hermionedaulat8161]

They just don't ever learn, do they? They don't give a fudge about the loyal fanbase; all they care about is how much money they can squeeze out of us. With all of the promising upcoming competitors (Inzoi, Life By You and Paralives), they no longer have a monopoly on life simulation games; they need to stop acting like this otherwise they will totally destroy the franchise. If they don't get their act together otherwise The Sims 5 will crash and burn.

[@K-a-i.]

I hope they will finally add cars

[@carlasS.]

OMG a VR mode, i want that too, i don't even have a vr set but i would buy it just for this. 😅 Open world is a must, and with this feature a hope we could actualy go to beaches and swim in ocean, that was a big down for me with TS3 base game. And basic weather, at this point its a shame to have a simulaton life game and don't even have rain in base game. They can always make money with vacation DLC like Island living or snowy escape in the sims 4. And the mutiplayer is promissing, we will see.

[@passionable90]

OOOOO, Okay, I love that they're possibly bringing cutscenes back

[@PeechiYamma]

Let’s go the facial feature is what I am here for, just like 2k

[@Sara_Raney]

Awesomeness. I can't wait to be online with others.

[@MrsSgtEagle0805]

Would be nice if we could do more with the worlds. Alot more spaces to work with for one.

[@userafw]

This means they will have lots of paid and/or bonus DLC available from the start. I wonder if there will be any mod creator/Maxis collabs on a larger scale than we've seen on TS4?

[@userafw]

Early DLC packs had better include at least one with proceeds to charity.

[@taerina9802]

Open world is such a must!

[@babypotato9147]

Highly doubt all of this in the upcoming sims 5. Just gonna be broken💀

Hopefully they add a realistic childbirth in this one. I dnt mind downloading mods and cc but its a pain in the butt having to download all these mods and cc

That's literally the only mod I'm interested in.. but I can't afford get to work at the moment.. and was big sad when I saw it's required lol

I can't wait untill the sims 5 is out! It seems sooo nice to me, but I don't think it wil be a lott better than the sims 4.

[@CustardCream22]

You're going to be waiting many years before Sims 5 comes out! This is a project hence it's name. It's going to run alongside Sims 4. EA clearly stated this in a video.... 😂

[@mijnwereld7629]

@@CustardCream22 Yes I know! I play the sims 4 for 5 years now and I'm just curious about the sims 5. I think it is even better that they spend a long time making it, the longer the better the game wil be! Right?

photo-sims more like one way to invade people's privacy.

But we sit there with our phones. Our smart tvs. Facial recognition surveillance used by local governments, retail stores etc…so you can’t really point fingers at EA for invading privacy over cas selfie scan lol. It’s everywhere literally!! lol.

I can't wait for it, It's gonna be cool with the Character Collisions, because then, I'll Have Access to Controlling my sims using the Arrow keys to move! What will happen if I bump into a sim in The Sims 5

Lets hope itll be like the sims 4 and have ways to get all dlc packs for free.
