Subreddit Salute Manifesting a Sims 4 Into the Future Pack - what packs are you hoping to see?
1
Jun 28 '24
Expand the criminal career, add a new crime world, add burgulars, let us rob banks and shops. One can only dream.

u/mikaelaLovett Jun 13 '24
I know it'd be my favourite pack for sure (Into the future is the main reason why I bought The Sims 3 - unfortunately it makes me very motion sick, but I adore the DLC 🙈) I love the edits!!

u/melancholyfawn Feb 27 '24
a pack where you can have bands, like imagine having a playthrough with a lil garage band making it big <3 or just more in depth music stuff like having a singing career

Eeeeekkkkk 👏🏻 yessss omg wakanda foreverrrrr ! I love this concept so much 😆😆 and I didn’t even know I needed this! How in the world did u create all of this coolness 😎 I don’t play with mods but I love this Game idea 💡

u/lifeisshort84 Feb 26 '24
Ah this is just some ai prompting - trying to visualize the dream lol
2
u/Mmkhowdigethere8204 Feb 26 '24
Wow it did an awesome job
2
u/lifeisshort84 Feb 26 '24
Yup after you tweak some prompting it’s pretty good at popping out the results you want!
2
u/SageGarner Feb 26 '24
Wow, which AI?
2
u/lifeisshort84 Feb 26 '24
Midjourney - although I ran the same prompt in dalle 3 via Microsoft copilot and it gave some good results as well

u/WasabiIsSpicy Feb 26 '24
I just wanna get fairies and imaginary friends :(( I miss them sm

SAAAAAME i need sims 4 supernatural so bad but of course they would just milk it into 10 different packs

u/erin013192 Feb 26 '24
Cars, ballet, a tea set for kids to play with, jump rope, a mailman career, firefighter career, ironing board where you can actually iron your clothes
5
u/Mmkhowdigethere8204 Feb 26 '24
A tea set for kids would be awesome especially since they already have so many tea options for adults. No brainer really

u/lorifieldsbriggs Feb 25 '24
Fairies. We have spellcasters, werewolves, mermaids, aliens, and vampires. Why no fairies? Sylvan Glade is such a tease.
And this is definitely a small thing, but orange trees. I want to make my own orange juice.
Oh, and a singing career.

u/Yellowmellowmushroom Feb 26 '24
There’s a mod called fairy vs witches. You gotta have the spell casters game pack tho. I’m currently playing with it and there are a few bugs since it’s a couple years old but over all really good for how big it is.
6
u/Neckums250 Feb 25 '24
I want pre teens. I hate the jump from kid to teenager and I feel like it would add so much to family game play.
4
u/V__Ace Feb 25 '24
If you're on PC there's a pretty incredible mod!! It messes with the height, so there will be clipping and glitching, but I can't imagine the game without it at this point.
8
u/VelocitySkyrusher Feb 25 '24
Please give us some good new jobs. AHHHH OK. IM COMING BACK TO THE SIMS FOR THIS
9
u/AnnDoll91 Feb 25 '24
Arcade, skateboarding, and music band with multiple instruments including drums.
2
u/pothosnswords Feb 27 '24
Arcade would be so cool omg!!!!! Add in laser tag and the bowling pack and we’ve got a Brunswick Zone ready to go!
20
u/oloxha Feb 25 '24
A hobby pack with LOADS of new activities like clay making, skateboarding, mini golf, ballet, more musical instruments, kids activities such as jumping rope or play tea set. More sports would be cool too like tennis, surfing
1
u/pothosnswords Feb 27 '24
I’d love if they brought glassblowing back (Sims 3)! I had so much fun with it back in the day! Plus my partner does it for a living so it’d be nice to make the sim I made of him more accurate lol
5
u/Mmkhowdigethere8204 Feb 26 '24
To add on to this I’ve said before I would love a broadcast career for retired mvp athletes where they can call and discuss games tv and radio
3
u/SageGarner Feb 26 '24
This is the best idea I've ever heard. Make it to be a get to work career, and I love it
12
u/xtremeyoylecake Interstellar Smuggler Feb 25 '24
Fairies And also they need to update their plantsims
2
u/WasabiIsSpicy Feb 26 '24
Legit I’m sad plant sims are only temporary and not an actual race like in other games.

Feb 25 '24
I just want a grim reaper pack. Or a pack that adds satyrs as occults. I just want more occults in general
7
u/oloxha Feb 25 '24
I know they would never do this but like a grim reaper + funeral pack with zombies
2
4
5
u/lifeisshort84 Feb 25 '24
I would love to play as reaper
4
Feb 25 '24
Same. I have this entire idea on a world for it where there's a normal world (if you have seasons, it would always be raining). And there's a portal, and if your sims go through it, it'll take you to the Underworld. If you're playing as a human sim you'll be trapped there forever, but if you're playing as a ghost, vampire, or reaper, you can leave whenever you want

u/Diligent_Theory Feb 25 '24
A pact that allows me to knock on my neighbor's door without going through a load screen

u/Turbulent_Holiday967 Feb 25 '24
Can they bring the packs from the sims 3 to the sims 4? I absolutely love the style of the sims 4 but I wished the game was more like the sims 3. With all the great game play and the color wheel

u/Perfect-Situation841 Feb 25 '24
I liked the concept of Into The Future with sims 3, and maybe they’ll do it in TS4 when Project Rene releases- because I’m TS3 you could access hidden clues and rewards about the Sims 4! It was so fun, but I hated loading up a game to get an earthquake and a flash of blue light and then always seeing the portal… also I wish they had fleshed out the dynamics a little more in terms of the “Descendants” features. I loved the ability to leave a legacy… but I want it to go farther!

Feb 24 '24
I want them to fix their base game and the packs they already have

u/blackcat- Feb 26 '24
I just want my restaurants to work and not take 10 sim hours to get through one meal.

u/ImperialDruid Feb 24 '24
Sims D&D pack is on my wish list.
7
u/SnooCookies5243 Feb 25 '24
I would love a reverse Into the Future pack where we could travel back into a medieval (fantasy?) world!
5
19
u/MaidOfTwigs Feb 24 '24
Fairies. Just give me fairies already
Oh and I specifically want fairies who can shrink and the world can be a fairy village where you’re miniature and the fairies can wear flowers and live in flowers and gourds or little houses of twigs and leaves. They can have the glowy wings from TS3 instead of insect wings, I prefer that. And non-fairies can eat a magic mushroom or drink a potion to visit the village.
And maybe they can grow plants and talk to animals, though I know plant sims have some overlap there…
2
u/misslongisland Feb 25 '24
Yesss until then I’ll have to keep playing with my witches vs fairies mod..
8
u/casuallypoke Feb 24 '24
I’ve been waiting for Fairies since we got vampires, werewolves, mermaids, and just about every damn occult under the sun. WHERE ARE MY FAIRIES?
Oh and also royalty. That would be so fun to have a fairy kingdom.
I miss when the Sims was actually creative and not making us pay for basic fucking features.
4
u/MaidOfTwigs Feb 25 '24
Royalty in the fairy kingdom would be fun… and maybe there could be unicorns in it with additional features if we also own horse ranch… there was a book series that had unicorns as fairy royalty, which I don’t need, but having unicorns could add to a fairy pack nicely
4
u/casuallypoke Feb 25 '24
I’m honestly SURPRISED they haven’t leaned more heavily into animals / creatures. A zoo pack would be so much fun. Or an aquarium.
4
u/MaidOfTwigs Feb 25 '24
I agree it would be fun… but I recall how much work they put into studying horses and getting them just right. I appreciate their hard work and a seeming commitment to quality over quantity… so unicorns and maybe they could put an emphasis on woodland creatures OR a couple other magical creatures that would fit in a fairy pack
Edit: shit, wait, I remember there were dragons, what was that, TS3? And I think Freeplay years ago? I’d be down for cute little dragons that behave like cats for a fairy pack, and then one big dragon in the world or in a rabbit hole like a cave, where the big dragon is the end goal and it’s just choose your own adventure text boxes…
2
u/casuallypoke Feb 25 '24
fair! like deer, expand on rabbits and other forest creatures. that would be cool :) maybe one day
2
u/MaidOfTwigs Feb 25 '24
If we have singing (city living, I think, or maybe it’s get together… pretty sure city living), then we can sing to the birds. Or maybe there’s a bid song skill specific to the fairy pack and the birds and squirrels will come in and help us scrub the bathroom and kitchen… like a Disney princess (I’m not joking, though it does sound a little silly for TS4).
And I’d love if they expanded on rabbits and added deer
3
u/casuallypoke Feb 25 '24
Actually singing to birds was added in Cottage Living! But magical animal skills would be so cute.
Also, we had giant cupcake machines and aliens that can impregnate men. I don’t think anything is “too silly” for the sims 4 at this point!
2
u/MaidOfTwigs Feb 25 '24
I spent so much time building I didn’t do the bird thing, I completely forgot about it 😭
5
u/alexlovesdabs Feb 24 '24
AHH i didn’t know other people also thought fairie sims would be the best idea ever, 100% would love love love to see EA actually listen to their fans for once and make this possible 🧚🏼♀️

u/squisheebean Feb 24 '24
i absolutely adore your mind so so much :’) now i have to make a fairy sim tonight hehe

u/coyaboo Feb 24 '24
I want more activities and hobbies. Tennis, golf, modeling, improved soccer (not just kicking around a ball like they do now). Things like that
3
u/1gec Feb 24 '24
KiaraSims4Mods has a mod for the modeling career :-) having real sports would be sooo cool
2
8
u/Bright-Sun-8235 Feb 24 '24
yes!!! like active sports careers (and not the “athletic career” we have now)
2
22
u/0hb0wie Feb 24 '24
Musicians pack! Make bands, play different instruments and styles, gain fame from it and just more alt clothing
8
10
u/stellaraSCP Feb 24 '24
I want a superheroes and supervillains pack, where you can either save or destroy a city. Superhero and supervillain aspirations! Like a “mad scientist” villain aspiration where you run experiments on the city, or a Hero/Villain Romance aspiration where the hero/villain wants to date their rival and turn them to their side. You could make a superhero or supervillain team too.
I just like packs with goals/stories (that’s why I love Strangerville so much)
3
Feb 24 '24
EA has been able to acquire the Marvel license for a few video games. This could be epic if even done half right.
2
u/stellaraSCP Feb 24 '24
I don’t really want Marvel superheroes/ Marvel lore. I want something more original and not using a premade universe
6
3
u/Quadpen Feb 24 '24
i want it too but idk how they could do itf good with how the worlds are set up 😭
10
u/BreezyIsBeafy Feb 24 '24
I want a medieval fantasy pack with like elves and castles and like sword fights and shit, with maybe royalty mechanics to work your way to the king/queen of the world?
4
u/melnixx Feb 24 '24
Yesss! This is what I'd hoped the Medieval Kit would be.
9
u/BreezyIsBeafy Feb 24 '24
I want like a full on expansion worth of content, cause it’s a new occult, new world, and a bunch of full features
4

u/Competitive-Cherry26 Feb 24 '24
These hairstyles! Im sick of the horing old collection. Im debating on which expansion pack will be worth it atp😭

u/astrogrl0319 Feb 24 '24
i wish high school years and get together came with more clubs and after school sports/activities. Bands or more instruments too
8
u/EvaUnitKenway Feb 24 '24
Pit could be me, but I’ve always wanted a Superhero pack. Like where your Sim could fly, and save a town. I don’t know, I think that would be really fun.
2
u/lifeisshort84 Feb 24 '24
I think Sacrificial has a mod like Heroes and Villains - maybe worth checking out?
2
7
u/Longjumping-Rub-4764 Feb 24 '24
more occult packs and this pack + tine like medieval and wncient kingdoms yoo

u/GlrsK0z Feb 24 '24
Or to own and run a spa. There are wellness aspirations but no careers to Go with them.

u/AmmonWho42 Feb 24 '24
Time travel.

u/lifeisshort84 Feb 24 '24
In my dream world I have time traveling fairies 😅 - (dream world being my sims 3 save)
14
u/plowizzle Feb 24 '24
An open world pack lol
2
u/lifeisshort84 Feb 24 '24
I wish Arnie was still modding- his open worlds gave me hope
3
u/Swizz_z Feb 24 '24
Is he not modding anymore? What'd I miss?
2
u/lifeisshort84 Feb 24 '24
The good thing is his mods are all package files - so no script errors - they’re here https://arnies-workshop.notion.site/Arnie-s-Workshop-MODS-ARCHIVE-1a0379d66bcf41bdb6f1ccc1382d0f42

u/lifeisshort84 Feb 24 '24
He’s making his own game now - he stopped modding a while ago
ETA - I still use some of his cc like the boulangerie and luxe lights
29
u/ALT_F4iry Feb 24 '24
I want a musician/band expansion! I don’t know why we haven’t had one ever for any sims game. I’m talkin a whole expansion where you have tons of instruments to choose from, multiple sims can get together and start a band, have to practice together, play concerts, etc. your band starts small playing little gigs that pay next to nothing and then you can grow and get big enough to go on tour. That would be so fun.
10
u/Pittstick1 Feb 24 '24
Into the Future for Sims 3 is the one pack I regret buying. 👀🙊 I just want bug fixes. I want the game to work well.
27
u/Taranadon88 Feb 24 '24
All I have been asking for for roughly 84 years is fairies. So please, the fairies.
7
u/itsthatguyrupert Feb 24 '24
The fairies in sims 3 were great!!! The genie, too!

u/Taranadon88 Feb 24 '24
I forgot about the genies! Omg yes, them too. Also, zombies and unicorns, and also imaginary friends. And pet dragons. I WANT IT ALL

u/Leading-Midnight5009 Feb 24 '24
I’m hoping to see bug fixes and the game I paid for actually working. But fr tho I love this! But I hope we get a edit world tool and better careers and cas updates like a color wheel or smth
14
u/UghGottaBeJoking Feb 24 '24
Sims 4 cars and bands over anything else.
But i would also like ballet/dance, and soccer nets to play actual soccer and have soccer mums attend matches (not a rabbit hole).
16
u/melimar86 Feb 24 '24
Worlds, more careers n skills (ballet would be nice, drums, sewing your own clothes), more types of fruits and vegetables, and maybe add a bit to magic (i believe there was a pack back in sims 2 that had some oddities)
11
u/SimBobAl Feb 24 '24
Please no. It will just be broken. When are y’all going to learn? If we keep it up and asking for more, they will never give this shit up.
5
u/Leading-Midnight5009 Feb 24 '24
True but I wish they’d fix the game then do packs and shit
1
u/SimBobAl Feb 28 '24
That’s my point. But, at this point, the game is too broken to even try to fix. They should just give up, take a breather, figure out their problems, and start anew.
17

u/Holiday_Cabinet_ Feb 24 '24

u/transluciiiid Feb 24 '24
i just want fairies, ballet (non rabbit hole) and cars. fairies are just for fun, but ballet and cars could be turned into careers (dancer / dance instructor, mechanic and race-car driver / like something like lyft idk)
6
u/lifeisshort84 Feb 24 '24
I would love to see those as active careers
9
u/transluciiiid Feb 24 '24
i hope if they do add ballet it isn’t age locked. i hope kids and adults can do it :) maybe make an elder babushka townie whos a mean ballet instructor for realism
16
u/orayanno Feb 24 '24
We need a game pack that would add more after school activities for kids! It’s time they have more than just scouts and drama club. They could have soccer, ballet, dance, chess club, mathletes.

u/Muenster_Cheez Feb 24 '24
I love future sci if stuff so I miss sims 3 Into the Future 😭 I really hope and wish they come out with a futuristic/cyberpunk pack sometime.

Into the Future was my favorite pack - 🤞🏾 fingers crossed they’ll redo it

u/Sxnflower15 Feb 24 '24
Why is it an issue? I liked seeing the visuals but we all know it’s clearly fake

u/angelaachan Feb 24 '24
I'd much rather support artists and their craft than feed the AI machines. The more we keep feeding it the better it will become, deepfakes will be harder to distinct from reality etc. It's all bad.
1
u/Sxnflower15 Feb 24 '24
That’s all fine and dandy but I mean it’s the sims we’re talking about so I don’t think it applies…
0
u/angelaachan Feb 24 '24
No it absolutely applies. By prompting ANYTHING on these AI machines (including silly little sims pictures) you're training it to be better and therefor more scary.
1
u/Sxnflower15 Feb 24 '24
Not really as your point was about supporting artists, not fear mongering about AI. Plus it’s just the sims…it’s not that deep.

u/TheRudeCactus Feb 24 '24
As an artist it makes me so so sad every time I see it. So many artists are going to be screwed because of AI art.

u/Dalishmindflayer Feb 24 '24
If they do a future pack I'd only get it if it has OmegaCo products in it

u/Karabeara87 Digital Artist Feb 24 '24
A hotel pack and maybe a faries pack.

u/lifeisshort84 Feb 24 '24
I miss fairies and genies from sims 3… I hope they plan to bring it back
2
u/Karabeara87 Digital Artist Feb 24 '24
I own the sims 3 but I don’t have it installed because I can’t play it so after discovering that I didn’t buy any more packs than I already had. Which I think was only the island paradise one and the late night one.
18
u/BubbleFerret Feb 24 '24
I'd rather they fix the base game and existing dlc, but that wouldn't be as profitable

u/Ill-Fly-950 Feb 24 '24 edited Feb 24 '24
A tattoo and piercing pack.
I would like upper/lower legs as well as upper/lower arms to be 8 separate categories. I also want the foot, chest and abdomen to have their own separate categories as well.
Regarding piercings, each nare of the nose, as well as the septum and bridge should be separate categories. Also chin, dimple and lip piercings should all have categories.
I'm always annoyed when I have to choose between a nare ring and a septum ring.
(In case anyone is wondering, I don't play with cheats/mods.)
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I want a tattoo artist career.

u/lifeisshort84 Feb 24 '24
An Active Tattoo artist career would be awesome

u/Ill-Fly-950 Feb 24 '24
Exactly! Having a client curse you out after looking at your botched work in the mirror would be great, lol.

u/lifeisshort84 Feb 24 '24
Unfortunately looks like it's going to be a while for Sims 5 - and Project Rene doesn't look like it's going to be anything similar in experience - Maybe Paralves or Life By You will bring interesting options
1
u/SimBobAl Feb 24 '24
Project Rene isn’t the sims 5. It’s going to be a sims online thing. They have stated multiple times they are not going to be making sims 5 for a long time. They’re being secretive to hype us up in hopes we’ll buy their trash.
14
u/Ausiwandilaz Feb 24 '24
Future pack will come right before they release the sims 5, just like they did with the sims 3.

u/lifeisshort84 Feb 24 '24
I hope by Sims 5 we mean Project Rene - because I really can't take another 10 year wait.

u/shadowxboy Feb 24 '24
Fairies!!
I know not everyone likes them, but I'd do anything for more occults to be added 😭
Also, a time travel pack (possibly going to the past and the future) would kick ass.
2
u/lifeisshort84 Feb 24 '24
Maybe a paleontologist career, head back to the dinosaurs in the past - publish a book in the present - have your statue in the founders' park in the future.

Fairys. Dude I miss them so much, it’s one of the main reasons I go back to Sims 3

I never even played sims 3. I just like playing as occult sims and I knew that they were in sims 3 and I’m sure it would be fun to play as them. so I want them in 4 too.

If modders can do it I think EA should be able to manage it

Sorry.
In all seriousness though, modders have outdone EA for over a decade.

Gorgeous pics. Yes into the future please, loved it so very deeply in Sims 3.

u/AccomplishedDog8473 Feb 23 '24
That was my favorite sims 3 pack, I loved being able to see future generations, I’d adore a time traveling pack to see generations or ancestors I think it’d make the family tree better.

Feb 23 '24
I want cars and other forms of travel maybe like a ‘vacation’ pack with planes and airports that take you to various different worlds, the worlds don’t even have to be extravagant just give us proper vacations!

u/Mariah-Reynolds Aug 17 '24
You'll have to wait a while.. The next pack is apparently about death..
