THE LOADING SCREEN TEND TO BOTHER ME BUT 25 LOTS FOR RESIDENTIAL AND COMMUNITY ….SERIOUSLY?
DID THEY MENTIONED IF THEY WILL MAKE A CAW TO MODIFY WORLD AND EXTEND IT LIKE IN THE SIMS 2 ? CAUSE IF WE GET ALL THE BAD STUFF FROM THE SIMS 2 AT LEAST CAN WE HAVE THE GOOD STUFF FROM IT!!

Yeah but I thought one of the whole points of this loading screen things was so we didn’t have to go through that…

One of the things that makes it most confusing how terms are being tossed around without a proper structure. Hoods, districts, lots,etc.

I think the game will be fun and as for loading screens well we had it in sims2 and it certainly didnt bother me one bit I still loved and played the game

We just all need to see live mode in action because even after Graham tried to clarify it still only made people confused lol, words aren’t going to do it justice, we got to see it and hopefully we will.

We do not know what they mean by load and since they left out the word screen we can assume it is like Sims 3. Whenever you move to a different lot it loads.

I was really looking forward to Sims4, but I find myself getting more and more put off the more that is revealed. No CAST and colour wheel was a huge let down, but no open world either? What the! It makes no sense for them to take this many steps backwards, especially not as the open world and extensive customisation were some of the main attractions of Sims3. I really don’t get it, they must be hammered when making these decisions.

OMG its worse than we thought!! If you read the whole post it says further down “Now, when you’re traveling between a world, a neighborhood, or a lot, you will incur a short load. There is only one lot that’s “active” at any single time, meaning if you want to use another lot you will travel there.” There will be a load between LOTS!! Just like the sims 2!! This can’t be happening. I thought it was just a load between the neighborhoods, but its a load between lots as well? What are they doing?
Again, taken from the quote above “or a lot, you will incur a short load” Noooooooooooooo!! What are they doing? I am def not buying this now. I am not going back to “loads between lots” like in the sims 2. In my opinion, especially now that I have learned there is loading between LOTS, they have gone to far back in progress. They ruined the series.

Dido, they are taking so many steps back. They need some new producers over at the sims. I get the whole “wanting to go back to the core of the sims”, but they are going TOO FAR the other way. You can go back to the core of the sims and not go backward on a lot of things. The no color wheel is a HUGE mistake and makes absolutely no sense. I get it if they don’t want patterns, but a freaking color wheel? That doesn’t take up any space. I asked my husband (he is a software engineer with his PhD) why he thinks they would do this and he said he has no idea because it doesn’t make any sense. He said, EVEN IF they are trying to save space, a color wheel won’t make enough of a difference, if any, to matter. Also as expansions are added those “little” load times will get bigger and bigger as more content is added.
