Everything Wrong With The Sims 4: Eco Lifestyle 

Exactly my thoughts! I was hoping they would add it to the base game update but off course they didn't :( only the strange fire in the toilet..

Or cara with different modifications/designs that can be either more "industrial" (older models, diesel engines, or cars with special additions) or "eco-friendly" (hybrid and electric cars, rvs, etc.)

But how else will they charge another $40 for cars?

You caaan get debug ones with using the cheat: bb.showhiddenobjects then the cheat bb.showlivehiddenobjects But your sims still can't drive.

I want to be able to choose to not use a car to save the planet. Is that too much to ask for

Sim Guru 1: Hey. You left parts of the roof on this build unpainted. Want me to fix it? Sim Guru 2: Hehe...nah, leave it. It'll drive Lil Simsie insane.

I said this on Twitter. Lots like the Portsmouth Promenade prove they can build. But I think they build badly on purpose to enable the Game Changers to complain and produce content to fix them. In producing the videos it advertises the pack to the audience and also enables us to see all sorts of build items and functions both used by the bad build and the 'fixed' one. It's all just advertising

I mean you're gonna remove the build from one of the gallery anyway. We get the the expansions pack faster and I'm fine with that

Simplicity 🤯

Seriously, I swear they do

I do stuff like make tiny houses in the mansion parts of Willow Creak lol

@@chillfactory9000 yes potentially like TS3 into the future revived culture sci-fi

The Landgraabs: Im four parallel universes ahead of you

I love Oasis Springs, but I'm not a fan of the Mediterranean style, so I have my real life suburban house and a HUGE modern house in the middle of the desert I'm a failure

@@fruitology_ no ur not. You are creative and not normal which is great

Yes ! In the get famous world( forgot the name) if you look on top of the hills you can see a whole bustling city full of life and then you cant play it lol it depresses me

Isla Paradiso was the biggest Sims 3 world with 118 lots. Sims 4 has now hit 200 lots including apartments and excluding vacation worlds and special lots.

Senna Augustus well that’s just depressing, love being scammed

I was just playing with TS3 and noticed right away how much livelier neighborhoods feel. Also EA’s builds were mostly pretty unobjectionable! Lol I just went on vacation in the French world and some of the houses had to have taken hours. Meanwhile in TS4...

Same. I see them and want to visit them but you can't...

@Hanne Aertgeerts She is for all I know. She has 2 younger siblings, Brett and Shanna(I think thats how you spell it).

B Smith shayna

wutlilly No it’s Shanna I follow her instagram

I always thought it was shayna too you learn something new every day

And haters are ashamed they reacted the way they did 😂

The JSPH thanks for saving us the trouble

@@leonielovemusic nope Ea is still a bad company and they don't do things that the community wants

cancelled. This isn’t ea this is eco lifestyle

@@thek-nerd3143 well it's made by EA lol

technically we didn't, since the title made us assume it's a full on rant and that everything is wrong with the pack but the title states it's about everything that's wrong with the pack. And if it's just 2-3 things, that's everything.

yeah it's annoying as hell

She said everything that was wrong. Its not her fault that she didnt have a long list of faults for the pack my dude

I mean she’s got a series called “everything wrong with” where she just discusses packs. So I guess she didn’t lie about anything.

Honestly eco lifestyle has a lot of gameplay structure. Its pretty good honestly. Its just a matter of if you personally like crafting and everything like that.

I only play the game; I'm not a builder because I'm terrible at all aspects of it... and I really enjoy Eco Lifestyle.

Honestly I’m happy to hear this is the case cause I’ve heard a lot. It’s good to know some non builders are able to enjoy it and the gameplay structure 😫🙌🏾 when I say deeper game play I meant fixing the problems that should be fixed, more of a generations pack for the ages that severely need gameplay. Thank goodness the knitting pack is coming for the elders and I hope teens and under are in development. I’m really not saying it’s a bad pack, it’s going to be great however doesn’t mean we don’t still need deeper gameplay, as good as it is doesn’t fix that problem ❤️

The whole builders Vs players - why do you think the game changers are mostly builders, instead of LPers? Because they won't find out how shallow the actual content is if they're too busy focusing on build items.

@S C Personally, I just like the crafting aspect. Like I'm definitely getting the knitting pack for the same reason

I had a game where I made a sim, seduced the dude, moved in and got married to him, kicked out his ex wife and child and then killed him so I'd get his money and house :p

Kitty Kat oh thankgod I’m not the only person 😂

Kitty Kat I played Judith Ward and she had a love child with him. His wife never noticed even though the paparazzi caught them together all the time. 🤣

Kitty Kat you are my kinda gal! I love ruining families 😂😂

LOL I totally forgot that didn’t come with toilets but now that I’m remembering that God as soon as I realize that the house didn’t have toilets my Sims had already peed themselves twice or more

I wish we could edit those too!

totally agree with you would make it more lived in :)

I’m pretty sure if you go to your gameplay options in the settings you can make the houses fillable.

Line Bach in Get Famous a bunch of lots didn’t have toilets in them when it first came out so people had to add their own

ChazNatlo Lol, this must be why that didn’t seem so weird to me. 😂

a mcmansion if i've ever seen one

this is actually a great idea

Pain and suffering is inevitable

I want this.

@@vay5540 Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional. '._.'

Hold up there's more- 1. Don't touch the **walls, door's, or window's** 2. One of these world's has a house with a door that goes nowhere-fix that one

Mikhail Savov 😂🤣

😂

lmaooo

Hampstr

Yes 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

i totally didnt make my rags to riches sim whos living out of a dumpster and has no money get pregnant just so they could use it 😌

i totally agree because i’m such a family oriented player and we need more build mode objects for toddlers! this is one of the main reasons i am purchasing this pack, but i’m worried about the gameplay aspect. i don’t want my sims living in a dirty neighborhood!

wait, your neighbours aren’t paid actors?

happened to a friend of mine in the beginning of the pandemic EVERYONE moved to their family members and she was the only one left lmao

The dream

Uhhh I’m the main character sooo ofc 😂

i wish

I keep wondering if they'll come out with a game pack with cars.

I just have a decorative truck next to my tiny house on wheels and pretend my Sims use it to haul the house then mostly teleport or use brooms to travel otherwise. The deco truck is also a surface, so I plan to put a cooler and a solar panel in the bed. I miss functional cars (in TS3 I had Ecto-1, the 1989 Batmobile, a DeLorean, a ‘67 Impala, a 2-tone ‘57 Corvette, a VW Bus that could be painted like the Mystery Machine, and a ‘73 Beetle to choose from)

YES totally

Awesome idea wish they would do that....guess it won't happen but can keep hoping....

YESSSSSSS

id rather they add it in the base game in an update considering most of that was in sims 3

Great name for the pack too!! maybe we could get some proper bicycles too!!

we kno

Totally didn’t hear that at the beginning

you all are welcome then 😁

Wait is she just getting sent the pack early or something?

NO WAY!!!

Isn't Windenburg and the University world inspired from European style or am I wrong? Thought Windenburg looked pretty English tudor house styled (sorry if I spelled anything wrong)

@@LollyDwolf Yeah its all inspired by England im pretty sure

i thought germany

@@laurenray8458 I'd say Windenburg has Germany/Denmark/France (also, look at the names of the families there: Munch, Bjergsen, Le Chien ...) vibes while Britechester is pretty English

@@michakaikarsten7331 Tho, the houses in Windenburg looks very english to me unless the Brits took that style from other countries, I've been to England and they have alot of houses that has that Tudor house style (The white houses with the dark wood). In the Tower of London for example, which is supposed to be how the old medieval London looked like, that place had houses like Windenburg

Omg i read this just as it said it on the loading screen OMGGG!!!😱😂

I saw that last night and I was like. What

I don’t want free earbuds

I was very confused lmao

She didn't?

wouldn't it be neat to be able to make your own working apartment buildings instead of just remodeling existing ones? on the bigger lots I always build whole city blocks/neighborhoods for the look, but it would be neat to have that actually work

@@donovanhendrick7567 I've found so many neat apartment builds and I like my sims in apartment style living. It feels more realistic to me. And they should definitely like give an ability for you to just section off rooms and call each one like an apartment.

I love apartments it’s just so annoying because npcs never move in to any apartments or lots at all in city living for me

I agree with you completely! I would especially love to see beaches in other worlds, too! :’)

@@jessib4492 There's actually a river in Foxbury Institute that you can swim in but it would be cool to actually have a functioning beach in Brindleton Bay.

I want to make a motel soooo bad

Do you live in post Communistic country? 😅

Lauren De Styles see, for me the apartments actually look like the ones where I live. It’s just very dependent on where you live.

Angee Čelínova no lol I live in a Canadian city but my dad is from a post-communism country lol

I agree, all the apartment around where I live are more like city living apartments. Only time I've actually seen apartments like that are in some animes lol

Just use the roommate function. Build a double type lot and use the lock door feature.

not everyone has university to access the roommate system :(

@@segiitaff6421 you could always just make a larger "family", separate them out and set the autonomy level high. There are ways.

@@sarahjo7837 I've seen @JamesTurner do that, with hilarious frustration 🤣

@@thelorak2494 not saying it's perfect by any means. But is doable if that's what gameplay you're looking for.

true..

You may be right, but there are some people that don’t like Sims 3

I think we look back on sims 3 with Rose tinted spectacles... I remember not being able to buy the masses of content they released for it because it was all reeeallly pricey and usually didn't come with a lot.

Except good luck running the sims3 where it doesn't act like a tank full of rocks Also anyone remember just how darn buggy their island pack was?

>The Sims 3 stuff packs and store would like to chat

Which is why people were hyped for the pack, to be able to create a dirty world. I've seen so many game changers say this pack is great because they are only focused on the build and buy, not the actual gameplay mechanics.

Yeah. I also didn't know what to do? I just kinda idled around the places.

Agreed. I never build, so none of this is really relevant for me. My HUGE complaint with this pack is the community spaces because it seems you can only vote on them if the lot is IN the community you live in? When the community only has 3 or 4 lots, to need to have 1 of them per community be a community space is just not functional. I will basically never use that feature even though I really want to because I don't want to waste that many lots for them. They should have the community spaces be restricted to Worlds (i.e. only 1 needed per world) at most.

@@derangedone13 Huh, I didn't know that yet. I haven't really messed with community lots yet. Oh, LittleMsSam made a MOD fix for the Bug House so it doesn't take forever and a day to get it's health up. She shortened the animation cycle & 3Xed how much it gives.

@@LWolf12 You all are great and have great opinions that matter but lilsimsie is more about building

Go watch plumbella hen she and kayak are my favorite sims youtubers

thats why you get married at your husbands wife house

yeah lucky not to have drama in ur life in this time of the world but i do know u meant basic meaningless drama to distract from the evil in the world rn and i support that

This is you preorder when you got money! 😂

I have more than enough money to buy it but I hate this pack wtf. The world is strange.

kayak?

idubbbz it’s a inside joke. They put Kayak on purpose I’m pretty sure

its honestly amazing its 10% my fav

I just like the build mode items lol

I've been playing this pack now only 430~ hours but I have never loved any Sims pack or game more than Eco lifestyle. I'm not really eco myself, not vegan, not a builder etc, but this pack is the best Sims content I have ever seen since Sims Castaway came out. People just have a lot of different opinions and that is completely fine. It's good that everyone possibly can have something in all the packs they already have =)

People cheer it on because they like it. we're allowed to hold a different opinion from you😂

I use cars for my machinimas, but for live gameplay, there is no reason to have them. It's not an open world.

Same there’s no open world, unless they did it like the sims 3 console but it’s so pointless

@@username4261 The sims 2 had cars without an open world. Its more about them not just poofing into existence whenever they go somewhere, aka realism.

Sims 3 had a lot of car choices. Like a lot. And a lot of people want sims 4 to be sims 3 with better graphics. A lot was done right with sims 3 and cars along with the open world was top tier. Same with sims 2

@@wisterwilson8774 And to be honest, I enjoyed Sims 3 and 2. Even though I don't see the need in them with no open world, Sims 2 did utilize transportation in a nice way that could work.

SAME! we have the same laptop and it is so slow running the sims and crashes so often :,) the number of builds I've lost lmaoo

I pray for you to get a better laptop that plays the game efficiently.

Mine is from 2012 and while it takes a long time to open up, it actually does pretty well and I have every single pack and a ton of cc 🙃 but I am saving up for an actual gaming laptop lol

@@maggimcmahon3890 I haven't had problems running with mine running the game; it just runs its fan like it's gonna blast off (maybe someday it will lol)

@@JasonRMJ Thank you for your prayers. Hopefully someday soon I can build a gaming computer

Edgar Nello then both those packs would be worthless :/

Good luck 👍

chantrelle brown thank you!

Rosalyn Gummer may coffee be on your sidr

Good Luck! 🤞🏼

You should have waited. Oh well , good luck with your all nighter !

That has been my number one gripe with the sims 4. But then you look at sims 3 and what a laggy, stuttering mess it was due to those huge, busy lots. Adding more worlds to the sims 4 has helped some, and I recently learned about culling and how much more alive the game feels when you turn it off. Has made a big difference!

@@vrshepherd7316 Would've been nice if we could at least place our own empty lots where ever we wanted, like in the previous Sims games

@@vrshepherd7316 what's culling? 🤔

It’s unlocking at 11pm in the UK!

LMAO

me too

In my country is 9:15 pm😀 goodnight , have a nice day😽

@@katerinakawkova4939 oooch, Poland: 21:59 ;D

it's 10 pm ,

voayel czech broo😀

YESSS

same with move objects, also u are so pretty! 😍

I meant on the game lol.

YES damn I was crying this morning after I did the update... had to start a new save game

@@lk-ds1ys right? Usually I am just a builder, but last night I was motivated to actually play the game proper. Played for about four hours yesterday and an hour this morning. Then my sim traveled an my game broke.

I heard that fixed the crashing issue today.

Czena Kramer Same!

i preordered it and i’m really excited!

Packs go on sale all the time

I don't even have the game installed anymore, because my PC is soooo crap, I can't play the game. Can even think about buying a new dlc, bacause would just make it more heavy... 😢😢😢😢

It's not even expensive

Your time has come

Jenny Of Oldstones yes indeed it has
