SimGuruNeel has confirmed some information about Apartments in The Sims 4 City Living. Basically, if you planned to expand Apartments beyond the world of San Myshuno, you’re in for some bad news. He confirmed that not only will we be completely out of options to build an apartment from scratch (like in The Sims 2 Apartment Life), but we also won’t be able to place apartments outside San Myshuno.
@PriTZanon Hey, you cannot build your own apartment complex

@knewt93 Hey, apartments are only available in the new world San Myshuno

This is the end of Sims 4 for me. They really water down their content… so if I want my sims to live in apartments I HAVE to have make them live in the same city over and over and over again….. SO stupid and limited. Sims 4 is done. Just drop it now and move onto Sims 5 please.

If you don’t like the content, don’t buy and wait until 2019.

I doubt sims 5 will be any better st this point nor would people buy it.

They said if sims 4 isn’t successful, there will be no sims 5. :/ I reckon they are just trying to make this game as fun as possible while still making it avaliable for low end computers.

Drop it like it’s hot because the limitations make it rot!

Modders will be on it the day it comes out!
Ah well, bit disappointed. :/ At least the lot traits are customizable. And as long as there are plenty of options to choose from, I can over look that bit.
Wow they introduce a big new feature like Apartments and they still dumb that down too? i’m guessing Sims 2 still reigns in best features…
Reply to Jeremy
Yep which is where I’m going right now. The Sims 2: Apartment Life!
Reply to Jeremy
ikr the other games are so much better in so many ways, only thing better about the sims 4 is the graphics
Reply to Jeremy
hopefully they’ll introduce the sims 2 feature of apartment in Sims 4 University, which is dormitory.
that is disappointing. so many great apartments on the gallery, such a lost opportunity for creativity. i wonder if it can modded.
This sucks. I wish we didn’t have to be so limited. Hopefully modders can do something about it.
But we can move up to 4 families!
Reply to Shattered
If EA really pushed their development team they can maybe get it down to 2 families until release!
There goes at least half of the people who were gonna order this EP.
Disgusted…. Seriously, it’s a joke?! One year for that ?? Congrulation ea you continue to regress when I thought you could not do worse 🙂
I hope 🙁
Sims 4 is such a dumbed down mess. Was this game supposed to be released for smartphones?
Reply to Hitchslapped
it was meant to be multiplayer to start with but the mess of the online-only simcity made them reconsider
I’m still excited,I love the sims4 and I welcome Evrything they bring
Reply to Nellie
I honestly wish I had that amount of optimism…
Just when i was so excited about this ep
Funny how when the leaks were out, everyone was saying they should just announce it already. Are you happy now?
I’m still excited for it 😀
OMG you changed the comment section thank goodness!!
Anyway, yeah that’s a load of crap. In TS3 you could have build something close to apartments, but not being able to build apartments in TS4 adds another limitation that the game didn’t need.
This looks like an EP to skip, kinda like Island Paradise in Sims 3 (but that EP was buggy as fuck anyway so whatever)
Why are we so limited? Ohgod. It’s disappointing. Stop limiting us, seriously!
This is the beginning of many bad news to come
Modders it’s go time! This is the moment you’ve been training for!
EA is so fucking stupid. Just when you think they couldn’t regress and make the game any worse, they pull this dumb shit. How is it that previous iterations could do all the things that they’ve taken out? Done with this game tbh.
Well… What did you expect ? It’s the Sims 4 ! Haha !
well looks like we are all gonna have to wait for the next S4 EP. Maybe the next one wont disappoint us as much. Ill set an alarm for when the next EP comes out *Sets alarm to go off in a year*
Reply to Max
Maybe March.
Why that? They still have October for fix those stuff, there goes the half of the people who would order this EP.
They say: ‘We love community feedback” but my guess they just wanna to sell some unfinished and bad explores Expansions.
I’m very hyped wet, everything is good, but they have to focus on the Community.
Sooooo excited for this! I wouldn’t want apartments in different towns anyway. I like to keep a certain vibe for every city anyway! This is what I’ve been waiting for since apartments are (and continue it be ) my absolute favourite! I am however not to hyped about the price but I’m just gonna wait to get it around christmas time when target has half their store on sale (srsly wtf target)

They must be crazy… Is that open world game supposed to be open? It’s total a joke setting too much limitations.

I’m starting to think its there goal to not do well with this series or to just flat out piss off the fans? are they even trying?
Well you can build aparments in TS2 with cheats, so one can only hope 🙂
I am upset about this but cannot wait still 🙂
I can understand the frustration, but I have to think that the main reason for a lot of their ‘outline’ is to ensure against crashes etc, ie: higher quality imagery and effects and lower amount of information to load… like the size of Town’s etc.. I know that since I’ve had this game, since it came out about, it’s crashed about a handful of times, which is really not that much.. compared to prior games. Looking forward to this game pack! 🙂

yeah, the prior installments would crash on me CONSTANTLY. this one? never has, which is a relief since my computer is about 10 years old and programs crashing really messes stuff up.
I’m tired of being disappointed.
I don’t get it, it seems like the continuously miss what is important to their target audience? Or at the very least, they miss what is integral to their core audience that actually buys expansions?
wow, it is almost like all of the people whining were forced to play this new sims entry, instead of CHOOSING TO. seriously, they do not care that it is not EXACTLY what you want, which is good; people are stupid and make terrible decisions. sims 4 was not one of them, and this is honestly one of their best expansions to date. your loss if you let your immature whinging keep you from playing it.
