@Quaay00 You can run your own sales tables.

It seems that The Sims Team wanted to keep a certain feature secret until they’re ready to talk about The Sims 4 City Living’s Festivals. Still, one of the retail websites managed to leak a huge feature that you’ll be able to play with.
British gaming retail website GAME has provided an extended description of Festivals:
Discover Lively, Cultural Festivals: Enrich and grow your Sims by taking them to different festivals all over the city where they can watch street performers, enter competitions, and meet different walks of life. Take your Sims to the Spice Festival where they can enter the Curry Challenge and become the Spice Master. Help your Sim light fireworks with a hot date at the Romance Festival. Earn Simoleons by selling your Sims’ crafts at the Flea Market.
It’s still unsure which crafts we’ll be able to sell and will we be able to craft entirely new objects.
Flea Markets were first shown in the early designs of The Sims 4 Get Together’s Windenburg, still, they didn’t fit in with The Sims Team’s vision of Get Together Expansion Pack.
Tip: @TheSimScraper
This will be interesting. Can’t wait for future infos!
Gets better and better
I suppose it’s trying to be similar to the consignment shops from Sims 3. Well, idk how much fun it’d be. Wondering if I’d rather just stay at my sims house and sell objects they craft instead of visiting a loading screen to do it. Maybe if they add stuff you could buy like paintings, food, produce and other craftables then I could change my mind. Maybe but idk. I’m just caring more and more less about this Ep.
Considering there is not a loading screen from apartments to flea markets I don’t know what loading screens you will see. Unless you mean going from city to city.
Considering there is a loading screen from apartments to other sims apartments, that counts as one loading screen out of the few that we’ll see. Also flee markets were mentioned but it was never mentioned as to where or what they are specifically. The thought about what they are, is me wondering if it is a lot and just like any lot, it comes with a loading screen.
Flea market is in festivals highly likely, so won’t have loading screen between sims apt and festivals. 🙂
I love the idea of the flea market. I was hoping we’d get consignment shops back. It’d be nice if there were more things for our sims to craft to sell. I’d love the ability for sim to knit/crochet things. I know we’ll never get that, but it would be fun to sell at the flea market.
So will there be flea markets in every town, or is this feature just restricted to San Myshuno?
We have yet to find out 🙂
At the rate they are going, I wouldn’t be surprised to find out its restricted to San Myshuno.
Think about it this way: They can’t change any existing worlds without ruining save games. This means the festivals in other worlds would have to take place on a lot. The festivals we’ve seen all take place without the neighborhood (not on a lot)
Basically, they pretty much have to be restricted unless they create a special lot type.
Remove the market from Get Together, was a huge mistake from EA, but sims4 is getting better, city living looks really fantastic, lets see what is coming in future, i have hope for sims4 to be amazing…
Corner marketettes seem lovely to me! Although still not enough for me to buy the game, sorry sims team 🙁 I was waiting for the apartment pack after Sims 4’s mixed reviews, and I’m not impressed that we can’t build apartments. Maybe when a generations style pack comes out. 🙂
very disappointed
