SimGuruFrost has revealed a new Community Survey for The Sims 4.
The survey takes around seven minutes to complete and has eleven questions in total.
Some of the questions in the survey look at how satisfied players are with the December Update, players interests in various relationship, gameplay, snow activities and more. There are also a handful of questions that look at which Expansion or Game Pack players would like to see a bit of extra polish and what kinds of improvements players would like to see when it comes to creating Sims that we want.
Of course, don’t forget about the popularity contest towards the end of the survey featuring some familiar names and some we haven’t seen for a while, as well as a question asking us which brands players would love to see The Sims collaborate with in the future.
This is one of the most in-depth Community Surveys we have had which covers a variety of different topics.
The survey won’t be live for long so make sure you take a look at it and let The Sims team know what you think!

Have you taken the recent Community Survey? Let us know what you thought below in the comments!
this was great and I am still having problems with giving a toddler a bath.
Survey taken 🙂 No matter what I love Sims4, keeps my 57 year old self occupied lol I love making stories, so whatever the team comes up with, I’m good!
All these hiking/mountain climbing/snow activities are making me hope for a winter season and new features added to Granite Falls! Or an entirely new holiday world. With snow and mountains!
I love this initiative, I’m really looking forward to seeing what they do with our feedback!!
This makes me have faith the Sims 4 again!
hi sims team
i’m having this super annoying bug where the thumbnails in cas are half green! i can barely see what i’m clicking to put on my sims and it only has the green thing on purchased packs like cats and dogs, seasons etc. all the packs i have i can’t enjoy coz i cant see what they are and it’s incredibly annoying 🙂
You should file this complaint on the official forums for bugs. If you’re using any sort of mod or custom content remove them, delete the local thumb cache file in the sims 4 folder and see if that helps. I personally haven’t experienced this bug.
I had something similar and it was actually an issue with a mod. One time is was UI extensions that was outdated and another it was a mod that changed the wrench icon on my CC. I hope this helps 🙂
I really liked this survey. And hopefully they do put in some of those relationship ideas and activities. A new vacation world that’s winter year round would be nice and to be able to control hotels or lodges too.
I never saw it 🙁
was it emailed? I just took it through the link above 🙂
you would have gotten it through your game
Will this update go.to all gaming consoles such as the ps4?
Community Survey is awsome idea! I would deffently love to have more custimization back like in sims 3 with textures and prints for furniture and clothes extra. Vacation locations like Disney world, paris, grand canyons as well as activities ur people can do while there. Go further into detail with your sims ageing. exsample hitting puberty and mood swings. give us options for our teens like studdy hard or skip class, get detention for a fight, receive awords for things like good grades, no school was missed. Give us a report card !!! allow us to choose chorses to take with in school. pass notes back and forth in class. Give us more parenting options like grounding for poor grades or staying out to late. allow us more comforting parent skills. child has a night mare we comfort them.. our children allow them to build a fort, ride bikes, scavenger hunts climb trees… give parents more interaction things to do together, go skinny dip while kids are asleep. cuddle while watching a movie. Give us mor home activities to do lots more family activities
Hi there,
There have been some great updates on the sims and wonderful new additions; however, I feel that the game is missing some core components that give the game that real life feel. Examples include :
– shopping for groceries and new clothing (like the sims 2)
– having the option of private school/ boarding school and inviting the headmaster over for tea (again, like sims 2)
-memories
– having the special events in the sims life such as prom, after school activities etc
Without these I feel that the game can become boring and doesn’t really feel as life like. I miss that side of the sims.
I think I speak for most of us when I say I would really just like the Sims 4 to, idk, actually make a pack that’s worth the ridiculous amount we spend on it? That actually works? That actually caters to what we, the consumers, want? Or knitting. Knitting works too.
Sorry, this was a bit aggressive. Most of us just want to see a more open world, more interesting packs, and the disabilities that we’ve been told are coming, but have never seen any real progress in. It’s just frustrating to get our hopes up every time a new pack comes out, only to be disappointed after buying it and realizing that it has no where near as many features as it claimed.
they really need to make sims 5 just so that we can get all of the new systems with the sims 4 meshed with OPEN WORLD, the memories system from sims 2, wishes system from the sims 3, and the fears from the sims 2. Whims could be kept (similar to wants from TS2) but then also have more long term “wishes” like the sims 3, with a similar awesome reward system. They also need to bring back cutscenes!
TS4 really introduced some amazing things, it’s a pity some of the previous successes were abandoned in the process
Memories system from The Sims 2 would be excellent. How could I forget it? No pun intended. Lol. It kept track of everything and those involved without the bloating of screenshots, which could be reserved more for the story telling feature.
I loved how it basically filled in the gaps in order of events with mini blurbs, and brought the history in Maxis-premade families to life. You weren’t forced to pause and take screenshots, then write descriptions for every major milestone. Otherwise forget it. It felt just as important as the family tree feature.
Werewolves!! God I’m bummed I didn’t get to take part in the survey. It seems like new life states are missing one major aspect, and it’s the entirety of vampires preceding werewolves in past games. There are so many things that could flesh them out better than than Sims 3 had. Fans in the forums have already voiced enough content ideas to make them less silly, and more interesting.
Other than supernaturals, it would be great to see more island living. Social features, beach weddings and tribal relations, exotic cooking, bartering and foraging systems… I’m reminiscing over The Sims Castaway for PC a bit I suppose. I loved the immersion into distant rural, and sociable communities. It gave the gameplay a big refreshment.
Tbh I just want eyelashes and more things for toddlers and kids they don’t get a good range of things and toddlers and kids really impact the game and it can get a bit boring if there’s nothing to do with them ☺️
