New TS4 Info from Graham Nardone and Grant Rodiek!

(Info compilation from SimNation Blog…I edited some of it for clarity)

Sims

• Sims in your social group who you are having conversations with have a white PlumbBob:

Tutorial

• The game tutorial is done with Sims that you create.

Objects

• Sims cannot purchase different cell phones.

Wishes, Whims, Moodlets and Moods

• Wishes have been replaced with Whims, the main difference being that Whims appear like thought bubbles and will persist until you satisfy them or when you click it off to get a new one.
• Moodlets are back and each one contributes to emotions. For example, if a low mood causes a Sim to get a certain moodlet, that moodlet will put them in an uncomfortable emotion.

Money

• All Sims in a household will have a “shared wallet”, like previous Sims games.

Camera

• There will not be a auto-moving camera to allow you to just watch the Sims go about their lives, however there is a function to lock your camera on an NPC.
• All of the features from cameraman mode are back - FOV, rotation, pre-set camera positions, etc.

Censorship

• The censor for when Sims are nude will still be in game.

Sims

• No celebrities in the base game, however many are likely to be uploaded to The Gallery.
• The postman NPC will be an adult.

Outfits

• You can change between multiple outfits at any time, or take your Sim back into CAS to plan new outfits. You can access CAS anytime to change clothes, make-up etc.

Skills

• Skill levels go from 0 to 10 just like in previous Sims games. Children’s skills also go from 0 to 10. There will still be skill bars.
• Children have different skills than adults.
