LP54 Posted June 30, 2022 Posted June 30, 2022 (edited) This pack is coming with so much content. I wasn't ready Quote Good morning, students and faculty of Copperdale High! Welcome back to another adventure-filled school year. For those of you that are new to our school and town, we’re excited to have you joining our dear community! Once renowned for its booming mining industry, Copperdale is a small town nestled on the banks of Lake LaSuli where you can truly live out your teenage dreams, explore your identity, and test boundaries through choices and growth. We are so proud of our community creators and the seven lots they built in Copperdale, including MsGryphi, who built ThrifTea–the thrift store and local boba hangout, xfreezerbunnyx, who built the library, and JOL1990, who built the high school principal’s old money mansion. We’ll be giving tours of the school and town after the final bell today, and all are welcome to join. Here’s to all the memories we’ll be making together this school year. Go Copperdale Womp Womps! Carving Your Own Path in High School Copperdale High is the center of your teen Sims’ world. Inside these halls, Sims participate in everything that makes high school such a formative time in life, from building lifelong friendships, to selecting our favorite extracurricular activities and graduating into adulthood. During school hours, Sims attend class, hang out with friends, have lunch in the cafeteria, take weekly exams, and hopefully avoid being scolded by the principal who patrols the halls! After school, students can participate in activities like football, cheerleading, chess, and computer clubs, go to events like the science fair, or head home to their poster-filled bedroom to complete their homework. In terms of extracurriculars, teen Sims can join an after-school club or team like football or cheer, practice these skill related activities, participate in competitions, and experience the highs and lows of winning and losing alongside your teammates. You’ll even have the opportunity to navigate through the challenges and joys of young love, whether it’s the blissfulness of the crush stage, or the woes of a teenage breakup. A word of advice: Plumbite Pier is the perfect date spot! There is an amusement park with a haunted house, tunnel of love, a ferris wheel, and a photobooth for memories! Explore Your Teen Identity Teen years and high school are the launching points for self-discovery. Creating even more ways for Sims to explore their identities, a free base game update will go live alongside the release of High School Years, introducing an additional new feature that will add more choice and opportunity for discovery to your Sims’ lives. The free base game update will also introduce body hair. For those with the High School Years Expansion Pack, Sims will be able to groom and trim their body hair’s natural growth over time, celebrating that transition through puberty. You can learn more about the new base game updates coming to The Sims 4 on Friday, July 15, 2022 at 11am PDT on Twitch and YouTube. Express Your Creativity With Pranks and Style! What is high school without a little mischief? In High School Years, discover an all new mischievous side to your teen Sims as they pull pranks. Mark up the whiteboard, leave a stink capsule in your classmate’s locker, or mess with the school’s PA system, but don’t get caught! Successfully pranking other Sims will increase your mischief skill, but being discovered will have consequences on relationships, as well as lead to trust issues. Back at home, you can make your teen Sim’s bedroom an oasis that fully reflects their personality and style, as unique as they are. Teen Sims can hang out in the bedrooms, with Sims now able to sit crossed-legged on the bed together and have pillow fights. Need to sneak out of the house after curfew? Sims can exit the house via The E window and trellis ladder, and climb down the side of a house. Fashion is the ultimate form of self-expression, and has always been a huge part of The Sims. As part of The Sims 4 High School Years Expansion Pack, your Sim’s fashion options are growing even larger via a collaboration with Depop, the circular fashion marketplace app where the next generation comes to discover unique items. Sims can discover clothing items designed by real-world Depop sellers Jeremy Salazar, Sha’an D’Antes, Lapoze McTribouy, Selena Williams and Bella McFadden in-game at the local thrift store and boba hangout, ThrifTea, and earn Simoleons by selling outfits they curate and hype on the new in-game Trendi app and become a “Simfluencer” in the process. Take pictures of your Sims’ new outfits at the mural from artist Monica Ahanonu, displayed on the side of ThrifTea, drawing inspiration from The Sims x Depop collaboration. Star Quarterbacks, Prom Queens and Valedictorians It wouldn’t be a true high school adventure without prom and graduation. Perhaps the most nerve-wracking yet exciting night of a teen Sims’ high school years is prom. You’ll be able to customize every aspect of your Sim’s prom, beginning with prom preparation and the event itself. Sims can go solo, ask someone to the prom, go with friends, or skip out altogether. From there, players can dive into the details including creating and presenting a promposal sign, selecting outfits, having friends over to get ready, and voting for prom royalty. Players can also plan out their dance routines, music, snacks, and more. How a Sim prepares for and participates in prom will impact their relationships going forward! And then, of course, the high school experience culminates with graduation, the ceremony bookending a Sim’s time at Copperdale High. It’s a chance to celebrate with friends and family, and welcome in the next stage of life. Sims can prepare before the main event by inviting guests, deciding their outfit, and acquiring gifts for friends and teachers. All the decisions your Sim has made throughout their high school journey will impact how their graduation plays out. Sims can choose whether or not they attend, but they won’t be invited to graduate if their grades don’t meet the mark! No matter how you choose to live out your High School Years in The Sims 4, there are no wrong answers. Unless it’s a test you forgot to study for. The trailer alone with pier has got me so excited.

ConceptD Posted June 30, 2022 Posted June 30, 2022 The new world looks really good and this pack will add another dimension to teens at least, but I wish they’d added another life stage because that one teen with the beard is straight up 40 years old.

Gesamtkunstwerk Posted July 9, 2022 Posted July 9, 2022 Looks good actually, also a high school pack as been in demand for as long I can remember
Apolonio ₃₄ Posted July 10, 2022 Posted July 10, 2022 My 4th generation sim Melody grew into a teen and she’s gorgeous! I’m so surprised I didn’t have to alter her appearance. My 3rd generation (my fave generation as I tend to play with them aged off) is getting older so with the High School Years coming I turned aging back on. She’s about to be my next main legacy sim. I’m still working on her and I’m gonna add a twin brother.
Tiziano's Boy Posted July 12, 2022 Posted July 12, 2022 Decided to try something new and try a family led Meditation session led by my great-grandson David, his niece Diana (who is my great-great granddaughter), didn't want to join and I'mf*ckingfuming.gif, she said she was bored, I called her a b*tch cause she didn't want to join

HabbGaga Posted July 16, 2022 Posted July 16, 2022 the actual high school gameplay looks boring. it just works like get to work and theres been a mod for this for years now. im excited about the other features tho
ATRL Moderator Unoriginal Posted July 16, 2022 Author ATRL Moderator Posted July 16, 2022 if wants and fears are implemented well i could get really back into ts4 honestly
Stardom Posted July 17, 2022 Posted July 17, 2022 Wait not them adding wants and fears back into the game? We need memories next
Nip Tuck Posted July 17, 2022 Posted July 17, 2022 just saw a tweet complaining the calender is too cluttered now but these are the same people that say there’s nothing to do in game anyway high school looks boring as **** the trailer catfished me bad
chris1991 Posted July 17, 2022 Posted July 17, 2022 The sexuality labeling is interesting…the Sims have always been pansexual. I was making my sims date same sex since sims 2. I don’t care for the inclusion of it but I guess it makes sense to also label for people who feel like this is an important part of who they are.
chris1991 Posted July 17, 2022 Posted July 17, 2022 Also why, does the game look worse than sims 2/3. I haven’t played in years.
