DINE OUT RELEASE TRAILER

Dine Out Gameplay Features

• Restaurants are the main feature of the Dine Out game pack (it's not a full-blown expansion but definitely offers value). Sims are of course able to visit restaurants in town and order food, but it's more interesting to own them from a gameplay standpoint. Thankfully, we can do both. The pack ships with several pre-built restaurants, and the gallery will undoubtedly populate with great creations from Simmers around the world. Pre-built restaurants your Sim can visit for a date, as part of a club with Get Together or for family night.
• Own and Run Restaurants - The Sims 4 Dine Out will allow us to own and run restaurants. The whole system is fleshed out, giving us control over every aspect whether we have Sims present or not. That's right, we can schedule them to open at any time no matter where we are, and this results in being able to run a chain of restaurants and amass great wealth. You can own a small diner, a five-star restaurant that serves expensive food or both!
• Fully Customizable Restaurants - the layout is up to you, you're required only to place a few stations. The decor, lighting, mood and floor plan are all fully customizable just as with building a house. Of course, you'll be able to share your creations through the gallery.
• Manage Staff - Three new positions exist aside from you (manager) - host, waiter, and chef. Obviously your host will greet an seat guests, while the waiters take orders and clean up. Chefs will cook food for the guests, and all three of these positions have required skills to make them better at their jobs. Training employees will improve their ability to please your customers. They will, of course, develop skills naturally over time, but you can fork over cash to help them improve faster.
• Please your Guests - Your service, the menu, pricing, it all factors into how your guests will view your restaurant. You can rank from 1 to 5 stars, and higher ranking establishments will see more guests arrive at any time of day. Of course, there are hours they are more likely to visit!
• Customize Menu - Select from hundreds (literally) of drinks, appetizers, desserts, and main courses to define your restaurant's menu. You're not restricted and can choose your own style, along with the amount of profit you expect from each meal through a markup.
• Customize Staff Uniforms - it's not yet clear if we can select the uniforms exactly, but Sims in the trailer use anything from flair vest to classy uniforms when serving food.
• Choose Restaurant Perks - with success come perk points, which you can use to give boosts to the restaurant - both temporary and permanent. They range from adding extra waiters to making customers tip you or reducing ingredient costs.
• Fine-dining Themed Objects - The trailer features some objects that are new, and it's obvious we can probably design restaurants from simple diners, to expensive fine-dining establishments. This is an exciting development for people who use the gallery, as I'm sure some amazing themed restaurants will pop up.
