To be clear the features listed below are not rumors. Everything below has been confirmed with sources linked below or mentioned somewhere in this thread.
ABOUT: This is a list of features that were COMPLETELY CUT, REDUCED, or TWEAKED for the worst from previous base versions within The Sims series. It DOESN'T include missing expansion pack features that should be base by now (i.e. Weather) or new features promised for Sims 4, but later cut such as Colors Impacting Emotions and Woohoo Skills.
FUTURE PROBABILITY: ABSOLUTELY NONE of these features mentioned below have been suggested as coming to Sims 4 at a later point. In fact, a few have been called out as impossible. For example, it is INCORRECT to assume Toddlers will make it back with EP. There is no promise or suggestion or even slightest hint that says that will happen.
UPDATES: Please post any additions along with a source. I will not make changes without sources directly from EA, SimGuru's, YibSims, or screenshots/videos. Corrections are welcome, but to be clear your opinion alone on why a feature is listed is generally
not a correction.
SOURCES: Sources are indicated below with the
blue (x). We are in the process of going back and linking directly to the source. If you happen to see a black (x) and know the source please reply. We are adding the sources retroactively. It shouldn't happen but if by mistake the source doesn't mention the cut, let us know and we will locate the correct source.
COVERAGE: Well we were obviously on
Reddit on Saturday during the forum lockdown! We have received mentions on
Honeywells blog and
Kunabee's Blog! And we have been discussed on all types of forums:
GameFAQs,

the minutiae of differences in each feature along some scale because the easiest way to try and understand something new is to compare and contrast it to what came before.Graham,
Every series from Mario to Grand Theft Auto typically will cut a feature or two from one installment to the other. That said, I don't believe we,
as in most of the people you want to sell this game to, consider these a "minutiae" of differences...

CONTESTED FACTS (responses vary):

No MAC version - Answer changed from "after PC release" to "no comment" which has 100% of the time ultimately meant "no".
But don't worry you can "emotionally" breastfeed (although only while standing and by clicking on a crib?) and they have rocket ships to off screen. Yep, that's the trade off
Btw, since a picture is worth a thousand words... I proudly present The Sims 4 World Map! Yep, its that small!
To be clear: This is NOT a single "neighborhood" below, in fact it is showing ALL 6 "neighborhoods" in 1 "world"!!!
