The Sims 3 lols

The Sims 1942 would be a whole lot more interesting :/
 
Yes, because your male sims would reach adulthood and join the army and your women would be working in the factory all day for the war effort.

Features include nightime electrical lockdowns, building bomb shelters, raising your kids only for them to be sent off to the countryside and such leisurely activities as rounding up the local Japanese, Italian and German ethnic groups into internment camps.

I'm so going to make Hitler the father of Anne Frank!
 
Apparently there's an unlockable in the new expansion where in the producer of the Sims 3 drops by and gives you a PC game that has some footage of the new game. Here's the youtube of it. Could be bullshit, but looks genuine to me. If I unlock the unlockable anytime soon I'll try and confirm:-

Seems to tie in with what little has been seen, and I'd say the characters look a lot more advanced that those in Sims 3. Separate clothing items rather than skins seems to be one thing for sure. With free time they introduced proper 3D jewelry, so it's not a great leap of imagination to assume we'll be seeing a lot more of that sort of thing. One thing I'd like to see is a degree of height adjustment for Sims. I realize that probably makes animations a pain, but it would add to the look of the game considerably.
 
Pff, Raz, you take the game too seriously. :p

I love Simlish. If they spoke English, it would get soooo repetitive. :/

Not if they had as much voice variation and phrases as they do variation of all other things in the game. Heh.
 
I wish sims spoke intelligible English.

I *HATE simlish and it separates me from caring for my characters at all.




Sweet. I backed them up just in case. :E

You don't see the genius in simlish?

1) Less development costs. They don't need to write one script for each language they do, they just have one jibberish script and they bring in a few people and in a few days it's all done.

2) Part of the same, but you also don't have to add subtitles for the deaf gamers out there, because it's simlish, so why does it matter?

3) The beauty is that you decide the words which they are saying. They give hints as to what they might be saying by their animation and tone, but it's you who puts it together to decipher the action. Subtle, but adds a nice touch.

Just imagine if they were like "I'm hungry!" every few mins, or you heard the same english lines over and over and over... Since it's simlish and they vary it up every now and then you don't get as pissed off as knowing what they're saying every 5 mins.

Oh, and I got my GFW mag today. Anyone care for details? You have PCGUK scans above so it really doesn't matter though.
 
I understand why it's there. I just don't like it. :-P


And trust me... I know it'd be hellishly expensive and take up a lot of disk space, but I could create an extensive list of phrases to be used to indicate the need to eat, so much so that none of it would get boring and repetitive to you. LOL
 
The only thing I ask of the Sims3 is that when the Bladder meter maxs out, there's the random possibility the Sim will shite him/herself rather than wiz on the floor. You know, have green fumes emanating from his/her buttocks. Also, a more advanced A.I. that's smart enough to acknowledge the fact the Sim shitted him/herself and makes fun of them for it rather than just saying, "Pheew!" while plugging their noses. Therefore ruining any possible chance for that Sim to have a decent social life if such a social structure is in place in this new title that is.

I'm so devilishly mean to my Sims aren't I? :cheese:
 
One thing I would like to see(and it's already been mentioned in this thread), is the ability for sims to physically beat up one another. To get into serious fights that could be fatal.

It would add such a whole new dimension to the world... Where teens can beat each other up... and if like a home owner gets in a fight with a burglar, it could prove fatal for one, the other or both if it gets a chance to escalate far enough or if they're in a place that facilitates such an event, like the kitchen with knives.

Also, domestic violence. Physical child abuse and Spousal abuse.

I think it'd be awesome if my sim could see this one sim guy totally wailing on his wife... and my sim comes to the rescue and beats the shit out of the male sim, and like some sort of drama movie my sim and the chick hook up after their plot to kill the abusive boyfriend/husband goes through.


That sort of content would be so interesting.
 
What I want to see is not endless repetition of the same animations. Slight differences when doing said animations would be nice.

With the freetime I've noticed the Sims have a few more idle animations now as a resultant of thinking about hobbies etc. Have to say I like some of the new features in Freetime, esp the secondary personality options.
 
I don't have the latest expansion packs. I stopped after Seasons - my computer couldn't handle the sheer amount of crap anymore.
 
UK PCGamer is out today and has about 6 pages on Sims 3, sounds like they've got some cool stuff going on in it.
 
I gotta say, I really admire how they're basically overhauling everything. And I say that as somebody who still immensely enjoyed The Sims 2 despite how little it all changed. I can't wait.
 
i've never played sims. never even tried. hell, i've never been in the same room with a computer that has sims installed.

does that somehow define me as a person? does it say something about my personality? am i a bad person?
 
Matt is rude, a daredevil, and shy. His neighbour Chad is grumpy, grugal, insensitive and inappropriate. When Matt goes over to his neighbour's house to chat, Chad turns away. Then he pisses himself. And laughs.

I lol'd. I need this game.

Yes. Yes. Yes.

Oh me too ;(

It's real. Not too sure what happened ingame to trigger it, but this dude turned up at my Sims Greek house and dropped off a new PC with Sims 3 installed on it with the footage. :)
 
Oh, Shit yes.

I can't say the graphics have improved staggeringly but any more and they'd fall into Uncanny Valley territory, but the create-a-sim options look powerful.
 
This game actually looks like fun,















to throw in the bin.
 
In all seriousness why bother posting in the thread if your not into the game style overall? I mean trust me I don't lie awake at night thinking 'I wonder what Naps opinion on X is?' and I doubt anyone else with an interest in The Sims 3 would either.

But then how would his E-penii grow? *looks at post count* Shit.

I think this game is looking like it will shape up to be rather entertaining, though I can't really open up the screenshots yet :(

True but it's just lame to post about a game your not into. I'm not into sports games, but I don't bother posting to run em down.

Try here it's a little less traffic intense than the main site:-

I'm just wondering how they are going to incorporate the aging aspect if there's potentially no downtime. Still I'm interested to see the overall direction they are going in. The personality stuff sounds pretty good, and that they are getting away from the showering/shitting routine is long overdue.
 
Nice lighting etc but I don't like the look of the sims themselves. They look a bit weird.
 
I'll be buying it. I genuinely enjoy Sims games. I refuse to ever buy any expansions for them though.
 
Am I the only one that thinks the Sims3 should have more random and realistic "bladder" accidents such as diarreah to completely and utterly destroy any chance of that Sim to ever get a date or any friends? :LOL:

Or am a just a sadistic freak that enjoys the misfortunes of Sims everywhere ? :|

Graphically, the Sims2 was pretty amazing and detailed enough, but I guess I'd be wrong to say it couldn't get much better, ammirite?
 
lol, one time me and my brother made a house of crack-heads, they were all wierd looking and dirty and everything, they had one bed, with chairs around it, the parents would be ****ing while the 3 kids just sat there and watched, they had a stove and couch on the lawn, it was hilarious.

Then one day I made a serious character, little did we know that the cracks (that was their last name - the cracks) actually stayed in the neighborhood (we thought we'd deleted them), so here comes the dad with an afro, undershirt, and jeans on (he was a white guy), walking down the street, then he goes and LOOKS IN MY GARBAGE CAN. I nearly died laughing, I even got it on video!

A virtual crack-head went through my virtual garbage can! They're everywhere!
