The Sims 3 Hands-On Events: Post your questions here! - Page 4

Lara4484 · 14-03-2009, 08:19 AM

Welcome to the forum Pamela and amazing job with your post and your list of questions!!!

bubsquik · 14-03-2009, 11:01 AM

Open Neigbourhood:

Can neighbours just walk into yuor house/garden like they sometimes did in TS2?
Are there rabbit holes in every building - even teh supermarket?
Is it true that if your sims eats too much they become over weight and vice versa?
Will there be new neighbourhoods and if so how will we be able to connect them?

Traits:

Are sims attracted to other sims with the same traits or do opposits attract?
How many traits are there officially? I have heard 65, 70, 75 etc
Is it ok just to choose 1 trait and then almost 'collect' them during the game?

ilovearsenal · 14-03-2009, 11:34 AM

Create a sim.

Can we have piercings such as belly button, nose, mouth piercings and tattoos. If so can we have them on our teens?

ConnorJackT · 14-03-2009, 12:51 PM

I run a fansite, but it'll only be when pigs fly, that i'll get a chance.

jonny442159 · 14-03-2009, 01:29 PM

Have the Fansite Owners been selected yet?

www.thesims3newscenter.co.nr

Could you also possibly tell me where this is taking place?

Talia05 · 14-03-2009, 01:49 PM

I think they will have already been selected since the first event takes place in a few days now

I could be totally wrong though

hannahmon · 14-03-2009, 02:37 PM

My question sort of ties in to this one.

Will there be any way to set the Age for our playable Sim to the longest life-span, but leave the rest of the neighborhood at the normal life-span? (Essentially creating an "immortal" Sim who can watch the 'hood change around him/her.)

Dominochick3 · 14-03-2009, 03:27 PM

What is the full list of jobs available?

What jobs will make you famous? What activities come with being famous?
Can sims become celebs in other things? e.g super models
Is there a day care? If so what is it like? What can you do here?
Will normal sims in the neighbourhood be baby sitters?
Will sim days be longer, so that we have more time to fit things in?
What desserts are there that sims can make?
What extra stuff have u noticed about the game?

bellamariangela · 14-03-2009, 04:37 PM

Your baby is beautiful Lara!!!

As you can imagine there are a large number of fansites for The Sims Series and places for these events are very limited. At this point there are a select group of community members and fansite owners that have been asked to join us for the afternoons. I'm not sure that I have seen your site before, Jonny so thanks for posting the link

In answer to where they are taking place there is one this week in London and the following week in Manchester.

Thanks for all the questions so far ladies and gentlemen. Please do keep them coming

angelfrouk · 14-03-2009, 06:22 PM

Open neighbourhood:
*When will we be able to create our own neighbourhoods for our own sims?
*How many playable sims will there be in Sunset Valley?
*Why did we get info that there won't be any aliens in TS3?

Design and Customisation:
*As for now, ceilings aren't recolourable. Is there a way around that? Or will we have recolourable ceilings later on?
*Is it possible to import our own textures into the game relatively easy?
*Will it be possible to build splitlevel/multilevel homes without any cheats?

Talia05 · 14-03-2009, 08:01 PM

Do children and teenagers still get homework everyday? :S
Can parents ring up school to let their children take a sick day like adults can take a sick day off work?

dmckenzie · 14-03-2009, 08:01 PM

I would like to ask a few questions on behalf of Sim City Times my blog about Sims 3 news and features.
Thank you in advance for your time and help!

1. Are you planning to release a Body Shop or a stand alone Create-a-Sim demonstration before the game is out?

2. Can you tell us on what speed will the time progress in the game in normal game mode?

3. Is the list of personality traits still under development, or can you share the full list with us?

4. Recently I have read Evil Sims in the game will have contextual interactions like "troll forums", can you confirm that? Will other traits have similar typical interactions?

5. In your last trailer about the Sims 3 AI we saw Liam and his notebook appear in different places, will there be many mobile objects in the game that sims can carry around with them?

6. Could you share some more info about the skill system in the Sims 3? Will it be very different than in previous Sims versions?

7. Will NPC's like Santa or the Easter Bunny appear at certain times in the game?

Thanks for the info,
dmckenzie

Thank you

sharkloverplayer · 15-03-2009, 05:34 AM

Hi again.I read that there are some celebrity sims and sims of the sims 3 team in cas you can pick from random sims.Is this true?

Sims
Also I read you could time certain things that sims do like sleeping you can make them sleep as long as you want to or as short as you want to.What other things can you time?

Interactions
Can you change the sims voice without having to go in CAS?Example you want to change your sims voice from friendly to flirty is it in the interaction que?

When two sims become best friends do the romantic interactions become available in the interaction thing like in the sims 2?

Is it true that it is now harder for a sim to steal anothers spouse away from him or her?

Buy mode
Will we get the big screen tv that was in apartment life?Also will we get the following?

Hot dog stands
Vending Machines
Murphy Bed
Walkin Closets
Water Beds I haven't seen a waterbed in any sims ep
The Spin The Bottle Game from the sims 2 ps2 version that lets sims kiss each other.
The Bear Rug that was in the sims 1 and sims bustin out that made sims make out.

Neighborhoods
When we get new neighborhoods how will this work?Will sims be able to go seamlessly from Sunset Valley to say Plesenview or will you have to load the neighborhood sepreatly like you do with the sims 2?

Will there be a console version for the ps3,360 and wii and will that game have seemless neighborhoods as well?

Is it true you will open up some rabbitholes in expansion packs?

Will Don Lathardo and Nina and Dina Caleneti be in the sims 3 base game?

CAS
Can you give me more info on lip glosses.I read that their in the game.Can you put them over lipstick and also can you use them without lipstick?How shiney are they.I like lipglosses on my females that really shine.

Rappunen · 15-03-2009, 01:11 PM

Will we be able to pick the game language?

Can male sims still get pregnant and if they can, how? (I want to recreate a Curious-kind of family...

)

What happens if you sim is Clumsy, Daredevil, Unlucky, Absent-Minded and Excitable?

What kinds of voices are there available in the CAS?

How much can you tweak the facial features in CAS? (Can you make, say, huuuuge alien eyes and a tiny nose?)

I second the question about mobile items!

Will sims react to each others' cars?

Can your criminal sims go to jail?

What happens if you sim is Clumsy, Daredevil, Unlucky, Absent-Minded and Excitable? Don't know, havn't played the game yet.

What kinds of voices are there available in the CAS? Not sure, but I believe there are 5 different M and F voices.

How much can you tweak the facial features in CAS? (Can you make, say, huuuuge alien eyes and a tiny nose?) Yes, quite expansive on the facial area of things, however doesnt look like you can tweak bit of body, i.e. like adding my wifes HUUUUGE breasts! lol

I second the question about mobile items!

Will sims react to each others' cars? How do you mean? As in envious of a sim in an ace car?

Can your criminal sims go to jail?

I'm not sure, I think there has been a thread about this, would be good to get banged up if you were bad!

sibi4 · 15-03-2009, 02:10 PM

(Heading Not sure)
*How many cars are there in the base game?
*Can we give metallic effects?
*Can sims drop another sim at work or community lot?
*Can we ask lifts(traveling)?
