EdenStyle – The Sims 3 Ambitions preview (part 1) Italian fansite EdenStyle had the chance to check out The Sims 3 Ambitions as EA and Grant Rodiek stopped by the offices of EA Italy.* They’ve published part 1 of their report (and yet, still no pictures ) Traits The new traits are the followings: born salesman, dramatic, eccentric, eco-friendly, perceptive and savvy sculptor. Born salesmen can sell their items for a better price. Dramatic Sims react in a exaggerate way to everyday events. Eccentrics are good inventors. Perceptive Sims are perfect for Investigator career. Savvy sculptors have a natural talent for sculpting skill. Eco-friendly Sims care about the environment and don’t want to waste water. They prefer to use the bicycle and they dry the clothes with the clothesline and not the electric dryer. I really appreciate this attention for ecology, it’s a great idea in order to make players more sensible to this issue. Tattoos Tattoos can be done both in CAS and inside the game, with the tattoo station. Sims can make tattoos to others or to themselves. Tattoos system is really well done and you can make tattoos everywhere. The game gives us tons of pics that we can recolor or resize. Thanks to layers, we can combine different pics and create our own tattoos, that can also be saved for the future. If you don’t want your skin to be painted anymore, you can remove the tattoo. Children and teens cannot be tattooed. Grant said that they discussed about it at the beginning, but then they decided to cut it. Laundry system In The Sims 3 Ambitions you can now use the washing machine. Players asked for that for many years, and this is another proof of the fact that EA listens to us. How the laundry system work? Our Sims will start to leave dirty clothes on the floor, that can be washed with the washing machine and then dried on the clothesline or with the dryer. Wearing clean clothes gives our Sims positive moodlets, increasing lifetime happiness. Do you hate washing clothes in real life and you don’t like the idea to do it also The Sims 3? No problem, you don’t have to use the laundry system if you don’t want to! Sims leave dirty clothes around the house only if you have a washing machine in it. This is a great design solution, since it lets the player to decide if he wants to use this feature or not. catch the full scoop of Part 1 here
