Actually Lynet, I dont know about OFB and NL because all I have is University and Family Fun Stuff, but in Family Fun Stuff, you can choose what your sim is attracted to. They can be attracted to brown hair, fitness, glasses, etc. Likewise they can be turned of by things.
That came out with nightlife, and yes, they are attracted to sims by those things, which is why they are turn ons and turn offs, but they don't hate someone or like them as a friend because of it. That just steers their attraction. Sims are still color blind when it comes to friendships.
Oooh. I didn't know that attractions were added by FFS! Did anyone else know that? At least that partly explains why it installed as an expansion pack rather than as a "stuff" pack.
This is just an idea, but I think that christenings would be cool. You could have a christening party and stuff, and it would show up in the person's memories. I don't actually know much about christening, but perhaps it could be like the Birthday Cake and the Wedding Arch, the parent clicks on the... water-holder, and follows the prompts, and the baby or toddler is taken up to the water-holder and christened, a bit like the Birthday Cake. Maybe Maxis could squeeze it in somewhere. Just an idea. P.S. I think that a disabilities EP would be great
Speaking of lifetime events, I'd like to see funerals. You know, you could "throw party/funeral" after someone died, everyone turns up in black and either cries or acts happy depending on how they felt about the deceased. What would be really cool is if it were the dead persons friends and foes, so rather than having to invite them they'd just come. You know, throw party/funeral, sit back and wait for them to show up. Imagine the slapfests at a romance sim's funeral.
:bandit: :shocked: :knockedout: I would make one about pets.It is sorta like how you make stuff on spore,except you can't go to crazy when creating animals.Like you could create a care bear.And you could also on how they act, like we do when we are creating sims.And you could make farms.And make a butch of different farm animals with the create a pet thing in that exoansion.They could sell bacon, chicken, milk, etc.
LMAO, SBW. You're right. I've missed being able to hold funerals. The only coffins available now have flames shooting up next to them. (Hmmm, wonder if you could hide those with moveObjects and big bunches of flowers. I'll have to look into that. Or maybe someone over at MTS2 has removed the flames...)
I'd invent the "The Sims 2 - Naughty Desires" expansion pack, simply because I think an adult expansion would be hilarious, and more interesting in the extreme. I won't go into details over this one.
It would never fly... no way they could retain the ersb rating besides those sims can be as naughty as you want right now.
I dunno about that besides the fact that Maxis would never do it... Besides, remember that game that was all over the net when the Sims 2 was being developed that was more realistic than the sims, but mature for all the sexual nature and stuff? What ever happened to that game? Oh well, no I don't think any such game's gonna happen. I want a game that follows sims to work and to school. Imagine, getting promotions and walking to the boss' office, afraid of what is going to happen... How cool, also think about actually having interviews for jobs instead of just automatically getting them. How cool would that be? And there could be parking lots where low-level sims have to park in the toolies and the exec. or whatever would have a spot next to the door? How cool would that be. And just think about all the trouble you could get Rosa Sim Junior into for smoking in the bathroom or Tommy Sim for skipping Simlish class. I also would like to see pets come back... But they shouldn't count towards the eight family members... They should be extra, and all the farming like "Unleashed" had would be pretty sweet too. I'd also like to see the weather that they said they couldn't get to work that we were promised. It can't be that hard to get to work right... I want sims to be able to go to college when they're older too to get more education... How cool would it be for Granny Sim to go and be a drama major and live wildly at college? The college kids should also be able to live at home like in real life... That would be awesome! There should be more to do with Miss Crumplebottom like there was in TS1 also and I think that it would be cool though if we could go to work and school with Sims... Rather than just sitting at home when they go to work! Whatdya think?:bigthumbsup: or ?
Believe me, kid, the idea seems a lot less cool after you've done for real :( PS Well hey! I just noticed! ... you're another Minnesotan! Do you know SBW?
Yes, because I know EVERYONE in Minnesota. It would be fun to go to work or school with our sims but I can see why we can't. That would require about twice the programming the game currently has. And it could get repetitive. I think OFB and Uni have that covered, anyway. You get a taste of it that way.
how about "Sims in Space"... no wait a minute... that's where spore comes in. I would like to see a really good tools type package that would allow you to design furniture etc. and apply social interactions. current or future. they could call Sims2Building Blocks or something corny like that. example there's a great looking bench with pillows on it to put at the end of a bed, but when the sim sits on it, they sit on it like its couch but come up through the wood and pillows instead of sitting on the pillows. very disappointing.
