Can sims visit or live in Britechester if they don't go to collage?
Like other than maybe a career boost and build items.
Also, will I be able to send a family member sim to university without having them move out? Or will the college sim have to move out and then move back when they are done if I don't want to move the entire family to the new map?
Last question. Can a sim get their degree fully online?
Can Robots be Charged like in Into The Future in Sims 3?
Any other new woohoo spots besides the shower?
Any new radio and tv stations?
Will Sims be able to dance on counters after using the Keg?
Are there any new dares specific to university parties?
What about these secret societies? Are they Sorieties and Fraternities?
Will our sims be invited to keg parties?
How will you go about enrolling for universities?
Is there an Online Dating Feature?
What is the new death type?
Any New Venue Types Coming With This Pack? Eg Working Cinema?
Is there a place to buy bikes?
Should attending university affect the starting level of the career will it effect any future careers? Or any existing careers from other EPs(ex: GTW,C&Ds)
How many empty lots does Britechester have and what are the lot sizes?
Will Britechester get snow in the Winter?
How do terms work? Is it based on what setting you have in seasons? Life length? Just a straight default number of days? They just nebulously blend together?
How does sending a kid to University impact my ability to play the rest of the family? Dorm life appears to be an option, not a requirement, so does living on campus move them out of the household (which, to be fair, I'd be okay with) or is it kinda like being on vacation? What about visits home for the weekend or holidays? How does commuting to school work? Is it effectively an "active career" where I get to choose if I follow my Uni Student for the day? Or do I more or less have to go with them, as nothing gets done when they're there alone (like nothing gets done at home when you follow an active career)?
How are holidays going to impact class? I mean, I play with two week seasons and have the bulk of summer marked as "Summer holidays" with no school or work. I'm guessing that any summer terms will be on hold, but it could basically make summer term an auto fail if there aren't enough days left to get stuff done.
How are High School and even Elementary School grades going to impact University?
How is going to university going to impact (if at all) careers we already have? There are some where University really should be required if you have the pack installed.
Is there going to be decent cross-pack impact, beyond new options for clubs? Some more formal way of using Clubs as Greek houses, maybe?
2. If you send a teen to college, will they automatically become a YA?
3. Can you send two teens/YA's to college from the same household (siblings) and send one to UoB and the other to FI, then play both by changing households and the one not being played will still be there for one sim to visit/interact with?
4. Can they both travel home together for a visit?
5. Will their parents know who they are once they have moved out to college?
6. Is DU a singular pack built around one and one sim only at a time having a college experience and therefore will not see any siblings also attending college?
Thank you for checking out this thread.
Can sims woohoo with robots?
Will we have Study Group Clubs?
Can sims swim in any bodies of water in this world? Eg Lakes,Rivers etc.
I think they show one in the trailer. It looked like they were watching the campus sport teams play on the tv.
Please show all the color and pattern themes for bikes.
Is there any new kiss types in Discover University? An older survey mentioned 2 sims can sneak off to the library and smooch.
If we can see sims in school can they pass love letters?
Do the sims in the trailer live in Brite Chester and are they playable?
So tell me more about these secret societies.
I just had to google image search “big toe piercing”, which I now regret.
I've seen women with big toe piercings.
I imagine a bar across the top below the knuckle?
But I saw a lot I wish I could unsee.. lol!
You don’t mean toenail piercing, do you?
Edit: more questions
If a sim chooses to live in a dorm while studying with a roommate, will they actually be an NPC roommate or a “roommate” that we controlled as well like in CL.
Will Sims from that world age or travel to other worlds?
Can I invite a sim from that world over to my world?
What new recipes are included?
Will we be able to add a specific alma meter as a club requirement(GT)?
