Ooh, I'm glad you put in the 'It's Sausage Time' poster - love it! Thank you
What a treat to pop in here this evening and have two updates, one from brainybee and one from Ember. Fab additions to the tales! I don't want the stories to end.
"After 55 days of playing each of my 4 starting households (+ the kids households as they move out), they are all exactly the same.
-They all have 7 children (I only try for baby when they have a whim for it).
-They all have all instruments, gym equipment, pools, fruit and vegetable garden, easels, that darn ugly giant telescope and ditto microscope. Those things are only bought when someone has a whim for it, but they all do, and fast (3 to 5 days played max).
-All kids want to do their homework every day, and 80% want to do extra credit as well.
-When inspired, they all want to cook, grow plants, play music and paint, but never write books unless I made them an author or they are a chef who gets the ability to write a cookbook - then they want to write one once. Mostly they want to paint, followed by buying instruments, and playing music.
-They all want to play chess, play videogames and program, but only 3 of the 4 families have wanted a workbench, and only 2 of them have wanted to use it (once each). One family uses their telescope and microscope frequently, the others just want to buy new ones, but never want to use them.
-Each household has 1 sim that everyone wants to socialize with (and it is never an outgoing sim).
-Family sims all start their day wanting to buy a toy, whether they have kids or not is not important. Other than that the only way that trait shows is that they usually get sad and are missing relatives right after leaving for work, even if they spent the morning taking care of the baby (oops, forgot. That is an object and not a relative) or have done nothing but socializing with their kids. I use to like the family trait, but it seems to only be a negative trait in sims4 - they have a hard time getting promoted since they spend their workdays being sad. When they get home, they couldn't care less about their kids unless I direct them to because of the kids' whims.
-All kids have finished 2-3 childhood aspirations by the time they grow into teens, just by following whims.
-No matter which traits they have, they all are upset about not living in a luxury home and want a pool.
-Loners want to socialize just as much as everyone else. And everyone wants to meet new people constantly.
- All sims no matter what traits spend most of their time either inspired or focused. At least the active sims start their day wanting to go for a jog, but after work/school they are like everyone else. "
My fear is that they will read this thread and their take away will be: "See?! You can tell any story that you'd like to tell!"
Funny you should say that, I love your avi and wouldn't mind him in my game!
Haha, isn't he dreamy? I think (correct me if I'm wrong @nanashi-sims) that he's actually a premade but I can't remember his name. I fell in love with him when I saw that avi
Part erm Something 6 maybe? Not really an experiment again this one- just another day in the life of Mr. Sausages.
The Early Adopters
"He's here, he's here" said a pink skinned lady who could hardly contain her excitement
Mr. Sausages grabbed a microphone, and addressed the large crowd that was already gathering around the front of his anger camp....
"What an eager bunch you are" he rasped, "It's lucky for you that I noticed you all queuing up early to buy tickets for the new episode,
Well I have decided to give you all a special sneak preview of what's in store"
"So would you like to get a little closer to the action? Would you like to see some of the fun you will be having?"
"Yes! Yes Yeeeees!" screamed one of the ladies in delight, "We love you Mr. Sausages"
Mr. Sausages lead them into a special corridor at the side of his anger camp. Everyone was buzzing with excitement.
"All the fun is behind this door", said Mr. Sausages, "Just step though and you won't be disappointed"
One by one they eagerly ran through the door...
Mr. Sausages had a little bit of a problem with the last one, the screams of the others alerted him that all was not right.
"You know the fun bit about this" said Mr. Sausages, "Is that all the liquid from this pool has been pumped straight from my toilet over there, and I've been eating a lot of frank n' beans recently, so you might notice there is a slight ripeness to the water"
"You'll be pleased to know that all you muppets, funded this whole thing with your T-Shirt money and advanced ticket sales, I hope you aren't disappointed" said Mr. Sausages as he walked through the door.
Mr. Sausages wanted to make sure they were all happy and secure, and so pushed his new CC Car that he found from a lovely modding site into position. As a further precaution, he piled a few wardrobes and other objects to keep things nice and snug.
Thinking they might get cold, Mr Sausages thoughtfully lit a fire.
Then off he ran to the front of the lot.
He was hungry for 3 day old hamburgers, after all - that toilet wasn't going to fill itself.
"Here we go again" Mr Reaper said forlornly. He was really starting to loath his job.
The oddest thing about doing that was, when two of them were left at the end after a mass drowning- both of them were flirty. So if anyone was feeling sorry for them, remember they must have been horrible sims. If anything, Mr. Sausages was a hero for ridding my game of those twisted people.
Who doesn't love a good mass drowning! LOL. I do love the expression on Mr. Sausages face as he eats that burger.
You have a delightful sense of humor and a unique talent to highlight something wrong with the game while still keeping your humor about it.
oh, sylvia, the many faces of you!
sylvia is an adorably insane sim who likes to hate children and clean things, interrupting these activities occassionally to
rail at the world, check her armpits for alien listening devices or play with her dinglehopper (and she's always pulling faces!)

I know nuthin' frisks my bacon like a good, old fashioned murder scene...

LOL! Yeah, his name is Johnson Ready and he's the cutie in the first PV and one of the earliest sims demo'd. You can find him in the gallery (SimGuruZephyr) but he's corrupted unfortunately. Whenever he goes to take a shower he becomes bald and starts wearing black dress shoes and nothing else. This was the tipping point that made me uninstall my game in December.
The shower issue might have been fixed after the December patch, but it was so heartbreaking seeing this that I don't plan on using any Maxis premades again. He's a bit too scrawny in his original form, but buff him up a little and he's a total babe. His default personality makes him a non-committal childish bro.
You did an excellent job of showing off the flawed systems this game has OP.
I really hope the devs keep inproving the game. I want to be able to forget the game, and in 2 years come to see how it's going and it's base systems are very improved, and buy all DLC because the game has really gotten better. It might take time, but they need to keep improving and fixing the base. While they don't I happily play other games and don't buy the DLCs that will come.
Do you guys think they will do something about it or just leave it like that?

They've already said more than once that they're looking into it, I'm sure they're aware of the issues since they had to have programmed the way they respond (or don't.) We can only hope they'll fix it.

Yeah, he's defiantly a cutie! This is him after I edited him a little:

Hello, I thought I would upload the clothing for anyone who's interested. There are 3 Adult designs Male/Female with two colours for each.
I didn't want to leave the little nippers out of it, so I have just made some Kid's shirts too - although I missed out the 'It's Sausage Time' one, because it seems rather inappropriate - to make up for it they have 3 colours. I also did some 'Plum' hats for adult and kids too.
Here's a picture showing roughly what's in the packages...
I've added an artwork folder like before in case you want them.
Remember, spawned zombie townies love CC - so apologies in advance for all the never-ending unwanteds, that will probably teleport in wearing these plum hats.

It has to end??? >.>
I'm not sure how you can look at this and the other thread where the person does nothing but fulfill wishes and say: "Working as intended".
These two threads go a long way towards showing just how random this game is.
especially things like this: "...the others just want to buy new ones, but never want to use them."

A bit off-topic, am I the only one who can't look at this picture without giggling now?
All I see is Mr. Sausages walking in the background and I am instantly distracted, lol.
