So went through a lot to try and get that eye sparkling lifestate: SimBot
So yeah turns out that its basically like a normal sim except u dont need to shower, whats so good about that??
Okay yeah thumbs up for the being able to "smash" things.
But COME ON EA! Their isnt even some sort of supernatural effect they have!
its just another controllable sim, that wants a job and have pretty much all the basic needs apart from hygiene to be taken care of. Its so much to take care of a sim already, we dont need another life state to take care of in that detail!
I preferred in the first sims how the servo were to clean the house and SERVE the family like a mini robotic butler kinda thing, i liked that, maybe it would of been better if the simbot was that! We dont need another sim with a robotic look, that cant really do anything robotic, that NEEDS sleep or to be taken care of.
Woulda been a lot better if there was some sot of machine the simbot goes back to for "charging" and comes out again similar to the first sims.
So disappointed in the simbot
..lke ive extremely! apart from falling in love with appliances and "smash"ing things up, they are pretty much juts the same as any old sim u make with a robot appearance!
thoughts people??
if im missing any cool things u can do with the simbot, by all means, enlighten mee!

...THEY DON'T AGE!!!!!!!
They may rust and die but If you keep them in good shape, tehy'll be great for Legasy families.
Does anybody know what I can do?
so far I found 2 way to get a Sim bot,you can add the my best friend "lifetime reward" or do the inventor career, is not ten different gems that's for making a pink skull, it's 1 pink gem cut in a heart shape ,once you start the inventor career a opportunity will pop up it's very easy to do ..
I think you might need to be lvl 10 inventor and from what i've heard you need to send gems out in the mail to get the heart shape to be available...not really sure because i thought i collected over 10 different gems but the collection skill didnt confirm that so i'm really actually depressed i want the heart-shaped one and he collected hundreds of gems and can do like 6 or 7 different cuts but not the heart shaped. wow the more i type the sadder i get
You must first find 10 different gems. Then the Heart-Shaped will become an option when you send it to the gemcutters.
what I did was ,I've collected ,ten of the same gem color and cut it all different shapes,sample: I collected 10 yellow gems and cut the yellow gem in different shapes,wash and repeat to all gem colors, to the Pink Diamond heart shape showed up
So perhaps try to find 10 more the hard way, and you will get your heart cut, although some people have reported that if they find any gems at all with the miner, it permanently prevented them from getting the heart cut.
I had trouble with the Firefighter and Stylist careers. in the Firefighter, he would never get credit for saving sims and putting out fires. and in the stylist career, I would do every single thing the customer asked for and not get credit.
This simbot thing is bugging me though, my sim wants to be a monster maker, and I went through all of the trouble to find all of the ingrediants for it.
what should I do?
do I have to wait for the opprotunity and start over?
any help would be much appreciated.
Now I like them, but they do make for poor servants. I think EA was going for handy companions.
I had expected a lot of customization, functionally and aesthetically, this time around. I am disappointed in that area.
Also, no off switch, no recharging, limited lifespan and they become ghosts? They were never alive unless the science lab is using souls of sims inside those cores. There is also no risk to owning them. Servos could run amok and be a danger to their owners. I think it would be fun if the Simbots could turn rogue if they were not maintained well. Have them run off and attack sims around the neighborhood.
I just don't think they live up to their potential.
i agree with you about they should have made it more into a servo then a human that as to sleep etc, it took my sim ages to find a pink diamond ages to grow life fruits etc to actually make a simbot and i honestly don't think doing all that for what a simbot does is worth the hazzle. As i have read all simbots are elders so they all have same life span so its just easier to get a my best friend it stead of creating one, yes i read allso you can create more if you invent it. but then you got to go though finding again plus why would i want another adult to take care of.i want a robot that helps out my family cooks if the don't cook etc i loved the servo in sims 2.
i am not saying EA's didn't do a good job on them its just not a simbot i was exspecting i would have liked it to be more robotic charge etc and voice comands
I hear ya! I got my best friend and when he arrived with needs bars that had to be filled I was very downtrodden. y the heck does a robot need to eat and sleep?? cant I just put him on the charger? and as I dont think he should have to eat, y does he have waste??? my cellphone doesnt need to undergo waste removal, niether should my robot.
was a big waste of time and Life happiness reward points
Then I can have her build the better SimBot.
They're slow. I know there has to be some trade off for the jet boots, but it can be a pain.
The other thing are the "It's a Sim Bot" emote. Ok once or twice, but there has to be a point where you just get used to the things. Having Sims break action just to emote is annoying... have them due it multiple times in five minutes is frustrating. Not to mention it breaks character with my Sim Bot Ghostbuster to have the natives more freaked out at the Sim Bot than the Ghosts. Only benefit is it makes it easy to eyeball the brave Sims.
