Unfortunately you'll have to wait quite a while before this EP drops to 50%. Simmers apparently believe For Rent actually has SOME form of redeemable value---completely unlike Batuu (which not even Steam with its additional bundled discounts could convince ppl to buy). LMAO Course hope is always on the horizon for the life…
favorite: visiting simmer made custom worlds to let my sims go on vacation, attend custom private schooling, see their relatives/friends and/or complete business trips least favorite: the save game BLOAT having more than one world creates in your save game folder. I've yet to successfully complete all 3 worlds in WA after…
You're talking about the TS3 Collection right? If so then it seems that promo has ended. EA discounted all EPs and SPs half price to $9.99. Steam went the distance and further discounted that by another 67%. So you could get ALL EPs & SPs for only $3.50 each plus base game at regular $19.99 price. That had to be one of the…
And for those folks who may be new to TS3: don't forget to install Twallan's SP suite to fix all the game breaking bugs which have remained in all this DLC content since release :s
Call me old school. I've always kept launching/playing TS3 using my original 2009 retail DVD version. Until this week that is. When I saw the massive discount Steam tacked onto Origin's sale of TS3 via The TS3 Collection aka Base game + DLC content EA's released to date. I've NEVER seen any DLC pricing for TS3 so low on…
IDK. Has the latest patch update: * finally fixed the aging and incest bugs? * now letting my TS4 sim toddlers safely change their clothes in CAS without existing as an elder? * now permitting the ability to play a 2 sim week semester at Uni? Or change the seasonal length to whatever number sim weeks you were able to? *…
It's been available on Steam since Midnight this morning. HOWEVER I'm definitely holding off on buying this based on the hijinx going on with the patch update. Thankfully disabled that so my game is untouched. For me, the patch issue isn't Sims aging up, but incest/inappropriate relationships sims now have. And from past…
High school EP is a joke & Zerbu's mod is still BOSS. Your sims literally don't do anything in class! After lilsimsie & other YTer previews, EP makes Bantu EP exciting O.x
What do you do in the Sims 3?... Play large legacy families from craddle to grave. But tbh haven't been playing much for while now. Distracted by too many other games atm that are out (Farm Sim 22, Space Engineer/NMS/X4/EGS/Elite Dangerous, RDR2, Elder Scrolls/Fallout etc. And soon Starfield next year. Hopefully Sims…
Sigh. I really, really, REALLY tried to get into TS4. But Uni was the EP that broke my TS4 experience. That and the inability to upload, travel to and/or live in whatever customized world/hood that simmers share. But back to Uni. This EP since TS2 has been a core game play pack for all my simming. More specifically since…
No it's the same household of a large sim family. e.g 4+ kids. I typically play legacy families of 4 kids and invite their potential high school sweethearts to attend Uni with them. As this expedites their friendly & romantic relationships after graduation. Because we all know how much of a grind careers have become in…
The MTS mod I was referring to is here: http://modthesims.info/d/659091/empty-worlds-with-custom-names.html Lets you create your own custom worlds. What you said here: "Students can enroll in britechester or foxbury no matter where they live. " Yes. But you misunderstood me. I don't want my sims living at home off campus…
Yes it is. If I were the lead designer, I'd taken this obvious into consideration. Instead of creating 2 schools, create a single University with 2 colleges. The college of liberal Arts (Brichester U) and the College of Engineering & Science (Foxbury). Allow sims to take classes freely between these colleges. This would…
Thank you both so much! Off to try these great suggestions :) edit: oh just thought of a quick fix for overly inquisitive/ambitious sims pyromaniacs which the game loves spawning (typically with Cook Skill = -1 to 0) for explicit purpose of trying to access any venue areas with a stove: JUST LOCK THE RESTAURANT KITCHEN…
Thank you both so much for the quick reply! @Stormkeep Yep. That's exactly the thought process I had as I'm making this multiplex venue. Except all the features/functionality I'm trying to add is hit or miss based on lack of experience how sims will react. So that bit about leaving it as a library lot to attract the geek…
@Chicklet453681 could you also clarify for ppl who are Steam users (or non Origin/EA play users): 1. Is Origin required to play once you've bought & installed game the first time? Or can Origin be disabled once you've verified your account the first time? (question stems from nightmare experience suffering PTSD from…
THANK YOU Chicklet453681! My earlier posts were the perfect example of what typical misinformation can do on the web. This is a HUGE relief on my end. Just hope this indie dev can do it justice the way Sims 1& 2 revolutionized and came to define the Sim space. TBH, The Sims is in dire need of a 2nd competitor in this…
Adding: Where I do draw a line on excessive DLCs is the perfect poster child known as TS4. IMO this has to be the one Sims franchise where your post is 100% true. This past holiday season, Steam actually extended the TS4 discounts well into the new year. It literally ends tomorrow in some 25 hours from now.…
Yeah I totally get your point. But my frustration from being screwed over with SC5 was the final straw. I vowed to NEVER return to world building any SC franchise ever again. Haven't looked back since. But was left very depressed with the void abandoning SC5 created. So C:S was an absolute lifesaver. Regarding the price:…
Sigh. Had extremely high hopes for Paralives. Was aware of it, but hadn't been keeping tabs on the executive management specifics. Only cared for its potential to revolutionize the sim game space the way Cities Skylines replaced SimCity due to the fatal train wreck that was SC5. But now that I know who's responsible for…
Would have to disagree. TS2 OFB was -- and still remains-- LIGHTYEARS ahead of anything TS4 has produced by means of a business expansion pack to date. Especially when you combine TS2 OFB and Apartments EPs. It made living and working at home sims a relatively seamless experience. What's even more worse, is the fact EA…
Another complaining about the complainers thread. Well, I'll take the bait and bite. Seems EA may have lost a significant number of potential TS4 customers with this latest fiasco going down on Steam. 1st, they insult Steam players by requiring pervasive online access to play any of their games. Are you currently lacking…
If it has a complete overhaul to* open the game world. After TS3 it's impossible to regress back to the lot claustrophobia of TS2 * open all water body areas for Sim swimming/marine navigation * Add back the TS3 color wheel, CAS, CAP, CAW, and in game CAW utility tools. So basically, * add ALL the missing game content and…
@MoonandStars83 Yes. But can't figure out why the "move" option isnt' comming up. I enabled both Household and Single Sim move options in SP. But after buying the property on the computer, can't get this option to come up using the phone. Only the "travel" option comes up?
Finally succeeded in evicting those pesky Uni Sims from my Sim's house. Bought the property on the computer. But there doesn't seem to be a "move" interaction to let them move in now that my Sim household owns the property? Has anyone succeeded in moving their Sims from the dorm into another residence while a Uni? Some…
Thank you @MoonandStars83! This is very sweet of you. Now if I could only figure out how to expel those annoying Uni sims who the game keeps moving into my vacant house at Uni. Can't move my sims into the expansive mansion I customized for them when they travel to Uni. Can't evict these random Sim students from Edit Town…
