So err..... wanna come over? - sims3luva22 - 24-04-2008 03:05 PM
I was thinking about the social aspect of the upcomming game and wondered what you guys thought about in terms of what it may be like.
Constantly based on your Sims popularity you would hear the phone ringing off the walls to chat or come to a secret society lot.
Do you think this time, instead of just wanting to talk, they will invite your sim over for a little rendez vous?
I think it would be neat. You wouldn't have to spy half as much, and if you wanted to catch up on some gossip etc. You could.
As well as *cough* some other things

Well in TS2, sims can invite your sim on dates through the phone (if only they'd ask face to face, but I guess they want you to be able to decline), so I think that in TS3 they would carry it over to inviting you over to their house.
It will definitely make cheating a lot easier. I hope that sims like hanging out at certain houses better than others. In real life, everyone wants to hang out at the house that has the nicest stuff etc. With kids, the most relaxed parents are a huge perk.

So true. I forgot, in nl they did ask but it was usually to a community lot which my game couldn't really handle (slow lappie)
Sims with the partier trait could get invited to parties all the time.

being able to go over a simmie's house... ahhh the endless possibilities~!!!

Yeah, that is what I like the most about the seamless neighborhood. You will be able to now come over people's house and see them, instead of someone always having to go to your house if they want to and if they are not at work.
Then if a person who walks by looks good enough, that you want your sims to meet them, and possibly date them, you can follow and meet them, instead of stopping everything all at once to meet them before they disappear into thin air, never to walk by again, like the townies who do not have houses in the neighborhood.

Haha! I hated that, especially when they were super cute. I guess in the sims three isn't love at first sight. More like love at first chase! I can see our sims run down a person. Knowing that they won't be able to dissapear makes things so attainable.
I got lucky in uni though. I would look in the college directory and have my sim stalk a cutie and call them until their relationship score went up, then make them date date.
At least now if they dissspear into a gome or building, you can make them ring the doorbell or knock. Because you know they are in there. Lol

Yesss i am so sick of forcing my sims to chase someone down and then that person walks off into nothing never to be found.. i love this seamless neighborhood soooo much.
haha Cause now..My sim can go anywhere no limitations at all..well except rabbit holes but still..i like this much much better.

I was playing the sim s 2 few days ago and i pressed the mailbox my vousin did somethign to the mailbox that u have alot of choices and i pressed make friends for me and the phone rang 24/7 that i had to remove the phones and when i put it back it still rang and i couldnt call nannies or anything
Re: So err..... wanna come over? - sims3luva22 - 25-04-2008 07:06 AM
Hmmm sounds like the mailbox was boolproped. I did bool prop to help make friends w the whole n hood for a job promotion and everyone called! Of course I was too lazy to keep all 40 odd relationships up so they then called to tell my sim they were no longer friends. Of course not before I got the promotion muaha!
At least to get promoted now, you can take some work home. I'm guessing you can get promoted in different ways instead of just based on who you knew or making friends. Loner and shy sims would best bene from. Taking work home.

yeah that happens with boolprop and i fell for it too!!! the most annoying thing ever..
haha.
thats why i pretty much refuse to cheat this time around.
