Played it alot today...
Made a family of 5 A grandma, parents, aughter and baby. The daughter is a total bitch, hates everyone in the family. I made the mom bi and made her have an affair with the maid, so far he daughter, son and husband caught her..lol. The grandma married the handy man....and she's the only one who can cook. The kid is like the mom just teens and old people can't "woo hoo". IT sucks making an old persoon a family person cause all they want is grand children....I'm gonna kill the grandma. I made the kid try to fix the PC he got fried and walked around all day burnt with spikey hair...lol. All in all it''s a much needed improvement and is fun but...
Any family more then 3 the game turns into "Sims 2:Watching the mildly retarted inflicted with ADD and OCD who DON'T listen"
The AI needs a kick in the ass...so much of a kick in the ass a foot should be broken off. So far:
I tried to have the dad help the son with home work qued up after he ate. He wlaks to the son stops at the next seat eats again, I tell him agian to help the son, he gets up walks to the son turns around goes around the table and eats again.
DO NOT give them the remote controll car., or at least don't put it outside. So many times they missed work and school cause on the way out the door they were called by the shiney metal thing.
I advise not letting them watch TV, use the computer, or read when they are close to peeing or going to work cause they just wont
countless times a sim was in a clear path and just stopped walking then complaind there was something in the way. Eventhough they walked by there tons of times. This happens ALOT.
I had a fireman stand in the middle of a open room and claim he was trapped by a wall!?
2 sims couldn't figure to walk around the house or through the house to get the back yard, they stood at the corner of the ouside of the house complaining there is something in the way. I had to click the "Move here" a few times for them to get around the house.
They like to get in each others way cause sims don't know to walk around a person they just stand there yelling till one sim wanders away, you could tell them to move her e but that only works if they deciede to listen. One time I told the dad to pee in the downstairs bathroom but the grandma wandered in as he was about to go. She complained something was in her way, he bitched that she was in the room this went on for a while. The whole time I was clicking the upstairs BRoom which was igonred. One that happens often is 2 sims will be face to face they go to talk one sim will walk away and try to go around something, they can come back then go all zig zag through the house to get on the other side of the sim they want to talk to.
I got a house with a porch, they walk down the stairs then back up to get on the porch.
With all that the game is still fun. Frustrating but fun. I was gonna take screen shots of soem of this but whatever.
