Today, SimGuruLauren took over the Sims 3 twitter account to hold a question and answer session. The following are the questions and answers, taken from the session. Be warned this is a bit long.
@MadelenMyrberg @SimGuruLauren You can take the whole family! But only Young Adult and older can travel to the future by themselves.

@moptweets Only the two new careers (Astronomer & Bot Arena) and self employment are available in Oasis Landing.

@Sims3Garden There isn't a school in Oasis Landing, but you can Edit Town and place one if you want to!

@BiggestSimsFan @SimGuruLauren Yes! You can't start out as a Plumbot only household, but once you've added/created one you can.

@DJ_Summers1999 You can't have romantic relationships with your descendants, but you can have romantic relationships with other future Sims!

@KaicieLovessims Sorry, there is no traveling to the past. Only able to travel back and forth between the present and the future.

@syarafinar Yes!!! The Jetpack is a fun new object and I can't wait for you to play with it 🙂

@megan85454444 You can just delete the Time Portal off your lot and ignore it if you never want to travel. But future traveling is good fun!

@crinrict @SimGuruLauren The weird/funny walk is the result of the Wonderland moodlet. Any Sim who has that moodlet will walk like that.

@tazreentasnim That's a hard question! I really love the Holo Disc + Sprites, creating neat looking Plumbots, and bug eating!

@Kelly_Nichole_S There are two new careers, the Astronomer Career and Bot Arena Career. You can also be a self employed Bot Builder.

@SamWitts2 There is a sliding door that doesn't have any windows! It splits from the middle & slides out to both sides like an elevator.
— The Sims (@TheSims3) October 11, 2013
@WhipperWhirlSim There's a chance that your descendants will be the same supernatural type for any supernatural type that can have children

@HLGamez The Almanac of Time is a great resource to learn about your descendants and the 'magnifying glass' can help you find them!
— The Sims (@TheSims3) October 11, 2013
@HLGamez If you meet a descendant out & about you can tell they're your descendant if they're marked 'Descendant' in the relationship panel.

@bellasimmer Yes! There are lots of new hair styles for men and women and even children! New facial hair too!
— The Sims (@TheSims3) October 11, 2013
@Sims3Garden The Origin Exclusive Content – Dark Industrial Set has some awesome 'factory/grungy' objects like metal grate rugs.
— The Sims (@TheSims3) October 11, 2013
In addition, she answered the following question before the session:
@MeaganJo_Sims I might be wrong, but I think what you're referring to is one of our new decor sculptures! Environment: 10 ! I love it =)

There were many more questions SimGuruLauren did not answer, but she has said she will try to answer questions on her twitter account.
