I figure they’re probably coded similarly to neighbours in Sulani that come over to put out your fire. In my experience they’re very quick to put it out unless they can’t reach it. There isn’t a lot of head bobbing and standing around in their case (in my game at least), so I think we might be fine here.

Same here. It’s funny because I literally hated burglars in TS2 (didn’t play TS3, no experience with it’s burglars) but I really want them back. I just hope athletic sims get to beat them up, and dogs (perhaps cats?) can scare them away.

Oh, I like the flammability. I take no responsibility for the death traps I’m about to build and the sims I’m about to kill – they’re the ones that gave us this power…

One thing about firefighters though – if they’re going to be like in TS2 and walk past my flaming tree only to yell at my sims not to call them if there’s no fire on the lot, I’m gonna lose my mind.

As someone with BPD, The Sims fanbase is the most BPD-like gaming community I have ever seen.

If you know, you know.

If it’s my business, why are you insisting on getting into it? Apparently you really do “b****” when they give you content, by the way. Which is to say “boast” about how grateful you are.

Incidentally, you’re right. TS2 at least had the ability to create custom neighborhoods that aren’t just prerendered and prenamed static images with a handful of predetermined lots on them. That’s TS1 territory.

Honestly, it probably would’ve even worked back then if EA had properly optimized the game. Their method for how patterns loaded in the game was apparently REALY inefficient and ate a lot of memory, which is why opening CASt’s pattern screen took FOREVER if there were a lot of swatches to load.

That also accounted for a lot of the Open World Strain, alongside routing errors, baked-in simulation issues and trying to load needless junk like every single NPC’s inventories.

Admittedly, I’d just settle for just loading sections of the world like TS4 does and having a limited-pattern color wheel if it didn’t come at the cost of being able to actually make my own neighborhoods and semi-efficient custom content from scratch.

Why are people still saying that Sims 3 will break your system? That might’ve been true in 2009 ELEVEN YEARS AGO when Sims 3 was first released but even the worst computer in 2020 can play it perfectly fine. Hell, my Macbook Air from 2017 can play it with minimal issues.
