My hubby, if only he was real.

Oh I didn't mean it like that. For example having 5 lots per world is actually an improvement in multiple area's, and only negative in one.

-begin of ramble-

Toddlers I agree with, that they should be in the game. Pools I can live without, because I want them to do them properly. In the Sims 3 they cheated with pools and treated them as Swim-able basements, rather than an actual pool. & That became annoying when you'd experience major lag when making/having your Sims swim. Because it was basically a cheated code effort that resulted in less performance.

But not necessarily everything missing, is a negative. I'm really disappointed overall with the base game, because of EA.

However The Sims Studio/Maxis have done extremely well with setting up the foundation for The Sims 4, so that in the future, The Sims 4 will be much better than 3 ever has.

So even though they didn't get enough time to do what they wanted, they cut features in order to make a solid foundation.
But it's obvious that the people who worked on the game, wanted more to be in the game.

Like one of the things that Sims fans have noticed, there were obvious things that were cut that the developers wanted in the game. For example, there are toy cars that when blown up have an incredible amount of detail in them, suggesting they were shrunk versions of the cars they actually wanted in the game.
They also focused on busy roads, which makes no sense if they weren't focused on cars.

They also have community lots in the game that are no longer accessible such as a Car Wash, Fast Food Diner (with Drive Through and Car Park), Grocery Store etc. and they have a lot of detail that obviously they were cut.

& the fact that the development team focused on busy community lots, to then not have any commercial lots is a bit weird.




They also had lots of community lot items such as fast food menu boards, retail objects like stacked clothes, and cafe styled tables. There are also careers based on those lots.

The Sims 4 will not be reviewed by any publication until post release date.

meh, expected tbh, reviewers would just talk about the negative things...
I don't get why they aren't releasing more official gameplay videos though, that's what makes people the most excited to play the game.

People are upset with a lot of the choices they made, and they are probably trying to avoid any mroe back lash at this point.

Trevor & Lucy had the first kid for the second generation today: a boy named Justin. I saved just in time because my game freezed as I was building a room for the baby

Never ****ing mind. everything that could go wrong in Blonde Ambition Legacy DID go wrong.

I went back into the game a couple hours after I last commented in here. Justin was becoming a toddler so I had Trevor throw a birthday party for him with his friends. I invited Marylena. BIG MISTAKE. The bitch makes a pass at Trevor IN FRONTOF LUCY and that puts a huge blow to their relationship. So only plans to create a second child would've been put on hold.

Justin's toddler days were hell because the house was a mess due to empty bottles, trash and **** like that. Trevor and Lucy aren't that neat and I hadn't hired a maid at this point because money was low. I tried using the energizer on Lucy but I used it below Gold and all her needs fell down. Justin's fun need was a pain in the ass until I bought a teddy bear and it was impossible for either of them to teach all of Justin's skills. He got to talk and walk before he aged up to a kid.

So everything started to get back to normal. I had called in sick and I managed to get Trevor and Lucy's Aspiration bar up to Platinum so they could use the energizer to max their needs up. Trevor needed a TON of skill points to get covered.

So Justin comes home from school, pees, showers and then goes to bed. It's Friday so I don't see why I need to have him focus on homework. Trevor comes home from work and starts working on his last cleaning skill point. I shift the game speed time to Level 3, thinking everything was ok.

Boy was I dead wrong! Apparently Justin was too "hot". I got the message too late and the social worker came and took him away.

ALL THAT HARD WORK TO GET THEM BACK TO NORMAL AND THEN THIS HAPPENS

Thank god Lucy still had 18 days before becoming an elder, but this is still devastating. I guess I'll need to have Justin adopted into one of the spare's families. But I can't believe I lost a kid because he was too hot in his bed.

But I had to exit the game after that, because I was just too devastated to wait for the next kid to be born

Wait was this on TS4 or TS3?

The Sims 2

Alright, I've come up with a plan to get Justin back into the family...though it means he will have to be the adopted son of a spare.

The Legacy Challenge rules say that its ok to use the Elixir of Life, so I plan on using it a couple of times on both Trevor and Lucy so that Lucy will have enough time to create one more child after this current baby she is pregnant with.

One baby will be the heir, the other will be the spare. and I have to work hard to make sure nothing goes wrong. I'm still freaked out I lost Justin over a simple temperature problem that occurred while he was in bed.

Looks more like an old Nash Grier

I just made him because I liked the look of him, I didn't think he looked like someone else

Is there any chance for this game to leak before 9.2.14? I want to play this game before my college start on 9.1.14

Thank god my college starts on October 28th

Super low, people still have to crack it too. 9.2.14 is a worldwide release... unless you're buying it, I doubt you'll be playing on the 2nd of September anyway.

Things got better in my Blonde Ambition Legacy today. Trevor and Lucy gave birth to a girl named Veronicas who is almost a kid now and has learned all her toddler skills. It wasn't hell this time around. Trevor is now Level 8 in the Medicine career and he also had his Lifetime Aspiration bar so high that a gypsy came over and gave us a Genie Lamp. So I wished for Peace of Mind and for Money twice. So now they have over $20,000 which is great so I expanded the house a little so that they would have room for a dining area and a recreation room for drums and stuff. I'll probably create a pool area as well and maybe plant some trees and buy some artwork to make the house better.

There were still messy moments though. When I was trying for them to get Lucy pregnant a third time, a BURGLAR broke into the house. Thankfully I had bought them a car and the car alarm went off. He didn't steal anything thank god and we got $500.
