New Expansion Pack Announced! Ambitions!

[Swede1992]

Did I forget any? Some of them weren't that much fun in my opinion, like werewolves and bigfoot. And I never tried doing much with vampires, cause they die the second they see daylight lol. But then, I'm not a fan of the mummies either. Plantsims were cool. And aliens. Witches too.

Freetime had zombies *again* as well. It could be acquired with the genie.

GEEZ! I want lots of weird, crazy life states in the Sims 3! No fair! 

[Swede1992]

Well, you have ghosts, mummies and now robotic sims, so it seems as if EA is pulling this 1-life-state-per-expansion-pack idea again.
I bet that when Sims 3 gets 8 expansion packs you'll have lots to choose from.

I have a few questions about Ambitions. I don't have the game yet, but because a lot of you do, maybe you are now already experienced enough to answer some:

Now sims can do laundry, do they have different types of dayly clothes, because they can not wair the same clothes that are in the laundry machine at that moment?

I've read that robots will arive with a taxi. Isn't somebody to invent them first and than make them before they will added to your game?

I've also read that a robot live longer than normal sims, but need other food to eat, like iron and other metals. Is there a way to make them immortal by eating a sort of food that give them the ability to be younger like that Ambrosia does for sims?

After a timemachine has been made, can it than technically being upgraded and so yes, to what? Unbrakable, sending sims to the right timeperiod they choose, paradox proof, that sort of things.

Can a robot technically being upgraded? And to what?

Leto,

Please ask these questions in the new thread called Ambitions: First Impressions. That's the thread I created to discuss the actual game now that it's being released and we can have solid information.  Thanks!

Ah good. I will remove (or copy) my questions to the new topic tomorow. Sadly I can't do that with my mobile phone I'm working on now, though.

Thought they may have posted my copy today and just realised, why are my parents at home all day, it's a bank holiday! No ones working hardly, looks like mine may be late or on time if they are good at delivering! Late by a day or two though!

I did manage to get a majic laundry gnome, not sure what that means, but looks like a teddy bear.  It came out of the dryer when the sim removed the clothes.  Really cute little thing.  Here is one of his little adventures in the middle of the night.  He must like that dryer. lol

[wildredchild]

Awww, he is cute and you are right about him loving that dryer.  Go teddy!

[Swede1992]

Wait... A teddy bear came out of the dryer?
Is it only me, or isn't that an old Mr Bean sketch?
EA reference perhaps?

[Saltypaws]

Well, they said it was a laundry gnome, but looks like a bear to me.

So that was the secret everyone was talking about! :O

What special thing can we do with that teddy bear?

My Sim finally got the bear gnome too.    I was impatient to learn what the laundry surprise was so I sent him to the launderette, I figured his chances were better than washing at home.   Of course, the high end washers were $60 and the lower end were $30 or 35  (brain cramp).   Anyway he got one and I usually name my gnomes so when I clicked on the option to name it asked "If I wanted to name Abracadabra?", I just used the default name that came up and my Bear's name is Cruz.
Snuggles is a fabric softener that uses a bear and when our Sims put the cloths in the dryer, they throw a fabric softener sheet into the dryer, must be a snuggle sheet.

[Saltypaws]

Right now the little bear just moves around like the rest of the gnomes, wonder where he will end up next.

Well, I know now that the hero thing they are talking is, when my sim got her key to the city, they named her a neighborhood hero, she got a +50 moodlet for 5 days from that.  Her meter is always full.
