The Sims 4 Patch Update!In todays base game patch The Sims team has expanded upon the Neighborhood Stories system they first added back in November last year. So far we’ve mostly seen a lot of phone calls from known (and sometimes unknown) sims, with questions about whether they should try for a baby or try to get promoted in their career. Now it seems we’ll get a lot more to control! I’ve cut out a few of the highlights but to get the whole picture I’ll recommend you to read the official blog post. “Neighbor Sims everywhere may now:Adopt young Sims into their household, aged between infant and children.Become pregnant with their Significant Other, and eventually deliver. Family-Oriented Sims are more likely to do this, while Noncommittal Sims are less likely. If a Sim or their SO Hates Children, they will never do this.Some Sims may instead adopt a dog or cat (requires The Sims 4 Cats and Dogs).Join and leave careers. Sim Traits heavily influence these decisions. Elder Sims may decide to retire.Households can move into and out of lots.Die in different kinds of accidents, depending on risk factors such as Age, Traits, and Career. A critical part of the Neighborhood Stories System is a set of new gameplay controls that allow you to tune which life changes Neighbor Sims can and cannot have. Independent configurations for My Households vs. Other Households. For each group of households in a particular tab, you can choose to enable or disable each type of life change and even disallow all Neighborhood Stories for those households. This provides a fast and easy way to decide what happens to played households in My Households, versus Other Households out in the world. (Rotational players, we see you!) Household-specific configurations. Want even more control? Do you have a vision for which households need which types of life changes? You can make it happen! Each and every household can have its own configuration, allowing you to tailor life changes that make sense to that household’s storyline.Global enable/disable setting. If life changes happening all over the world are just not your thing, that’s okay! Neighborhood Stories can be entirely disabled under Game Options using the “Reset Custom Configurations” Button. On any mailbox, try the new Check Recent Neighborhood Stories interaction. You can keep tabs on all the recent Neighborhood Stories. If you’re so inclined, use that information to visit the Neighbor Sims and see their life changes in person!”What about fixing My Wedding Stories?I’m pretty sure that this patch does not include any of the upcoming fixes for My Wedding Stories but that we can expect another patch to be arriving in the coming weeks. That patch should include the fixes/improvements listed on the Laundry List that was posted March 3. -- source link
