Miss The Chat Again?


Well surprise, surprise! It was about The Sims 2. Alot of new questions were answered this time around. =) The transcript is up now. You can read it right here. If you don't feel like bothering with the whole thing, you can read a run down right here:

You can make a graveyard!
To get to 'cameraman mode' (meaning you're playing/viewing the game in firstperson), you use "tab"
It sounded like teen Sims that runaway are likely to end up @ a community lot
If you don't create a child-Sims parent's first, the child will end up being adopted
The weird screenshots we've gotten lately (lab experiments/obstacle course etc) are at-home activites. Supposed homework!
The smallest size a lot can be is 16X16
Sims still spin to change clothes
They will still have personal inventory
You can view the sky in TS2, and some Sims will even enjoy cloud watching
There will be some sort of 'meter' that will give you an idea as to how far along a Sim is in each stage (toddler, adult, etc)
In decorating mode, things (wallpaper, etc) are organized by genre, making it easier to decorate accordingly!
It will be possible to edit videos (with programs like video premiere or window movie maker, which is free) that you create in TS2. You can also add special effects to them after they're created.
"Playing" does not mean that your Sims will, without a doubt, get pregrant.
Sims can invite guests to their wedding
The televisions in The Sims 2 will play any AVI file! Meaning you could even have them watch movies you made about them =D
Jealous Sims can cause scenes @ weddings, and there is even the possibility of one or both getting 'cold feet'.
One Simday will last about 15 real minutes.
You can control the stereo's playlist and play mp3's
The Grim Reaper will be kinder... (OK?)
Sims can make-out on couches!
There will be many new families pre-placed in the TS2 neighbourhood.
Along with food being able on community lots, clothing will be, too.
Reflections from shiny objects and mirrors have their place in TS2.
There is a chance that fires can spread around the house.
If you have identical twins originally created with identical personalities, their life experiences will still drive them to be different Sims.
Girls who go for the bad boy (bullies) will find boys who get into fights attractive, where as ones who don't like that sort of thing, will not.
Same sex couples cannot mix their DNA.
There is word of Simcity 5 in the works (apparently Luc accidentally let the cat out of the bag on this one!)
Along with family hug, there will be family kiss.
Toddler's cannot leave the house without being accompanied.
If both parents die, children end up with a social worker.
There are 4-5 channels on the television.
Sims gossip alot and their doing so has an impact on the game. They will gossip about things they've seen.
Luc mentioned the possibility of an underwater camera, but no guarantee on that.
More creative Sims have more options with the easel
Sims cannot directly kill each other.
The virtual camera in TS2 can be brought as close as 10 inches from the floor.

sumone asked wat u could do with the easel more.....the answer is u can select a moment or sumthing and then u could paint it on the easel and hang it on the wall or sell it. i of course would not sell it. i would put it on my wall if it was a special moment...imagine it was the first steps for a toddler \:D
