Skin Tone Genetics

Q Just wondering, is having children in this game different with skin tones? Like if someone dark skinned and someone light skinned have a child, will that child land somewhere in between? I might have over looked it, sorry if I did, just wondering. Cheap novelty 02:20, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

Since skin tones can be chosen by a slider it is possible that children will have a melded skin tone. -- a_morris 15:21, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

A Yeah what a_moris said the sims will have skintones that are mixed (for example If you created a blue sim (using the color palete) and a yellow sim (using the color palete) It might come out a green sim or they said sometimes it will come out blue or yellow --Sprite7868 22:56, 12 February 2009 (UTC)-- Sprite7868 14:43, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

A I heard some where a long time a go that you could change any part of the body you wanted like you could create somebody with fat body with short legs or the other way around Still dont know if this is true or not--Sprite7868 22:56, 12 February 2009 (UTC)-- Sprite7868 14:43, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Requirements?

QWhat are the requirements for the game to be played on a computer? Surely the developers stated them somewhere... but I couldn't find them.-5ub7ank^(7alk) 18:04, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

A The Sims 2 UK - The Sims 3 Minimum System Requirements It's an image. If someone would write it out that would be very helpful. (The link is in the article under external links right now). --a_morris (talk) 20:43, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

A The response is yes, it like if you were arking if we can drive a Mclaren F1 at 100Km/h (60mph) CF001

No Aliens?

I find it hard to believe that there will be no aliens in the game, there should be. counting the fact that you can go out in space as an astronaut, then shouldn't aliens be like ... a friend brought home from work or something? like they do in "The Sims 2".

Aliens should Be Included. Because it's fun to have aliens in the game. i my self am a huge fan of the sims alien section. although they don't seem to have many new options for the aliens in the sims 2 packs.

Xiaou 12:10, 3 April 2009 (UTC)Xiaou

according to Suuny, there will be aliens in the game. check out http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Ask_Sunny_The_Sims_3_Questions Jacob11693p 15:35, 3 April 2009

Another Little Question.

will there be stuff packs and expansion packs?.

Xiaou 12:11, 3 April 2009 (UTC)Xiaou

It is already confirmed that there will be expansion packs. --a_morris (talk) 13:42, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Cars

Does anyone know if a driveway has to be built in the same way as the sims 2? I remember seeing on one of the creator camp profiles that there was a house in the woods where the car was parked on regular ground.

It can be placed anywhere (don't need to connect it to street and other Driveway), is much smaller (no space for Sim walking) and has no floor tile.

Length of Pregnancy

TALK - 14:09, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

There looks to be the beginning of an edit war about the length of pregnancy in The Sims 3. If something is confirmed, don't just say it is confirmed. Please try to provide some kind of reference. A link to a web site or video, the name and issue of a magazine, the event at which it was announced by EA, etc.

I put a note of "citatio needed" there.

Bella Goth

I heard a rumor that if you do not play the game at all, the strylne will contnue just as it did in the Sims and the Sims 2. If this is true, what will happen to Bella Goth? There are no aliens in the game, so she cannot be abducted...--Bella Goth 20:34, 19 May 2009 (UTC)Bella Goth

it could be something to do with don

good news

For those who tough that a GMA 965 Chipset will not run the game it false it run very well (that the graphic card ive got) C001

Corrections for a couple of inaccuracies on the main page

1) Sims 3 was NOT developed by EA Black Box. It was developed in the EA Redwood Shores studio by EA itself (under the EA Play label). 2) The engine used is not Renderware - it is a proprietary engine developed specifically for The Sims 3.

First is confirmed, second confirmed as well, added cites. Revrant

The good, the bad, The could be better and the dam right wrong

The good

1. Living City

Everyone lives and breeds. It's great.

2. Going outside

Woot!

3. Customizing

Do I need to say more?

4. Trails

Evil, Loner, Brave and many more!

5. Ghosts

interact and play with a ghost

The Bad

1. Living City

Everyone lives even your own people you created. It can be a problem when you want to marry one you just made and discover a baby.

2. Crashes

When your lucky it doesn't happen that often. When your unlucky it happens a lot! Most sucky when saving witch corups your safe games...

3. Code 13

Prefens you from saving your game.

4. Some bugs

There are some bugs that can be iratating. Donno if it's a bug but some people get 4 trails or less.

5. Anti Gay?!

Need to look into this one a bit more. But it seems like you can't really get gay people.

The could be better

1. Some people stuff

People won't use hats, beard, or ear rings and so on.

2. limited amout of hair

Really want to see more. But you can find more in the store and maybe one day on Exchange.

The Wrong

1. Come on! Cabbage, garlic and Onion's growing one bushes!

Come on! Thats just Stupid!
