Alien fertility increased. Male Sims that are abducted by Aliens can now get pregnant.
Fixed in Patch 1.99.264/1.78
please create a new thread if you're still experiencing this issue,
Perhaps this is just a bad reroll/reload/luck? My male Sim got abducted by aliens no later than around 23 hours ago, and he did get pregnant from that. No mods, no CC, nothing. Granted, he wasn't a scientist but I'm not sure if that would change the outcome. Adding a screenshot of my terrified boy in his first trimester as proof.
I have reloaded the game exactly 23 times with my abducted scientist yesterday. Nothing happened. Same with other scientist since the new patch. But I'll check, I think I have an abducted non scientist abductee somewhere, will try and reload that one.
I didn't know before that reloading helped with the outcome - mine happened at random and rarely, even before the old patch about reducing the times of alien abductions altogether. My male "human" Sim got pregnant after the 6th abduction in general (and second in one gaming session). Perhaps yours there is just an unlucky guy? I'll hope for your worries to go away. Get that alien bag, sis 👽🙏
I have tried with a household with 1 male scientist and 2 young adults all being abducted at the same time. None of them got pregnant after 8 reloads. (didn't go for 20 this time, with the three of them, 8 reloads should be enough).
This is what I discovered about male scientist abductions and pregnancy:
The first signs of pregnancy occur exactly 2 hours after they return. They get a tummy ache. After exactly 24 hours after returning they know they're pregnant. They give birth exactly 5 days after the abduction and at exactly the same time they were abducted.
It was also easy getting a scientist pregnant: get him to the highest level as a scientist, call aliens and let him do something outside at 10 pm (super focused). If lucky they'd always be abducted at 10:10 pm, it also works when I let the Sim travel somewhere and come back before midnight.
As you can see I'm an expert at male scientists abductions and pregnancy LOL.
The only thing that has changed is that my 3 males were genetically engineered (new feature in "household"). My male Sim chose to have a genetically engineered baby as a single parent.
Now I will try and find an older file or a Sim created before the last patch and test again. If that works, the problem is linked with the new patch.
When did you find out your Sim was pregnant? Did you know after 2 hours or did you have to wait longer than that.
