Alien abduction

I've had two unforced alien abductions in the same household in one week after almost never getting alien abductions before. I always have to force them to happen using MCCC. This is crazy awesome. The first abduction happened to my grandpa Sim and he didn't get pregnant. This time my immortal young adult vampire sim was abducted. I've been really contemplating getting him abducted for a while now, but he and his wife already have two toddlers. (The older toddler ages up to child in less than a week!) Now I have my answer I guess. Haha. If he gets pregnant, they'll keep the baby. I just think that it's hilarious that it happened now. I was a little disappointed that my elder Sim didn't get pregnant. Now I have a second chance and I didn't even ask for it to happen. It's crazy how that happens. Right as my game began to get a little dry...this happens. Thank you Sims 4. I really appreciate it.
EDIT: He didn't get pregnant. 😥 I'm a bit disappointed by that. I kind of want to force an alien pregnancy...but I'm also slightly relieved. Maybe it's a good thing. This house is already quite full.

    I've never had a sim be abducted by aliens before in TS4-- rotten luck perhaps in the past, with well over 1000 hours played, but I've had 3 sims in the last week abducted by aliens in the same family. I thought this was a bug, but I see @babajayne's comment stating the chances for abduction are increased with a Scientist in the household, which for the first time ever, I have! So next question, is it going to decrease back to normal if he quits that career?
  • They get pregnant from alien abductions?! Without using MCCC? I've had a few sims get abducted (one of the funniest surprises in this game) but no one got knocked up.
  • Unmodded, it's a roll of the dice on alien abduction, with or w/o pregnancy occurring. You could have a long dryspell of no alien ship appearances, and then suddenly one night your sim is going into the clouds. MCCC opens up new opportunities that I am taking advantage of. What is fun is I started a new save with Island Living (I really need a blueprint save with my favorite custom venues already in place), and after one Aliens Night at the bar, I suddenly had aliens wandering around Sulani. Made me so happy. I love aliens and vampires, and the thought of both on a tropical island is just fun!
  • Im getting bored of the game with my male sim getting pregnant from aliens. I was hoping to have a decent game played but the hint that told us to build a satellite and keep pushing to prevent alien abduction is also tiresome. We need a cheat to prevent male pregnancy or just take the aliens out of the game play. Again, losing interest in it fast!!!
  • Wait can someone tell me the things that increase the chance of abduction? I think it's Scientist career and observatory activity. Is there something I'm missing?
  • @GlacierSnow Thank you! That was really helpful. I'll see if I can form an alien-sim brotherhood club and increase the chances.
    @Mia_bear Wow! Lucas is just a kid in the save file I'm playing in right now.

    I always find that my sim meeting about 5 to 8 Alien sims is a definite guarantee for my sim to be abducted by Aliens.
