Get to Work - My Dilemma

Ok guys i have been wanting GTW forever. I have been so hesitant because of the aliens. I have been trying to read up on the situation, and a lot of older threads, I’m not sure if they are relevant anymore since EA updated GTW and minimized the amount of aliens. It seems every lot on the gallery i want uses GTW items, and i really want them! I want everything about the expansion except aliens. I don’t want them in my gameplay at all. I have read about the settings in MCCC and the satellite dish. So what should I do? Is there a way to avoid or really lower the chances of aliens in this pack? What are your experiences?

I hardly ever see aliens in my game. If your sim happens to get pregnant from an abduction, you can send the kid(s) back to their homeworld when they're babies. The option disappears once they become toddlers, though.

It actually got the point where I had to send one of my aliens to Sixam to find an alien partner to marry because I couldn't find any the normal way.

You can also use MCCC to turn off alien nights at the bar if you want.

I think Get to Work is definitely worth the careers, build/buy/CAS, etc! It's one of my favorite packs. I know it's different for everyone, and that there are mods to disable aliens, but I've literally never noticed an alien besides at Alien Night at the bars haha. In years of playing the pack, no aliens! I say get the pack :)
I completely forgot they existed. Or do they exist............

Thanks for all the replies. I have read that turning off Alien Night only cancels the notification, but if you go to a bar on a Tuesday night, it is still happening...true?
