group activities and relationships

I don't think it will do a lot, unless they specifically interact.

It is the same with the Club system - it doesn't automatically create gains.

It does increase their relationships. I have a similar situation with some of the kids living with Mom and some of them living with Dad. They have a homework club and a family fun club where they play together.

I haven't done clubs, is that only with get together, I don't have that one? and do you have to form the club every time like with groups?

Clubs are great - they are like automatic Groups that have a ton of customisation - ie you can set them up whereby the Sims have various activities they will favour - dancing, listening to music, cooking, cleaning, etc, etc, You can have like up to 6 activities that they do and even have activities that they are banned from doing - like being mean to each other; however, you can put in exceptions. Tons and tons of customisations for Clubs.

Get Together is so worth it, just for Clubs.

Yes, @plopppo2, is correct. I automatically thought club when you were asking about groups.

Homework as a group activity is actually pretty good even without a GT club (form a group, then do HW together). Dancing works pretty well too, but you may need GT even if you don't need a club. I've also found Don't Wake the Llama and cards are ok as well. Haven't actually paid much attention to video gaming from CL in this regard, but I'll try to remember to watch next time I game - my current set of Sims mostly aren't gamers. My Sims are rarely into gaming - it's an activity that's fun in RL but hard to watch my Sims do.

In one save my Sim had a few children with more then one woman. When the kid reached child age I created a club so they could all come over and spend the weekend with their dad. I too wanted to know how well that worked. So I went and checked how well they were in the relationship panel and they all had different levels, but it would increase. I did have the activities set for them to interact with each other and I did also have my sim converse with all of them at the same time.

Yeah if you don't have it, I suggest you get it even if it is just for the club system. Forming a club is far more beneficial your game then forming group. Clubs once you create it and add the members you don't have to keep doing so. Groups you do. Also if you don't have Get to work I would suggest that one as well. Get to Work and dine out would work very well together in your own game.

I do have get to work, why do you say it works well with dine out?
