Can a guru please explain this to me? How in the world can a Sim drown while riding an Aqua Zip??

There have been real life occurrences of people going out on Jet Ski's only to lose control and drown. There was something that happened like that recently.

Well I hope they added animation for something like that. I really don't want my Sim to be zipping along on my Aquazip and BAM get a message I drowned...LOL This feels like a bad idea in the making.

Sounds interesting.

I assume they can fall off it and drown? I'm not sure I like this change but I can deal with it.

Its kinda cool. Adds a risk factor. Plus, drowning only happens when the sim is low on energy, so maybe that’s how aqua zip drowning works too

Trust me I like the risk factor because this game could use some surprises. I will, however, have a problem if there is no animation letting me know this is going to happen. I don't want to get a message saying your sim has drowned for no good reason.

So the aquazip could be considered dangerous now?

:naughty: Ghehehehehe

Anyways, I would appreciate a guru explaining what they mean by Sims can now drown while riding an Aquazip.

@SimGuruRomeo please explain since you are the one who wrote the patch notes.

The exclamation mark in the patch notes made me laugh. Only in the Sims is a new way to drown a cause for enthusiastic punctuation. :D

Right...LOL So much excitement around sim death.

Personally, I don't want any more ways for my beloved Sims to die!
