I just found out you can have quadruplets in the game. I had no idea. I don't have a mod for this either. I knew you could have twins, and triplets, but zomg, quadruplets?!


Also you can have an "insufferably tedious conversation" in the game.

Can a guru please confirm or deny this? Because I now you can place babies in bassinets using cheats.

Babies can also be merged into the household using manage households.

Well jeez guys, thanks for the belief -.-.

No, I didn't put the babies in there, I didn't even know you could do that. And no, they weren't merged in. I'm actually quite curious about this myself. It was weird. I thought by having the quadruplets that I'd get some sort of achievement (like you do with triplets) but I didn't get one. I also thought it could be a glitch, but I've never heard of someone having a glitch where they got an extra baby.

The mother of the quadruplets though was having some serious issues with her motives. It was exhausting trying to keep them up. Every couple of minutes her hunger, or bladder, or sleep was just crashing down. I was actually happy when she went to work because of it. I know for a fact that if the sim is having multiple babies that it multiplies the negatives on the motives, but I don't know how in the world she ended up with so was lucky to get that many kids. She just have the Family-Oriented trait though, but she doesn't have the Fertile reward.

I have been playing a Sim who is living on his own as a teen and has just barely managed to keep his head above water by gardening and collecting when he is not going to school. Imagine my surprise when he just donated $500!!!!!!! on his computer. He is an evil Sim not a good Sim!!! It cracked me up since he is obviously not worried about where the next dollar is coming from!!

You can have teens live by themselves? That's cool :3

Well, technically they are almost the same as an adult or young adult. I hope there will be something that will make teens different from adult, other than going to school etc..

Yep, you can create the teen and just move them into whatever lot you fancy. I haven't tested this yet but if you have MC Command center, you could age the sim to a YA, move them out, and then once they're in their lot, and you can play them, set them back to a teenager. You should also be able to do the same with CAS, using the cas.fulleditmode cheat.

(Don't know if this has been said already. I'm not looking through all these pages). I was unaware of how many romantic relationships there are in the game. I had found out that there was a "Just Good Friends" romantic status when my two sims were good friends, but had a little to almost no romance bar. They didn't do romantic stuff for awhile. I'm so used to having my sims be in love with each other from the get-go, I never stopped and tried to have a slow relationship. So, their romantic status is always "lovebirds" or "soulmates". Their romantic status depends on both friendship and romantic bars.

Some of my favorites are "Enemies with benefits" (which I really want to try one day!), "Hot and Cold", and "Awkward Friends".
(Wish I could share the site where I get this stuff from! Being a new member is annoying...)

there's also "it's very awkward" and "bad romance" and "it's complicated". they happen when you break up with someone but you're still friends i think. i think i went through all possible romantic relationships with one sim once lol but i can't remember all of them

There is also one for when there is red in the friendship bar but the romance bar is very high. I forget the name, mostly because I was busy trying to wrap my brain around having "Enemies with Benefits." Since it was with a townie I hadn't played, it definitely shows stuff goes on with sims that you are not active with. Apparently very interesting stuff.

does your adult sim have the childish trait? because my childish sim can play with the stuffed animal, but I wasn't sure if other sims can. haha didn't know you could use it as a punching bag

She does not have the childish trait. I didn't even think much of it until I had seen Uni in her relationship bar, with a bit of red already showing, when she hadn't even been in the same room as Uni, yet. Actually kinda reminds me of Pepper's reaction to that giant stuffed animal Tony Stark had bought for her in Iron Man 3.

I think it came in an update, I remember one of my Sims was a Teenager and I could start the game with just him.

Didn't see these so...
-When in build/buy you can move almost anything up or down with bb.moveobjects on using 9 & 0..something useful to consider when decorating!

-Sims can sing at the campfire and everyone will either boo or applaud.

-kids can stick their fingers in the fountain (from the new game)

-spouses come to the hospital if their partner is in labor while their at work! :)

- If you make coffee before breakfast they will usually always swipe a cup of coffee to go with their food.

-Elders get exhausted quick and die very easily! So watch them close!!

-You can live in your shops..I've built an apartment above the store and my sim lives there..She pays the bills from the notification and everything it's awesome!

-Sometimes at night you can hear cats meow and dogs bark! (hint of pets?)

-Sometimes my sims laugh neurotically in their sleep..it's kinda creepy.

-While on vacation try not to use that nasty bathroom! Ickyyyy! My sims almost always are sick afterwards...

-Again while on vacation, have your parents go on a hike with the kids! Kinda cute..and scenic. :)

-You can have 5 outfits for each category..and they'll all keep your makeup and nails! Nice touch ea..nice touch!

-the new halfwalls they put out today can hold drinks and plants! It's kinda cool..and they fit really well in the kitchen compared to the old games, sims 2 and 3...

-I can't go back to sims 3 or 2 because of the fact I miss the simplicity of building and the multitasking! :disappointed:

-Sims get cute little birth certs if born at the hospital! (My favorite thing so far about GTW)

If your sims are getting married and you have another person in your household, you can click on either the bride or groom and cheer, boo, or if they have had a relationship with the bride or groom, you can send a flirty text. (can't remember the exact wording since I haven't played in awhile) Cheering gives a confident moodlet to the bride/groom, booing gives sad moodlet to the bride/groom, and I can't remember what happens after flirty text. The flirty text made me laugh.
