Can the sims interact in realtime?

If you're playing at the same time as a friend, can you both take your sims to the same place and have them interact with each other and both players see the same thing at the same time? Not like Sims Social where you could take your sim to meet other players sims but the other sim would be controlled like an NPC and the other player just finds out afterwards.

  • Question: if I like a friends Sim, and say I want to marry her and make her playable in my household, do I "steal" her from my friend? Or just create a copy?

    You steal her, she won't exist in her game anymore, but she does have an option to decline the offer

    Oh, gotcha. I won't do that then, thank you.
  • Even at parties the other players character is doing there own thing not player controlled etc.
  • You're right, guys. Sims are not controlled by players at parties.
    If you watch the trailer, you think it's real multiplayer.. but no

    MMO games usually don't require both players to be online at the same time. So it is only natural that the other players sims are controlled like NPCs.

    In my war games you usually can even attack another player unless this player is offline because otherwise he could want to build something while he was attacked. The problem is the same with Sims games. So the other player's sims at our parties are most likely just NPC copies of the the other player's real sims.
  • Some MMO games do require the players to be on at the same time. In those games, if the player isn't online, their character is not available to interact with nor can be seen in the game. TSO was like that, and also ATITD etc. I think Minecraft too.
  • Oh, really? I thought it's real multiplayer! :'(
    But why it can't be it? Can't EA create an online world?
