THE HORROR: The REAL TS3 Scoop As It Unfolds

<< < (226/420) > >>

Insanity Prelude:
One of the tips on the loading screens mentions being careful about hired help, because some of them don't do their jobs properly. Maids as the new nannies is apparently a feature.

On that note, I like that grumpy Sims have the option to troll forums, and the robofish is pretty cool. Note to self: Have Jocasta fish for a bit after she harvests the Omniplant.

Edit after looking at the rest of Zazazu's screens: I didn't even think of using the sprinkler on plants! I thought it was for kids to play in. Oops.

I'm not understanding how the Maid-as-Nanny feature works. I've just been calling a babysitter every time my Sim heads off and leaves her kid. If I were to leave the baby and the Maid alone, would the Maid play the part of Nanny? Is that how this works?

I think he/she was refering to how Nannies sucked in TS2, in terms that they sometimes do the most ridiculous things, as well as them not doing their job.

Insanity Prelude:
Yep, that's what I meant. Fail Maids are fail.

vagabondher:
I see now! And I completely agree, nannies were just a big annoyance for me. The maid in this version left for the day while a dirty plate sat next to the door. The babysitter has yet to do something to piss me off, but is it wrong that I'm disappointed they're all teenagers and therefore off-limits for flirting with the dad while the mom's at work? Ahem.  ;)
