Married+kids in NL
gali:
I haven't yet installed the game (I can't give up yet my precious hacks and fixes, lol) - but all I read about is - dates, blind dates, MatchMaker, etc - in short, Batchleour's Neighbourhood.
Will somebody write about what you do with the married couples+kids you have - is it like going to Downtown, without all that "date" jazz? And if I want to match myself the sims - can I?
BTW, in the official guide is written that the more money you give to the matchmaker, the better match you get - it's all a matter of money.
nothingbutsims:
I created a family-oriented Sim and used the Matchmaker (and yes, paid her the max) for a blind date and she gave me a Sim who was also family-oriented and after a few dates, they had their dream date, got engaged, married and now have two kids. I was very happy too that my date wasn't one of the regular townies from the original TS2. She was new from NL, a bar maid or something.

I've actually been testing this with my Nigmos family... I'm practically playing Legacy for all the stuff I don't have anymore. Married people can go on a date with each other if they want--the date starts at home and can be moved to Downtown. I haven't checked nanny necessity because I have a teenager to watch the kids at the moment. You can take the whole family downtown for an outing, or just take everyone down to hang out, or even just take the parents down to hang out for awhile and get away from the sproglings. It's actually rather flexible. If you're married/joined and you scope room, no matter ill-matched the personalities are or how ill-matched the turn on/turn off sections are set, the spouse/partner of the scoping sim will always sparkle if that spouse/partner is there.
sara_dippity:
When I took out a married couple, I had them get in the car, go downtown, and then ask for a date. It went very well, and she gave him (he asked her) flowers. I imagine that if you didn't want to hire a nanny, you could have the whole family go downtown, and once there have the kids go do their own thing and have the couple go on a date. I guess if you have a toddler or infant you would need a nanny.

He he, well, I am relieved now! If I can take them all to spend good time together - it's OK by me.
BTW - what happens to the Community lots in the original neighbourhood? do they continue to be available?
