New survey on official BBS

Hook:
Considering Sims 2 is such a people game, I suspect personnel management will be a big factor.  I'm hoping for stuff like supply and demand, competitors (can I invite a successful competitor over for a swim?? :D ), advertising, business loans, all the good stuff.  Probably more than most people will ever want to mess with.

Oooh. Must . . . resist . . . lure . . . of . . . tycoon game!

Argh. I have a weakness for tycoon type simulations. Building stuff and making obscene amounts of virtual cash. I actually don't really like that kind of game, but I can never resist them. I sure hope though that they play up the crafting angle. Allow user input into the craftifying. Whee! Customized robots! With FLAMETHROWERS!

Hook:
I suspect crafting and personnel management will be as far as it goes.

I'd like to be able to see the following "event card", similar to the ones school kids get:

"Your contrarian stance to marketing has won you an interview with the city's largest newspaper.  This was published as a full two-page spread in the Sunday editiion.  This free promotion has an advertising value of approximately §1,000,000."

And yes, I've seen this in real life.  Wasn't me, darnit. :)

Gave them what, in my mind, are very good suggestions. Robots, more aliens, mutants, useful computers, roleplaying games. (Although I would rather fear a "roleplaying table," now that I see the compulsiveness that Maxis tends to give those sorts of objects.)


On the one hand, you've now given me the stupid hope that one day there might be mutant sims and I could finally make a complete Marvel Universe neighbourhood - they'd be too different (they'd have to be if only to avoid Marvel's utterly insane business partners), so I'm set up for inevitable disappointment.  On the other hand, if they do it and are cunning enough to make it moddable so copyright violation can be added in by a non-profiting third party, I'd have to give you my sister's firstborn or a kidney or something.

Je parle un peu du français. Je puis livre meilleur que je écrire, et je écrire meilleur que je parle. Je suis pas mal en général, mais je ne pratique pas autant que je voudrais. (Je regrette si le grammaire est mal. Je ne sais pas comment le dire exactement.)

Je aussi.
