The Electronic Playground has some new details about the next addition to the worlds most popular gaming franchise. The Sims 3 is an upcoming strategic game for the Windows platform.
In the create-a-sim feature there are now more options to customize your sim so it can look exactly like you. This opens the door to creating completely unique Sims with regard to stature, height, weight, hair, and clothing. In other versions the Sims where all the same size. ![]()
Personality configuration for Sims has also been made more complex, with the original ‘percentage bar’-style personality points replaced by descriptions similar to those in the personals section of newspapers. In addition to this, individual fitness bars have been added to adjust the Sims weight and muscle. Sims now have the capacity to become extremely obese, or extremely muscular. This is in comparison to The Sims 2, where Sims simply had 3 levels of fitness/fatness. The player can now even choose their Sims favourites colour, music type, food, etc., an option not available in The Sims 2. Players have much more customization options like changing the Sims face shape body shape. If you make a fat sim if that person gets lots of exercise the sim will get much slimmer, that was not the case in the Sims 1 and 2. Arm and legs are separate so players can create Sims with fat bodies and thin arms. Players can choose specific Asian and African models as well. Clothes are also customizable from Create A Sim. Players can change the colour of a certain piece of clothes or use their own patterns; shoes are separate and players can also have their Sims go barefoot.
EA games has described little about the towards the building aspect of the Sims 3 but it is knowing that there will be a new function towards design in objects. A player can now place objects at a 45° angle instead of just 90°. Ceilings will be included in Sims 3, unlike its predecessors. Also, building tiles will be a lot smaller. This will allow greater flexibility when designing rooms; for example, it will be possible to build a lamp almost touching a sofa, or a TV facing the middle of a double bed.
EA revealed new game play experiences for The Sims 3, one of them being neighbourhood exploration. Players can have their sim explore the neighbourhood without any loading screens. This also means that the game is played in real time
Due to the lack of loading screens, it is possible to zoom in and out from a complete view of the neighbourhood to the inside of a house, a feature not technologically possible in previous The Sims games. Every building in a neighbourhood will be intractable, none will simply be there to improve aesthetics.
Neighbourhood creation tools have been confirmed to ship several weeks after launch, allowing users to not only create their own towns, but to download those made by others. Neighbourhoods may also be added in expansion packs.
