NightLife EGuide

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.the-sims (More info?)

I thought I was excited about NightLife coming out until I read the
EGuide...NOW I am excited!
This game looks to be totally awesome. I love how they have added the
attraction/chemistry element to the game. The more I read the more
impressed I became. All I can say is this puts TS2 over the top for
me...now if we only had spiral stairs....

PS...I recommend either getting the EGuide or the book itself to fully
appreciate all that has been given to you in the new game. Otherwise
you will miss a lot.

Yes, yes, yes....it has SO MUCH to be excited about! I love that you
can have group outings.
I love that they have given great motivations to do different things
through rewards...gifts or gaining a skill point or a promotion etc.
It's all good!


I thought the same thing when you said "It's made me as excited about
Sims 2 as when it came out".

Quoting from the guide:
If a Sim's date is employed at a highter level in the same career track
(above level 3), there's a chance that the date will pull some strings
and the sim will receive a promotion the next time he or she goes to
work. The chance of this happening rises with: The quality of the
date, The dated Sim's job level.

If a date involved dining at a restaurant, there's a chance that the
next day's mail will bring a coupon for a free mean at any restaurant.

After a date, your Sim may receive a skill level increase in one or
more skill. You may even be promoted more thatn one level in a single
skill.

Each time the Date Level increases to a new height (e.g. Good to
Great), there's a chance to get a point in each skill. Every time a
new level is reach, you get another opportunity to gain skill.


A successful date or outing produces "contacts" whic count toward the
number of friends needed for a job promotion.

>So a contact = friend? That's great

For a short time.... the amount of time is realted to how well the
outing/date was. Fun 24 hours, Super: 48 Hours, Rockin: 52 Hours

The skill thing is related to your dates skill levels. You get to ask
them "What Are Your Skills?" The Sim reveals his high-ranking skillin
in the following terms:
"I'm pretty good at...":skill 1-3
"I'm very good at...":skill 4-7
"I'm an expert at...":skill 8-10

If the asked Sim has no skills, he or she will say "I'm not really good
at anything yet." If the Sim is successful at multiple skills, they
will be listed. For example: "I'm very good at: Mechanical, Body."

Did you know that the surprise gift can be an expensive stereo or piano
if your date will really well? Now that's cool!

No kidding!
My game isn't scheduled to come until Friday or later. I preordered
from Walmart.com. I am so hoping it comes Friday or even
Saturday...you guys will be the first to know as no one here cares!
Not only don't they care, they don't even want to hear about it!
When are you looking to get yours?

What do you mean rewards, specifically? What rewards are there for
group outings? I've heard that your date gives you a gift the next
day, based on how it went. Loveletter, roses, bag of flaming poo, etc.
I thought that was what was meant... what other rewards are there for
dates and outings?

Oh yeah, I forgot that one! Wee! But they can only rise one level,
aye?

Hehe, I love all these cute little ideas... they add so much
atmosphere.

Woah :-D I wonder if the skills have any relevance with what you went
out to do.

So a contact = friend? That's great.

Yeah but still no mountainbike, maybe in the business pack, when
you can become one of those guys/girls who deliver packages on bikes. ;o)

Feeling your pain... mine won't ship until the 15th... I don't want to
order from a foreign site because they add tax and penalty toll and
the game ends up costing like twice as much. And it'll take 1-3 days
to get it in the mail probably :-(
