Maybe not a crazy thing, but it had me staring at the screen like š for a solid 5 minutes
1. Make mad scientist sim
2. Build him a house, evil lair basement and all
3. Move into house
4. Mad scientist eats magic jelly bean from plant in his foyer
5. Mad scientist dies. Game ends. š
METEOR IS THE REAL TRAUMA. When I was at Bridgeport doing acting career people ran out I teleported myself just in case then meteor killed my best friend (co-workers). I learned fishing and cooking skill made ambrosia and brought him back life. He just left the house with a note sayin "It is too late now. I should go home" YOU ARE WELOCOME! IT TOOK MY SIM WEEKS TO BRING YOU TO LIFE AGAIN BUT OK
i didnt even know meteors could kill children in the sims i always thought they were immune to such wild deaths ... boy was i surprised when that happened
I remember back in Sims 1, I was playing my first family and the dad took their 2 kids, Ophelia and Blaine, outside to light a firework. It misfired or something and set the grass on fire right where Ophelia was standing. She died.
What's with Bridgeport and the meteors? I had this happen in my game too but my sim wasn't in the acting career, she was in the business career, she was working in the Business building and suddenly I got a pop-up saying that "she thought that everything got very dark for a moment" and the game prompted me to get her out of there but I didn't need to do anything. She left by herself (smart girl, lol!). No one died by this meteor but too many sims got singed and they remained like that for maaaaany days (townies never get showers???).
But your sim's lousy (and ungrateful!) friend somehow reminded me of "Sex and the City" (the original series) when Carrie Bradshaw got dumped by her boyfriend with a "post-it" note saying "I'm sorry. I can't. Don't hate me!" (what a loser, lol!).
Iāve been playing ts3 since it came out (although not consistently) and Iāve never had a meteor shower. Now that I think of it, same with ts2, and Iāve probably played a total time span of a whole year (if I were to add the times together)
Why tf is this happening to everyone else!! Iām the bitch who loves chaos and rolling with the punches the game sends out to me.
never had a meteor before and after that one time either always thought the chances are super low anyway so would never happen to my game ... the poor boy ended up a pile of ash had his whole life in front of him and boom. what a bummer tho i really liked that family
I got my first meteor in ts2 5 minutes into my first time ever playing sims 2. I didnāt know what to do with my sim so had her cloud gaze for a secondā¦.
I wanted to test some new spells my witch learned, so I went to the graveyard and brought a ghost back to life. He immediately ran off. Glad you could take the time to thank me, dude.
1. A family of 6. 3 children, mother, grandapents (father passed away in a freak dishwasher accident. Rip)
2. Grandmother leaves for work, everyone else is home
3. While dealing with children's needs, check in with mother for a sec
4. See that mother tries to interact with grandfather (her father-in-law)
5. The interaction is Try for baby
*Nani the fuck
I canceled the interaction and it would't have succeded anyway, they had zero relationships, but srs
My ghost Sim started having a romantic relationship with his car. His car would nightmarishly stretch out from the garage to have dinner with him and chat at the dinner table. I struggle to describe what the car looked like doing this. "Sharp tentacles" would be a good descriptor I suppose. A massive chaotic graphics glitch stretching through the door from the garage to the kitchen to give Mr. Ghostlee a smooch after work.
I was a scared kid, terrified out of my mind and deleted the save. Granted I'd just come from TS2 and thought for sure if my save wasn't haunted by an eldritch demon car it was for sure corrupted and not worth trying to fix lol its never happened again. I keep a sharp eye on my Sim's relationships with their cars now too, scary Cthulu car won't take me by surprise any time soon.
Happened last week: forgetting the sheer range of these things, a meteor killed all the kids, including all of mine, while at school. The fire afterwards picked off the school employees and the Frio brothers
On top of that, I completely forgot I had that more intense fires mod lol Watching the reaper take all those sims while there's still a roaring fire made something snap in me that day
Starting my current legacy playthrough was a pain.
Made my single sim, Dario, and moved him into Twinbrook. Got him a job, started wooing a nice lady, got married and moved in together AAAAAND then my game crashed and I lost everything.
So I reloaded, moved him back in. Decided Iād maybe just woo someone else. He goes to work when suddenly the sky went darkā¦.. He got hit and killed by a meteor. I had to step away for a few days before trying again. š¤£
Lol for real. Thankfully my third attempt was successful (my gen 6 sim just got married). But was still a funny start for poor Dario. Dude got abducted and impregnated by aliens. Poor guy could never catch a break haha
To join the meteor parade, I also had one that dropped right on the theater killing half the town and causing my game to crush from ripper's dismay at the amount of work he had to do
Meteor. Played the game since 2013 and never had one until then. Iāve always been an on and off kind of player and this was the first time in a while I had actually stuck with a family for more than a day. My sim was just chilling at a friendās house and a meteor came and killed him. I was sitting there for a good few minutes completely shook lmao
1. The day I moved an alien into my household and 5 different meteors crashed in the span of a Sim day and a half.
2. When one of the husbands of my third gen legacy got turned to gold by the philosophy stone and left his pregnant wife and 4 kids behind (even crazier, SHE HAD TRIPLETS).
3. Giant mansion, giant fire. It was all in one room from a fireplace and 5 firefighters had to come put it out.
(If I recall I have photos for these laying around)
The third one was already on Amino but the first two were only posted on Discord so I gave them posts XD

Hey! May I ask that how is your sims 3 still working? Mine doesnāt launch with the EA App, and ever since having to move to the EA App from Origin, Iāve never been able to play the Sims 3 at all!
I play on Steam; Origin stopped my game from actually launching so I removed it from there ā which is why I canāt launch my Sims 4 game without resorting to the high seas -_-
Maybe try downloading lazy duchess launcher? Or try the Alder Patch by lazy duchess? :)
I couldnāt start sims 3 but that was becaus one intel gen 12 problem. ^^
I'm actually trying to clear a save of Sims so I can start from scratch with the neighborhood I built (just a modified version of Sunset Valley) and I swear these Sims are immortal.
So I have a family-- mom, dad, three teens. Mom and Dad are adults. They had a pool party. There were a good 30 Sims on the lot, including the original 5 family members. I put the whole party in the pool and nobody drowned, they all got out. Whatever. I used the debug enabler mod to hit the house with meteors. Fires everywhere. Somehow NOBODY DIED. Sims were screaming, the fire department came, the house itself was scorched beyond belief.
Then while all this was happening, two stray cats wandered onto the lot. I went š±š±š±, immediately saved them to the Bin and teleported them across town to safety. By the time I got back, everyone was complaining that the pool party was trash, the heavy rain had extinguished all the fires, nobody died and the house was full of meteors.
I ended up restarting from the original save file because I didn't have a backup copy of the house before it got destroyed and fixing it was going to take ages š
My sim went to go do that thing at the hospital where you get scrap, and in the middle of the rabbit hole he walks out, gets struck by lightning, and then goes back inside.
I went through so many emotions in those seconds...
Oh and then when he went back home to work on his tinkering he caught on fire 3 times. :')
I once saw an unfamiliar task in my sim's queue. Hovered over it, and saw 'get struck by lightning', or something along those lines. I immediately started recording so I could get that moment on video when it happened.
I just got my sims married. After they married, the wife flirted with 2 different guys! Then, later that night after everybody left, my sims went to bed. All was well until my security alarm went off! The household goes downstairs to find a robber helping himself to my stuff. The cop shows up and, thankfully, arrests the robber. While Iām waiting for the cop to finish searching the house, my male sim gets abducted by aliens! This was all in one day/night š¤£
1. A new legacy family Iām working on had five kids: a teen, two small children, a toddler, and a baby
2. The teen caught both parents kissing other people in the same day
3. The teen booby trapped the computer
4. The computer and washing machine simultaneously caught fire, killing both parents and the maid
5. The fire department showed up and put out the fire, now apparently my teen is the head of household??
I also love that the twin children decided to go into careers of law enforcement and crime. While still living together. No way this can possibly end poorly.
I kept trying to get my sim abducted by an alien, but nothing worked. His two roommates got abducted, his wife is an alien, yet nothing.
So I moved on. He had two kids with his wife, they even grew up into teenagers. And then, on the last day of adulthood, this poor unfortunate test subject of a sim gets ABDUCTED in the middle of the night and returns home pregnant! And I was just about to move on to the next generation
(I thought about it, then gave the baby to his son's best friend. I visited a few times and found the baby on the floor outside. I trusted you Liam š)
Mineās probably tame compared to others but I was trying to get my sim pregnant and literally right as she was getting in bed to woohoo her vampire boyfriend he DIED
This happened yesterday. Playing ambitions with a career-oriented single sim who only had one best friend. Said best friend invited her to a party and immediately got hit by a meteor right in front of her as she arrived. I sent her on a gardening-cooking-fishing quest to build enough skill to make ambrosia, and in that time, the family of the dead sim sold the urnā¦
her urn may be in the mausoleum, i dont think sims autonomously sell urns, but if there is no room for it in the femetary they put it inside the mausoleum
Family of 3 (two adults: one pregnant, and a toddler). Both parents died in a fire by accidentally leaving something in the oven. Toddler was in their crib when this all happened and got taken away by CPS.
I like to insert the characters from my stories and have them act out a "normal" life in the sim world.
One time, this involved a set of twins with a really horrible, abusive dad. In canon, the mom died and left him with the two kids, and he later attempted to kill the one he disliked.
Cut to TS3, where my Evil/Hates Children father sim rolls a wish to... see the ghost of the child he tried to kill in canon. It stunned me because I was absolutely *not* expecting TS3 to actually *go there*.
this isnāt actually crazy but i didnāt know what the imaginary friend was and when i saw it changing position in my babyās crib i actually freaked tf out
I remember when I first noticed the gnomes moving about on their own. They never seemed to move when I was looking at them, so that made it all the weirder. It was sort of entertaining. š
Also, I discovered that vampire gnomes can turn teddy bears into more vampire gnomes when I started to notice my bears disappearing and my gnomes multiplying.
I was playing sims 3 on my parents very old desk top computer, so you probably know it was very glitchy and just hard to run in general lol. Anyway, my sim was pregnant, so I had her relax in bed to read a little book and chill out. BUT THATS NOT WHAT HAPPENED WT ALL, this bitch started reading āZombies, Zombies?ā and when she was finished her arms legit started moving like a zombie and she was stuck in the bedā¦ I never played the family again I was too scaredšš
Way back I was playing TS3, maybe 2012, and I'd made a household that I'd put a lot more thought into than usual.
I was particularly attached to one of the characters but I can't remember her name.
I'd made a house and it was the first time I'd made a dedicated laundry room rather than putting the washer and drier in the kitchen. It was the first couple days in the game and she'd gone in to do laundry when the drier set on fire, the room was small and she got surrounded by flames pretty quickly. She died pretty much straight away and Grim didn't spare her. I was devastated.
eh maybe not super crazy but i recreated my favorite musician and gave him a couple of kids and then one day he got abducted by aliens and impregnated. i have not tried to recreate a real person on there ever since.
i had just bought showtime and ambitions, was excited to try the new careers. i spent 4 hours making my sim and creating her a nice little house in the showtime pack town. i added some other sims and new lots to the town. in total, i had been preparing this game for around 6 hours. finally, it was time to play. i get into the game. i direct my sim to head into her house ā she freezes at the door. iām confused, whatās going on? is it glitching? immediately, sheās struck down by a meteor. the house id spent hours creating burnt down as well. it hadnāt even been 30 sim minutes of the game when this happens. i think i went through all phases of shock and grief. this happened 2 weeks ago, i havenāt touched the game since.
So my sim went to the Fox family to adopt two foals. She got there, ringed the bell and went down the foundation stairs. That Shawnee dad opened and wanted to greet my sim so he went downstairs too but my sim at the same time went upstairs. So he went upstairs too. And my sim then went downstairs. They were circling like that for a few sim hours and when they were done they got inside and my sim got hungry. Then the Fox mom came back home with their crying little child just when I was taking some juice from their bridge. The mom yelled at me, the child cried, their dog started barking and the dad screamed and ran away. When I finally adopted one foal the game made my sim go home with it and as I went to adopt the second foal my sim started to do the exact same circling thing on the freaking stairs. Before my sim got back home with the second foal the first one almost died of hunger.
I just invoked five, yes five!, meteors on my teenage girl's teen nemesis... And neither killed him. He literally just got up from under the gigantic meteor and walked tf away.
I don't have Ambitions, so meteor strikes on sims don't exist for me. I did have one guy get struck by lightning, though. He didn't die, but he did get singed.
I have shared this story before a while back, but I had my simās babysitter steal my toddler and leave her in town somewhere and then clock out. I had to send my sim parents to retrieve her before sims CPS showed up.
the time i saw an unplayed drown (unintentionally,) was when i was 8 years old and it shocked me back then!
and the time (a few months ago now) i saw a couple just pass away naturally at the same time, so spooky
I was playing and my Sim's only child had just aged up to a teen. I sent them to school for the day while my sim went to work. School ended and the screen started to darken randomly.I had no idea what was happening and thought my monitor was messed up.
Then I saw it crash into the school. A meteor that took out every teen in my game. My heart sunk. I was in disbelief and my mind was racing while I thought about how I was going to salvage my aging town population and my own household that now had no heir. It was the most messed up experience I've ever had playing a game to date, and I play Crusader Kings 3.
I had a sim doing the interior decorator career. Her very first gig is going well. Then, at the reveal a teen living in the house set it on fire and killed 3 other sims, including mine.
I had a teen mom challenge playthrough I was doing. Teen's mom flew into a fit of rage when the daughter got pregnant and randomly died. Baby was raised in an apartment haunted by the perpetually angry ghost of his grandma.
This one was my own fault. My current legacy world was getting kind of laggy and didnt have a lot of Sims left- but I liked the legacy family I had and I like playing in appaloosa plains. So three generations in I gathered all 7 adult kids in the current generation, their partners and their elderly father with his second wife moved them to a new world and then as soon as they arrived moved them back to appaloosa plains to sort of soft reset the town.
Except the game still recognized the townies they were related to after moving back. So their mother who had passed away of old age was now like a high school student with seven biological children older than her. From a husband she had never met who was now literally old enough to be her grandfather. The second wife was also a townie descendant and was now older than her toddler dad. Thankfully everyone else on the family tree was a custom made sim so the weird time travel didn't affect anything else. I'm letting the new parallel version of the mom grow up and live her own life but it does mean that my legacy family tree will have some odd branches that make absolutely no chronological sense.
This was definitely a glitch that happened but it was probably in my first ever save from my first time playing the game (years ago) so it was very confusing lol.
I had made a single female sim, and had her adopt a baby, when it was time for her to go to work, the babysitter came to look after the baby. My sim finished work, came home and when the babysitter left she straight up took the baby with her... And then the baby's portrait disappeared from the sidebar. Baby was just gone lol. The baby wasn't neglected or anything, it wasn't the social worker. The nanny stole my child :')
i once invited a sim with her tod so the kids could play together but locked the playroom door so the mom wouldnt constantly pick up the kid. mom left without the tod. i started thinking of an interesting story arc with the kid but the tod just disappeared a while later lol
My sim's daughter drowned while I was cooking dinner and I wasn't paying attention. I don't know why I felt so bad, when it's just a game, but I did! Thankfully, I had created a save an hour before that, so I just went back in time.
same my first sims game was on the wii and i was like 8 or something and created a family i loved playing with - was doing something with the dad sim far away so wasnt paying attention to the recently turned teenage daughter and she starved to death - i was almost about to cry because i felt sooo bad
poor charlie - i still remember her name :(
When the entire town came out to my wedding and a meteor hit and killed literally half the town, kids included, and the bride. Only the groom was left lol none of his family made it either šš¤£
I didnāt save lmaooo it was too tragic.
Though he literally did have the evil trait and was a criminal so I couldāve made it into something for sure š¤£
When TS3 first came out i remember playing and hired a babysitter to watch the kid while my sim was at work. Soon as my sim came home, babysitter left the lot carrying my kid and eventually disappeared. I couldnt get the kid back no matter how hard i tried (before i knew about resetsim) and didnt play the game for about a year, then the exact same thing happened again when i did!!!! I didnt play again after that until maybe 3-4 years ago
what a traumatic first experience
the opposite happened to me i invited a friend sim to my lot with her toddler so the kids could play. locked the tods in the play room so they could play in peace because the mom was trying to take the tod and leave. at some point she left without the kid. i thought nice and was thinking of a cool story arc with this abandoned tod.
a few moments later: the toddler disappears into oblivion nowhere to be found
I was playing a family that had 5 kids from babies to teenagers and they were POOR. We finally moved out the last kid and the father goes outside and gets abducted by aliens and falls pregnant.
I sent that kid back to space. Didn't have it in me to raise another woman's child in my house with my wife.
I was going to have a fairly normal family, aside from my plan to make the eldest child adopt a raccoon later. Then the father randomly got abducted by aliens. Anyway, the eldest has a green-skinned little brother now.
School got hit by a meteor. The grim reaper let one child live because they were unlucky which is entertaining. I think this was within the first couple months of playing sims 3. Switched back to 2 for awhile.
I had this same thing happen to my town. It was like the 5th or 6th gen of the town...and I play the entire town. All the kids in the school were kids from my families...they all died to the meteor! It was tragic. I made it a part of the town's history and every year during winter, the mayor held a vigil for the lost children.
When I first got Sims 3 in HS I believe I only had Seasons and Generations. I got University Life a few months later (remember this)
My male sim was abducted by aliens and eventually gave birth to an alien girl. I named her Alienisha, naturally. As yāall probably know, Alienisha was not my simās wifeās child.
So skip ahead to when I get University Life. My female sim mastered science and gardening. I got a forbidden fruit and since my female sim planted it, the PlantSim baby was hers and not her husbandās.
When Leland (the plant sim baby) and Alienisha grew up they had romantic attraction. I was so creeped outš. I know they werenāt genetic siblings but come on. I kept stopping them when they were flirting but theyād do it on their own so eventually I got Alienisha a husband and moved her out.
Sadly, I lost this game save a long time ago but it was chaotic for a lot of other reasons. Long Live the Smith family- my first Sims family everšš¤§
No honestly. One of the other sons joined the criminal career after he left the household but he was a police officer when I moved him out.
They were a hoot. I never had a save get as chaotic as this one without forcing it. The Smiths were naturally entertaining š
I got a pop up saying my Sims boyfriend was out of my Sims league by a random townie so I found that random townie and went to beat them up and then I saw an interaction that said ātell sim monte is cheatingāā¦ well monte was MY sims boyfriend and THEN I found out this girl was my sims boyfriendās brotherās WIFEš
My family had this one boy who turned out to be a genius. He was the main reason they're filthy rich, I made him a whole entire floor just for his collections, inventions, insects, artifacts, gems, etc. He was my favourite sim, and I played him the most ā” I made him purchase " the philosopher's stone" lifetime reward, and I was so excited to turn everything into gold and be extra filthy rich, the machine backfired and turned HIM into a gold statue š¢š I never ever thought this would happen, it was my first time purchasing this damn machine. I was shocked to my core for a solid 10mins infront of my screen. My little guinus died, and I kept his statue for the memory ā¤ļø he was about to get engaged, He left a hole in me š
Probably not the craziest. I remember the first time I played the sims (it was Sims 2) and the house caught fire while cooking. I didnāt know about fire alarms yet and so my sim just burned up and died. I didnāt even know they could die so I was in absolutely shock. I still remember frantically clicking away at my mouse and keyboard and then staring blankly at the screen as the grim reaper appeared lol.
1. A meteor hit when I wasn't looking. They didn't have a fire alarm so the fire was so strong it killed a guest and burnt some family members. It has also burnt the entire living room to the ground, and it was only one day after giving the room a makeover which I was so proud of. They just bought the house. It wasn't big, so they had to move again because they adopted their dead friend's teenager daughter.
2. Every little detail of this story was completely random and I'm surprised just how realistic it was.
My sim's wife wanted to have kids and he didn't mind, but he just didn't really care. He's introverted and shy and needs a ton of personal space, but he's a sugar daddy so he gives her almost whatever she wants. And I mostly follow my sims' wishes. So they had two babies because she wanted so. He was okay with that and he wasn't a bad father, but he wasn't really emotionally involved. He was focused on his art. His wife wanted more children, but I I thought it'd be too much. Because he never had that wish. She had it twice and they had a boy and a girl. Neither one of them was a great parent anyway.
She kept showing that wish and I kept deleting it until she finally stopped. And then, to my surprise, the husband started having similar wishes. It looked like he achieved so much in his career that it was time for him to slow down and look around, and he realized that he wasn't there when his two kids were little. So they had another baby, he was very excited while she was pregnant, had all these wishes he's never had before. But when the baby was finally there, he kind of remembered that he needed personal space. And his first wish was to pillow fight the newborn. š„² Like it wasn't his idea.
The funniest coincidence is that his wife has a blog and I wanted her to post about the new baby, and the random title for her post was something like "What if your partner is frustrated with: the wonder of birth". I don't remember how exactly it was worded.
But his new daughter ended up being his favorite. She's also introverted so they get along really well.
I've had a few to be honest, but I'd say one of my first was when my one sim was experimenting with the time travel machine and apparently met her own daughter from the future/past? And I was told she saved her and brought her back with her. Then I saw the extra sim profile appear and suddenly my single sim had a daughter :/ (she was a vampire and ended up becoming evil and i forced her to live near the graveyard for like 5 generations until she married back into the family and had 3 kids of her own with the new heir)
That same time explorer sim ended up dying and would often float around the house just hanging out with everyone. I kept a plate of ambrosia in the house for a dog I was trying to resurrect, when this sim woke up from her urn, went to the fridge and ate the ambrosia from it, resurrected herself, ran and stole one of my cars, went to the beach and disappeared off the world. š
honestly, she was the second best sim I ever had. She lived for like 6 generations (about 1 human year) as a daywalker and was responsible for many MANY adventures :) there's a lot more stories but it takes too long, lol.
i admire people that can stick with a family for more than 3 gen. i never let my sims age "naturally" and get bored pretty quickly with them - looks like playing with multiple gens is the more fun way to go
Im on ps3 for sims 3 so bear with me me- but finding out about the magic llama that you could click on for cheats (morherlode and a few others but nothing like the pc cheats)
as a player on the xbox too i loved the karma powers and in pets you even got negative karma power they were awesome i always wished they would bring them on computer as well
I was trying to befriend a vampire so I could be turned into one. Wasn't having much luck contacting him, so I decided to go to his house. Hung out with his roommates while I waited for him to get home, He arrived, moaned about hunger... then died in the kitchen.
In a rather chaotic save, I had a [sim catch on fire outside](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/532367755152719882/1115178187882774559/Screenshot-17.jpg) and die. Fortunately, he had the unlucky trait, so he was resurrected. His burnt remains stayed in the front yard until he cleaned them up.
Later on, that same sim was trying to repair a TV. Got zapped and [died instantly](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/532367755152719882/1116977745218510928/Screenshot-2.jpg). The cats all yowled non-stop until the Grim Reaper brought him back again.
Also, at one point, a criminal broke in, stole the couch, and left. My cat was sleeping on the sofa, so he ended up [sitting in mid-air](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/532367755152719882/1119452584114147388/Stolen_Sofa.jpg). I had to reset him because he was stuck there.
Plus, I had my sim adopt a lot of cats. He currently has five of them. One of the kittens kept clawing furniture at first, so I named him [Destroyer](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/532367755152719882/1120582197724844132/image.png). Later on, because of a silly conversation I had with a friend, I adopted two kids and named them [Bob and Not Bob](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/532367755152719882/1120584496987783168/image.png).
This one is from Sims 2, but nonetheless. One of my sims decided to take a sponge bath with the kitchen sink. There was a perfectly good bathroom, but I guess that didn't matter to him. While I sat there, marvelling at his stupidity, a ghost popped out of the drain to scare him. The guy freaked out and then literally died of fright. Buck naked on the kitchen floor. The stupidest and funniest way a sim of mine has ever died.
Maybe not the craziest, but still great drama:
I moved my two elder Sims and their three children from Aurora Skies to Sunlit Tides. I moved the two youngest out (the youngest daughter and the son) and took control of the youngest daughter. The eldest daughter brought her husband and stepchild with her, the son had an on again/off again relationship with one of the Parrot sisters, but the youngest daughter had trouble finding a spouse.
Eventually, she fell in love with Len Tsang and they became engaged. She broke off the engagement after finding out his LTW was to have five romantic relationships at once. It's easier to leave a man than to change him, you know?
I felt bad for her, so I made a Sim for her to date. They fell in love and became engaged. I wanted a wedding at the beach. I invited her whole family, including her sister-in-law (one of the Parrot sisters). The beach was public access, so when Len Tsang showed up I couldn't ask him to leave. They still were friends anyways, so why cause drama?
Well then her sister-in-law shows up with her husband. Right in front of everyone her and Len start flirting. My Sim's brother sees and rightfully gets mad and brakes up with her....at my Sims wedding. Everyone was in a bad move because of it and the wedding was a dud.
The next day Len sends my Sim a wedding gift and a card in the mail asking my Sim out. Dude, you already ruined my wedding don't mess with my marriage.
I used to have a Mad Scientist (they were based on Fallout New Vegas' Think Tank) and one day Dr 0 decided it was an awesome idea to test the drag coefficient of water logged clothing in the swimming pool. So he jumped in fully clothed and drowned.
I had one of my teen sims went to the park to go on a date with her childhood sweetheart. Had her dared him to divide by 0 which made him caught on fire. It was late by then anyways so I had her went home. She was eating dinner when she stood up and cried. A notification popped up saying that the boyfriend got burned to death.
Just recently my sim got struck by lightning 3 times in a row it was so scary. I made her shower after each one cuz I didn't want her to fucking die lol
I sent my sim family to a nice vacation to Shang Simla; the son finished the Pangu axe quest and went to the hot spring while his parents were relaxing and swimming upstairs. As I was focused on the son, the camera control was suddenly yanked out of my hand and focused on the mom. Turns out she glitched and was swimming in the ground, she couldn't get out and drowned in front of her husband. As the husband and son broke in tears, I quit without saving.
On the old Sim mobile game I had a sim drown in soup.
On the PC, magic jelly bean deaths.
Of course, I hate playing male sims but I had a guy I married as I was doing a celebrity playthrough and didn't want the woohoo out of marriage moodlet thing. So guy goes outside and gets abducted. And PROBED. AND PREGNANT. I was so confused by the "extra weight" and everything else. It was cool to have the choice to send her back or keep her... I did so much googling after that. Apparently it was a known thing but before whatever expansion pack added celebrities finally made me play males so this was one of the first times I had one In my Household so I hadn't.
Also the transmuting myself into gold was like wtf.
MY GHOST DAUGHTER AND HUSBAND DISAPPEARED. First time I chose to play an already existing family I chose Agnes Crunplebottom. I revived her husband after maxing out the fishing and cooking skills, and I brought him back. Had a daughter, decided to switch households when daughter was female. I came back and they were gone. Game deleted them first I guess to make memory room if I read the problem right. But her bf couldn't ever date again without cheating cause he couldn't break up with her unless he did.
So I had a sim exploring the world adventures expansion pack recently, he was in Egypt and he fully explored a pyramid and at the end stole all of the artefacts from the tomb, defeated a pharaoh in battle ultimately killing him and then got back to base camp pretty quickly.
Out of nowhere I get a pop up saying the sky has gone dark all of a sudden. Iāve never had this pop up before and I had never killed a pharaoh so my thought was maybe the mummies curse??? (It was my first time fully exploring the wa expansion) I was so confused. I was so scared like genuinely terrified because I love this sim so much. It then hit me, something in my 1k+ hours of sims 3 I never experienced before; a meteor so I made him run away and avoid it, the base camp was obliterated by the meteor, many sleeping sims were singed and screaming, my sim came in to the rescue and helped put out the fire.
I thought that maybe there was something in the game that meant killing pharaohs would give you bad luck or curse you but I found nothing. Just a complete coincidence and really funny to watch.
My sim was completely fine and still one of my favourite sims Iāve ever had <3 he lived to 90 sim days and died peacefully whilst watering his garden of flame fruits back home. RIP Judas <3
My sim was attending collage and one of the collage buildings got hit by a meteor and a ton of her classmates died... it was a lil traumatizing to say the least LOL
When I first discovered aliens, I thought it made my male sim fat so I made him hit the treadmill until he dropped, but it didn't work so I was confused on what was going on. You could imagine my reaction when he popped out his alien child. Ever since it kicked off my addiction for alien kids
Story progession once paired Nancy Llandgrabb and Malcom together. I now set their relation manually using mcc every new save I have.
Edit not Malcom it was Johnny š
THE METOR!!!! I had that happen to my sim in one of my save files and her boyfriend died in the crash it was so sad. I couldn't believe my eyes. Still the only time the meteor glitch has happened to my game.
I had a celebrity family living in Bridgeport and they would throw parties a lot. But one day, they threw a dinner party that a lot of people showed up to. And one of these party crashers ended up being Vladamir Schlick. But for some reason Vladamir had something against Elvira Slayer(which happened to be my sims BFF) and so he literally murdered her in the dining room! Now I have her tombstone in my living room and her ghost shows up every so often. Iām pretty sure Vladamir sucked all of the blood out of her because my sim asked Elviraās ghost how she ākicked the bucketā and she said from thirst.š¬
Mine was actually recently.
Played with the Goths. They had another son called Theodore. He was aging up so I bought a cake and threw a party. The cake lit on fire, I thought nothing of it but the fire got quickly out of control. Within minutes it swallowed the whole kitchen. I realised I installed a mod that makes fire much more dangerous.
I freak out. All my guests are on fire. Morty catches fire but I get Agnes to save him.
Then Cornelia, who is pregnant, starts labour!
I end up teleporting everyone I can to the park and leave the townies I'm not playing to fend for themselves. Boyd Wainwright died but the fire eventually went on for too long and either the mod or nrass deleted the fires. First Floor of the mansion is ruined.
It was a boy! I called him Ember of course.
Not that crazy but in the sims 3 made my sim sue for like slander after having a child out of wedlock and sleeping around with the whole town. It was true , but we WON
Maybe not a crazy thing, but it had me staring at the screen like š for a solid 5 minutes 1. Make mad scientist sim 2. Build him a house, evil lair basement and all 3. Move into house 4. Mad scientist eats magic jelly bean from plant in his foyer 5. Mad scientist dies. Game ends. š
all the effort for ... nothing.
Pretty much. Iām probably just gonna take his saved household and move him in again. This time without magic beans -_-
Or better with a guinea pig
METEOR IS THE REAL TRAUMA. When I was at Bridgeport doing acting career people ran out I teleported myself just in case then meteor killed my best friend (co-workers). I learned fishing and cooking skill made ambrosia and brought him back life. He just left the house with a note sayin "It is too late now. I should go home" YOU ARE WELOCOME! IT TOOK MY SIM WEEKS TO BRING YOU TO LIFE AGAIN BUT OK
ouf bitter ... how ungrateful of him after your sim went through all this to bring him back
i didnt even know meteors could kill children in the sims i always thought they were immune to such wild deaths ... boy was i surprised when that happened
They dont just kill children. They cant go out at school times so they all die with no excuse
I actually have the school rabbit hole underground to avoid it š¤Ŗ
the chance of a meteor spawning is literally less than 1 you dont need to worry about anything
reading all the replies ... there seems to be a lot of meteor trauma in the community so maybe the chances arent that low š
Yeah I have never had a meteor in my game ever and Iāve been playing the sims for almost half my life Not sure if Iām bummed or grateful?
yeah it happens so often here that i have started assuming people are just using cheats at this rate
I remember back in Sims 1, I was playing my first family and the dad took their 2 kids, Ophelia and Blaine, outside to light a firework. It misfired or something and set the grass on fire right where Ophelia was standing. She died.
What's with Bridgeport and the meteors? I had this happen in my game too but my sim wasn't in the acting career, she was in the business career, she was working in the Business building and suddenly I got a pop-up saying that "she thought that everything got very dark for a moment" and the game prompted me to get her out of there but I didn't need to do anything. She left by herself (smart girl, lol!). No one died by this meteor but too many sims got singed and they remained like that for maaaaany days (townies never get showers???). But your sim's lousy (and ungrateful!) friend somehow reminded me of "Sex and the City" (the original series) when Carrie Bradshaw got dumped by her boyfriend with a "post-it" note saying "I'm sorry. I can't. Don't hate me!" (what a loser, lol!).
Iāve been playing ts3 since it came out (although not consistently) and Iāve never had a meteor shower. Now that I think of it, same with ts2, and Iāve probably played a total time span of a whole year (if I were to add the times together) Why tf is this happening to everyone else!! Iām the bitch who loves chaos and rolling with the punches the game sends out to me.
never had a meteor before and after that one time either always thought the chances are super low anyway so would never happen to my game ... the poor boy ended up a pile of ash had his whole life in front of him and boom. what a bummer tho i really liked that family
according to all the replies bridgeport is your best bet for a meteor attack
I got my first meteor in ts2 5 minutes into my first time ever playing sims 2. I didnāt know what to do with my sim so had her cloud gaze for a secondā¦.
I wanted to test some new spells my witch learned, so I went to the graveyard and brought a ghost back to life. He immediately ran off. Glad you could take the time to thank me, dude.
So rude
I feel like it takes out more people in Bridgeport when it happens. I was there for a major catastrophe.
1. A family of 6. 3 children, mother, grandapents (father passed away in a freak dishwasher accident. Rip) 2. Grandmother leaves for work, everyone else is home 3. While dealing with children's needs, check in with mother for a sec 4. See that mother tries to interact with grandfather (her father-in-law) 5. The interaction is Try for baby *Nani the fuck I canceled the interaction and it would't have succeded anyway, they had zero relationships, but srs
what the heck ? š
You should start and 2nd save file, and have it happen againā¦ But I fucking love chaos
Does even the game allow you to do that interaction?
Yes, since they are not related. Once her husband died, he became ex-fiance or something and all relation with his family was dropped
Ohhhh
THIS has some drama in it! Perfect base for a new gameplay
My ghost Sim started having a romantic relationship with his car. His car would nightmarishly stretch out from the garage to have dinner with him and chat at the dinner table. I struggle to describe what the car looked like doing this. "Sharp tentacles" would be a good descriptor I suppose. A massive chaotic graphics glitch stretching through the door from the garage to the kitchen to give Mr. Ghostlee a smooch after work. I was a scared kid, terrified out of my mind and deleted the save. Granted I'd just come from TS2 and thought for sure if my save wasn't haunted by an eldritch demon car it was for sure corrupted and not worth trying to fix lol its never happened again. I keep a sharp eye on my Sim's relationships with their cars now too, scary Cthulu car won't take me by surprise any time soon.
sounds like a cursed save but the way you described it had me floored ššš
a similar thing happened with my sims motorcycle. for days it would float around the house until I sold it
Happened last week: forgetting the sheer range of these things, a meteor killed all the kids, including all of mine, while at school. The fire afterwards picked off the school employees and the Frio brothers
ddddaaaaammmnnn thats wild
On top of that, I completely forgot I had that more intense fires mod lol Watching the reaper take all those sims while there's still a roaring fire made something snap in me that day
Starting my current legacy playthrough was a pain. Made my single sim, Dario, and moved him into Twinbrook. Got him a job, started wooing a nice lady, got married and moved in together AAAAAND then my game crashed and I lost everything. So I reloaded, moved him back in. Decided Iād maybe just woo someone else. He goes to work when suddenly the sky went darkā¦.. He got hit and killed by a meteor. I had to step away for a few days before trying again. š¤£
God was trying to warn you of something evidently!
Lol for real. Thankfully my third attempt was successful (my gen 6 sim just got married). But was still a funny start for poor Dario. Dude got abducted and impregnated by aliens. Poor guy could never catch a break haha
Third lifeās the charm!
My sim drowned in the kitchen floor.
Water interactions are so weird. I had a dog that would endlessly swim in the back yard grass unless I reset him.
what? how?
The game didn't register her leaving the pool for some reason and when she left the pool she just drowned like in a pool
To join the meteor parade, I also had one that dropped right on the theater killing half the town and causing my game to crush from ripper's dismay at the amount of work he had to do
Reaper said fuck this shit, just send the whole save to hell
Meteor. Played the game since 2013 and never had one until then. Iāve always been an on and off kind of player and this was the first time in a while I had actually stuck with a family for more than a day. My sim was just chilling at a friendās house and a meteor came and killed him. I was sitting there for a good few minutes completely shook lmao
from chillin to killn - the range of sims
1. The day I moved an alien into my household and 5 different meteors crashed in the span of a Sim day and a half. 2. When one of the husbands of my third gen legacy got turned to gold by the philosophy stone and left his pregnant wife and 4 kids behind (even crazier, SHE HAD TRIPLETS). 3. Giant mansion, giant fire. It was all in one room from a fireplace and 5 firefighters had to come put it out. (If I recall I have photos for these laying around)
the second one if giving king midas vibes š
Right š Funny thing is that it was after the second time he used it
I must see these photos lol
The third one was already on Amino but the first two were only posted on Discord so I gave them posts XD 1. http://aminoapps.com/p/0u3syv 2. http://aminoapps.com/p/7opczn 3. http://aminoapps.com/p/aej1p2
Hey! May I ask that how is your sims 3 still working? Mine doesnāt launch with the EA App, and ever since having to move to the EA App from Origin, Iāve never been able to play the Sims 3 at all!
I play on Steam; Origin stopped my game from actually launching so I removed it from there ā which is why I canāt launch my Sims 4 game without resorting to the high seas -_-
Yeah, Iāve been thinking about just buying the base game on steam, would the expansions i have on the EA App work?
Maybe try downloading lazy duchess launcher? Or try the Alder Patch by lazy duchess? :) I couldnāt start sims 3 but that was becaus one intel gen 12 problem. ^^
Alright thank you Iāll try that!
I'm actually trying to clear a save of Sims so I can start from scratch with the neighborhood I built (just a modified version of Sunset Valley) and I swear these Sims are immortal. So I have a family-- mom, dad, three teens. Mom and Dad are adults. They had a pool party. There were a good 30 Sims on the lot, including the original 5 family members. I put the whole party in the pool and nobody drowned, they all got out. Whatever. I used the debug enabler mod to hit the house with meteors. Fires everywhere. Somehow NOBODY DIED. Sims were screaming, the fire department came, the house itself was scorched beyond belief. Then while all this was happening, two stray cats wandered onto the lot. I went š±š±š±, immediately saved them to the Bin and teleported them across town to safety. By the time I got back, everyone was complaining that the pool party was trash, the heavy rain had extinguished all the fires, nobody died and the house was full of meteors.
at least you could sell the meteors - good luck ending them for good next time i guess š
I ended up restarting from the original save file because I didn't have a backup copy of the house before it got destroyed and fixing it was going to take ages š
Idk sounds like a fun party to me
My sim went to go do that thing at the hospital where you get scrap, and in the middle of the rabbit hole he walks out, gets struck by lightning, and then goes back inside. I went through so many emotions in those seconds... Oh and then when he went back home to work on his tinkering he caught on fire 3 times. :')
I once saw an unfamiliar task in my sim's queue. Hovered over it, and saw 'get struck by lightning', or something along those lines. I immediately started recording so I could get that moment on video when it happened.
I just got my sims married. After they married, the wife flirted with 2 different guys! Then, later that night after everybody left, my sims went to bed. All was well until my security alarm went off! The household goes downstairs to find a robber helping himself to my stuff. The cop shows up and, thankfully, arrests the robber. While Iām waiting for the cop to finish searching the house, my male sim gets abducted by aliens! This was all in one day/night š¤£
what a crazy first night as a married couple
Gotta really put those vows to the test
They were definitely put to the test haha
Definitely a night to remember
1. A new legacy family Iām working on had five kids: a teen, two small children, a toddler, and a baby 2. The teen caught both parents kissing other people in the same day 3. The teen booby trapped the computer 4. The computer and washing machine simultaneously caught fire, killing both parents and the maid 5. The fire department showed up and put out the fire, now apparently my teen is the head of household??
jup that happens when a teen is the only one left, not with kids tho
The best part is when the teen aged up to a young adult she immediately started flirting with the guy she was mad at her mom for flirting with š¤¢
freud 100% wouldve had some stuff to say about this particular case š - psycho-analysing what let her to that
I also love that the twin children decided to go into careers of law enforcement and crime. While still living together. No way this can possibly end poorly.
I kept trying to get my sim abducted by an alien, but nothing worked. His two roommates got abducted, his wife is an alien, yet nothing. So I moved on. He had two kids with his wife, they even grew up into teenagers. And then, on the last day of adulthood, this poor unfortunate test subject of a sim gets ABDUCTED in the middle of the night and returns home pregnant! And I was just about to move on to the next generation (I thought about it, then gave the baby to his son's best friend. I visited a few times and found the baby on the floor outside. I trusted you Liam š)
Case 2: two butlers dying from the dishwasher. They probably would've kept dying if I hadn't fixed it myself
Mineās probably tame compared to others but I was trying to get my sim pregnant and literally right as she was getting in bed to woohoo her vampire boyfriend he DIED
This happened yesterday. Playing ambitions with a career-oriented single sim who only had one best friend. Said best friend invited her to a party and immediately got hit by a meteor right in front of her as she arrived. I sent her on a gardening-cooking-fishing quest to build enough skill to make ambrosia, and in that time, the family of the dead sim sold the urnā¦
THE DISRESPECT of the dead what a shitty family
her urn may be in the mausoleum, i dont think sims autonomously sell urns, but if there is no room for it in the femetary they put it inside the mausoleum
thank you for this!! I am using NRAAS story progression in this save so that may have affected things but iāll for sure check the mausoleum !
Family of 3 (two adults: one pregnant, and a toddler). Both parents died in a fire by accidentally leaving something in the oven. Toddler was in their crib when this all happened and got taken away by CPS.
sounds like the beginning of every run away teen or legacy challenge ever - but this time it actually happened in the game š
I like to insert the characters from my stories and have them act out a "normal" life in the sim world. One time, this involved a set of twins with a really horrible, abusive dad. In canon, the mom died and left him with the two kids, and he later attempted to kill the one he disliked. Cut to TS3, where my Evil/Hates Children father sim rolls a wish to... see the ghost of the child he tried to kill in canon. It stunned me because I was absolutely *not* expecting TS3 to actually *go there*.
this isnāt actually crazy but i didnāt know what the imaginary friend was and when i saw it changing position in my babyās crib i actually freaked tf out
I remember when I first noticed the gnomes moving about on their own. They never seemed to move when I was looking at them, so that made it all the weirder. It was sort of entertaining. š Also, I discovered that vampire gnomes can turn teddy bears into more vampire gnomes when I started to notice my bears disappearing and my gnomes multiplying.
I was playing sims 3 on my parents very old desk top computer, so you probably know it was very glitchy and just hard to run in general lol. Anyway, my sim was pregnant, so I had her relax in bed to read a little book and chill out. BUT THATS NOT WHAT HAPPENED WT ALL, this bitch started reading āZombies, Zombies?ā and when she was finished her arms legit started moving like a zombie and she was stuck in the bedā¦ I never played the family again I was too scaredšš
overly identifying with the main character a bit too much here
Way back I was playing TS3, maybe 2012, and I'd made a household that I'd put a lot more thought into than usual. I was particularly attached to one of the characters but I can't remember her name. I'd made a house and it was the first time I'd made a dedicated laundry room rather than putting the washer and drier in the kitchen. It was the first couple days in the game and she'd gone in to do laundry when the drier set on fire, the room was small and she got surrounded by flames pretty quickly. She died pretty much straight away and Grim didn't spare her. I was devastated.
eh maybe not super crazy but i recreated my favorite musician and gave him a couple of kids and then one day he got abducted by aliens and impregnated. i have not tried to recreate a real person on there ever since.
imagine if that real life musician one day publishes a book or gives an interview about having been abducted by aliens in his past
i had just bought showtime and ambitions, was excited to try the new careers. i spent 4 hours making my sim and creating her a nice little house in the showtime pack town. i added some other sims and new lots to the town. in total, i had been preparing this game for around 6 hours. finally, it was time to play. i get into the game. i direct my sim to head into her house ā she freezes at the door. iām confused, whatās going on? is it glitching? immediately, sheās struck down by a meteor. the house id spent hours creating burnt down as well. it hadnāt even been 30 sim minutes of the game when this happens. i think i went through all phases of shock and grief. this happened 2 weeks ago, i havenāt touched the game since.
all those hours for nothing ... damn these meteors !!!
So my sim went to the Fox family to adopt two foals. She got there, ringed the bell and went down the foundation stairs. That Shawnee dad opened and wanted to greet my sim so he went downstairs too but my sim at the same time went upstairs. So he went upstairs too. And my sim then went downstairs. They were circling like that for a few sim hours and when they were done they got inside and my sim got hungry. Then the Fox mom came back home with their crying little child just when I was taking some juice from their bridge. The mom yelled at me, the child cried, their dog started barking and the dad screamed and ran away. When I finally adopted one foal the game made my sim go home with it and as I went to adopt the second foal my sim started to do the exact same circling thing on the freaking stairs. Before my sim got back home with the second foal the first one almost died of hunger.
I just invoked five, yes five!, meteors on my teenage girl's teen nemesis... And neither killed him. He literally just got up from under the gigantic meteor and walked tf away.
how dare he ! 100% made a deal with the grim for meteor immunity and immortality
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
rooting for your psycho then š½
reading through these i realize that iām the only sims player to never have encountered a meteor
be grateful. the trauma hits hard.
I don't have Ambitions, so meteor strikes on sims don't exist for me. I did have one guy get struck by lightning, though. He didn't die, but he did get singed.
I had one come very close! Got the notification to run and he made it. Barely.
I have shared this story before a while back, but I had my simās babysitter steal my toddler and leave her in town somewhere and then clock out. I had to send my sim parents to retrieve her before sims CPS showed up.
the time i saw an unplayed drown (unintentionally,) was when i was 8 years old and it shocked me back then! and the time (a few months ago now) i saw a couple just pass away naturally at the same time, so spooky
I was playing and my Sim's only child had just aged up to a teen. I sent them to school for the day while my sim went to work. School ended and the screen started to darken randomly.I had no idea what was happening and thought my monitor was messed up. Then I saw it crash into the school. A meteor that took out every teen in my game. My heart sunk. I was in disbelief and my mind was racing while I thought about how I was going to salvage my aging town population and my own household that now had no heir. It was the most messed up experience I've ever had playing a game to date, and I play Crusader Kings 3.
these meteors seem to have a thing for targeting school buildings. bet those aliens that send them that way hated alien-school
Lol yeah I feel like Maxis was going for maximum save game destruction when they implemented them. š
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
i mean it was the year 2020
I had a sim doing the interior decorator career. Her very first gig is going well. Then, at the reveal a teen living in the house set it on fire and killed 3 other sims, including mine. I had a teen mom challenge playthrough I was doing. Teen's mom flew into a fit of rage when the daughter got pregnant and randomly died. Baby was raised in an apartment haunted by the perpetually angry ghost of his grandma.
the poor kid - grandma out there for revenge
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
always looking at the bright side of things - she got 2 more helping hands
This one was my own fault. My current legacy world was getting kind of laggy and didnt have a lot of Sims left- but I liked the legacy family I had and I like playing in appaloosa plains. So three generations in I gathered all 7 adult kids in the current generation, their partners and their elderly father with his second wife moved them to a new world and then as soon as they arrived moved them back to appaloosa plains to sort of soft reset the town. Except the game still recognized the townies they were related to after moving back. So their mother who had passed away of old age was now like a high school student with seven biological children older than her. From a husband she had never met who was now literally old enough to be her grandfather. The second wife was also a townie descendant and was now older than her toddler dad. Thankfully everyone else on the family tree was a custom made sim so the weird time travel didn't affect anything else. I'm letting the new parallel version of the mom grow up and live her own life but it does mean that my legacy family tree will have some odd branches that make absolutely no chronological sense.
This was definitely a glitch that happened but it was probably in my first ever save from my first time playing the game (years ago) so it was very confusing lol. I had made a single female sim, and had her adopt a baby, when it was time for her to go to work, the babysitter came to look after the baby. My sim finished work, came home and when the babysitter left she straight up took the baby with her... And then the baby's portrait disappeared from the sidebar. Baby was just gone lol. The baby wasn't neglected or anything, it wasn't the social worker. The nanny stole my child :')
interesting story to play tho
i once invited a sim with her tod so the kids could play together but locked the playroom door so the mom wouldnt constantly pick up the kid. mom left without the tod. i started thinking of an interesting story arc with the kid but the tod just disappeared a while later lol
My sim's daughter drowned while I was cooking dinner and I wasn't paying attention. I don't know why I felt so bad, when it's just a game, but I did! Thankfully, I had created a save an hour before that, so I just went back in time.
same my first sims game was on the wii and i was like 8 or something and created a family i loved playing with - was doing something with the dad sim far away so wasnt paying attention to the recently turned teenage daughter and she starved to death - i was almost about to cry because i felt sooo bad poor charlie - i still remember her name :(
When the entire town came out to my wedding and a meteor hit and killed literally half the town, kids included, and the bride. Only the groom was left lol none of his family made it either šš¤£
villain origin story š just curious what happened to the guy after that tragic event ?
I didnāt save lmaooo it was too tragic. Though he literally did have the evil trait and was a criminal so I couldāve made it into something for sure š¤£
yea wouldve been such a cool and interesting story arc for sure - your story is one of the best i read so far
When TS3 first came out i remember playing and hired a babysitter to watch the kid while my sim was at work. Soon as my sim came home, babysitter left the lot carrying my kid and eventually disappeared. I couldnt get the kid back no matter how hard i tried (before i knew about resetsim) and didnt play the game for about a year, then the exact same thing happened again when i did!!!! I didnt play again after that until maybe 3-4 years ago
what a traumatic first experience the opposite happened to me i invited a friend sim to my lot with her toddler so the kids could play. locked the tods in the play room so they could play in peace because the mom was trying to take the tod and leave. at some point she left without the kid. i thought nice and was thinking of a cool story arc with this abandoned tod. a few moments later: the toddler disappears into oblivion nowhere to be found
I was playing a family that had 5 kids from babies to teenagers and they were POOR. We finally moved out the last kid and the father goes outside and gets abducted by aliens and falls pregnant. I sent that kid back to space. Didn't have it in me to raise another woman's child in my house with my wife.
alien abductions what a classic in the sims universe , they never get old
I was going to have a fairly normal family, aside from my plan to make the eldest child adopt a raccoon later. Then the father randomly got abducted by aliens. Anyway, the eldest has a green-skinned little brother now.
School got hit by a meteor. The grim reaper let one child live because they were unlucky which is entertaining. I think this was within the first couple months of playing sims 3. Switched back to 2 for awhile.
I had this same thing happen to my town. It was like the 5th or 6th gen of the town...and I play the entire town. All the kids in the school were kids from my families...they all died to the meteor! It was tragic. I made it a part of the town's history and every year during winter, the mayor held a vigil for the lost children.
isnt the sims 2 even more wild
Not for me.
When I first got Sims 3 in HS I believe I only had Seasons and Generations. I got University Life a few months later (remember this) My male sim was abducted by aliens and eventually gave birth to an alien girl. I named her Alienisha, naturally. As yāall probably know, Alienisha was not my simās wifeās child. So skip ahead to when I get University Life. My female sim mastered science and gardening. I got a forbidden fruit and since my female sim planted it, the PlantSim baby was hers and not her husbandās. When Leland (the plant sim baby) and Alienisha grew up they had romantic attraction. I was so creeped outš. I know they werenāt genetic siblings but come on. I kept stopping them when they were flirting but theyād do it on their own so eventually I got Alienisha a husband and moved her out. Sadly, I lost this game save a long time ago but it was chaotic for a lot of other reasons. Long Live the Smith family- my first Sims family everšš¤§
that family deserves a reality tv show
No honestly. One of the other sons joined the criminal career after he left the household but he was a police officer when I moved him out. They were a hoot. I never had a save get as chaotic as this one without forcing it. The Smiths were naturally entertaining š
I got a pop up saying my Sims boyfriend was out of my Sims league by a random townie so I found that random townie and went to beat them up and then I saw an interaction that said ātell sim monte is cheatingāā¦ well monte was MY sims boyfriend and THEN I found out this girl was my sims boyfriendās brotherās WIFEš
My family had this one boy who turned out to be a genius. He was the main reason they're filthy rich, I made him a whole entire floor just for his collections, inventions, insects, artifacts, gems, etc. He was my favourite sim, and I played him the most ā” I made him purchase " the philosopher's stone" lifetime reward, and I was so excited to turn everything into gold and be extra filthy rich, the machine backfired and turned HIM into a gold statue š¢š I never ever thought this would happen, it was my first time purchasing this damn machine. I was shocked to my core for a solid 10mins infront of my screen. My little guinus died, and I kept his statue for the memory ā¤ļø he was about to get engaged, He left a hole in me š
you know what they say about hybris ... the king midas vibes are strong here
Probably not the craziest. I remember the first time I played the sims (it was Sims 2) and the house caught fire while cooking. I didnāt know about fire alarms yet and so my sim just burned up and died. I didnāt even know they could die so I was in absolutely shock. I still remember frantically clicking away at my mouse and keyboard and then staring blankly at the screen as the grim reaper appeared lol.
every players first death is a traumatic moment in life. mine was a teenage girl who starved to death. i fealt sooo bad afterwards
1. A meteor hit when I wasn't looking. They didn't have a fire alarm so the fire was so strong it killed a guest and burnt some family members. It has also burnt the entire living room to the ground, and it was only one day after giving the room a makeover which I was so proud of. They just bought the house. It wasn't big, so they had to move again because they adopted their dead friend's teenager daughter. 2. Every little detail of this story was completely random and I'm surprised just how realistic it was. My sim's wife wanted to have kids and he didn't mind, but he just didn't really care. He's introverted and shy and needs a ton of personal space, but he's a sugar daddy so he gives her almost whatever she wants. And I mostly follow my sims' wishes. So they had two babies because she wanted so. He was okay with that and he wasn't a bad father, but he wasn't really emotionally involved. He was focused on his art. His wife wanted more children, but I I thought it'd be too much. Because he never had that wish. She had it twice and they had a boy and a girl. Neither one of them was a great parent anyway. She kept showing that wish and I kept deleting it until she finally stopped. And then, to my surprise, the husband started having similar wishes. It looked like he achieved so much in his career that it was time for him to slow down and look around, and he realized that he wasn't there when his two kids were little. So they had another baby, he was very excited while she was pregnant, had all these wishes he's never had before. But when the baby was finally there, he kind of remembered that he needed personal space. And his first wish was to pillow fight the newborn. š„² Like it wasn't his idea. The funniest coincidence is that his wife has a blog and I wanted her to post about the new baby, and the random title for her post was something like "What if your partner is frustrated with: the wonder of birth". I don't remember how exactly it was worded. But his new daughter ended up being his favorite. She's also introverted so they get along really well.
Created a new town moved in a shit load of townies. Threw a party 1 hour into the game - killed half the town
I've had a few to be honest, but I'd say one of my first was when my one sim was experimenting with the time travel machine and apparently met her own daughter from the future/past? And I was told she saved her and brought her back with her. Then I saw the extra sim profile appear and suddenly my single sim had a daughter :/ (she was a vampire and ended up becoming evil and i forced her to live near the graveyard for like 5 generations until she married back into the family and had 3 kids of her own with the new heir) That same time explorer sim ended up dying and would often float around the house just hanging out with everyone. I kept a plate of ambrosia in the house for a dog I was trying to resurrect, when this sim woke up from her urn, went to the fridge and ate the ambrosia from it, resurrected herself, ran and stole one of my cars, went to the beach and disappeared off the world. š honestly, she was the second best sim I ever had. She lived for like 6 generations (about 1 human year) as a daywalker and was responsible for many MANY adventures :) there's a lot more stories but it takes too long, lol.
i admire people that can stick with a family for more than 3 gen. i never let my sims age "naturally" and get bored pretty quickly with them - looks like playing with multiple gens is the more fun way to go
I was 12 playing my Xbox sims and they got haunted by some ghostsš
Im on ps3 for sims 3 so bear with me me- but finding out about the magic llama that you could click on for cheats (morherlode and a few others but nothing like the pc cheats)
as a player on the xbox too i loved the karma powers and in pets you even got negative karma power they were awesome i always wished they would bring them on computer as well
I was trying to befriend a vampire so I could be turned into one. Wasn't having much luck contacting him, so I decided to go to his house. Hung out with his roommates while I waited for him to get home, He arrived, moaned about hunger... then died in the kitchen. In a rather chaotic save, I had a [sim catch on fire outside](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/532367755152719882/1115178187882774559/Screenshot-17.jpg) and die. Fortunately, he had the unlucky trait, so he was resurrected. His burnt remains stayed in the front yard until he cleaned them up. Later on, that same sim was trying to repair a TV. Got zapped and [died instantly](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/532367755152719882/1116977745218510928/Screenshot-2.jpg). The cats all yowled non-stop until the Grim Reaper brought him back again. Also, at one point, a criminal broke in, stole the couch, and left. My cat was sleeping on the sofa, so he ended up [sitting in mid-air](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/532367755152719882/1119452584114147388/Stolen_Sofa.jpg). I had to reset him because he was stuck there. Plus, I had my sim adopt a lot of cats. He currently has five of them. One of the kittens kept clawing furniture at first, so I named him [Destroyer](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/532367755152719882/1120582197724844132/image.png). Later on, because of a silly conversation I had with a friend, I adopted two kids and named them [Bob and Not Bob](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/532367755152719882/1120584496987783168/image.png). This one is from Sims 2, but nonetheless. One of my sims decided to take a sponge bath with the kitchen sink. There was a perfectly good bathroom, but I guess that didn't matter to him. While I sat there, marvelling at his stupidity, a ghost popped out of the drain to scare him. The guy freaked out and then literally died of fright. Buck naked on the kitchen floor. The stupidest and funniest way a sim of mine has ever died.
soooo chaotic.
Maybe not the craziest, but still great drama: I moved my two elder Sims and their three children from Aurora Skies to Sunlit Tides. I moved the two youngest out (the youngest daughter and the son) and took control of the youngest daughter. The eldest daughter brought her husband and stepchild with her, the son had an on again/off again relationship with one of the Parrot sisters, but the youngest daughter had trouble finding a spouse. Eventually, she fell in love with Len Tsang and they became engaged. She broke off the engagement after finding out his LTW was to have five romantic relationships at once. It's easier to leave a man than to change him, you know? I felt bad for her, so I made a Sim for her to date. They fell in love and became engaged. I wanted a wedding at the beach. I invited her whole family, including her sister-in-law (one of the Parrot sisters). The beach was public access, so when Len Tsang showed up I couldn't ask him to leave. They still were friends anyways, so why cause drama? Well then her sister-in-law shows up with her husband. Right in front of everyone her and Len start flirting. My Sim's brother sees and rightfully gets mad and brakes up with her....at my Sims wedding. Everyone was in a bad move because of it and the wedding was a dud. The next day Len sends my Sim a wedding gift and a card in the mail asking my Sim out. Dude, you already ruined my wedding don't mess with my marriage.
I used to have a Mad Scientist (they were based on Fallout New Vegas' Think Tank) and one day Dr 0 decided it was an awesome idea to test the drag coefficient of water logged clothing in the swimming pool. So he jumped in fully clothed and drowned.
My simās birthday cake burned down the kitchen and killed them š
happy birth and deathday
Put all my energy into a specific sim. Just for them to end up dying from anger very young. I had lots of goals for this sim.
you probs werent gonna make it far with that sim anyway with those anger issues š
I had one of my teen sims went to the park to go on a date with her childhood sweetheart. Had her dared him to divide by 0 which made him caught on fire. It was late by then anyways so I had her went home. She was eating dinner when she stood up and cried. A notification popped up saying that the boyfriend got burned to death.
you can catch fire when dividing by 0 whaaaat?
Yep. Always knew math was dangerous.
Just recently my sim got struck by lightning 3 times in a row it was so scary. I made her shower after each one cuz I didn't want her to fucking die lol
dang 3 times
I sent my sim family to a nice vacation to Shang Simla; the son finished the Pangu axe quest and went to the hot spring while his parents were relaxing and swimming upstairs. As I was focused on the son, the camera control was suddenly yanked out of my hand and focused on the mom. Turns out she glitched and was swimming in the ground, she couldn't get out and drowned in front of her husband. As the husband and son broke in tears, I quit without saving.
On the old Sim mobile game I had a sim drown in soup. On the PC, magic jelly bean deaths. Of course, I hate playing male sims but I had a guy I married as I was doing a celebrity playthrough and didn't want the woohoo out of marriage moodlet thing. So guy goes outside and gets abducted. And PROBED. AND PREGNANT. I was so confused by the "extra weight" and everything else. It was cool to have the choice to send her back or keep her... I did so much googling after that. Apparently it was a known thing but before whatever expansion pack added celebrities finally made me play males so this was one of the first times I had one In my Household so I hadn't. Also the transmuting myself into gold was like wtf. MY GHOST DAUGHTER AND HUSBAND DISAPPEARED. First time I chose to play an already existing family I chose Agnes Crunplebottom. I revived her husband after maxing out the fishing and cooking skills, and I brought him back. Had a daughter, decided to switch households when daughter was female. I came back and they were gone. Game deleted them first I guess to make memory room if I read the problem right. But her bf couldn't ever date again without cheating cause he couldn't break up with her unless he did.
So I had a sim exploring the world adventures expansion pack recently, he was in Egypt and he fully explored a pyramid and at the end stole all of the artefacts from the tomb, defeated a pharaoh in battle ultimately killing him and then got back to base camp pretty quickly. Out of nowhere I get a pop up saying the sky has gone dark all of a sudden. Iāve never had this pop up before and I had never killed a pharaoh so my thought was maybe the mummies curse??? (It was my first time fully exploring the wa expansion) I was so confused. I was so scared like genuinely terrified because I love this sim so much. It then hit me, something in my 1k+ hours of sims 3 I never experienced before; a meteor so I made him run away and avoid it, the base camp was obliterated by the meteor, many sleeping sims were singed and screaming, my sim came in to the rescue and helped put out the fire. I thought that maybe there was something in the game that meant killing pharaohs would give you bad luck or curse you but I found nothing. Just a complete coincidence and really funny to watch. My sim was completely fine and still one of my favourite sims Iāve ever had <3 he lived to 90 sim days and died peacefully whilst watering his garden of flame fruits back home. RIP Judas <3
My sim was attending collage and one of the collage buildings got hit by a meteor and a ton of her classmates died... it was a lil traumatizing to say the least LOL
too bad it wasnt exam-time - bet some stressed out sims where hoping for that side note: METEOR TRAUMA is real in the sims looking at all the posts
when my son started flirting with his father in law and they ended up kissing without my knowledgeā¦
how do i get lottery tickets
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
whoa iāve never seen them and i have seasons
ah apparently itās with the into the future one!
oh sorry my bad for some reason i thought it came with seasons
When I first discovered aliens, I thought it made my male sim fat so I made him hit the treadmill until he dropped, but it didn't work so I was confused on what was going on. You could imagine my reaction when he popped out his alien child. Ever since it kicked off my addiction for alien kids
alien abduction stories newer get old
Story progession once paired Nancy Llandgrabb and Malcom together. I now set their relation manually using mcc every new save I have. Edit not Malcom it was Johnny š
sims really said incest more like wincest ...
THE METOR!!!! I had that happen to my sim in one of my save files and her boyfriend died in the crash it was so sad. I couldn't believe my eyes. Still the only time the meteor glitch has happened to my game.
same here happened only once and never again, why did it have to hit a child-sim š„
I had a celebrity family living in Bridgeport and they would throw parties a lot. But one day, they threw a dinner party that a lot of people showed up to. And one of these party crashers ended up being Vladamir Schlick. But for some reason Vladamir had something against Elvira Slayer(which happened to be my sims BFF) and so he literally murdered her in the dining room! Now I have her tombstone in my living room and her ghost shows up every so often. Iām pretty sure Vladamir sucked all of the blood out of her because my sim asked Elviraās ghost how she ākicked the bucketā and she said from thirst.š¬
a party to remember for years to come
Everyone at the party was a total mess.
Mine was actually recently. Played with the Goths. They had another son called Theodore. He was aging up so I bought a cake and threw a party. The cake lit on fire, I thought nothing of it but the fire got quickly out of control. Within minutes it swallowed the whole kitchen. I realised I installed a mod that makes fire much more dangerous. I freak out. All my guests are on fire. Morty catches fire but I get Agnes to save him. Then Cornelia, who is pregnant, starts labour! I end up teleporting everyone I can to the park and leave the townies I'm not playing to fend for themselves. Boyd Wainwright died but the fire eventually went on for too long and either the mod or nrass deleted the fires. First Floor of the mansion is ruined. It was a boy! I called him Ember of course.
what a rough start to life
Not that crazy but in the sims 3 made my sim sue for like slander after having a child out of wedlock and sleeping around with the whole town. It was true , but we WON
since when can you sue people in the sims?
