168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Sims 4’s latest expansion pack is called Island Living. It will finally introduce beaches, sunbathing, and a whole host of other tropical themed additions. Fro♐m cabanas to lounge chairs, the pack has Simmers excited to head to tropical climes.
For those who have been playing 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Sims for a while, there will inevitably be comparisons between this and previous tropical themes packs. So how does it compare? What are we seeing the return of and what’s completely different? Here are 5 things from The Sims 2: Bon Voyage which are making a return and 5 features of The Sims 4: Island Living which are entirely new.
10 The Same: Discover Hidden Treasur🌜e
In 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Sims 2, your Sims could plunder a pirate ship and gather beach collectibles. This is making a return, just in a slightly❀ different way. We've seen that Sims can search for seashells, as well as gain collectibles from exploring caves on the island, scuba diving, and using traps in the ocean.
In total, there are 2 new co𒁃llections to discover. These are seashells and buried treasure. There are also some new fish. We do not know if you will be able to collect butterflies, but they are present on the island.
9 🐬 Different: Make Friends With Dolphins 🐻
You can also form relationships with dolphins. Simply go into the sea and find one. As you 🐻begin to talk to and pet the dolphin, more options will open up. Talking to dolphins will also increase your social need and🐭 can provide a happiness boost.
Onc🐓e you've built up a bond, you can rub their b🐠elly, ask them to perform tricks, and even get them to hunt for collectibles. Other interactions include feeding, naming, and splashing them.
8 T💯he Same: Swimming In Oceans
Swimming in the ocean is also back. The coastal 🦋waters of Sulani will be fully available to explore. All Sims (with the exception of babies) can enter 🌊the ocean. Even toddlers can splash in the shallows. This is currently limited to Sulani but may roll out to other worlds in the future.
As well as swimming, you can also snorkel, scuba dive, or simply float about. You cannot go under the water with Sims, though, as there is no deep sea diving view. However, th🌄ere are sharks and other interesting creatures lurking.
For🍰 speedier Sims, there are also aqua-zips and boats available. These appear to have a hidden skill associated with them, as Sims who've been riding a while can perform tricks. You can also customize them.
7 🔯 ♓ Different: Encounter An Active Volcano
The island has some danger with an active volcano in one of the neighborhoods. This can and does erupt, sending l🎐ava rocks into nearby locations. If your Sims touch the hot rocks, they will catch on fire.
Thankfully (or not, depending on how you play the game), neighbors are very helpful and often on hand with a fire ex♈tinguisher. Once the hot ro🔥cks cool, you can break them open and find metals or jewels inside.
6 The Same: Build Sandcastles 𓆉
Sandcastles are also back again. Sims ca💜n head to the beach and build a variety of different sculptures in the sand, including gnomes and even a cow plant. There is no age limit on the fun, with anyone from toddler age and up being able to play in the sand.
It’s also a group activity, with Sims able to help each other. Once done, you can admire your work. Just watch out for ﷺtoddlers who can also have a spectacular tantrum and destroy it all!
5 🤡 Different: Take Part-Time Or Casual Jobs ♏
For Sims who don't want a career, you can now have a more casual job. Thes♛e include part-time jobs previously only available to teens. The new full list of part-time jobs co♔mprises babysitter, barista, diver, fast food employee, fisherman, and lifeguard. You can even choose from a couple of different options for hours, with either morning or night-time shifts available.
Alongside these are new odd jobs: one-off jobs which you can do to earn some extra Simoleons. These include paid beach-cleaning volunteer work, taking photos, moving furniture, and helping hookup a TV. They are unique to the island and appear to function similarly to freelance career jobs, with sꦐome being rabbit holes and others being interactive.
4 𝐆 The Same: Learn About I🌳sland Culture
Sims 2 allowed you to learn local dances and eat local food. Sims 4 is taking this to the extre♌🍌me. The island has its own unique culture which includes new food, new ways of cooking, and new customs and festivals.
There are also island spirits who respond to you and how you treat their ancest♒ral home. If you take care of the island, then the interactions are more likely to be positive. The island is a very friendly place and neighbors will be more on hand than they are in previous worlds. They’ve ♋also stopped bringing 'round fruitcake, much to the relief of fruitcake-hating sims.
3 Different: An Off-The-Grid Lot Trait 🧸
The off-the-grid trait is coming and appears to be for all players. This is a nice touch as it will work well🧔 for those wanting a castaway experience or playing related challenges. It will cut off your lot from the grid. This means ♊no electricity and no running water. It also means no bills!
While you cannot use 🦩TVs, computers, or other electrical items, candle-based lighting works. You can alꦫso shower in the waterfall on the new island, perfect for a castaway story. However, you cannot deliberately pee in the sea. (Thanks, Deligracy.)
2 ✱ The Same: Sunbathing & Tanningꦗ
Sunbathing is also making a return. Sims can sunbathe in clothing or in the nude. Sims can get sunburnt and the whi🌜te lines will reflect the clothing they were wearing at the time. If you choose the apply suncream action, it will allow you to tan instead of burn. You can sunbathe on the new lounge chairs or on the pool floats. Just watch out—passers-by can and will prank sunbathers, giving them crazy tan lin﷽es.
Sunbathing is not restricted to Sulani, but Sims will only be able to sunbathe if Island Living is installed. It also interac꧃ts with seasons, meaning Sims cannot sunbathe if the weather is cloudy and overcast.
1 Different: You Can Live On The🎶 Island
Unlike the Sims 2: Bon Voyage worlds, the island of Sulani is not just a va❀cation destination. It’s a fully liveable world with community events and its own unique culture. It comprises 3 separate neighborhoods and 14 lots. Lot sizes range from a 20x20 up 🧸to a 50x50.
With its beautiful beaches and gorgeous cabanas, Sulani offers a different pace of life to other Sims 4 worlds. The sun is shining and the ocean is right outside your front door—quite literally for some lots. Just make sure yo🉐u take care of the island by cleaning ༒up the trash and removing graffiti—it will be worth it!
