Legacy family update

I move my legacy family to Sunlit Tides and remodeled the exterior of their house.

The weird thing is, the bride, Felicity, lives at home with mom and dad, abd when Felicity went to plan the wedding and invite everyone, her mother and father were not in the list of people to invite (she is best friends with her mother, and has a very high relationship status with her father). I figured this was because they were all in the same household, and since they were in the household they would automatically go to the wedding (which was on a community lot). Both parents were home at the time that I got the pop up that the first guest had shown up for the party, so it wasn't that anyone was at work or anything. Felicity's two brothers and her sister-in-law showed up, but not the parents. When I finally sent Felicity and Eric home, I saw that mom and dad were still home...in their formal wear. I don't understand why I wasn't able to invite them to the community lot for the wedding and why they didn't automatically go. Is it because they are still in the active household and I needed to tell them to go to the community lot? They missed their only daughters wedding!!!!

Anyway....

I also moved the family to Sunlit Tides and remodeled the exterior of their house they had in Lucky Palms. Not a big change...the house went from looking like this:

To this:

I actually prefer it more after its remodel. ^_^

Also, exciting news for my simself and my bf's simself. They are getting their first grand-baby! Their second oldest son, Logan, and his "girlfriend" are expecting a baby! ^_^

It's exciting for me too because I've never gotten past Generation 2 whenever I've tried to do a legacy family in the past. I'm actually really enjoying my game much more than I thought I would at this point. I guess I am one of those players who play the legacy's for genetics because I cannot wait to see how his baby looks, or how Felicity's child will look once she gets pregnant. ^_^

Sims 4...

Nooooot!
Just another member thinking they found out some new information about when sims 4 is going to be announced/released soon, and this time---the source is from a personal blog with no real credible source to back up their, months old, claim.

So she goes on to say that she read some news about sims 4 and that, for her, it's bad news. Why? Your source, which wasn't posted until page 3, was not a credible source of factual info, but a blog basing their "speculations".

http://sims4blog.com/sims-4/

A personal blog is the source of your information?

Where did this member hear that it might come out in 6 months?

That blog post (created on Jan. 06), sorry I don't/can't find that blog a credible source---"The Sims 4 will be the next game of the Sims series.", no...the next game in the sims series (if you're reading their blog for the first time now) to be released is Supernatural, and at the time that that blog was created...it was Showtime--which they even stated two paragraphs later, so they contradicted their fist assumption (and that's all this blog post of theirs is), even go to state, "the Sims 4 will be released not far from the beginning of 2014"...even if that turns out to be true (and that's the only thing I believe to anywhere near a fact), that's a pretty far time away even if they were to release it near the end of 2013, it's more than 6 months. I think if we were really getting it in 6 months we would be hearing/seeing more confirmation of the game coming out and not so many rumors. My intention is not to be rude or anything, but I wouldn't take that blog too seriously, guys. Anyone can make the speculations they did and put it up on a blog (hell, you can say what I'm saying now is just an speculation of what they are saying! Confused yet? I did, and I wrote/thought it! LOL). IMO, it was a blog post of their opinions...not facts. No source links to back up their claims that "the best-selling PC game in history (!) is already making voices of the next game to come: The Sims 4." Where did they get that info? Link? And if they were able to find it so easily, why isn't everyone else able to as well? And if they do have sources that prove that to be correct, why not link it to your readers? Not saying it's not true because I have no source to say whether it is or not, but if you're going to put that out there as a "matter of fact" claim...don't you think you should have some sort of source to back up your information?

So if she is saying that in 6 months from the time that blog was posted we were suppose to get Sims 4, then we should have gotten it by now. Nothing in that blog has any concrete, credible, source of when the sims 4 is going to be announced/released. I guess people are getting so excited, and worked up, over the idea of sims 4 possibly coming out within the next few years...they'll believe anything as "source" involving the mention of the sims 4...even if it's just speculations from fellow bloggers.

Chill out people!!!!

Wow. I think a lot of people on the officials are getting ahead of themselves with the rumor that Seasons means the end of the Sims 3 series. So many people saying that it will end after Seasons is released.
Why?
My theory is because about 2 or 3 EP's ago, people who wanted Seasons were speculating it would be the last EP to be made (because it was taking so long to be made/announced/released). Well, now it's been announced and because it's been announced (and the earlier speculation that it would be the last EP for Sims 3) people are speculating it's the end of this series. Dang, I even saw people asking what computer could/would be good enough to run both Sims 4 and Sims 3!!!!

How would be know what the specs are for Sims 4 when we don't even know when/if it will be released! I mean, good gawd, people are ready to move on before we even get Supernatural and Seasons! Enjoy Sims 3 and the Ep's/Sp's we got/are getting...Sims 4 will be here when/if it gets here. DANG!
