Atomicide said:yeah came out on friday, i bought it for the missus (and myself :P)
its got great AI and some nice features, but its exceptionally buggy (like mir3Europe buggy :S) things like the character/family Avatars dont work.
But its fully 3D and the sims are extremely customisable. But the one things thats got worse than the first one is the lighting. even with windows on ever conceiable space of the wall, rooms are still dark. It supposed to be "realistic lighting" but if it was realistic, it means ur bedroom window would light up the space directly around it with the rest of ur room dark as ****.
Also, u can now pick from colours for most items in the house, such as furniture etc, the only things that makes this crap is the severe lack of items. I dont think u get any of the sims1 expansion pack items. Its extremely basic.
If the fix the bugs etc it will be good. id give it a current rating of 5/10 they need to fix it up fast.
Does construction mode (building walls, doors, windows, etc) work on your copy? Doesn't on mine, wondering if it's a bug or something wrong with my install.Atomicide said:but its exceptionally buggy (like mir3Europe buggy :S) things like the character/family Avatars dont work.

Atomicide said:Camelot can i ask what version of windows ur running? Cos so far no1 seems to have thought these problems could be due to versions of windows etc. The missus is trying hers on a compy with a 256mb Graphics card (ATI Radeon) 1 Gig Ram and a 2 Gig Processor. And all the driveers etc have been fully updated today. Its also Running XP SP 1 so we can see if theres any link between XP versions and problems.
