TSR Hands on with 'Into the Future'
Lifetime Rewards, Collectables and Traits
I used a cheat and had a sniff around in the Lifetime Rewards (as you do) and found the following:
Food Replicator: My bad.. was already there....
Time Remote Control (25,000 points): The power to control time! Allows for Oasis Landing Utopian, Dystopian, and Normal states to be selected at the click of a button.
Trait Chip Bundle (10,000 points): Get a bundle of Assorted Trait Chips for your Plumbots without having to design or create them!
Portal Immunity (10,000 points): Never suffer from the effects of Time Travel Sickness while travelling through time again!
Future Sim (5,000 points: Become the Sim of the Future, today! Receive an upgraded phone and fit in better with locals in Oasis Landing.
I found the list of 20 Nanites in the collectables page. You don't really want me to list them all here do you? No? Great, thanks :)
New Traits I found were:
Bot Fan: The Boom in Bot Technology has left many Sims fascinated and intrigued by these complex machines. While many Sims are at home with their organic bodies, some would prefer to be a Bot instead. The image above and right is a Bot Fan Sim in his favorite outfit.
Technophobe: My bad.. was already there....
Unstable: When a pile of disjointed components rattle around a Sim's head, they tend to be called "Unstable". Their traits are in a constant unpredictable flux and delusional episodes are just around the corner.
Finally in my notes, the new music style in the last EP is called "Digi Tunes". The ones I listened to were something like futuristic elevator music.
And in the distant hills of Oasis Landing is The Mining District, a place for Sims to live that refuse to embrace Future Tech. It's like a traditional world tucked away in the corner, with a bit of a hillbilly feel.
OK, that turned out to be a longer article than expected so sorry if I bored the pants off you and well done for getting this far!
My next articles will be on Sims 4 again, just as soon as the release embargoes are up and I'm allowed to share more.
