They're also more likely to get involved in Late Night's new social activities, which include pub games like darts. This increases the likelihood that they'll stick together (rather than have the annoying tendency to wander off), and it also seems to accelerate the rate at which grouped sims grow closer because they're more likely to interact with each other continuously. This new system causes grouped sims to stick together when on the go and hang out with each other. You get gigs from The Sims 3's opportunity system (so they'll pop up randomly)-we got one to play a dive bar downtown, so we used Late Night's new group system to get everyone there. So if you're in a band, you'll need to keep an eye on the local paper or your ear to the ground (talking to the town's movers and shakers) to make sure that you can play a venue that isn't totally dead. While your musically inclined sims can try to earn a little spare change outside the subway station playing alone (assuming they don't get mugged, which they can in Late Night), they'll make the most scratch playing a happenin' club.Ī hip rock-and-roll combo can be yours in Late Night, though sadly, none of the Doobie Brothers will be available. Fortunately, Late Night actually expands the range of instruments you can play beyond just electric guitars-you can also play piano, upright bass, or a drum kit (no Rock Band 3 play set, though). And if you happen to be in a band, your bread and butter will come from playing gigs. Late Night has plenty of new and goofy animations for stirring, shaking, and mixing up advanced "juice" cocktails to serve for cold, hard cash. For instance, if you're taking advantage of Late Night's new bartending feature, you can collect recipes from books and from skill advancements. Parties are important for making a little extra scratch in Late Night. This is not unlike certain Los Angeles-based starlets whose primary claim to fame is…showing up at parties.

At higher levels of fame, not only will your sims be welcomed with open arms through the velvet ropes, but your sims may also be able to pick up some extra cash being a professional party crasher, taking in a little extra cash from nightclub owners to grace their parties with your presence and have your picture taken. At lower levels of fame, your sims will be able to only get into low-end clubs and will get checked by bouncers unless you have other skills that can sneak you through, such as computer hacking, which can get you in through the back door.
The hot spot system plays into several of Late Night's new features, such as the new "celebrity level." All sims can gain up to five levels of notoriety (indicated by a 5-star meter that floats above each one's head). Late Night will have a "hot spot" system that highlights which of the town's clubs will be the most crowded and which will be flat-out empty. These clubs include anything from lowly dive bars to the trendiest of venues, where the bouncers only let in the social elite. Instead, Late Night will focus on getting your sims out of the house and into the nightlife at various clubs throughout the brand new town of Bridgeport, which was modeled after both the bohemian city of San Francisco and the home of Tinseltown, Los Angeles. Producer Grant Rodiek describes Late Night as a "return to the open-ended gameplay of The Sims" in reference to how the expansion will focus more on socializing and exploring, in contrast to World Adventures and Ambitions, which were more focused on directed, role-playing game-like advancement.
