The Sims 4 Vampires: SimGuru Q&A

Game Pack producers are answering some of your questions on twitter about The Sims 4 Vampires Game Pack. Check out some of their replies down below!

We’ll be updating the list as new tweets get published.

@Cinderellimouse You can be a single form vampire or a dual form vampire.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@Cinderellimouse No, either you have only a regular form, or you have a regular and a dark form. But all CAS options are available on both.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@catloverplayer Residential world

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@_SofiaMia @YouTube Yup, 5 playable lots including the creepy mansion! 🙂

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@Cinderellimouse @SimGuruNinja Yup!

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@spring_sims @SimGuruNinja Yes, there are new lot traits!

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@Connor1452 @PaulinaKlepacka @catloverplayer @TheSimScraper @SimGuruNinja Vampires have a unique tombstone, just like aliens do.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@XAYR0 @tazreentasnim @catloverplayer 1 neighborhood with 5 lots

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@BroBastii No, but you could ask a Vampire to turn them!

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@Frimlin @SimGuruNinja Aliens cannot become vampires and there are no hybrids.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@tweeterbeees @SimGuruHouts @SimGuruNinja Depends on your powers and weaknesses!

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@RoryplaysSims Everyone knows that a vampire doesn’t have a reflection!

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@catloverplayer @SimGuruNinja Nope!

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@spring_sims @SimGuruNinja No emotional aura for vamps

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@RacodyZ The new world has some areas that look like cemeteries, but there is no cemetery lot with special behavior.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@AmberLynnGrow94 Ghosts cannot have babies. If a vamp and alien try to have a baby, their offspring will be either an alien or a vamp.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@PetarC123 @SimGuruNinja Yes!

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@Frimlin @SimGuruNinja No, because Alien form and Human form use different CAS parts.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@TheBrunoCp @SimGuruNinja You can customize your vamp with powers and weaknesses.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@KentaProduction We’ll be sharing more info on Vampire powers in the future! Stay tuned!

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@TheBrunoCp @SimGuruNinja Sims can be born as Vamps, but their powers do not manifest until teen.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@TheBrunoCp @SimGuruNinja And a Vampire can only turn a Sim that is teen or older.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@TheBrunoCp @SimGuruNinja Yes!

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

Any new harvestables/recipes – Is this a harvestable? @SimGuruNinja @SimGuruMegs pic.twitter.com/UXcRrCVi2M

— SimScraper (@TheSimScraper) January 10, 2017

@luketheplumbob @TheSimScraper @SimGuruNinja The plasma tree is in the background.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@catloverplayer @SimGuruNinja We don’t have a new radio station.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@AhmedKallala Yes, he’s a resident of Forgotten Hollow.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@catloverplayer @AhmedKallala Yes, the female vampire on the cover art lives there too!

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@luketheplumbob @SimGuruNinja We don’t have hunting mode like Sims 3.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@luketheplumbob @SimGuruNinja Yes but if you don’t ask nicely, they won’t like your Sim very much.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@CuriousCheeze Regular neighborhood. All pack assets can be used anywhere. But FH is so creepy and cool, that’s where my Vampire lives!

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@SimGuruMegs @PaulinaKlepacka @catloverplayer @TheSimScraper You can engrave them with epitaphs.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@RealThomasTV1 No new lot sizes.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@TheSimScraper @SimGuruMegs No on/off switch, but Vampirism only spreads when you (player) do it. So no swarms of Vamps invading your worlds

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@AhmedKallala Special power you can choose.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@TFSxxx @SimGuruDrake @SimGuruMegs @SimGuruRusskii @SimGuruHouts Have to keep it tight for performance, but it’s dripping with character.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@Sulucorp Coffin lids close and yes, you can cry it out in there.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@catloverplayer That was Vampire sparring. That’s the friendly version. 😉

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@KentaProduction Yes! There’s at least one other really cool romance option for Vampires.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@Frimlin @SimGuruMegs Of course! Have to be able to support those Vegetarian Vampires, right?

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@yes_mi_mi_mi You can use any existing skin tones in the game and they’ll work with all vamp parts beautifully.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@yes_mi_mi_mi Really important to us that you can create a wide variety of Vampire types. Old school, new school, & everything in between.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@Sulucorp @Cinderellimouse @SimGuruHouts Some of the vampire-esque recipes can be placed on your Restaurant menu. 😉

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@AhmedKallala I don’t know. The super speed kind of blows me away. It’s so satisfying to use!

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@Vihisha Yes, several different styles of fangs so you can really customize to the specific look you’re going for.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@SouthSnowBC That is one of the several new statues we’re offering, yes.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@Mistergerbit No, but they don’t spread unless you do it as the player. So no invading hordes of Vampires will attack your world.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@yes_mi_mi_mi It’s not genetics or makeup either. It’s an all new CAS part!

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@TheSimScraper @SimGuruMegs You should put a red box around the tree in the background. 😉

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@catloverplayer @SimGuruMegs LOTS of new songs on the pipe organ in LOTS of styles. Well, provided you have high enough Pipe Organ skill.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@HazzaPlumbob There is lots of food…er, normal sims…walking around FH.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@TheSimDoughnut There’s some neat detail on the radiators when you zoom up close. Great job by the art team.

— Aaron Houts (@SimGuruHouts) January 10, 2017

Watch out, sometimes there’s a 🕷️crawling on the new decorative spider webs! #TheSims4 Vampires pic.twitter.com/BvZ9wZ4VR9

— Aaron Houts (@SimGuruHouts) January 10, 2017

@Cinderellimouse Hint: the rips aren’t part of any specific wallpaper. Use ’em wherever!

— Aaron Houts (@SimGuruHouts) January 10, 2017

@Frimlin @Cinderellimouse I *think* it’s 3×2, but don’t have it in front of me at the moment.

— Aaron Houts (@SimGuruHouts) January 10, 2017

@hisokamemes If you mean the spiders, they’re only on the spider webs (and they’re not there all the time).

— Aaron Houts (@SimGuruHouts) January 10, 2017

@hisokamemes They’re decorative objects that you can place in Build Mode.

— Aaron Houts (@SimGuruHouts) January 10, 2017

@Cinderellimouse @SimGuruNinja @TheSimScraper Haha, it’s not a fish. You might change your mind when you see it in action!

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@daniel_willyan @SimGuruNinja @SimGuruHouts Yes, and some of the UI updates that went in for Aliens in the last patch were added for Vamps.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@daniel_willyan @SimGuruNinja @SimGuruHouts There will be more trailers before launch.

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@luthsthings @SimGuruNinja Yes!

— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017

@Vihisha @Frimlin @SimGuruMegs @SimGuruHouts Wallpapers, floors… the variants are outta control this time.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@TFSxxx @AhmedKallala @SimGuruMegs There IS a dark meditation tho. Just not on the coffin.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@rjhenn14 @SimGuruMegs @SimGuruHouts Jen got it. The spiderwebs, cracks, rips, ivy plants. All available to be put on any wall surface.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@SebbyFuqua No. Kids won’t exhibit their vampirism until they become Teens. They are vamps; just super novice at it.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@catloverplayer @SimGuruDrake I’m guessing we’ll do an even split between CAS, Build, and Live mode. It’s going to be super fun.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@LuckyLunayre And aliens don’t have good plasma. Vamps can’t feed from them. Yuck!

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@TheSimScraper @SebbyFuqua lol. Maaaaaayyyyyyybbbbbeeeeee. (I love the new bassinet!)

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@JulinhoXD2001 We have some new lot traits and aspirations.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@LuckyLunayre Ghosts are plasma free.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@daniel_willyan @Frimlin @SimGuruMegs @SimGuruHouts No dif breeds, but lots of customizable options: clothes, face parts, build objects, etc

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017

@iamnothereokay The sun is not safe for a vampire anywhere! (The shade is okay though) The severity is based off your strengths/weaknesses.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 11, 2017

@iamnothereokay Yeah! Lots of songs in various styles. A couple we’ll play at the livestream that will make everyone smile.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 11, 2017

@Howdy_Simmer Right? I’ll follow up tomorrow with our audio director for info. (We have a simlish version too! 😎)

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 11, 2017

@Cinderellimouse The wallpapers in this pack are outta control. Some excellent details and sheens. Wait ’till you see them live.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 11, 2017

@julyveegaming @SimGuruRusskii There is indeed a Vampire admission rule.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 11, 2017

@Gemelos_Vargas @SimGuruMegs There’s a way to hunt & cure, but I won’t tell you how just yet. Vampire Hunting will make for cool stories!

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 11, 2017

Vampire Kids: they can’t use powers until teenager, but they can still look the part. Allowed to use vampire eyes, skin tones, and ears.

— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 12, 2017

Big enough for multiple coffins and plenty of plasma fruit.
2 30×30’s, 2 30×20’s, and a 40×30. @SimGuruNinja @MrsXerxes
