The Sims 3 Is a Perfectly Balanced game with NO EXPLOITS - Excluding Mind Control Only Challenge

- The Sims 3 is a classical family management simulator game allowing you to manage almost all aspects of life. Naturally, the DLCs decided to get wacky and add in some fun nonhuman types to play as like vampires and genies. Genies, however, are broken. As you can guess having a mind controlling genie that can fly and is immortal might be a bad addition for game balance. So today we ask the question is the sims 3 a perfectly balanced game with no exploits excluding the mind control only challenge.
What you have seen here today is part of a fantastic perfectly balanced series on youtube where I go from game to game and break them with wacky exploits to gain things like unlimited gold. If you enjoyed this then be sure to check out more. The style is similar to RT game and callmekevin in parts. A large influence on this series has come from Valefisk and The Killian Experience.

Title: The Sims 3 Is a Perfectly Balanced game with NO EXPLOITS - Excluding Mind Control Only Challenge
#sims3 #challenge #funny - เกม
Today the sims 3 is exactly 10 years old
Or is it?
I have played the sims 3 before
On play station 3
But did you install it from 47 floppy discs?
No
Just imagine, by 2030 technology may have finally progressed enough to run The Sims 3
And Minecraft at a Max render
Bro for fucking real. I have Ryzen 5 and I can ran 2021 games and not this dumb f game lol I'm really pissed because it's my favorite game 😂
yeah EA will make origin no longer support it. remember what they did with sims 2?
get an fps limiter my man
Optifine mod makes it run so much better. I used to play Sims 3 on my laptop. Granted, it did become quite warm.
You gotta love how if this guy finds a stock image without watermarks he literally adds a watermark to it
Well not quite, those marked with his own water mark are images owned by him lol.. you can't just slap your logo on someone's elses photo just because they don't have a water mark...
So either he made the picture himself, or it was donated to him
@@Gendreau113 I’m pretty sure he just bought them off a stock image site
@@Gendreau113 Or he doesn't own the pictures and it's satirical and he's doing it for a joke.
@@Serrifin possible, but legally you can't claim something is your own and use it in your video if you monetize said content, so him using these images without permission wouldn't be allowed, but yes if he paid for it that would be different
@@David-ud9ju A joke is one thing, but if he monetizes these video for income, that's fifferent. You can't use someone else's product in your monetized content without permission/buying it. So I doubt it's just a "joke" unless he doesn't monetize any TH-cam video, and thus collects zero income from them
its weird finding out not everyone knows how many people still play the sims three over the sims four
I'd probably happily play sims 3 with tons of mods over sims 4 forever.
Sims 3 was the best
Yeah Sims 3 is the best sims game imo
yeah i have both sims 3 and 4 and after about a few months with the sims 4, i just HAD to go back to 3, its so much better. It has so much more personality, with lore and an abundance of traits with so much stuff coming with a single pack. This is just personal preference of course, but I really do prefer the more "realistic" art style of 3. The only issue would be the amount of lag - although that's never been an issue for me and I've only ever played on non-gaming laptops. Would highly recommend!
Honestly I like Sims 3 but they have the ugliest sims out of the whole franchise. Sims 2 is the best imo, even though they're not as expansive as 3
Spiff: "So, I *love* swimming pools. Swimming pools are brilliant."
Me: "Oh no"
After watching spiff videos I dont go near swimming pools
xD we all know whats going down
Swimming pools are a Sim deathtrap. If you go to any channel where Sims die, swimming pools are always a good culprit, if not the main one.
I read this as he was saying it haha!
Burglar steals the pool ladder
In 6 years of marriage, I can't recall a single time I've ever seen my husband make tea. He starts watching your channel, and comes and asks me where the teapot is and what kind of tea we have. 😂
Other questions asked: How long does it take for the water to heat up? Will it make a noise when it does? *tea starts bubbling* Is that the noise? 😂
This is golden!
So pure! I converted my friend from coffee to tea. I mean, he still drinks coffee (for energy?) but he gets diarrhea from it so why he keeps drinking that shit just beats me
@Marcus Fenix coffee is dirty bean water that tastes bitter and gives you the runs. I honestly don't understand why people drink it.
@Marcus Fenix you *don’t* need to add shit to tea to make it taste good. i drink 6+ cups a day of various teas and only add anything 5% of the time.
"Hopefully I can make this Sim before my computer catches on fire". I felt this. Use to play Sims 3 on my laptop. Left it on and afk for an hour come back and my laptop has blue screened and could cook an egg on it
"I'm just going to create a swimming pool"
*Will Smoth and every other sim starts sweating nervously.*
"It looks beautiful, there are some graphics over there." -spiff 2019
Honestly, a game with graphics is easily a candidate for the best game of all time. Graphics are great :)
>Spiff "I'm going to build a massive swimming pool."
>Me, knowing Sims' shenanigans, "Oh, no"
*RT'S hunger games maze intensifies*
Wait a second, you bought those stock pictures and then added your own watermark on top so that they still are like stock photos?
Yes
How to meme while refraining from breaking any copyright laws
He did it (at least partly) because the viewers wanted it^^
Yeah he brought it up in his first video after going away because of copyright issues
Amazing, right?
It's the little stories in the midst of the tragedy that makes it work. Two of the sims in the few hours that spent together mindcontrolled and trapped in a pool together fell in love with each other, you can see the one that lived longer feeling heartbroken after the other died at 31:22.
You misunderstand the Boston Tea Party... they loved tea so much that they tried to brew the world's largest cup of tea... in the harbor....
Viktor Samoja i hear they almost brewed the whole building
I guess there was too much salt so the British Empire disowned them.
As an American, I fully agree
They were pissed that they suddenly had to pay extra for tea. In classic American fashion some said "Fuck you!" and just grew their own tea. Others broke stuff. LoL :P
Note to self check comments before commeting
Spif, total war three kingdoms has tea as a luxury resource... just to let you know...
@@thespiffingbrit YYESSSSS
@AlphaChocolateTruffle yes
Well, that tea would have to compete with grains, but eh, the Chinese seemed to love tea anyway...
This will be glorious.
@@ARCDisrupterX yea and sugar supplements-opium
Do you realise what you've done? Every time someone reminds the British that there's tea in China, or any country really, they start another war. It's basically their 'thing'.
I still play Sims 3 with all expansions. Your version was definitely lacking some updates! The game is so complex that I still have not come across every situation after 10 years. For a start I have not yet had a genie sim!
Thats so crazy
@RectalDiscourse Un wtf no, Into the Future is hot shit? Supernatural? University? Night Life? Seasons? I think you mean stuff packs, those are shit.
RectalDiscourse just pirate it dlc and all thats what i did

Jesus christ you guys are psychotic
The sims isn't so much resource intensive, as it is extremely poorly coded. You should turn on vsync in your GPU settings, as the game for some reason decides to use any and all resources available to maximizing the framerate, even if you have a modern day god computer, it will simply make the computer render the game at 12000 frames per second and will cause your computer to overheat. The game also refuses to do regular save game optimizations and world cleanup, so your saves will become increasingly bloated with irrelevant information, and corrupt themselves, so you will need community patches.
Dear god.
EA!
Dont forget to install NRAAS
And get a third party program designed to update Sims 3 to recognise your modern graphics card
And go into the coding to ensure it uses MORE THAN ONLY 2 RAM.
Its not the Sims series as a whole, its literally just TS3. Sims 2 definitely has problems with save corruption but if you know what NOT to do its very easy to avoid. TS3 will break itself or your computer, whichever comes first, no matter what you do when playing it unless you get third party fixes. And as painfully boring and shallow as TS4 is, it definitely improved on the technical issues the series had problems with previously, though its certainly not without its own smaller technical issues like simulation lag and visual glitching
@@elvingearmasterirma7241 that reminds me of my university. Expensive computers running windows XP.
People were opening the cases and stealing one of the RAM chips because it didn’t make a difference.

I came looking for this comment. 👍
Would have preferred him naming the chapter Robin Williams, but this works too.
I love that Mind Control in sims3 is broken, it leaves the controlled sims homeless after it wears off
Oh THATS what happened
Probably because it's just the debug interaction to add sims to your household but with a different name (In which case when the mind control is over it's the same as removing them from your household which doesn't return them to their household obviously)
Greatest career - astronaut, go to work for 1 day a week, if you go in a good mood you get promoted every time you go to work get a bonus and then get 6 days off. Was earning around 200k a week at one point
Yeah, Military was the easiest job to hit max.
I just know that right now, damn after a decade of playing this game still surprise me.
I did not know that, guess what imma do next time around
The greatest job ever is being santa. 1 labour day and 364 days of vacations.
writer. Once you master writing you get around 50k initial payout for your book. With all the right perks you can knock out most books in a day. All books come with royalties for a time. Usually pays 1/5th the initial payout every week for 5-10 weeks. Now do 7 books like this. You get initial payout of 350k + 70k a week.
Every now and again you get a best seller which is like 3x the value and has longer payouts.
If you pick the right perks your sim will also enjoy writing, do it faster, make more money from it, and last longer while doing it.
I love it when a game hasn't got an fps cap and floors your hardware even in the menu.
I would still be playing TS3 and making worlds for it in the year of our blord 2021 if I could actually get it to not keep crashing on my new upgraded PC and access the store items I'd bought back in the day. TS4 couldn't get my attention since I couldn't make entire custom neighborhoods like in 2 and 3.
have you edited the .ini file to include your graphics card? That plus the smooth path and Nraas' overwatch did wonders for my game

Saying tea is "even worse" than coffee implies that tea is also bad, just not AS bad.
Checkmate.
I did find that a bit odd!
We must warn him
Send tea to the Boston harbor. It’ll mix well with the water there.
Sims 3 has a bug with new GPU’s that has it pinned at max utilization. You need to mod the game to add support for modern GPU’s.
You also can use your EA origin account to log-in.
But where is the fun in not burning out your GPU?
What mod is that?
I think you MIGHT be missing the point of Spifs channel, or.....at least you were when you posted this. ;)
You should also use CF explorer to allow the game exe to use more than 3GB of RAM but you also have to increased the RAM allocation in the config files from the default 1GB. No clue why EA didn't update this in the 2014 patch.

Still better than The Sims 4. Removing create-a-style was the biggest deal-breaker. I can't get nearly as cool outfits and furniture in 4. The open neighborhoods of 3 is also great, I love jumping between my sim at the park and my sim at home instantly. Third reason I prefer 3: horses.

It's ok, almost all modern coffee is descended from a clipping of a coffee plant that was in the Queen's garden.
I still play the sims 3 & loving it every single day!
I have idea: Use martial artists as money maker. You only need Supernatural and World Adventures
This is how:
- You need two person. One to pick up the gem and sold it, one for martial artists. For faster and better results, martial artists need to have disciplined trait. For picker it doesn't matter.
- Go to China and buy board breaker
- Build martial arts skills for martial artists to the point that is sufficient enough for breaking space rock board and don't forget to break oak board or higher (in order to get an achievement in which you get gems for breaking space rock board) around 150 times.
- Prepare your gem cutter (from Supernatural) and a sim to cut gems everytime martial artists break space rock block.
- Get every gem and cut it. If you want better result, get 10 different gems before you cut them and then you'll get heart-shaped cut, the most valuable cut you can get in gem cutter aside from spire cut with easiest way possible.
I use this method for quite a time and it is effective for someone who don't like their sims having a job.
His outfit looks like something you'll see on a randomized sim in Sims 4. Oh jesus.
I feel the pat on the back, it feels like hot liquid running town my ba- where the hell did all this tea come from???

Spiff is psychic. He knew that Will Smith would be a genie.
Don't you love when your computer is burning hot, then accidentally brushing your leg against it? And somehow get burns?
My old laptop used to tan my knee rather painfully.
I suspect they slowed down the game intentionally.
Wait..
Ssshhh....
*EA is watching..*
Nah, it sucked when I bought it new. On the old pc, it took about 5 minutes to save around 2010.
A lot of the worlds weren't put together properly or optimized. Isla paradiso ran at like 5 fps on my desktop back then cuz so many sims would get stuck on things, things wouldn't despawn, stuff like that.
The entirety of the Sims 3 is a buggy mess, which is sad given it is still superior in features to the other games
Welp mine worked fine.
Its 2020 and I'm still playing sims 3!
me too! the expansions make it so much more fun than the sims 4 tbh
I started my very first playthrough of Sims 3 in winter of 2021. Last time I played a Sims-game was Sims 1 well over 10 years ago.
I’d play it, but I’d rather not spend $800 dollars for a worse sims 4.
Me too
I just want to see a whole let´s play series of The Sims 3 and/or The Sims 4, you are just amazing. Havent laughed this hard in a long time.
2:52 "Serbia and Montenegro"
yeah that hasn't been around for a while...
he actually predicted the future of 2019 as will smith became the genie :O
"Chunkage" is now a word that I've added to my every day vernacular. Thank you so much for that.
Huh, this reminds me of an exploit that I discovered myself when I was playing the game. I would build a communi-tea lot with a basement full of VR-Headsets. For whatever reason, if you had your sim put on the headset and take it off, it would now be considered your property and you could pick it up off the ground to put in your inventory and sell. Each one would sell for several thousand, so that was practically considered one of my sim's jobs to "test out" VR-Headsets. Nice thing about this exploit is that any sim can do it. No magical powers required. I doubt that this was ever patched as balance was never something that the devs really seemed to care for. Which really should be pretty obvious when they actually recommend that you use cheat codes to enjoy the game. Also, in regards to the whole game performance thing, I do find it comical that the launcher actually suggests that you don't play the game with all of the expansion packs enabled. Rather they recommend that you only play a few expansion packs at a time....likely to improve performance.
I always play with all EPs on bc I can never remember what hair/clothes/furniture come with each game and don't wanna glitch out my town just bc I feel like not being bothered by the univeristy mascot today, or turning off seasons or something.
I really didn't notice at first but the spiffco logo is awesome! I love it!
I still regularly play the sims 3 cause I have almost all the packs and tons of mods, and I still plan to buy the rest of the packs. Needless to say when I play my computer acts as a small heater and my fans make it sound like my desktop is getting ready to take flight!
The Spiffing Brit: "I love swimming pools..."
Veteran Sims players: "Oh no..."

Hey Spiff, I'm from Germany and now finally buy some of this delicious Yorkshire tea. I watch your vids since a few weeks now and I have to try this luxurious drink!
Another exploit of the game is Red Berry Bean farming. The starting price of a low quality Red Berry Bean is $75, but as you farm them and their quality improves, you can be sweeping up to 20k per harvest.
I got it working on my rig, featuring an RTX 2080 and an i7 8700k. It runs at about 50% load for the GPU and about 30% load for the CPU. For hardware demands, this game was way ahead of its time; only now, 11 years after it launched, am I playing it on the hardware it needed.
Also, check out the Into the Future expansion for The Sims 3. As soon as you get to the future, the lot you start on is considered your home lot so you can take everything on it and sell it with the only consequences being that the stuff is gone. Lol

I enjoy your prattle, great content for playing in the background while doing something else.
having an evil genie being extremely powerful is at least pretty much what it says on the tin. I find other exploits in Sims 3 a lot worse. Like picking flowers you can immediately sell for a three figure sum - each. On a place where the stuff regrows almost instantly. Why does any sim work anything else, who pays such prices. Why has that economy not crashed. Or functional store content that often is basically a cheat item.
Sims 3 was my favorite for the simple reason that you could personally control the characters, and you didn't have to point and click.
Made the gameplay so much more fun when the characters weren't struggling to pathfind or randomly standing idle even while you have task in que.
Spiffingbrit used the godlike powers from tea to see the future and know that Will Smith puts out hits without needing to be in movies
the pictures of the random men with the watermarks is exactly my sense of humor
Sims 4 was like they took all the fun stuff from Sims 3, scrapped it and polished it up a little.
AHHHH finaly i can enjoy Sir Spiff's videos how they intended, i received my batch of Yorkshire Tea :D
