can we acknowledge that kayla’s sim matched the description of the suspect
Lol that was my first thought, minus the jeans
Yes! I forgot to mention that in my comment that she could’ve arrested the Sim. 😂
Like in the Hall Monitor episode of Spongebob 😭
My favorite annoyance in this career is sometimes the person you have to arrest is a raging werewolf. so you cant arrest them.
I believe if you restrict them to moonwood mill they won't show up in the careers! you can do so in the settings
@@chachatje I have them restricted, but both times it's been Greg, so I assume he just doesn't care about rules
I honestly understand how something like this can be missed considering how old GTW is, but there reeeeally should be more robust compatibility testing between individual packs to avoid stuff like this. If major gameplay features of older packs can be broken by newer ones that's kind of a problem lmao
It makes it more realistic
@@allisin9743 dang that does suck. 😅
My favorite bug happened a long time ago. I found the suspect, arrested them, and when I went back to the Police Station, the suspect was gone. I couldn't lock them up, or interrogate them, or anything. They were gone. I kept issuing APB after APB, but the suspect would always disappear at the station. I finally figured out what was happening: the game had randomly assigned the police chief as the criminal. At the crime scene, the Sim was the criminal, but back at the station, they were the chief.
The perfect crime! Lol
Was he arrested for public indecency after showing in the rain so much??
Yes that always happens to me!! So frustrating lol
Ain‘t that just like real life…
That's very realistic!
What’s weird to me is if you have a baby you see the doctor but if you commit a crime there’s no police
@@user-fc8nw5dn9n really?! I always make it legal. I may have to make it illegal that sounds crazy! Lol
It’s funny how we have a detective career but no robbers or actual evil sims
Carl Sims Guide made a burglar mod 😈
There is a criminal career tho
There’s a specific interaction with the chief called “talk to chief”that’s marked with the badge. You have to do that interaction for it to mark off that you talked to the chief. My biggest issue is that my chief doesn’t come into the building anymore. He spawns way down the road and never leaves, so I have to run way off the lot to talk to him lol
The biggest problem is suspects having cold and hot weather wear so they don't actually wear the clothes theyre supposed to in the APB...😅
Oh god that's such a big oversight nooo 😭
To be fair, if I had just committed a crime I would probably change clothes to be less recognizable too
@@SLorraineE Very good point😂😂😂
I've played this career many times. A trick when you get the "go on patrol" requirement is to go on patrol, then go straight back to headquarters. You'll immediately be given other tasks, and not have to worry about going on patrol. (Which, as you've noticed, is really bugged.)
Also, when gathering evidence, always gather much more evidence than they request you to get. The more clues you have, the easier it is to catch the suspect. The problem with the clothing clues is that they don't take account of weather; the clues always reference everyday clothing. You may have to use MCCC dresser to force anyone you encounter to wear their everyday outfit, to make sure you have the right suspect. Or just get enough clues that you'll get multiple references for hair and eye color.
When you have to arrest the right person and you have at least 4 or 5 tips you can pause the game as soon as you arrive on the "arrest" lot. Then you search for the only other sim that is hanging around there - that is the "criminal". If you wait to long, other sims will spawn and then you have to search on your own.
@@Leiandra18 This is true... usually. I've occasionally spawned on a lot with two other Sims at exactly the same time (my game is set to pause on load), and then you have to finagle a bit. MCCC dresser is a great help in that case.
Another mod that helps is the Get Sim Info mod. It will tell you exactly what role each Sim has on the lot, whether "suspect" or "decoy", in this case. That's kind of cheaty, but it's another option if you're desperate.
honestly it's not bugged you walk around waiting for a fight after fight you can give tickets as for any house crime you go to you also need to search for clues the more clues you have makes it easier to find the sim that is wrong i played this many many times
I keep having a bug with the interrogation table. I can't even click it 😭
@@natwixterthan18 silly question but do you definitely have a suspect available to interrogate
the police chief constantly being naked/showering outside made me weak, like im pretty sure thats work place harassment, but also, being the sims its insanely funny
We need an opposing burglar career. I was hoping that was gonna be our hot update, since stolen items can be refered to as "hot"
i think this is my first time watching someone play the detective career, i always forget it even exists if i’m being honest 😭 thanks for the upload as always simsie
I didn't even know it existed, nobody ever plays it😭😭
The detective career is actually probably my favorite out of the three. I love looking for suspects based on clues. The doctor and scientist one feel more repetitive, plus you run out of time because you have to keep walking in those huuuge lots. The only downside is the constant loading screens in this one.
Mine too! It's the one I go back to the most often.
Rebuilt the scientist lab so they did not spend so much time walking, and put the darn telescope on the freaking ground.
Noooo, my favorite is scientist! I like being a mad scientist or evil scientist. In the game. Of course.
It can be repetitive, but you can make your own fun.
I always fail at patrol duty, I sincerely never passed without cheating but I like other aspects of the career.
I like the alien world in the scientist career but the tasks are always weird. I have asked so many coworkers for materials but rarely done anything with any of them. And they ask you to make potions you don’t have any ingredients for 😅 once you reach the top of a career they should let you just do what you want in the workplace.
It’s not the sims without bugs!! They’ve just become life at this point!
That’s true😂
True I got so excited today because I got my first t pose glitch!
@@UrLocalHellspawn yoo congrats!
@@TheRainbowMnM thanks it happened in the high school 😭
@@UrLocalHellspawn LMAO I get that one everytime I reset one of my sims 🤣 they just T pose for a bit then go about their day
What would be cool and needed is them going back and re-doing old packs, similar to the pack refresh (that inexplicably happened once and never again) but the focus is on making the packs and its features work as intended. Pause releasing new content, or most likely release kits alongside these "refreshes" so that the team's energy can be focused entirely on fixing what doesn't work and improving what does.
I've never actually had a problem with the patrols. I don't know how it's working fine for me, but it is. Usually it's the sims that spawn with me that immediately start fighting or cursing at me, so it's a matter of like two minutes and I'm back at the station. The only bug for me is probably the chief, because the task that tells me to talk to them never completes. But that's such a minor thing I don't really mind.
same for me 🤔
same with me but the chief talk actually works for me. i wonder why it’s different
Also same for me, even for the Chief thing, but I suspected I was supposed to do that on the first day right away and didn't.
Have you clicked on the "talk to chief" dialogue option on the chief, because I've never had that problem
I wonder if in Kayla's case it's because she has NAPs turned off or one of her mods is influencing things like NAPs and it's aggressively deterring that sort of NPC behavior (it's probably the case that NAPs use the same code since Get to Work came out long before Eco Lifestyles, you just can't influence the "suspect" behavior and it's somehow more temporary) and in your case, since it's just the chief, it's because some other AI code is taking priority, cancelling it out or gumming up the works, and keeping the chief from responding to it in any way that triggers completion.
I recently played the Detective Career and my Sim retired as chief of police. Her wife was a global superstar author who wrote a book called My Wife The Cop. Loved arresting Sims so much fun. Also a number of police officer Sims showered in the rain almost every Sim day. Madness but hugely entertaing
we stan lesbian detective and author
I was just playing the detective career and "the talk to the chief" interaction was somethig that got me stumped too, but if you go through the different interactions you can do, you will find one that says "talk to Chief" or something like that with a little icon next to it. 16:55
You can find it under “Small Talk”
As someone who kinda likes this career here's what you can think about next time:
1:"Talk to the chief" is an interaction. There's a specific interaction you have to choose.
2: On patrol you have to remove yourself from the conversation for them to get into a fight or litter. I agree that patrol is annoying though. It is!
3: The suspects description is in everyday clothes so they can look different if they're in another season.
4: Why do people shower in the rain at the station?! Happens to me all the time too. 😂😂
Stanley Humphrey lore includes him willing to do anything for money, except be a cop LMAO love that
Iconic tbh
The hotdog has got his priorities straight
Lol. Stanley is too chaotic to be a cop!
I can see Stanley using the iconic groucho marx sentence: "I did terrible things for money in my life...... like waking up at 7 am and going to work".😂
based
I always thought the police station and the hospital should be base-game locations, based in the base-game world. Like, it should be where the park is in WIllow creek.
Kelsey recently did the detective career for peach gen and it seemed okay. James Turner was also doing a test run with it on his members only channel and it seemed OK except when he cheated to jump levels. Not sure if they used any unusual mods. I haven't tried it recently. I know when I did you shouldn't really jump around... but that was before the fears were added.
her reno of the police station actually broke it, but she doesn't know :\
I think it is different for everyone. I have tried everything to make it work, but interrogate suspect never works.
@@selenasky7840 that's kinda a thing with all the GTW career lots, if you renovate it so much that it's different from the original, it causes issues in sims' behaviours associated with that lot type
When it comes to talking to the chief, there is an actual "Talk to Chief" interaction :)
From my current experience, the doctor career literally demand a high logic skill. It's required to make some correct diagnostic of the patients.
In the detective career, you can get yourself on ANY lot from ANY world. Here again, a high logic skill is of GREAT help. The use those analysis apparatus is based on your logic skill : High logic skill = better result, often in less time. So, get yourself a chess table, a telescope or a microscope ASAP. Also, get a library and buy the three books about logic and studiously read them.
Get one of those wall trash chute. They cost §0 each. Bonus, you never need to empty them and they can't get knocked over.
I love these pack revisiting videos so much! It's fun to see how much the game has changed since 2014. 💞💞
When I played peach generation I realized the apb described their everyday outfit and not necessarily what they were even wearing and it took me literally days to understand how to the interrogations
'Talk to the chief' is a specific interaction. It really needs to pop up on the main screen when you click on them though because it took me days to find!
The biggest issue of the career is that every task takes soooo long and there’s not enough time to do them all
The way you get the credit for talking to the chief is: You go under friendly, small chat, and then it'll pop up as talk to the chief.
For the interrogation of the suspects, the bar is good, you want to fill it and certain things work better depending on the sim. Some sims prefer evidence and the Good Cop, where others do better when you are a Bad Cop. Also, I found that having the perk where you learn all the sims traits as soon as you introduce yourself is super helpful.
One more thing: if this ever gets a pack refresh, I hope they actually include the police in game. Sims can call the police on one another, you can call the police on sims. If they don't want to do guns since its to violent, they can use tasers or batons to wrestle sims or arrest them. You can be arrested if you do something bad. If you don't have enough simoleons to pay bail, then they have to stay in there for a certain amount of days. Depending on which season they can miss things like Winterfest or Harvestfest and it can impact your Sims negatively. I think that can be fun for gameplay.
Honestly I played with this career recently and it is kind of fun. The citations aren’t bugged you just have to look around for a little bit. You can be mean to angry sims and they’ll fight you and then you give them a citation for that. It is repetitive, but I think it’s very creative and interesting compared to the other active careers since you do actually visit different lots throughout your day.
This is such a coincidence! I just recently, like this month, went back and replayed the detective career. One of the people I had to arrest was another detective so I couldn’t arrest her!! Thank god for mcc because I had to make her quit so I could do my task or whatever 😭 but somehow not as buggy as I thought it would be
i’ve never actually seen gameplay of this career
bro i love just spawning in a place as a detective and pausing and scouring the entire area and running up to one of the first people i see who fit the description because it’s usually almost always them💀
I have literally NEVER played this career. It still has the star next to it whenever my sims go to get a job… and I’ve had Get To Work for four years now.
Kayla, "Talk to the Chief" is a dialogue under the Friendly Category. it took me AGES to figure that out. It's a specific thing you need to click on.
Thank you for your videos. My childhood, family dog was put down at 3 pm today, and your video is helping the mood. I can't thank you enough. :)
Sending love to you, I hope you’re okay
I’m so sorry for your loss 🥺❤️
I‘m so sorry for your loss.
i’m so sorry, sending love 🤍
Heal soon ❤❤❤❤
Oh god you need this job for the peach gen too
the pleasant sisters are my favorite townies, so i play with lillith a lot, and her being a cop has got to be the most hilarious thing 😂
I’ve literally never played this career despite it being the first option in the “Find A Job” catalog. I hope one day they do a refresh of this and the other packs (like pre-seasons) because it could really be so good and I’d love to see how they would breathe fresh life into it
Interesting how your revisits to the doctor and detective careers have matched up to James Turner's remodeling of the hospital and the police station!
I love Kayla not besmirching our beloved Stanley by turning him into a cop
I can confidently say I have still never ONCE played through this career and I've been playing for 4 years now!
I think the detective career is my favorite of the active careers. I’ve done it several times. For talk to chief, there’s actually a social named exactly that so only using that option will tick off that task. I think interrogating ticks off when you get the confession from the suspect so once it’s give you the they’re guilty pop up, use the get confession social. Going on patrol is hit and miss for me. I’ve definitely had it work more than not.
I rebuild the Police Station a while ago - That helped sooooo much.
The police career is actually my favorite of the get to work jobs. It just isn't intuitive, like when it tells you to go on patrol, just go and then immediately return to the station for other things to do, you still get the points. You also don' have to remember the clues as they are in your notebook. Also until they added more traits having the observant trait made it easier to find people as seasons allows them to change out of their base clothes so those clues don't help.
I'm surprised to see all the glitches you got, since I only ever had one issue when playing through the career. If the weather was hot or cold the suspect would be wearing clothes that arent matching their apb. Thankfully I was in the not so berry legacy so I had the upgraded simray on me.
Triplespeed does cause sims to stop functioning correctly for me, and it was really bad for this career, especially on patrol.
I got a vampire through the detective career. The super speed and the ability to detect personality came in handy a lot while on patrol.
I actually personally love the detective stuff, being I love that aspect of things I actually enjoy it more than the doctor stuff, I love the more hands-on nature of it rather than the beginning of the doctor career where every single thing you have to pass off to someone else till you get promoted like three or four times.
I think this career is really fun when it works, and really not fun when it doesn’t
This is the career that would really, really benefit from open world. All the load screens kill it.
i've never played the detective career because i simply refuse to let any of my sims be a cop. maybe some day i will make one with really no moral values to make them a cop
I’m pretty sure you can ask other sims about the suspect and they’ll often point you in the right direction. Idk why the game doesn’t tell you that and expects you to work it out.🤷🏽♀️
I love the detective career! I don’t think I experienced these glitches but it’s been a bit since I’ve played. What’s interesting to consider, though, is this pack predated seasons. So when it says the suspect is wearing shorts, it may change depending on the season and outfit the sim has for the season.
I love watching you play old packs! It would be cool to see you play with vampires or spell casters next!!
I have get to work, had it for years and yet, NEVER played this career. This is all new to me.😂
This is one of my favorite careers I’ve had a couple of my sims have had it’s a lot of fun! I enjoyed watching you play as well Kayla!
I would love to see one on the scientist career. I recently discovered that the tainted version of the Rose Perfume serum from that career can cause sims to light themselves on fire.
10:45 First time I ever tried that career, my chief randomly came to my house and beat the darn out of my sim for no reason. They had never spoken before and now they hate each other
The science career isn't too bad. The science lot is too spread out and would be good to rebuild
Info for if all PCs are occupied: I'm pretty sure that as soon as you click on an occupied PC to do something, the sim sitting in front of it will leave their seat. (I hope I wasn't imagining it the last time I played, it's been a while...)
i just used the detective career for the first time not to long ago and it wasnt the best i traveled to my lot and was trying to identify my criminal and it was snowing so everyone was in their wintertime clothing so to find the criminal i had to mc command them into evryday and it took me a sec so in that time period i found the criminal but the other sims since i changed them out of their cold waether fits started droppin like flies and dying from freezing lol but i finished the case
Yesyesyes please make a video on the science career too!! I think that one's the most fun of all the active careers! (second one is acting)
I played in this career recently. The sims don't actually match the clues when you do an APB to find them. So keep collecting clues until it you have more then 4 or 5 clues I believe. And when you go, there will be only one sim who can be arrested. But don't rely on identifying information given to you. I believe that the career is buggy at best. Like when lilsimsie went on patrol, the only way to give citations is after someone is done fighting. And even then, they don't always fight. You might have to return to the station and go back on patrol. And the game will tell you to get to know the citizens, don't. Especially if the sims look like they are arguing, back talking to them can cause them not to fight and they will delay the fighting, costing you time that you don't have to finish the day successfully.
There's a literal 'Talk to Chief' interaction. It's in the small talk category. I played this career last week with one of my gameplay save files and it worked great. Soon as I got to patrols the sims spawned and when I pressed play they waisted no time fighting each other, didn't even have to run toward them, my sim had a front row view lol. Only time it didn't work was when I forgot the npc roles mod file in my mods folder. The no random townies mod confused the game and made it hard for me to finish tasks with suspects since the game couldn't spawn them.
I’m watching while there is also a thunderstorm going on irl for me😂 quite the experience
For the "talk to the chief" interaction there's a specific social marked with the detective badge. I didn't get it at first either, but if you hover your mouse over the job task it explains it
I remember having so much fun with this career
For all the reasons you just mentioned, I have always made my Peach gen go to uni (and turned aging off or on long lifespan) so that I start higher up in the career. There is no need for the patrol thing after a while. And if you spend most of the crime scene investigating picking up clues and photos and evidence, you only need to spend your workdays grinding out clues on the board and in the lab, and then you get to issue apb’s in no time. But that kinda beats the purpose of the career, maybe. A little grindy, but I find it to be the most effective way to get to level 10 here.
My head-canon is that Magnolia Prom is between Newcrest and Willow Creek and the city you can see in the background of Newcrest is San Myshuno. Oasis springs Is near Del Sol Valley, but Strangerville is somewhere else.
The "talk to chief" option is under "small talk".
I've also never had problems with going on patrol.
You can take pictures of every piece of evidence you collect.
It speeds things up to just do both on every single item.
Too bad you found it so difficult to navigate.
1. Patrol: Someone above said it could be an issue caused by NAP, which I can't speak to because I don't have that pack. But, in my experience, if I don't interact with the Sims on patrol, they will fight or litter faster. I just pop in, say nothing, then watch whichever Sim is angry. They will usually start a fight or kick over a trash can and then it's citation time.
2. Loading screens: Evidence can be used for any case. So if you go to a crime scene and question every witness, take every picture, gather every piece of evidence, and take it all back to the station, then analyze as many as you need to feel confident in your APB (I usually went for 5 or so clues, I always wanted age, gender, hair, and a trait because clothes could change with weather). Then after you finish with that case, get a new assignment and you can use the evidence you already gathered for the next one. Head straight for the analyzer or computer and process that evidence. I got to the point where I only had to leave the station every two or three cases. And once you've gotten a couple promotions, they don't ask you to go on patrol anymore. So that cuts your load screens down to just when you're going out to make an arrest.
Kayla, the detective career doesn't really work, in my peach generation, every time I had to use the TOOL mod to place the boss and the criminals in the correct place, every time I arrived on the lot, the boss spawned very far from the police station and, worse, she was a celebrity.
i kept wanting to play the detective career so i kept trying it but it never worked, rly want them to fix these careers because they’re literally broken
"At least you can put on a uniform right-side out" wow, the SimCity P.D. has such a high bar to clear... :P
I cant interrogate the suspects because the sims stand up in the middle of the interrogatory every damn time!!
Update: It was an outdated mod xD I delete it and now I can interrogate suspects correctly
I remember one time my clues were a teen with red hair and when I issued an apb 2 teens with red hair spawned in the minute the lot loaded (I also think they both had a trait in common as well). I liked the career, something about trying to figure out who was the suspect using the clues you gathered made it very engaging for me. The downside is obviously the constant loading screens you have to sit through.
On patrol if you keep walking around and don't let your sim be pulled into convo, the angry sims will start to fight each other. And I'm pretty sure "Talk to the Chief" is a specific interaction. Evidence photos are mostly graffiti and a lot of them are very small images. Asking about suspect will have other sims point towards the suspect, and the more data you gather before you issue an APB, the more details you will have on the suspect.
yes please make a video on the scientist career, that one is my favorite! watching dan and phil play it is what got me into the sims lol
The Way I screamed when I saw 1 minte AGO!! Love your videos Simsie!
The science career is one of my favorites. I also really enjoyed refurbishing the lab.
(sees all this stuff stolen) "who does that??" *flashback to Stanley's get rich scheme of stealing everything from other Sims*
The father in my Sims family got fired from his job because of the option I chose on one of the career pop ups. So I made him become a detective. Unfortunately I wanted him to be in the business career because of his asperation but I decided to go with it instead of just making him reapply for the business career. I usually play the doctor career. I choose scientist the least out of the 3.
16:56 there is an interaction called "talk to chief" just like the "get to know" interaction, that's why it wasn't filling for you
ATE AS ALWAYS 🙏🏼
When it says talk to the chief on the tasks there is a special option to talk to them in I think the friendly options so you can't just talk to the chief normally.
The Sims 4 Season's DLC, I swear, they made the storms really good, lol! Simsie being like, "The Storm is scaring me!" I mean, yeah, it is terrifying, lol! Especially when the lighting strikes, like jeez, I wasn't ready for that.
nooooo! that's my favorite career. i like creating multiple offices for my captains and chiefs.
Didn't realize this was a rags to riches! Off to watch!!
I just started playing the detective career and I haven’t had as many bugs, but the only packs I have are Get to Work and Cottage Living so maybe some of the other expansions cause some of the bugs. Every time I go on patrol the Sims that spawn with me immediately break out in fights and I can write them up. I DO have to always kick other Sims off the computers though 😂
me playing get to work police career for the first time ever since buying the pack two years ago
2 hours later Kayla uploads a tutorial basically
but my game wasn't bugged at all!
been playing through detective myself, and it is definitely built for base game (i got Get to Work for free, never bought anything else). very few issues occurred for me in comparison to this video. which, when you consider that this was one of the first packs, makes quite a bit of sense
I would love to see you do the scientist career. Yes please!!
I find it easier to click on the sim, click toddler/infant care, and the just command them to feed/change/bath the baby. Cause if you click the objects they ignore you and if you have the baby "ask for help" they only do it correctly half the time. But I get a 90% success rate with clicking infant/toddler care on the adult sims.
I would love to see you play the vet career I think you’d be good at it !! ❤️
I actually really like the detective career. The retail part is the worst, so buggy and doesn’t work right, like employees don’t even show up
I couldn't complete the detective career for Not So Berry cause every time I tried to interrogate a suspect the suspect and my sim would glitch right at the end of the interrogation and it would restart.... I had to cheat the case completes to reach the top of the career 🙃
If you keep watching one of those angry stomping people while on patrol, they will usually either start a fight or knock something over. I've never had it take longer than a few minutes for something to happen.
Hello everyone hope you have/had a wonderful day/night!
I just got on PC and I got the GTW pack because it was on sale. I'm just here to say that this pack works perfectly fine, when you do NOT have any other packs. I guess packs like seasons, occult sims and so on, can sort of screw it over (the detective career at least). Sort of happy that I got the smooth gameplay right now, and I am having SO much fun with the Detective career but looking much forward to the scientist, i hear that's the best one.
I would love to see a video on the scientist career :D
I’m playing this in my current save. It took forever to get the patrol thing. Which is annoying but i def am enjoying this career again
