Hey guys, the clear winner of the previous poll, is more jobs.I think I have a really cool idea for making jobs a little more interesting, and would like your opinion:For each job you do, you would have a level and required stats.Every time you work, you choose wich customer to serve, but each customer has different requirements  (stat/time) and different rewards (money/exp/event). If you succesfully serve a customer, you gain experience and level up your job level (for that job), unlocking new customers with bigger rewards (and new events).Now before I go adding all that, I'd like to know: is this something that seems fun to you? :)

Mr.FeelGood

hope you incorporate charisma to this

faerin

Definitely, want to use all stats and make it more useful to level them up (as this would increase the chance of succes for a certain job/customer)

Justanx

Working at Club Neon as a busboy and then work up to Bartender or Bouncer. Some Vicy action or Amy. If mom is the superhero then as her sidekick lol

Mr.FeelGood

hope we get to interact with customers and co-workers

faerin

Well this will be an expanding thing as well (of course). At first I'm thinking pizza delivery and bar tending at Neon perhaps, but down the road: shop assistant, personal trainer, massage therapist, lifeguard, croupier, office work with your mom, etc. Would be a cool way to adding all kinds of events.

Thanny

I'd first want to see travel times made more reasonable. No job is fun if it takes too much of the day to get there and back without spending half the salary you make on travel (and then still too much).

faerin

That's something that will be addressed in the next update as well Thanny!

rather not say

I like this personal trainer idea. (Naughty Thoughts) :)

Eric Woodard

I like the idea so long as the jobs don't cut too deeply into the rest of the character's 'life', which travel time could play a big role. I definitely think it is only worth adding new jobs if there are some extra reasons to be doing them, including the events you mentioned, maybe extra items you can only get through the job. Also, having a few more things you can use money for would be good, as right now the only reason to keep working once you have purchased the existing stuff is to pay for travel.

faerin

Hey Eric, all good points! I agree and those are all things that I would like to address in the coming update(s)!

Doc Eros

Yeah, second what Eric says. Also they should not become a boring grind-fest.

Mars68

don't forget teaching assistant at Ashley's school! Just because she's farthest along we don't want to forget about her now.

Mars68

The work system needs improvement, but if you implement everything in your post I'm afraid it'll take too much time away from 'home activities'. Unless you can somehow adjust time segments so that each 'action' takes a very short time, so nothing is taken away from home time. btw 4 hours by subway from home to the gym seems excessive, don't you think?

Michael Duncan

Yes a job at the Gym, a relationship with the chick that works there, or maybe a bouncer at the club, for the same reason?

Trumpdog

looking forward to this update either way...grind or no grind^^

faerin

Yes, travel times will be adjusted in this update.

Yakiniku

First, why you need money for. Grind, special items, outfits, shopping etc. Second, what if a work place is just a new hunting grounds?

Matthew Lynch

Faerin I would like to put a suggestion for a job and it would be a photographer for a modelling agency or something similar.

Tao Dude

To reduce the coding/rendering burden, some of the jobs could be based on existing locations, like being a personal trainer at the gym, or a croupier at the Casino.

Tao Dude

Is there a prospect of a relationship with the Pizzeria owner, or is she just a source of work?

faerin

Oh they are, actually all of the planned jobs are based on exisiting (and planned) locations!

faerin

Eventually I want to add at least some events for all the NPC's.

faerin

Cool idea! That won't be included in this version, but I will add it my list for sure!

Trumpdog

so....is it....friday yet???=D

Furkan Toksöz

I want the officer lady =D ı hope that scene updated this week :D But whatever it updated,faerin knows how to do it :)
