OMG!!! UFO! (Easter Egg) PICS ADDED!!!!

[simaster8]

If you have a cooling tower or stonehenge in the neighbourhood, a ufo will appear very briefly next to it and it will flee away. I added a pic

I SWEAR!! I SAW ONE!!

I'm not lying!!

[gloss.]

really? Is it something that came with Pets, or not..?

[enchantedw0lf]

I had that happen when I placed the new stonehenge neighborhood object down. I think it is spawned by that. Then once the UFO has been spawned, it zips around everywhere randomly. It's great. Looks awesome in Strangetown.

[simaster8]

Hmm. I don't exectly know what spawns it. Stonehenge or Cooling Tower?

[Captain THPS4]

That's pretty cool! Maybe this is a new trend for future expansions. In OFB it was the flying pig float, and now with Pets it's the UFO....

[enchantedw0lf]

I think it is Stonehenge because I haven't placed the cooling tower down. I think it's odd looking. Not sure that I will ever use it, but I love Stonehenge!

[Onsimsnow]

I got that to and came here to post a thread but i found this! Yeh only i noticed that it was hovering over one of my crashed UFO decos.. i didnt have anything in there that triggered it that i got from PETS so its most likely something from before

[enchantedw0lf]

Hmmm... perhaps it is just a new "thing" Maxis added and it is not spawned by anything.

[Captain THPS4]

Yeah, maybe the difference between the pig and the UFO is just that the UFO is actually random like the Loch Ness Monster from Unleashed.

[sims2fanatic_SC]

I saw the pig in Pleasentview once after I added a regular hot air balloon and it was like what the hell I dont want a pig in there.
It went away and I havn't seen it again.

[joeySimzee]

There's a pig?! :blink: W-wait do you need pets for this?

[moonluck9]

No you need OFB.

[xXharp_babyXx]

Yeah, maybe the difference between the pig and the UFO is just that the UFO is actually random like the Loch Ness Monster from Unleashed.

Loch Ness Monster...? When did this happen!? :(
I missed out on so much in the sims 1 lol. I never knew about getting Santa, or the guinea pig disease, or this. :/

[sm0ke19]

lol.... i remember that that loch ness monster.......if you let the game sit on the neighborhood screen for a few mins at some point you would hear a kinda growl...and sim-nessie would appear and swim up the river/canal

ahhh memories

[simsample]

Thank goodness, when I saw the UFO I thought I was going mad... this thread has made me feel a lot better!

[Aleesha]

I had one too xD

[momicajack]

Is this something that happens in neighborhood view or while you are actually on a lot?

[xXharp_babyXx]

OH! That! I completely forgot about that! lol. I wanna see the UFO now, but I don't get my game 'til tomorrow at the earliest :(

[simaster8]

You see it i the neighbourhood

[simaster8]

Thank goodness, when I saw the UFO I thought I was going mad... this thread has made me feel a lot better!

Yeah. Same thing, I thought I was gonna have a heart-attack

[mpfromnl1986]

has anyone got pics yet. i wanna see it :D i placed stonehenge in my pleasantview neighborhood and waited forever but nothing happend. i want a UFO!! lol

[lovefrogs12]

I saw this yesterday. My brother was over and I just had it sitting on the neighborhood screen and happened to glance over and was like what?!?! I said I think a UFO just flew over my neighborhood, but I never saw it again.
I do have a stonehenge, and it did happen near where stonehenge is.

[chronicboredom]

I wonder if it improves abduction odds if a lot is placed next to one of this items, I think I may investigate! :P

[Jargon]

I got it from stonehenge as well.

I think it is adorable. It zips around like a hummingbird.

[Meems]

I've had that show up in Strangetown a couple of times, near the UFO crash site.

[Annique]

I have 2 stonehenges in my hood and ufo's appear randomly

[NH1]

Didn't see that in my game - yet...

[mokado]

OMG UFO!! Now, I don't want that Nuclear Central +/- 150 km from mine house :S

[*roxette]

Aww it looks ace!! I wanna see it in my game! Gonna have to watch more carefully in neighbourhood view now instead of just going straight into my lots...

[Sphinx47]

I saw it today in Downtown. The default one. It was right by the water tower. I saw blue light and moved up. It was checking out the wrecked UFO craft. Didn't take the pic though. :(

[SwirlyHill]

I have a screenshot of it on my gaming computer, which is not connected to the internet. Not to self: Wireless needed!

[GillianFan]

I saw it in my game too. woah

[SwirlyHill]

I saw mine above the 'Crash Site Crater' in Strangetown. It 'scanned' it with a blue light and flew off.

[CatInaPumpkin]

OMG this happened to me! i was freaked out, so i typed it in on google... it appeared just after i placed the stone henge down!

[PolterGeist44]

When I had gunmod cam mod, I'm not sure which neighborhood but I looked at the water and there was an ufo in the sky o.o

[Lavaster]

I gotta place the stonehedge in Strangetown, I never noticed the UFO! And I think I've placed the stone hedges but don't pay attention to anything...
Nevertheless, just to make sure, I'm placing both the tower and the hedge in my favorite 'hood.

[callieishere11]

that happens to me in all my neighborhoods, you have to be there for a long time to see one, i seen like a million of those before lol, at first i was like OH MY GAWD! but now im like, yeah yeah yeah, whatever, but hey, good job on spotting one!

[SimChelsey]

thats weird, i dont know wat stonehedge is but i saw a UFO in pleasentview downtown several times!?
maybe its just random?

[MrBlack]

Cool! I've never seen this... *starts game and looks for it frantically*

PS: The stonehenge is a nhood decoration object.

[midnightmonkey28]

The UFO crash also spawns UFOs, I had a UFO crash decoration in my neighborhood and it spawns UFOs.

[SimChelsey]

I agree with midnightmonkey28, I do think UFO crashsites do attract UFO's, my Pleasentview Downtown does have one, so I guess thats why I sometimes see UFO's in my Pleasentview Downtown, even though I dont have a stonehedge!!

[Ghost sdoj]

Yes, they like crash sites as well as the stonehenges.

(By the way, you do realize this thread had been four years old, don't you?)

[Astrognash]

(They also are oblivious to the fact that Stonehenge is not a shrub)

[GeneralOperationsDirector]

After seeing this thread the other day, I happened to notice "out of the corner of my eye" something that looked suspiciously like the alien spacecraft flying across my neighborhood.

Thing is, I`m not sure if it was my default Downtown, which has both a Crashed Alien Spaceship and several cooling towers, or in my main neighborhood, which has neither them nor a Stonehenge. ::shrug::

Anyway, I don`t *recall* having seen one in neighborhood view previously, and I didn`t get a good look at this one. I guess I`ll need to place all three in Funkytown when I make it. :)

...and has anyone noticed that "UFO" stands for UNIDINTIFIED Flying Object, and the instant it is identified as an Alien Spaceship, it ceases being UNidentified, and hence is no longer a UFO?

[Selly_2009]

...and has anyone noticed that "UFO" stands for UNIDINTIFIED Flying Object, and the instant it is identified as an Alien Spaceship, it ceases being UNidentified, and hence is no longer a UFO?

In that case shouldn't the initials become IFAS - for Identified Flying Alien Spaceship?
But then even though WE know it's that, for our lil simmies it's a UFO until someone gets abducted! :lol: And if he happens to be male - starts popping out these little green babies...

[GeneralOperationsDirector]

"IFO": "Identified Flying Object". :)

I suppose. ::shrug::

[Ghost sdoj]

Of course it's still -partially- unidentified, because we don't know what the aliens call it... :)
