Several of the active jobs have been designed to allow your Sim to still progress while you’re busy with a different Sim elsewhere. For example, a Private Investigator can do low level police work or stakeouts while he isn’t working on an active case. The Firefighter is not always fighting fires so there are times where you can let him hang out and socialize at the Fire Station or work out when you aren’t controlling him. Both the Stylist and Architectural Design jobs will take you into a mode that will pause the game, but if you don’t want to do that you can still have your Sim research their field on the drafting table. Every career has responsibilities and its own active jobs. Each active job will require your full attention, but there are still options that allow your Sim to progress and level up while not controlling them. The most efficient progression will be with you controlling them but the balance is up to you. Similar to how World Adventures worked, it will be a challenge to control more than one Sim with multiple active jobs but we’ve offered many other avenues to help make it easier, and it can be done.
While he was loading his PowerPoint slides, I was frantically reading folder names to try and see anything interesting. Well, there was. A folder entitled "Sims 3 DS" was nestled in between a few nondescript folders (SimpleSocializing and Tester).

Is this/Does it require a Core Mod?
Absolutely Not! I do my best to stay away from them so that everyone is able to download and enjoy it!Help! I can’t get it into my Inventory or something else doesn’t work!
This mod has been tested by at least 5 different people with all different versions and expansions with the game. This mod should not conflict with anything so it most likely is a problem in your framework. If you do all of the following and then delete your caches and restart the game and it still doesn’t work then you are aloud to post.
This person has recorded The Sims 3 Theme Song on an Electric guitar, must say its very good!

It is currently unknown when they will be back online - the following message was posted on Twitter a little while ago:
Forums are still down for maintenance. We have many individuals currently working on it. Thank you for your patience.In addition the following message was received 4 days ago from the web team:
So it appears as though this is quite a serious problem, and may last quite a while.Hi everyone,As you may have noticed, we are experiencing issues with accessing the forums. We are working on a fix to get them back up as soon as possible.Thank you for your patience.
However, in the mean time - if your having forum withdrawals, why not try SimsForum.net or UOEM!
They also mentioned, that like The Sims 3 World Adventures, Ambitions will be making its way to mobile later this year - although considered a rumor now, its 99% likely!
Of course, you don't have to do good. There are positions such as weapons inventor or crazy pharm scientist using human subjects. Either way, EA has promised "some of the most exciting and varied jobs" in Ambitions, and each job brings additional hours of play.Additionally, the architect occupation will let players change their town to suit their tastes, altering the Build and Buy modes. And regardless of your career choice, you can always choose to do good or evil, among other added freedoms.
Scott Evans, General Manager of The Sims Studio, is happy to reiterate the awesomness:“The variety of careers to choose from is unmatched and we’ve never given players the opportunity to follow their Sims to work and affect their actions on the job. The Sims 3 Ambitions changes that. Players’ actions at work now directly affect their lives, community and neighbors and become an extremely important part of how the game is played.”
The music is very hard to hear, so listen closely!!
So if you haven't yet placed your order, be sure to do so!!
