I’m really happy they finally fixed NPCs joining conversations on dates and sims not autonomously eating food at restaurants. Although I’m still waiting for the apartment wall bug, and weird pathing issues and the sims cue randomly deleting everything to get fixed.
Apartment walls drive me crazy! It’s annoying enough in San Myshuno, I want to buy For Rent but the walls are so glitched that I don’t even want to purchase it
That's one of the bigger reasons I stopped playing. There's some good other fixes as well, assuming they actually work of course which isn't exactly certain. It still feels like too late for a lot of these, ones that should have been fixed years back, not just for when they want to sell a new pack.
Honestly I get a gamebreaking bug at restaurants where the food just never comes when I'm going to one? All the NPCs get food and my Sims do not. They order fine and then just never get food. And the CarlsSims mod doesn't really help there at all

Yeah but it’s been better than just releasing a broken pack and ignoring stuff they need to fix with the older packs they have done that a lot. So the fact they ate going back to old packs at all is a win.

The one about sims not interrupting on a date is the most important one to me. I hated send my sims on public dates cause too many people got in the way
I always send my sims to the park in Henford at night, as not too many sims come through there. It’s honestly kinda creepy though; I wouldn’t go on a first date to a deserted park in the middle of the night! 😅
@Ikwigsjoyful tiny bit of creepiness might be useful if sims could cling to someone when they get scared. But since they can't I'll probably stick to home dates. Not a ton of fun but at least it's easier to control
The big bug for me that is really annoying, is that when I am looking in my sims family tree and noticed that all the past family members that are just gone. And mind you, I've never really played with big families for a long time, hell sometimes I just play for 1 or 3 gens that's it, but in MY personal gameplay, I'm on seven generations and noticed when going in the family tree that the older generations are disappearing, And I'm upset that is happening. I've looked this bug up too, and it has been a problem for a very long time, possibly when The Sims 4 launched for what I've seen from other people..
I have an issue with a sim being glitched out when dying and I have to reset object the sim. After doing so I can’t mark a grave for them or find them in the tree at all it’s like they disappeared from existence. I’m just glad I use family echo so I already had her picture saved and ready to go
Wait, you get this too? Are you on a console or PC? I play on a PS4 and I have just randomly lost a lot of lots and households and older sims disappear. Luckily I have a bunch of backup save files but it's still irritating.
This JUST hsppened to me. I wonder if it messes up the achievements. I just hit 12 gen, getting the 10 gen unlocked, and BOOM - everyone above the latest grandparents GONE. Not even a photo or line to them.
Omg this literally happened to me recently too!! My Sim has no family anymore and doesn’t have any relationships either. I don’t have any mods or anything.
Sims not part of the date joining my convos was really frustrating me yesterday bc both were flirty and other sims kept flirting with them despite my best efforts to separate them resulting in both sims getting mad and jealous i eventually just had all dates at my house just to save me effort. I love the new fixes that they r going to do and hope they stay on track with fixing more packs down the line
The wedding guests nit sitting on the ground is good. Last wedding I attempted, a guest sat right in the middle on the aisle and the wedding party wouldn't route around them.
I wish they'd made the aisles and the chairs almost one object and make it like a table where chairs slot in evenly at given points. If they ever do weddings again in a imaginary non-hellish Sims 5 I hope they try something like that. Or Paralives if it's good
I didn't played it yet, but if you want your Sims to sit, you need to make sure that you have enough chairs. They just will stand up if there are no chairs. Idk if it works with all chairs, or just the wedding chairs, as I didn't played this pack yet. I have ot, I just didn't played it. I've played Outdoor Retreat, GTW and Im still playing Spa Day.
Bwahaha, I will believe it when I see it. They claimed they fixed the black photograph bug years ago and yet it's been coming up again any time you put photos into storage, which totally killed five hours of progress and photoshoots with one of my saves. That was last summer, and I stupidly believed them that it was fixed and dozens of photos were ruined and I couldn't get them back. I haven't updated since November because of the increasing game breaking "patches" they've been releasing. I may be stuck with the three-person-only holidays but I haven't had any new instability since then.
My photos turn black too, especially after any patch update, but I always update my game, I just don't take photos anymore. I still hope they fix it, I'm still playing.
a friendly tip for everyone, playing on speed 1 as often as possible helps with simulation lag and bugs relating to that. the game struggles when too many sims are trying to do things at once and keeping it slow gives the game more time to process everything it's trying to do. i also recommend hitting the escape key/viewing the menu for a few seconds whenever you get a lag spike; its more effective than just pausing.
It's working really fast for me, even with DX-9. 😊 I play always at normal speed, I pause when I need to, I don't like to waste In-game time. Just when my Sims go to bed or do something that takes too much time, then I double speed it, and it works just fine for me. 😊
I will never forget your My Wedding Disaster stream either. I had tears rolling down my face I was laughing so hard. The look of horror in your face when the guests ate the cake! I'm sure you're happy to see that fix
I still can't have sims move in with each other unless I go to manage world and move sims in that way. I hate when I get the pop up with a Sim asking to move in and I have to hit no because it is a never ending screen. When I hit no, then they have that negative memory of being turned down. So frustrating.
@@MidnightMuffin As nando said- it's a really good mod for relationships and childbirth that puts in a lot of realistic things like wanting or not wanting kids, more varied pregnancy symptoms and moodlets, birth control, and now stuff like open relationships and woohoo drive. There's also ways to discuss that stuff with partners. Though I'm suspecting that the latter stuff eventually might get changed due to the fact we're getting a 'canon' way to have an open relationship and maybe a throuple etc (you can already have more than one GF/BF though only one spouse so if we can opt out of jealousy it could work basically like it does in most countries where you can only legally marry one person but can have a wife and a GF etc)
@@hopefullyc Probably still no but I mean there is a lot of really nice build buy and the wedding cakes look really nice with a lot of options there. Getting married at the townhall worked fine for me though and that's cute, though it's also something I think you could do base game in Sims 3. And unfortunately it's not one of the more modded packs so even little tweaks like "I want to actually be able to get a drink from the toast bucket" isn't there. There was one interesting mod that at least assigned 'preferences' for different wedding traditions based on traits but it interfered with the ask about day conversation option. And getting everyone from one place to another is just really hard
Nice to see quite a few very longstanding bugs on the laundry list for once - eg Cottage living, Dine Out and Highschool years. However, I'd be a little concerned by the lack of for rent fixes as I feel like that really glitched building/moving across worlds and even corrupted certain lots. But then I'm not playing much nor going to be buying the new pack to see it get worse. The price of EP went up in my country and there is no way it's ever going to be value for money at that cost even if miraculously EA were to up their game suddenly with Lovestruck.
They need to fix the roof issue for for rent. Cant place a roof on any building of someone lives on the lot, makes tiny town challenge a pain. Having to move everyone out then back in then having to be each perwon to put back everything back into their houses
Would be cool if they fix it and make the roofing system much better, as roofs that clip through walls are not real. The roofs should be more flexible and customizable. There should be more options to design the roofs the way you want them to look like.
I ran into this problem a ton, the only thing I've found that works for me is going into lot editing mode from the map, and I just do my roofs and stairs through there to avoid the moving hassle
Idk if anyone else has this glitch but it makes me so mad. I’ll have a sim that had so much happen to them and as a result a lot of milestones (breakup, cheated on, died then came back to life, etc…) but when I leave the game and come back, the only milestones that save are marriage, having kids, and job milestones. It basically makes all that drama pointless if the sim doesn’t even remember it 🤷🏼♀️
@@persephone385 Oh absolutely I'm thankful and it's rebuilding my trust, but that doesn't mean we should assume everything will work first time from now on. But it's a good start.
I wish they would post maybe the top errors under consideration with some sort of live list with a rating of how complicated they think it will be to fix (like clipping and categorization fixes are probably easier than things like lag which are probably a combination of many factors) and maybe some sort of count of how many people have identified it as an issue. I totally understand how hard it is to have a backlog and to communicate that you can't do everything at once but I feel like they could be more open about it sometimes. Still I'm glad that we are getting an update. I'm looking forward to the trailer and hope it will be promising, this is still up there with packs I might get right away just bc romance and dating are such common things in the Sims gameplay and it's something that could factor into many households (since teens can build the Romance skill I want to see what kinds of stuff you can do with that- I like the idea that if you date in high school you'll be more experienced than someone who waits until after college and if you date a lot you might be better at knowing how to woo people and play the dating game).
The werewolf sweater fix is actually my favourite part, cause that sweater in it's light pink and yellow swatch is literally my favourite top in the whole game, and that arm glitch has been bugging me ever since the pack came out.
Dream home decorator doesn’t allow jobs to be finished properly, I would love for that to be fixed as it’s the only feature on the game that allows building as part of official gameplay!!
Wow that laundry list looks good. A range of different levels of fixes. Some small things and some big things! It’s great to see. I have stopped playing because of all the bugs I was seeing, there may actually be hope for me to pick it up again!
Hey, don't forget in the speculation forum a dev asked about polyamory a little over a year ago, IIRC you made a video about it and the new forums are supposed to be up and running around the 15th of this month. Happy swimming 🥰
Not sure if this is a bug but I hate when my sim goes jogging and when they are finish change into their normal clothes. Birthdays make me sick! We need a come celebrate interaction where all sims on the active lot will come and sing and cheer for the birthday sim! Like in the sims 3. The current interaction all calls sims that is close to the cake at the time. So many sims miss out 😢
Glad to see the Make a Move bug is being fixed with married sims in CAS you made. I can only assume that will fix fiancees in cas as well. This bug happens on consoles and pc's and with or without mods. It's been around since the base game.
Now if only they could fix the problem in dine out where sims keep randomly switching seats while they're supposed to be eating and having a conversation during a date/event.
Now this IS good news! I hope we get to see some of the more important/annoying bugs fixed soon too (gardening for example). I'm very excited to see what comes out of this new team next. It may even put me back on to spending money on the game again... I'll have to wait and see though.
Yes the multiple sims joining private conversations. Yes please fix that. Drove me crazy to the point where I don't even send my Sims on dates anymore.
I need them to fix how many damn white cakes they make 😭 it makes my game unplayable cus every sim in my 6 ppl household makes them over and over again 💀
I wonder if they will ever restore the "News" section of the gallery? It was supposed to be temporary, while they were fixing it last year but it seems to have become permanent. Am I the only one who misses it?
My current really bad bug problem is that most of my sims will not level up in their careers. They will be almost to the max level and I will continue to do the daily tasks and yet they still won’t advance.
Not this time, unfortunately. That is probably my most annoying bug at the moment, since I play a lot of farmers/gardeners. So frustrating to be working from home as a gardener, get the work order to “harvest a plant,” and then go outside to find that all of your plants that were filled with harvestables at 6am reverted to dirt piles at 7 and now you’re stuck looking for plants in the wild or getting an incomplete for your work day.
My tenants are still not paying rent :( Not Wednesday. They do break my 2 rules so I collect around 600$ from them but it's not fun that I'm still affected by this bug. I thoght it was fixed
@@disguisedchaos ok thx. to me it seems like i would choose to go skinny dipping with someone but if others were around it would be too risqué or whatever.
Has anyone else been having a bug where if your trying to talk to certain sims they'll just cancel all your interactions listed and stand there doing nothing for a minute and then leave?? its been very annoying for trying to speedrun a date lol
That’s kind of like me having to actually make my sims sit down at the computer before you give them the action, cause otherwise they’ll just cancel it.
All that would take is some sort of “focus attention to wedding arch during ceremony” type code that overrides those autonomous desires during the exchange vows interaction. I’m clearly not a coder, but i can’t see why that should be so hard.
I know it'll be hell on modders, but I think sims devs should line up major fix patches twice a year with smaller fix patches coming every three months. THAT way major bugs don't continue to get worse and snowball into bigger issues, and the smaller ones can get fixed BEFORE they snowball too. But, its EA, and EA doesn't care THAT MUCH about the sims either soo 🤷🏼
Ooh, I like fixes! I have a lot of the ones they listed. However, I will not feel warmly towards EA until my game is playable again, and that will take way more than one patch
I'm super happy that they're fixing the NPCs joining your conversation while on a date! That has been an issue since the base game came out! There used to be a mod to get rid of them, but it's been gone for a few years. I normally use MCC "Make Sim Leave." I also wish they'd fix sleeping after woohoo in bed.
Will they ever fix the music compositions resetting to zero if the Sim leaves the lot? I was trying to finish the teenagers challenge with the boy being in music. He needed to write 4 songs. Well, with school, it resetted all the time. Then I tried to have him write during the weekend, sent the dad to the gym. Resetted the progress. Ended up changing my teen’s aspiration but he only has 3 days before aging up and an entire aspiration tree to go through. Argh.
This week I found out that there are some oversized crop fertilizers that can't be used because there is no code written for them. I also can't finish any Hendford quests that include giving food to townies and can't submit pies to the contests. Because apparently I have a bug where I can't give cooked food. How fun.
I'm happy that they are doing the fixes for the game and DLC's! Especially for Cottage Living and Dineout. I hope they fix the bug where you move lots with your cows. I moved to a bigger lot and I got the message that I don't own my cow anymore. I couldn't clean it or milk it...
This is a good list of fixes and I’m really glad they’ve upped their game on bug fixes. I’m also pleased to see them acknowledge there are bugs that need more looking at because most of my bugs are not the current laundry list. Fingers crossed for apartment walls!
I'm surprised they're fixing some Dine out bugs, but not dates not working on restaurants at all, since the dating pack is coming out 🤔 Right now if you ask someone out on a date, you can't select a restaurant, and if you get invited onto a date at a restaurant, your date and the date event will disappear.
Lovestruck will have more different meeting locations and goals, fantayzia been talking about that. Better we wait for the Gameplay Trailer to come and watch how it will actually be 🙂
When Im doing the Not So Berry challenge and Rose's first wedding there is no call of wedding button which wasnt a problem before I owned Wedding Stories so I had to cheat her status and relationship with the guy to pretend I could mark off that bit of criteria, keeping the MCCC mod permanently on hand just in case now, and her second wedding the couple couldn't cut the cake because some hungry strangers walked into the venue and saw the cake.
I wish they would fix more the gamepaly affecting things, like bicycling (for example in Foxbury when they get the bike out for travelling to stairs near by and everywhere cycling inside house). Whole cycling thing is bugged! Also sim made objects disappearing, currently my robotics station loses all cleaning robots they made and the whole table is unusable after that - can't even delete or store the station anymore. Debugging object won't help. Cats get in the counters and my sims make food on top of them, once they use knives it makes this bug awful 😅
I tried to do the mountain climbing expedition and the event is completely bugged, kicked me all the way out of my house and back to the map and wouldn't load back into my sim without a hard restart of the game
Well they fixed one thing I am pretty sure everyone was experiencing was the default name on the rental lots but I am sooo hoping for the fix on the cooking interactions and cooking lag & FINALLY SOMETHING FOR THE DINEOUT AND WEDDING STORIES PACKS WOHOOOO!? 😍
I can't wait for my Sims to eat the meal they ordered from an expansion pack I purchased back in 2016. Wow, thank you Sims team! Maybe in another 10 years we'll get to play an actual, functioning wedding too. Now that'd be something.
Omg I'm so glad they fixed the call off wedding bug though I'll admit it's one of those bugs that I didn't realise it was a bug, but just thought it was a removed feature
I would love if they start updating the packs to include more swatches, items from CAS and Build mode. It's not like you didnt pay for the pack, so having some updates and fixes (specially the swatches) would be handy and can improve the games content.
The Hot Springs didn't get fixed that came with Snowey Escape. Sims still can't do romantic interactions in them cause of a routing issue. The cue just cancels out.
I'm glad they are fixing the game. I just think that there's something behind them all of sudden fixing it. Maybe a possible lawsuit cause of how people spend their money only just to have a non working game?!
I must say I find this very postive and even though some of these fixed ought to have happened YEARS AGO - better late than never, and I am now actually and probably going to buy For Rent - which I was scared to do since so many complained about bugs.... I actually haven't ever felt this positive about an update - or the game in general - before... 😂
I'm sooooooo tired of updating all my mods lol It's the most frustrating part of these updates and DLCs. I have so many. It doesn't take super long, but it takes TOO long still lol
Im so happy for the Top notch toddler traits and the sneak out to party bugs being fixed... those two were freezing my progression in game for so long...
I'm very positively surprised by the latest bug fixes and packs. Personally, I was very fascinated and in love with Lovestruck because of the heart shaped bed, the dating app, the ability, the career, the new animations, the new interactions, the new aspiration and features, as well as outfits, furniture, traits, the world, the axolotl and the curved pools. 😍 I love the new team that fixes the game bugs and I was really positively surprised today, that they will fix over 60 game bugs. Especially Horse Ranch, I love 🐎 horses, and Highschool Years, Dine Out and My Wedding Stories are also getting really important bug fixes. I'm optimistic and extremely excited about the new gameplay trailer. I am also very positive about the bug fixes that will be released in the future. 😊❤
If this expansion pack brings improvement and actually content to the game I will have hope. As of right now I don’t play the sims anymore because well I purchased for rent and my game has been broken since. However I love the sims so if they continue to work and improve the game I may pick it back up .
I didnt notice it but hope I can start using rent again couldn't travel to worlds the had the stuff from the pack in it and the travel world map wouldnt show up just white had to delete my game even sims in my library got corrupt been told the object from rent does it weird making apartments seem fine but a toy chair what ever from the pack trashes it was fine until 2 weeks ago
I'm betting the livestream is next Friday. They Sims Team loves to do Livestreams on Friday then after that I'm hoping the flood gates open and the EA Gamechangers answer what doesn't get answered on the LS and show us some videos. It depends on when the embargo lifts which might be Next Saturday.
The only real issue I'm having is whenever my sims take photos with (camera, phone or photobooth) I'm unable to save and get error code 0. It will literally delete a whole save file. So my sims can not take photos and leave my family homes looking bare. I can't even play with dream home decorator career.
So... I've been away from the game for about a year. Yes... I know... as a Sims player/builder it's probably considered a sin to stay away for so long but the past year has been pretty hectic. After spending a day and a half finding the two mods causing Last Exceptions, I started playing. I actually thought that while I was away, they had fixed Dine Out. My Sim and his sweetheart went out on a date to a restaurant. I fully expected the usual chaos... but nope. They were seated promptly, neither one of them got up from the table to wander around, no one butted in to ruin their conversation, their food was brought to their table with no delays, they both ate their meals, drank their beverages and had a wonderful time animatedly talking to each their through the entire meal. I literally ordered their meal and didn't have to do anything else after that except sit back and watch. I was pleasantly shocked. And no... I don't have Carl's mod. Now... what I DID notice about the game was the roofs when I was building a park for my sims. Tired of taking my sims to parks that had hardly anything for them to do in good weather and nothing for them to do in the rain, I set to giving them a park they could have great fun in no matter the weather. When did roofs start clipping through walls? I was putting a roof over a porch and to my surprise, it was clipping through the walls on the rooms on the upper floor. I have a lot of builds in my gallery that I have shared, and now I'm worried that a lot of them are ruined or unplayable. As I said before I use mods, but for the life of me I can't think of a single one that would mess up building. So, I'm just curious as to when that particular glitch started to show up or if this is just happening to me.
I’m really happy they finally fixed NPCs joining conversations on dates and sims not autonomously eating food at restaurants. Although I’m still waiting for the apartment wall bug, and weird pathing issues and the sims cue randomly deleting everything to get fixed.
Apartment walls drive me crazy! It’s annoying enough in San Myshuno, I want to buy For Rent but the walls are so glitched that I don’t even want to purchase it
That's one of the bigger reasons I stopped playing. There's some good other fixes as well, assuming they actually work of course which isn't exactly certain. It still feels like too late for a lot of these, ones that should have been fixed years back, not just for when they want to sell a new pack.

a friendly tip for everyone, playing on speed 1 as often as possible helps with simulation lag and bugs relating to that. the game struggles when too many sims are trying to do things at once and keeping it slow gives the game more time to process everything it's trying to do. i also recommend hitting the escape key/viewing the menu for a few seconds whenever you get a lag spike; its more effective than just pausing.
It's working really fast for me, even with DX-9. 😊 I play always at normal speed, I pause when I need to, I don't like to waste In-game time.
Just when my Sims go to bed or do something that takes too much time, then I double speed it, and it works just fine for me. 😊
@@LuciaSims745how do you get dx-9 on steam
I will never forget your My Wedding Disaster stream either. I had tears rolling down my face I was laughing so hard. The look of horror in your face when the guests ate the cake! I'm sure you're happy to see that fix
I still can't have sims move in with each other unless I go to manage world and move sims in that way. I hate when I get the pop up with a Sim asking to move in and I have to hit no because it is a never ending screen. When I hit no, then they have that negative memory of being turned down. So frustrating.
Mods are going to be broke for a hot minute especially WW and RPO but glad to see some good fixes for Wedding Stories and Dine Out tho ✨🙌🏻
What’s RPO?
@@MidnightMuffin "Relationship and Pregnancy Overhaul" by the modder Lumpinou
@@MidnightMuffin As nando said- it's a really good mod for relationships and childbirth that puts in a lot of realistic things like wanting or not wanting kids, more varied pregnancy symptoms and moodlets, birth control, and now stuff like open relationships and woohoo drive. There's also ways to discuss that stuff with partners. Though I'm suspecting that the latter stuff eventually might get changed due to the fact we're getting a 'canon' way to have an open relationship and maybe a throuple etc (you can already have more than one GF/BF though only one spouse so if we can opt out of jealousy it could work basically like it does in most countries where you can only legally marry one person but can have a wife and a GF etc)
Will wedding story be worth buying after those fixes?
@@hopefullyc Probably still no but I mean there is a lot of really nice build buy and the wedding cakes look really nice with a lot of options there. Getting married at the townhall worked fine for me though and that's cute, though it's also something I think you could do base game in Sims 3.
And unfortunately it's not one of the more modded packs so even little tweaks like "I want to actually be able to get a drink from the toast bucket" isn't there. There was one interesting mod that at least assigned 'preferences' for different wedding traditions based on traits but it interfered with the ask about day conversation option. And getting everyone from one place to another is just really hard
I can't even open my app anymore. It keeps saying background services crashed. Can't wait for paralives
I just had to try to restart the EA app several times before it finally worked
I haven’t had many problems at all with the app surprisingly
It's probably conflicting with other programs.
Scan your files for broken files!
When the app isn’t loading my game properly using task manager (Ctrl, alt, delete) and closing everything EA related always works
Hopefully the fixes dont crash EA
i think we should just expect it at this point
My EA App is working fine.
Nice to see quite a few very longstanding bugs on the laundry list for once - eg Cottage living, Dine Out and Highschool years. However, I'd be a little concerned by the lack of for rent fixes as I feel like that really glitched building/moving across worlds and even corrupted certain lots. But then I'm not playing much nor going to be buying the new pack to see it get worse. The price of EP went up in my country and there is no way it's ever going to be value for money at that cost even if miraculously EA were to up their game suddenly with Lovestruck.
They need to fix the roof issue for for rent. Cant place a roof on any building of someone lives on the lot, makes tiny town challenge a pain. Having to move everyone out then back in then having to be each perwon to put back everything back into their houses
Would be cool if they fix it and make the roofing system much better, as roofs that clip through walls are not real.
The roofs should be more flexible and customizable. There should be more options to design the roofs the way you want them to look like.
I ran into this problem a ton, the only thing I've found that works for me is going into lot editing mode from the map, and I just do my roofs and stairs through there to avoid the moving hassle
Idk if anyone else has this glitch but it makes me so mad. I’ll have a sim that had so much happen to them and as a result a lot of milestones (breakup, cheated on, died then came back to life, etc…) but when I leave the game and come back, the only milestones that save are marriage, having kids, and job milestones. It basically makes all that drama pointless if the sim doesn’t even remember it 🤷🏼♀️
Lets remember that many of these bugs should have been fixed YEARS ago, but I think its still a sign of goodwill that they're finally being adressed.
They can't turn back time
take what you can get man
I call it competence
@@persephone385 Oh absolutely I'm thankful and it's rebuilding my trust, but that doesn't mean we should assume everything will work first time from now on. But it's a good start.
I wish they would post maybe the top errors under consideration with some sort of live list with a rating of how complicated they think it will be to fix (like clipping and categorization fixes are probably easier than things like lag which are probably a combination of many factors) and maybe some sort of count of how many people have identified it as an issue. I totally understand how hard it is to have a backlog and to communicate that you can't do everything at once but I feel like they could be more open about it sometimes.
Still I'm glad that we are getting an update. I'm looking forward to the trailer and hope it will be promising, this is still up there with packs I might get right away just bc romance and dating are such common things in the Sims gameplay and it's something that could factor into many households (since teens can build the Romance skill I want to see what kinds of stuff you can do with that- I like the idea that if you date in high school you'll be more experienced than someone who waits until after college and if you date a lot you might be better at knowing how to woo people and play the dating game).
they need to stabilize that EA app, cant update the game when the app to launch it don’t work 😭
try to reinstall
The werewolf sweater fix is actually my favourite part, cause that sweater in it's light pink and yellow swatch is literally my favourite top in the whole game, and that arm glitch has been bugging me ever since the pack came out.
OMGG same !! I love the prints on all the swatches, I thinks gives a lot of personality to my sims
Dream home decorator doesn’t allow jobs to be finished properly, I would love for that to be fixed as it’s the only feature on the game that allows building as part of official gameplay!!
+1 this
Wow that laundry list looks good. A range of different levels of fixes. Some small things and some big things! It’s great to see. I have stopped playing because of all the bugs I was seeing, there may actually be hope for me to pick it up again!
i just wish other sims would stop making de stress potions at the grills.
I think that happens because of a neighbourhood action plan
Hey, don't forget in the speculation forum a dev asked about polyamory a little over a year ago, IIRC you made a video about it and the new forums are supposed to be up and running around the 15th of this month. Happy swimming 🥰
Not sure if this is a bug but I hate when my sim goes jogging and when they are finish change into their normal clothes. Birthdays make me sick! We need a come celebrate interaction where all sims on the active lot will come and sing and cheer for the birthday sim! Like in the sims 3. The current interaction all calls sims that is close to the cake at the time. So many sims miss out 😢
Glad to see the Make a Move bug is being fixed with married sims in CAS you made. I can only assume that will fix fiancees in cas as well. This bug happens on consoles and pc's and with or without mods. It's been around since the base game.
Haven't given them a dime since Tiny Living 😈
Now if only they could fix the problem in dine out where sims keep randomly switching seats while they're supposed to be eating and having a conversation during a date/event.
Now this IS good news! I hope we get to see some of the more important/annoying bugs fixed soon too (gardening for example). I'm very excited to see what comes out of this new team next. It may even put me back on to spending money on the game again... I'll have to wait and see though.
Yes the multiple sims joining private conversations. Yes please fix that. Drove me crazy to the point where I don't even send my Sims on dates anymore.
I need them to fix how many damn white cakes they make 😭 it makes my game unplayable cus every sim in my 6 ppl household makes them over and over again 💀
For realll
i'm glad they're finally fixing the game. hope they continue doing so.
13:58 i love this part, absolutely hilarious
I wonder if they will ever restore the "News" section of the gallery? It was supposed to be temporary, while they were fixing it last year but it seems to have become permanent. Am I the only one who misses it?
My current really bad bug problem is that most of my sims will not level up in their careers. They will be almost to the max level and I will continue to do the daily tasks and yet they still won’t advance.
I want the garden bug fixed. When I leave my lot the next time I take care of my sheltered garden it all gose back to dirt piles
Did the fixes mention the problem with plants reverting to seedlings?
Not this time, unfortunately. That is probably my most annoying bug at the moment, since I play a lot of farmers/gardeners. So frustrating to be working from home as a gardener, get the work order to “harvest a plant,” and then go outside to find that all of your plants that were filled with harvestables at 6am reverted to dirt piles at 7 and now you’re stuck looking for plants in the wild or getting an incomplete for your work day.
They better fix this game. I was ready to bail to Life by You. Now I can't.
I'm waiting for paralives to come out.
@@sherryluu518 Paralives is 2025 or later..so how knows. InZoi is supposed to be later this year though.
@@warzshadow9701 i don't have high hopes for inzoi tho
Oh yesssss, the Alt+tab bug will finally be fixed. 🎉😂
My tenants are still not paying rent :( Not Wednesday. They do break my 2 rules so I collect around 600$ from them but it's not fun that I'm still affected by this bug. I thoght it was fixed
8:39 that sounds backwards. skinny dipping shouldn’t be an issue when “no other sims are nearby”
It's about skinny dipping WITH someone
And that only works if other Sims are nearby :)
The issue is it says "skinny dipping with..." when there's no other sims around
It's the "skinny dip with..." option. If there are no other sims around, you shouldn't have the option to skinny dip with another sim.
@@disguisedchaos ok thx. to me it seems like i would choose to go skinny dipping with someone but if others were around it would be too risqué or whatever.
@@nostalgiaprincess ah, I can see your point :)
Major patch means new bugs, be afraid.😱
If so, they need to make a Hotfix Patch that fixes everything. I'll still update my game though.
Has anyone else been having a bug where if your trying to talk to certain sims they'll just cancel all your interactions listed and stand there doing nothing for a minute and then leave?? its been very annoying for trying to speedrun a date lol
That’s kind of like me having to actually make my sims sit down at the computer before you give them the action, cause otherwise they’ll just cancel it.
I still have white cake being made issues. I also still have so many ranch hand issues which were supposedly fixed.
Funny that certain things only get fixed when they eventually interfere with a new pack coming out...🤑
I'd like sims at my wedding to not do push ups in the aisle and then start showing other sims what's on their phone.
All that would take is some sort of “focus attention to wedding arch during ceremony” type code that overrides those autonomous desires during the exchange vows interaction. I’m clearly not a coder, but i can’t see why that should be so hard.
I know it'll be hell on modders, but I think sims devs should line up major fix patches twice a year with smaller fix patches coming every three months. THAT way major bugs don't continue to get worse and snowball into bigger issues, and the smaller ones can get fixed BEFORE they snowball too. But, its EA, and EA doesn't care THAT MUCH about the sims either soo 🤷🏼
Ooh, I like fixes! I have a lot of the ones they listed. However, I will not feel warmly towards EA until my game is playable again, and that will take way more than one patch
I'm super happy that they're fixing the NPCs joining your conversation while on a date! That has been an issue since the base game came out! There used to be a mod to get rid of them, but it's been gone for a few years. I normally use MCC "Make Sim Leave."
I also wish they'd fix sleeping after woohoo in bed.
I just want to be able to have my sims attend their high school graduation again
I wish they would exclude occults from restaurant staff. I hate having vampires as waiters or hosts.
Will they ever fix the music compositions resetting to zero if the Sim leaves the lot? I was trying to finish the teenagers challenge with the boy being in music. He needed to write 4 songs. Well, with school, it resetted all the time. Then I tried to have him write during the weekend, sent the dad to the gym. Resetted the progress. Ended up changing my teen’s aspiration but he only has 3 days before aging up and an entire aspiration tree to go through. Argh.
4:05 I have never heard someone say standing on business in my life what lol
the new BG fixer team certainly has their work cut out for them 😅🙈
This week I found out that there are some oversized crop fertilizers that can't be used because there is no code written for them. I also can't finish any Hendford quests that include giving food to townies and can't submit pies to the contests. Because apparently I have a bug where I can't give cooked food. How fun.
I am so excited for this expansion pack I think this is going to be game changing like growing together and seasons
I'm happy that they are doing the fixes for the game and DLC's! Especially for Cottage Living and Dineout.
I hope they fix the bug where you move lots with your cows. I moved to a bigger lot and I got the message that I don't own my cow anymore. I couldn't clean it or milk it...
I've experienced many of the glitches being fixed in this list. I hope they work and don't get undone by the next parch.
So far none of the fixes are issues i experienced so while im happy they are fixing things, i wish they would make MWS actually function
This is a good list of fixes and I’m really glad they’ve upped their game on bug fixes. I’m also pleased to see them acknowledge there are bugs that need more looking at because most of my bugs are not the current laundry list. Fingers crossed for apartment walls!
As a console player, thank you! For rent is really almost IMPOSSIBLE to play
I'm surprised they're fixing some Dine out bugs, but not dates not working on restaurants at all, since the dating pack is coming out 🤔
Right now if you ask someone out on a date, you can't select a restaurant, and if you get invited onto a date at a restaurant, your date and the date event will disappear.
Interesting. I take my sims out to dates in restaurants all the time. You should mention it on the answersHQ
Lovestruck will have more different meeting locations and goals, fantayzia been talking about that.
Better we wait for the Gameplay Trailer to come and watch how it will actually be 🙂
Has this been properly reported? I don’t have this bug so idk how widespread that is. My sims can select any restaurant for dates.
When Im doing the Not So Berry challenge and Rose's first wedding there is no call of wedding button which wasnt a problem before I owned Wedding Stories so I had to cheat her status and relationship with the guy to pretend I could mark off that bit of criteria, keeping the MCCC mod permanently on hand just in case now, and her second wedding the couple couldn't cut the cake because some hungry strangers walked into the venue and saw the cake.
As of today, my San Myshuno festivals aren't showing up in my BRAND NEW save because I tried to put a sales table on the Planet Karaoke lot smh
yes, I remember that playthrough too, it made Bridesmaids look sane. I felt so bad for you, but I felt worse for the sim bride.
I am so happy about the for rent fix on console
I wish they would fix more the gamepaly affecting things, like bicycling (for example in Foxbury when they get the bike out for travelling to stairs near by and everywhere cycling inside house). Whole cycling thing is bugged! Also sim made objects disappearing, currently my robotics station loses all cleaning robots they made and the whole table is unusable after that - can't even delete or store the station anymore. Debugging object won't help. Cats get in the counters and my sims make food on top of them, once they use knives it makes this bug awful 😅
I tried to do the mountain climbing expedition and the event is completely bugged, kicked me all the way out of my house and back to the map and wouldn't load back into my sim without a hard restart of the game
Well they fixed one thing I am pretty sure everyone was experiencing was the default name on the rental lots but I am sooo hoping for the fix on the cooking interactions and cooking lag & FINALLY SOMETHING FOR THE DINEOUT AND WEDDING STORIES PACKS WOHOOOO!? 😍
the live stream is on this week! this Thursday
Of course, the gameplay trailer and release are on both Thursdays that I'm gonna be away for work.
I can't wait for my Sims to eat the meal they ordered from an expansion pack I purchased back in 2016. Wow, thank you Sims team! Maybe in another 10 years we'll get to play an actual, functioning wedding too. Now that'd be something.
Omg I'm so glad they fixed the call off wedding bug though I'll admit it's one of those bugs that I didn't realise it was a bug, but just thought it was a removed feature
I’m not ready for my mods to break
there ae actually some fixes listed that I am soooo happy about!!! Ive lost so many sims because they went swimming in the friggin winter
I wish they included zodiac signs… especially for a dating expansion pack!! 😢
I would love if they start updating the packs to include more swatches, items from CAS and Build mode. It's not like you didnt pay for the pack, so having some updates and fixes (specially the swatches) would be handy and can improve the games content.
Laundry list looking great, I am again hopeful they'll eventually fix the hide/show walls and doors issues in apartments and rental lots!
The Hot Springs didn't get fixed that came with Snowey Escape. Sims still can't do romantic interactions in them cause of a routing issue. The cue just cancels out.
I'm surprised they didn't fix these issues, as well as other potential issues related to woohoo, romantic and to the Romantic Garden Pack.
@@LuciaSims745 There is another big bug fix patch coming out in 2 months so maybe those issues will be resolved.
I'm glad they are fixing the game. I just think that there's something behind them all of sudden fixing it. Maybe a possible lawsuit cause of how people spend their money only just to have a non working game?!
I must say I find this very postive and even though some of these fixed ought to have happened YEARS AGO - better late than never, and I am now actually and probably going to buy For Rent - which I was scared to do since so many complained about bugs.... I actually haven't ever felt this positive about an update - or the game in general - before... 😂
The Finchwick fair fix makes me so happy!
I'm sooooooo tired of updating all my mods lol It's the most frustrating part of these updates and DLCs. I have so many. It doesn't take super long, but it takes TOO long still lol
Im so happy for the Top notch toddler traits and the sneak out to party bugs being fixed... those two were freezing my progression in game for so long...
I'm very positively surprised by the latest bug fixes and packs.
Personally, I was very fascinated and in love with Lovestruck because of the heart shaped bed, the dating app, the ability, the career, the new animations, the new interactions, the new aspiration and features, as well as outfits, furniture, traits, the world, the axolotl and the curved pools. 😍
I love the new team that fixes the game bugs and I was really positively surprised today, that they will fix over 60 game bugs. Especially Horse Ranch, I love 🐎 horses, and Highschool Years, Dine Out and My Wedding Stories are also getting really important bug fixes.
I'm optimistic and extremely excited about the new gameplay trailer.
I am also very positive about the bug fixes that will be released in the future. 😊❤
Yay! Happy I can finally use those nose rings! 🎉
I feel like I don't play the game enough to notice all these bugs. And it's crazy how much there is.
if these bug fixes are actually fixed, i may actually pick up done out and my wedding stories lol
If this expansion pack brings improvement and actually content to the game I will have hope. As of right now I don’t play the sims anymore because well I purchased for rent and my game has been broken since. However I love the sims so if they continue to work and improve the game I may pick it back up .
I didnt notice it but hope I can start using rent again couldn't travel to worlds the had the stuff from the pack in it and the travel world map wouldnt show up just white had to delete my game even sims in my library got corrupt been told the object from rent does it weird making apartments seem fine but a toy chair what ever from the pack trashes it was fine until 2 weeks ago
I'm betting the livestream is next Friday. They Sims Team loves to do Livestreams on Friday then after that I'm hoping the flood gates open and the EA Gamechangers answer what doesn't get answered on the LS and show us some videos. It depends on when the embargo lifts which might be Next Saturday.
I would like to buy this pack but I can't even open my EA app right now and I have not been able to for 2 days
Rip my mods
The only real issue I'm having is whenever my sims take photos with (camera, phone or photobooth) I'm unable to save and get error code 0. It will literally delete a whole save file. So my sims can not take photos and leave my family homes looking bare. I can't even play with dream home decorator career.
Remember the videos where someone reads The Sims 3's patch notes and can't stop laughing? Someone should do that with The Sims 4.
So... I've been away from the game for about a year. Yes... I know... as a Sims player/builder it's probably considered a sin to stay away for so long but the past year has been pretty hectic. After spending a day and a half finding the two mods causing Last Exceptions, I started playing.
I actually thought that while I was away, they had fixed Dine Out. My Sim and his sweetheart went out on a date to a restaurant. I fully expected the usual chaos... but nope. They were seated promptly, neither one of them got up from the table to wander around, no one butted in to ruin their conversation, their food was brought to their table with no delays, they both ate their meals, drank their beverages and had a wonderful time animatedly talking to each their through the entire meal. I literally ordered their meal and didn't have to do anything else after that except sit back and watch. I was pleasantly shocked. And no... I don't have Carl's mod.
Now... what I DID notice about the game was the roofs when I was building a park for my sims. Tired of taking my sims to parks that had hardly anything for them to do in good weather and nothing for them to do in the rain, I set to giving them a park they could have great fun in no matter the weather.
When did roofs start clipping through walls? I was putting a roof over a porch and to my surprise, it was clipping through the walls on the rooms on the upper floor. I have a lot of builds in my gallery that I have shared, and now I'm worried that a lot of them are ruined or unplayable. As I said before I use mods, but for the life of me I can't think of a single one that would mess up building. So, I'm just curious as to when that particular glitch started to show up or if this is just happening to me.
