It's 2019 and this is still happening.
As I'm writing this, my whole family is standing outside a neighbour's house. I can see fire in the neighbour's backyard (grill). The neighbour has run outside and she's freaking out, my whole family is freaking out, my toddler is starving and tired, my two teenagers and mother tried to knock on the door, but it did not work for either of them and they cannot perform the knock on the door action a second time, because - I quote - "there's fire on the lot" Oo. I cannot travel to my house (which is literally opposite), I cannot send my toddler to daycare, I cannot save the game and I cannot extinguish the fire. I get that these situations don't happen often, but why on Earth would anyone at EA think that this would be a good game mechanic?
Same thing happening to me as I write this. Traveled to a neighbours lot, I was whipping up some lunch, and the house owner didn't like me doing it 🤷♀️......my lunch caught fire just at the same time as she kicked me out of the house. Now no-one is extinguishing the fire. I cannot go back in to do it myself since I was kicked out. Cannot leave the lot, interact with anyone/ do anything except stand and wait..... this is a massive 2 storey house that is taking forever to burn out 😩😩
