Honestly it’s not daily but I completely agree with you. I believe you should be able to buy a pack and enjoy the game until the new pack comes out. Too me even monthly updates are unacceptable. Now you patch the patch after the patch that broke the previous patch. I have mods. First because they actually fix many glaring issues that EA is ignoring, second because they actually add real game play and are more inclusive to options allowing players to choose how they want to play a simulation game. So no I refuse to play without mods. Mostly because the game without them is bad. It’s often lacking in animation, features, gameplay, options, creativity and most of all fun. Every time EA updates I have to check all of my mods (most of my mods provide more gameplay and actually fix problems than the expensive expansion and game packs). Once I update they patch again and I have to deal with the consequences when I finally got my game working just to see that the sloppy patch broke more then it fixed and not only mods. Recently patches have destroyed my carefully crafted save files. This game is not fun. It’s a disappointing mess that sucks out all joy. It is depressing because this is a game I played since I was a child. About 30 years of my life I been a loyal customer. I look at the post here and responses to your point and the fact people defend the butchery just shows that it’s not going to get better. EA is treating paying customers as play testers instead of hiring QC employees. It is clear they do not care to really invest in fixing, they just want it to work well enough to sell the next add-on and people excuse and eat it. I’m with you. It might not be daily but it sure feels like it when it takes you two weeks after the patch to create a brand new save after the old was broken so EA can patch again (because someone finally found one error and break 5 more in the process) and once again break the game and have you repair, reset, reload, factory rest just so they patch again and introduce bugs. This is what this game has been this year. The need to fix the game to minimally working levels has made many players frustrated and depressed. I loved this game. Too bad the current owner doesn’t know why I did.
