New playground equipment requirements (6) are too high

Hmm, I feel 3 would have been better.

Voicing my frustration that the amount of the Playground Equipment Requirement has been changed from 3 to 4. 

1. Not everyone is going to notice the correction post. I kindly ask that the team please hold off on making these types of announcements until the decision is final. These actions just cause more confusion within the community. It's normal for upper management to yo-yo back & forth between decisions. Just do it behind closed doors, please...it's more professional. 
2. Changing the requirement from 3 to 4 still requires BG players to use duplicate Playground items for a Lot that is intended (and supposed) to be a BG Lot. This small and subtle change still causes the BG player to feel like the Playground Lot gameplay is lacking and missing something, pushing Simmers to buy more packs. Free Updates that push Simmers to buy more packs are not something I want, nor do I want to see this repeated by the dev team moving forward. No strings attached, or no Free Updates please! And please focus on bug fixes for now anyway, as these changes back and forth also create more workload for the team. 
3. What is the reasoning behind changing the requirement from 3 to 4? 3 was fine; it allowed Simmers to create smaller playgrounds on smaller lots as well. So why the push to 4? If the team included some reasoning with your correction, maybe we could understand the change. Otherwise, it doesn't look good... again. 💔

Hope that means they are going go give us some new free playground equipment in an SDX drop, otherwise those requirements don't make sense.

Now I'm waiting for November update.

It would make sense if Maxis has planned to add free kids stuff to the basegame.
