This game is a mess

Create a sim is now broken if you load sims from your Gallery; they just don't save correctly. For some reason it's impossible to create a house with a roof now? If you mess with elevation at all it's impossible to make a custom home. It's so effing difficult it feels like you need a degree in BS to understand how to do anything when creating a home these days. When did this become so complicated? Why the F is creating a Patio one of the most difficult things in the world? And I say this as someone who has experience programming a game and that was easier then creating a room with a roof in this game. It's absurd the direction this game has gone in. Every time you add something that looks cool it just eff's up the game even worse then it already is. It's like EA hired the dumbest programmers in the world to work on this game and just doesn't care because it sells well.

  • CAS in the game itself is a mess too.  I noticed that yesterday, I was editing a 3 sim family when I realised that all 3 family members had been given the same name by CAS when they loaded, and the same age.  It was a mother, teen daughter and child when I loaded them for editing. To get them back as they were, I had to use a cheat to reset the real ages and names after exiting CAS.

     

    How do the coders manage to make such a mess like this every time we get an update or patch?

  • DarkestPenguinIf you're experiencing problems with the game you should report it at Bug Reports, not the Feedback section.

    • I tried creating a household using a sim from the gallery and managed without any problems.
    • I tried to create a house and added roofs without any problems.
    • I tried raising some of the ground and added a pond to a lot, and I was able to create a house on it.
    • I was able to create a patio in the back of my house with the Flat Square tool.

    I wasn't able to recreate any of your problems. Can you give out more details on what's preventing you from accomplishing any of these actions?
