Trying to play in the noble career.... but

Question

I just found out that it is 24/7 - which means that my sim can't go to festivals, can't go on dates, won't receive invites... Is that really how it's meant to be? I saw a bug report on it, but it said awaiting more reports - and there are no new reports... So does that mean I just have to live with it? That this is only an issue for me? Or how do others work around it?

I was actually having a lot of fun but this has somewhat dampened my spirit...

Same with the 'strange sims initiating conversations with your sim' - it's almost impossible to go anywhere, with another sim, just wanting to be left in peace - I was even going outside the bar to try to talk to this other sim, when 10 sims came and 'joined the conversation' without invite. Why can't we just tell them to go away? And I don't want 200 strangers in my friend panel. I don't know them and I don't like them and I don't want them there. That was supposedly fixed. I just don't see it.

I'm sure - but the point is; I don't use mods and I am not about to. And I am of the strange persuasion that when you buy something; you expect it to work - especially it's CORE FUNCTION - like playing as a Noble! Since that was the point of the whole pack! 😐

Yes - I am really annoyed at the fact that people post it as a bug report and then they ask for more reports - when they KNOW they MADE THE PACK THIS WAY! Instead of simply letting us know WHEN it it will be FIXED! 😠

The Noble career was simply made bugged on purpose....

The 24/7 schedule itself is actually an intentional feature of the Noble career, but it causes a major logic bug with the base game's social system. Because a Noble Sim is technically "on duty" every hour of every day (7:00 AM to 7:00 AM), the game's Drama Scheduler cannot find an off-work time window to trigger phone calls, festival invites, dates, or social outings.

So WHEN is this going to be FIXED? Yes - bug reports have been posted. But you are waiting on more reports - why? When you know this is an intentional feature that is breaking the game?

Hmmm 🤔...&nbsp;Very interesting observation there - I never really thought about that before!&nbsp;Still I have no doubt that someone out there will find a way to Mod the game, that will solve the problem. I don't hold my breath for EA to (EVENTUALLY?) fix their own problems 😂 !&nbsp;(note that "?" after the word "Eventually" 😉)

Yes, it is very annoying that either you get told to use/get mods to fix something and/or have to wait for a public uproar to get fixes (if that even happens).

Of course may bugs are caused by mods/cc, and if a bug cannot be recreated it is very tricky to fix. But there are a lot of blatant mistakes/oversights sometimes with internal file proof/screenshots, that just sit and wait. Sometimes the fix is even explained and fairly easy to do (as in a modder can do it), but it should be fixed officially.

Yes! It shouldn't be our job! Thank you for the links!!&nbsp;
