I hope there is an emergency patch today.
I want to get the SP tomorrow but see no point in spending my money if I'm not even playing the game.
Well then at least you can understand why many of us are no longer buying Sims 4 stuff because we are missing that life stage some of us feel the game is empty with out. It is sort of like what you feel with having clubs then having them go away and no longer in your game. It is how it feels to have toddlers for 11 years and then they make them disappear and never come back again. People tell me to suck it up and get over it - but I bet you get the point of how we all feel that miss the toddlers and they have left us waiting over 2 years now. How would you feel if clubs stayed gone that long?
Of course to me game play things are on a lesser plane than an entire life stage - so missing a game play feature is a small comparison - but still it might help others who did not feel what we feel about missing toddlers - understand a little better what it is like to have an important part of your play style torn away from you and your game.
I am not affected by the clubs missing as I don't play with clubs period - but I can feel your pain as I just cannot enjoy this game without toddlers so I can see how you feel. It is just not your game any more when something vital is suddenly not there anymore. For the sake of the clubbers - I do hope they fix it soon for you all - a lot faster than we have gotten toddlers anyway. LOL.
(Just to see the prospective - I used to play my Sims games 4-6 hours every day but since Sims 4 came out in 2014 I still do not even have 280 hours into the game because I just cannot enjoy it without the tots. (That's how badly Sims 4 cripples my play style having no toddlers. Map builders are going through the same problem with no ability to build as they are used to in previous Sims games in Sims 4, and this has also not changed since this game came out). Granted yours is just a broken issue and I am sure they will eventually fix it, unlike me getting the tots or builders getting more build - but at least you can taste what we feel and why we complain a lot about it. It is hard to enjoy a game you have played for over a decade one way and not have that in the game anymore - you must see that even though it's only been a few days for the clubs.
The Sims 4 never had toddlers, but the club system is what Get Together was all about. So I don't miss what wasn't there in the first place. It is unfortunate that you are disappointed, but the Sims wasn't created just for one type of player. Different iterations try different things and attracts new fans and sometimes it is not what others want. I had to wait out Sims 3. I didn't like it. It took away my ability to play multiple families. But I didn't feel that it was appropriate for me to come to the forums and complain constantly. I allowed those that were enjoying it to enjoy it without feeling the need remind then that it didn't have what I wanted.
At any rate this thread is about the broken club system. I logged in to see what the progress was. If you miss toddlers that much, why aren't you playing them in one of the other games? I played Sims 2 for 10 years. I had a good time.
