A patch, a patch, a patch........I hope....

@PifflePrincess I turned off all sound in my game and so far no crashes. We'll see if it continues.

I played off-line first and my game crashed.

I then turned off the sound and there has been no crashes.
I've been playing without sound for an hour and no crashes. This is a crazy bug but at least I can play.

It seems like the no sound workaround doesn't always work.

I just tried to play a bit after downloading the new pack but with not much luck.
First I turned down just the main volume in settings, leaving all the other volume switch as they were, and the game crashed after more or less 20 minutes.
Then I tried again, lowering to 0% all volume settings and, at first, it seemed to work since I went past the 20-30 minutes of play, but at more or less 1 hour it crashed again.
I'm not gonna strain my ps4 with continuous crashes so I'll just have to wait for the fix patch, hoping that it comes as soon as possible...

According to the site, SimGuruNick and SimQARobo do not need saves from either platform. It appears as though they have everything they need to solve the bug.

I will be controversial, yet brave, and say that they’ll have a patch out late on Monday, or early Tuesday. People are very plumed off about this, so the higher ups are probably trying to get the fix out as soon as the team is able. This is the last thing anyone would want during a big release.

I haven’t played in awhile but my game crashed as soon as I tried booking a vacation. My game used to crash constantly on my old save but I haven’t experienced any crashes on my current save until now. I haven’t made any changes or downloaded new content since then either.

I’m not buying any DLCs or playing until this is sorted. If that means I’ll never play again because these issues won’t be resolved, so be it.

Played with sound options off. Still crashed. Didn’t work for me. Oh well...

Of course the workaround doesn't work.

So is the "sound workaround" (that apparently doesn't work) just for PS4. Us XBox One players are having crashes and glitches of various types. I put in a bug report and afterwards got told to put in a bug report!

@Yamsisims XB1 current issue information here.

Alright, it’s Monday... it’s the week of the 20th.

Patch, please!!!

(Patience isn’t my strong suit.)
