I’d appreciate it if they unlocked the decorative items from Strangerville, honestly. Not sure I necessarily expect it, though. Hopes aren’t high for much.

Otherwise, I really just want bug fixes. I’d trade any content drops in the patch for more bug fixes, because there are a lot of things that need sorting out.

THIS. It was a stupid choice for them to not unlock all those beautiful buy/build items in Strangerville. I used a mod to open them up but I shouldn't have to do that. If a modder managed to do it that fast then the actual team should have no problem!

I think they confirmed that that was an oversight.

Somehting different, but do we know anything about the next Maxis Monthly, Guru Garage or even where our CM has gone? I miss all her updates and infos...

I'm worried cause Kate has been silent.

Yeah, uh there’s a reason for that. I’ll just say it’s not good and let you decide if you want to look into it more.

Is there anything confirmed about this, then? What do you mean?

I would like to give you a short summary, but threads and discussions about it have been locked here, so I won't risk it. I hope it's okay to link this summary without any further comment though https://simscommunity.info/2019/03/11/lets-talk-about-what-happened-in-the-community/
People hinted at it because the Sims team has been quiet since then, so who knows what's going on behind the scenes right now.

I guess it is to do with that, but I hope they will announce something soon regarding the CM as this isn’t helping anyone, either.

If you don’t mind me asking what is the urgency? Her inactivity hasn’t caused any disruptions in the day-to-day here, or realistically on any other Sims platform from what I can tell. I mean just yesterday the GM of Maxis studios sent out a few tweets ranking usage of all of their DLC. That was more interesting than anything I remember the last few CMs ever doing. We surely weren’t getting news from Kate on a regular basis, not that it’s her decision when to release info, but I’m just saying it’s not like her absence recently has left us with anything less than what we were already getting on that front.

Eh, I think people are just worried about Kate because Kate's the one in charge of the Maxis Monthly streams. And besides, she's always super active on Twitter posting player-made gallery lots and rooms and stuff.

Plus she's just super nice and she's gone unusually quiet. It's natural for people to be worried.
