Well at least that means we'll get an expansion pack in june :)

That would be three months of nothing... I’m not sure, that seems a bit too long. But I as well reckon there will be an EP in June.

I think we might get a Stuffpack in April or May.

There are no more stuff packs.

Says...? When was this confirmed?

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.

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.

All this time is probably being used to bug fix as much as possible so that that the Legacy Edition is properly patched and ready for download when it come available.
For those with lower end machines, not able to upgrade to any new packs from the end of February 2019, using the new specifications, they will have to each download the Legacy edition, apparently, and not wait for it to be delivered to them. I'm not sure how they will get to know if their game will run new packs though. Maybe EA/Microsoft will release a new version of that app. that checked if it will run for you.

There will be no updates or new packs for that version. Packs up until Strangerville are all that will be available for it

That hasn't been confirmed from the gurus.

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.

I could do with a fun Stuff Pack with a good theme.

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.
