Are vampires bugged from the patch?

I heard people saying here not to play vampires because the patch reset their power, is that true?
I mean they just fixed the relationship bug but left vampires out?
My game is updating right now and I'm afraid to play

I believe you can still play with vampires if you stay on their home lot, they seem to lose their powers when you travel elsewhere with them.

As stated above, the vampire perks will no longer function once you travel to a different lot. This applies to all vampires in the household, not just the one(s) you have visit said lot. You can use the drought of reconfiguration to have the perks take effect again, but they will fail once again every time the player clears the load screen.

So, if you keep them at home then everything is fine. Not exactly ideal.

And when will this be fixed? Thats horrible :'(

Your guess is as good as mine. I'd be more optimistic about the timing except for there being an EP drop tomorrow, which will no doubt be the team's priority. If I had to venture a wager I'd tell you to buckle up for a long road. This may be awhile.

What. The. Crud.

That is all. :|

Wow that is awful. I love traveling with my vampires. Please hotfix this...

Is there a simguru we can tag to make aware of the issue?

@SimQARobo Can you please look into this? And will this get a hotfix? I am afraid now to play with my vampires...

I think this is the first time I have been truly angry about anything in Sims 4. If this patch maims Aubrey and his family in my game I will be really annoyed. Maybe some people don't like vampires, but for some of us, we do want to play them O.o.

Edit to add, right now my game is refusing the update and to open, it's half patched and now saying a file is in use. Sigh. I guess the headaches figuring that out are about to begin...

It's not fixed by that emergency update? :o
