Bust the Dust disappointment

I thought they slowed accumulation in the last patch, I haven’t had time to play for awhile, and I never play with pets. I literally only bought that pack for the world, the bb, and the cas.

I have at least 5 mods just to fix all the annoyances that i found in this pack. That being said, i like it. I don't know how i played before, without houses getting used and dirty... it's the same feeling i have with Seasons. Since it first came out in the sims franchise story, and after i tried it, i don't know how i played without weather...

I like Bust The Dust, kits can add more chores for Sims homes like lawn mowing, aquarium care, swimming pool cleaning or wood chopping. The kit was patched in the last update. When a dust bunny appears, my Sim automaticaly uses his vaccuum cleaner full upgraded, and all the dust and the bunnies dissapears.

Options are allows a good idea, but compared to all the other things I want added to my gameplay options UI a dust slider is pretty low priority to me. I was fine with the original level with a household of eight, but, yes, anything outright broken should also be fixed.

I don't quite understand the too fast claim. It never seemed too fast time in the respect that it would always be too fast to me. It's like laundry and every other mundane chore in the game. It is bothersome and must be taken care of. That is the realism point, and I feel my real life house gets dirty too fast too but all you can do is get cleaning.

I do not see a lot of talk of it being unmanageable or twisted by other mechanics either, and it wasn't for me, unlike say how broken laundry is after hot and cold outfits and IL were added. Living in Sulani is laundry tartarus because Sims constantly go in and out of the water and leave piles upon piles for me to deal with-- Even when I am not playing eight Sims like I would prefer. I have also encountered bugs in general which will keep me from emptying hampers when I do loads of laundry and it just assures that you can never get on top of it. How many real life families have to have two full washer dryer combo set ups, a clothesline, and skeleton maid to keep their clothes washed?

I don't think it comes back too fast. I first purchased it the day before the Patch came out and I noticed a huge difference, in the dust accumulation, right away. May I have a patch to curb the dust accumulation in my RL house, please?

Aww man I guess I’ll keep waiting. I want the feature but I don’t want it completely broken and not working right.

Hmm, that is weird. I bought the kit after the patch. I have found that dust is really slow to build up in my game. Seems my sims homes are always sparkling clean. I direct them to vacuum most of the time. Love it so far, hope the next patch doesn't break it for me. I have had that happen before. Had to repair my game after a few patches.

I think it accumulates just as fast in RL as well. At least it's more fun to deal with in the game.

I may be thinking too outside the box, but this kit is absolute trash for anything but the most standard of homes.
I created myself a nice open air villa with a small fence instead of walls, and when the floor started getting dirty, I whipped out the vacuum and... nothing! The sim refused to do anything! After an extensive - and mostly fruitless - bout of researching and testing, I found out it's because the game treated the now filthy floor as being outside, which nixed any possible vacuuming - I couldn't even put in a robot vacuum because it needed to be "placed indoors". To add to the dumb bizarre situation, I am not even getting dust piles or dust bunnies, just a slow accumulation of dirtiness that I cannot clean because of the stupid restrictions I was not made aware of. So either I ruin my home or turn off thepart of the game I paid $7.95 AUD for. Again, I may be in the vast minority with this, but to me it is unforgivably stupid.

That's the one kit I will never ever own. Personally, it's the worst ever. :s
