Dine Out: Broken pack with lost potential?

I usually only play as a customer - it is much less glitchy in this style of gameplay. The biggest disappointment to me is being unable to be the chef in your own restaurant. :(

Oh, 100% When I saw the trailer I thought we'd be able to run our own restaurants and be the chef, waiter, host etc Or have our family members (as a family run restaurant) working their with the OPTION of hiring. NOT only being able to hire :( Definitely disappointed the majority of people.

Almost every pack has bugs and glitches in them and they have simply been overlooked or ignored in order to move on to other dlc.

one bug in dine out that is most glaring is when you order something to eat, there are times where it's like the order was not even acknowledged and every other sim that comes to dine gets something to eat, half a day can go by before you finally run out of patience and leave, worse still when you go back to try order before you leave, the game recognised you ordered from the menu but the food still isn't coming to the table.

that one bug is really annoying. so when i have a sim who made it through the other side of that and learned all the experimental food, i then save the sim for a new save, and then if i need to get another sim to learn the recipes, i have that sim who learned them to cook them at home from the chef station and send the food across to that sim i want to learn. This is just to get around that bug.

Yeah I agree! The amount of time customers spend at the Restaurant OR even as a player sim eating at one - it just takes too long to get your meal & eat etc. Same with the customers in a player-run restaurant, one sim can be there 4 hours!! And STILL be eating... Far too long.

I own Dine Out and i don't have much problems, but i have never owned a restaurant. I only play as a customer. Usually my food gets served not quicky but also it doesn't take a very long time. I think it's kind of normal. But i only play with premade restaurants.

But i think that they won't go back and fix the issues that people that own restaurants often talk about. They won't. There are big bugs in this game, bugs that are more than annoying, bugs that take away the fun. I think that people that has bought all dlc are plagued with bugs and they don't come back. They fix a dozen of small bugs per month... the game wilk never be fixed. Specially what is so old as Dine Out.

Yup 100% agree! I doubt they will go back and fix the buggy content! At this point I think its push as much content out as possible to bring in the $$$ and forget the old content. I think this game needs a YEAR of bug fixes and content upgrades to existing packs before bringing out more content. But it seems theyre working on the Sims 5 now - so lets PRAY they actually FIX the bugs and issues with the content on TS4 prior to release & continue after release. I think I'll give up on the Sims as a franchise entirely if they manage to ruin the Sims 5.
