Eco Living is straight up unplayable

Every single person with Early Access pointed this out and it's still not fixed. I cannot build using these windows. :/

    So far the only issue I'm having is that the outdoor trash cans are suddenly overflowing with no way to empty them. It's also been a little stuttery since the last patch, but far from unplayable.

    The game actually is unplayable for a lot of people, not because of windows but because of a variety of other issues. I always expect some bugs with a new update or pack, but there are a lot of bugs this time. Pets disappearing, error messages and crashes, fire pee, the fabricator whine even after deleting, Sims just keep making meals but won't finish eating them, mature plants that are in season going back to seed, in game computers not working right, and on and on. Many are just annoying, but some actually prevent players from playing and some make it unenjoyable even if possible. Hopefully there will be another patch soon to fix some of these issues. I feel lucky that I can still play with only a few of the annoying bugs. Others aren't as lucky.


    This is the buggiest expansion ive played, its making it frustrating to play, especially the cancelling of interactions constantly (especially eating) and the spawning of infinite amounts of clay.

    As far as I can see, the "frame" of the window is missing. It shows on the same windows for taller walls. They look fine on one side, but not the other. I'm sure they'll fix it.

    Just keep in mind that 'unenjoyable' and 'unplayable' are two different things.

    True, but even if it not unplayable, it may be an nuisance for some people especially some knows how long some bugs are fixed or not fixed and for them it can be an game wrecker even if other parts of the game works. Most games even outside of EA/Maxis has the same problem but it is how soon the bug is addressed and not months for it to be fixed.

    If you have the reuse & recycle lot trait, there should be an npc garbage collector who comes by once a week and empties them, you can also get a recycler and put it on your lot and sort through the garbage and make bits and pieces for projects and manage your trash overflow that way. If you remove that trait then your outdoor cans become bottomless again.
