Free Hot-Tub?

Perfect patio has been out for how many years now? Time that people who bought the pack had a hot tub and people who didn't buy it did not? Money well spent for the time.

It's been long enough in my opinion. Perfect Patio was one of the first packs, we had enough exclusivity time with that item.

My question to you if you believe that some packs should be moved into the free bin, then what do they do with the Simmers that already paid for the packs? I feel like you have the right idea, but maybe they should of done something like fix babies or added cars, like everyone has asked for and no one would be upset and happy for everyone as a community.

How should they pay back the simmers who paid full price for the basegame when someone can buy it on sale now for $6?

I'd allow them to bug CS for a refund if it was a super recent purchase. If you bought it a while ago, though, you most likely got your $10 value out of it by now. I really won't be upset if they want to expand the basegame by rolling in old content to make it feel like a better deal for new players.

It was never on my radar to buy, so I'm open to accepting such a wonderful gift from them. :)

Considering Perfect Patio came out almost five years ago, I think I've gotten my $10 worth since then regarding the play value of hot tubs.

I don't really care that a new one has been released to the public for free; it was in honor of a 20-year celebration, and you still have to buy Perfect Patio to gain access to the other variations.

I'll enjoy having a new type of hot tub, too. Isn't often that you get new variations of special items once they've already come out.

I don't mind at all. I'm not one of those people that think others shouldn't have things for free simply because I bought chose to buy a similar item earlier. It's a nice gift and I hope people enjoy it.

I'm happy that it was given -- I had no idea it wasn't an option for simmers unless they owned a certain pack(s).

Edited: had a bit of a rant and thought this wasn't the best place for it. Removed. May repost my thoughts in a more appropriate thread.

On one hand, I guess it’s cool because I don’t have PP so it’s a new gameplay item for me. But on the other hand, I don’t think it’s an exciting gameplay element, and don’t know if I’ll ever use it. So mostly I thought this was a whatever gift and therefore I wish they had added something else rather than this. I’m not unhappy with it, but also I’m definitely not understanding why it’s meant to be seen as a great free piece of content to gift to all Simmers. It’s actually boring.

Anyways, I saw someone in another thread say they would have taken more bug fixes and tbh yeah. I’d rather have bug fixes over this hot tub. But they told me to keep my expectations low and I did and I’m over it.

I have the Perfect Patio pack and I don't mind at all that the base game got hot tubs for free. :)

I bought the pack and I am very happy that they made this choice. It was their mistake for releasing a pack that focuses/specializes in “hot tubs”. Big mistake on game design.
