    Still dubious about this patch and haven't done it yet 😬 I've only been able to get into my game once since the November update and haven't been able to play for the last 26+ days as I've been stuck on the 'press to play' screen 😔 I'm really hoping this patch fixes that issue, I miss my sim family alot. Fingers crossed 😄

    I hear you. I get anxious when a patch is announced. One patch, back in about 2020 wrecked my game save to the point I had to grab the same family (I had, for some unknown reason, saved to the Gallery). At least, my young Rock Star still had his status, so I wasn't starting all over from scratch. After that I got totally paranoid over the patches. Make certain you back up your game!

    It the same for me. Every time I get it running ok, with all of my mods updated, then another darn update. I AM glad they are fixing the problems, I want that VERY MUCH. But dang, I barely get back to playing again then BAMN another update. 🤪

    In theory this patch will come with new Maxis Kits.

    I'm curious to see what else the studio has planned, the last 10 kits were very good.

    I just noticed in my time zone it's at 9:00pm and I'm not available then since the 25th is a day I'm out during the evening for personal reasons I won't say and won't be back in time since I will be needing my sleep. Well I missed my chance on that :( Thanks for the advice though. The 1 time I wanted to get into the Q&A to ask about the bugs I can't. Well if someone else does ask about those bug that would be great but for me asking sadly not this time. I don't know how long it's open so maybe there is a chance I could still get in there the next day. I though it was 4:00pm but that wasn't my time zone. It's saying it's 9:00pm for me. Thanks again for letting me know and can't wait to see the Laundry list when it comes out :)

  • Oh no not another update 😫 I've only just managed to get into the game again on console after the November update broke it for me 😐

    I'll be posting highlights in this thread. There might be an official recap in the Info Hub forum.

    The Q&A channel will be open for questions shortly before it begins. You'll be able to post your questions and concerns there.

    Laundry List should also be out next week.

  • Any chance on getting that information here ? I mean, for those that do not use discord ?
