I'm hearing mixed results from this patch to lower ailment frequency. Some say their illnesses have lessened, others say they're still happening way too often. Now EA is coming out with a toggle option to turn ailments either on or off. Too bad it has to be so drastic. I guess contagious diseases are just too complicated to code effectively!
For me, I really don't want to buy EbN until illnesses are under some kind of control. Ailments could be a fun feature, something different. But not when they take over the whole game! EA does this all the time; they overdo features and make them unbearable. No thanks. 😷
Don't own the fairy pack yet, so the illnesses are not on bugging me, but about contagious illnesses should have been programmed with some anti stuff / immunity, either from medical treat or from the fact having that illness in the past. Immunity could even be passed edown genetically to reduce the frequency. In a game we would not need o be realistic as whether the illness is caused by virus or magic, some sims could be immune anywhowe.
Holding back a week or two until I patch, but plan to do it before the late August patch.
I was just thinking, is there an immunity reward sims can buy with aspiration points? If not, there really should be.
