Last name didn't change after getting married.

Well, you could edit them in CAS by doing the cheat testingcheats true and then cas.fulleditmode and then shift-clicking on your sim to Modify in CAS, but people have been saying that it screws up relationships... so I guess we just have to wait for a patch? :\

Why should we be forced to use a cheat for something that should be in the game already ?

Agreed. I just got it a few days ago and now I can't even believe I paid for this. I have been playing the sims since it first came out as The Sims and though the graphics and loading are much better I have to admit I am extremely disappointed in the game play. They should have waited longer before releasing it and made it more complete. I feel like I am playing a Beta version or something. :/

The sad part is, the game was already pushed back once, it was originally supposed to be released in spring 2014.

So it's still not patched in? Does anyone know how taxing it might be to implement this in the game? Haven't the names been changing since way back?

It's sad that cheats are needed for a very basic game function. I hope that the fix is in a future patch NOT a EP.

There is now a renaming mod. I haven't tried it, but it's gotten good feedback.

Just patched the new patch did they "fix" the relationship bug by taking out the cas.fulleditmode ability? I had my sims married but didn't change the name just saved and was going to do it today and can't seem to do it now.

Um, at least in Germany A LOT of people keep their names after marrying. Perhaps this is not a bug but just going with modern times :D .
