Latest patch 1.62

I don't trust the patches any more. That's why I haven't updated since last year, before the July patch that caused the game to crash when trying to load saved games.

Nevermind, saw on rumour and spec that it's later in the week. Usually it says it in the patch notes.

I don't see this patch 1.62. I hadn't updated my Sims game in a while, so I didn't bother updating 1.61 because I heard so many people had issues with it. Since I heard this 1.62 was out, I assumed I had to go ahead and update with 1.61 before I was able to get 1.62. But 1.62 is not showing up as an update on my ps4. Shouldn't it be out by now?

Yeh it's out now and when you update it will always update with the latest patch.

It came out on the day that I posted but later in the day, as I'm on GMT and hadn't thought about the time difference.

So far the patch has been fine. I just roll with it. We don't have to worry about mods and they do fix things fairly quickly. Also we get lots of free stuff. The crashing patch was very upsetting. I'd get, like, 10 mins of gameplay and then it would crash. So frustrating.

I would say that the patches have added a little bit more depth to gameplay and there is more challenge but if you're happy with your game as is then don't spoil a good thing. I've really been enjoying starting with a scenario and building a story off of it as starting with a standard save can be a bit bland at time. Helps me get more invested in the characters.

When I downloaded the patch with "University" pack, many of my houses in my old save became unplayable as they were crashing.
