May Patch Speculation 2020

I'm putting this up a little early so I can mention what I'd like to see in the May Update.

What I'm hoping to see is a free update that give us an option for our sims to own multiple homes.

This was mentioned in the survey and I believe it would come as a free update.

Other things I'd like to see are fixes for the Tiny Living TV so seasonal event channels from Seasons are no longer missing and a fix for when sims take pics on community lots your no longer able to travel home. Happened to me this week.

  • The question I have at this point is are we getting a bugfix patch in May and a pre-game patch in late May/early June, or just the pre-game patch? I'm expecting the later, but the former isn't impossible.
  • I just want the university glitch fixed so I can get roommates again, all the items needed for that lot aren't recognised even if placed.

    Eco Lifestyle releasing on June 5 (Friday) means the pre-pack patch will release on June 2 (Tuesday). It's very likely there won't be a May patch.

    We may already need to a June patch speculation thread as we now know for sure ladders will come with the June patch.

    I'll put one up.

    Yeah, when they need to release a hot fix patch.

    The frequency of regular patches has definitely been trending down in the last couple of years. In the first 4 years of TS4, they only missed releasing a monthly patch once (October 2015). Since September 2018, they’ve missed releasing a patch in 6 different months.

    They are also now seemingly releasing PC/Mac and console patches on the same day since the console gallery. They certainly need to release all major patches on the same day if all future packs are going to be released on the same day on PC/Mac and consoles. Because console patch certification can take 1-2 weeks, this gives them even more incentive to release fewer patches.
