I haven't updated my game yet, so I'm still playing the prior version but I definitely do not want neighborhood stories. I use MCCC and I prefer to keep using it rather than have EA screw up my game and my sims relationships. I'll patch my game when they patch this patch and add an off switch.
That's exactly how I feel, I don't use MCCC for any type of story progression but I don't want EA to mess with my families lives and I 1000% do not want a bunch of interrupting phone calls disrupting my story. Especially after seeing some of the ones people have gotten. (IE: a grandmother asking her toddler granddaughter if she should switch careers).
And since I had zero interest in the "manly" kit they just put out, I have no need to update the game and will pass on any new DLC that's upcoming until they add a complete "OFF" toggle for Neighborhood Stories.
I'm not updating either, until this feature either gets an official on/off switch or a modded one. I hope it gets an official off setting though, since not everyone who wants to turn it off uses mods. But for me, eh, I already have over 80 mods, what's one more. :lol:
It's not a bad spot for me to wait it out, since at the moment I'm not having any bugs that really interfere with my style of gameplay, and I have all the packs I'm currently interested in getting. I already always play offline anyway. So I can be pretty patient. But, I think it was a poorly thought out choice on their part to introduce this feature without an on/off setting from the start, given how divided the community is on whether or not they wanted a story progression feature in the first place.
