Patch Released Jan 16

Patch coming today. Back up your saves and make sure you're offline if you don't want your game to update.

  • It doesn’t need to be an either/or choice. I bought the pack and have simply been getting on with other things in the game while these bugs are fixed. I haven’t done anything much with residential rentals yet. I’ve explored Tomarang a bit and tried out some of the gameplay. But I’ve mainly been playing in Henford-on-Bagley lately and my save game is fine as far as I know. I haven’t noticed any problems or corruption. So if you want the bonus items you can still get the pack now, and do other things in the game until the issues are fixed.

    I'm also waiting. I don't want to reward a company with money for a broken product. They create these exclusive items to create FOMO in people, but I find these marketing tricks predatory and annoying more than anything else. If they'd released a stable pack, I would have bought it by now, but since they could not do that, they try to lure people in with bonus items.

    There's no way I'm buying a pack that is known to corrupt saves over a few bonus items, even if I can work around the issues.

    @FreddyFox1234 I'm doing something similar. I bought For Rent 10 days ago before reports of corrupt saves but have only been using certain aspects of the pack. Enjoying the world. Having fun with new traits, BB and CAS items, etc. I did build one rental duplex, but none of my played sims live there or manage it, just NPCs.

    I don't want to attempt tenant or landlord gameplay until bugs are resolved. I had hoped issues around rentals would be fixed by now. That hasn't happened. My game is fine, but I won't tempt fate by playing with rentals. I understand people's legitimate concerns.

    Extending the availability of the limited-time items would be the right thing for the company to do, IMO.
  • I noticed a really random glitch after the patch—most of the doors from the Greenhouse Haven kit in my saves & library have changed swatches, lol. Has anyone else noticed this? I’ve been changing them back as I play with my different saves, lol.
