- SnaveXsNew AdventurerYou would have to go back further than that to see if there's a trend. There was a hint for Werewolves in the artwork for the backyard kit for kids though. Remember the glowing eyes in the bushes. Either way bugs have always been part of the Sims since the first iteration. I just want them to be fix. I don't mind the leaks but I don't think the two are connected, like if the dlc have bugs they'll just leak the game.
- Karamazov123Seasoned VanguardIIRC Batuu and Eco Lifestyle were leaked, and they didn't have bugs
- RoseQuartz724Seasoned NoviceEco Lifestyle had really bad NAP-related bugs.
- Eco Lifestyle had a lot of bugs!
- Just looking at those three packs, my hypothesis is that Werewolves was aimed at a more niche audience, and that occult players are more likely to be gamers in general. Maybe gamers are expected to be less likely to impulse buy. Wedding and High School in contrast are more suited to a wider audience and were probably expected to sell like hot cake regardless of quality.
- My guess is that it has less to do with leaks and more to do with how experienced the teams are. EA has had a lot of staff turnover in the past few years and it's difficult for a newer dev to work on an older IP, so a team with a bunch of new devs are probably going to create a product that is less compatible with existing software than one who is very familiar with it.
I think this also reflects the level of gameplay each pack has. High School Years and Snowy Escape have fewer features than Cottage Living and Eco Lifestyle. Werewolves has more gameplay than My Wedding Stories and fewer bugs. I've never bothered to compare the names of the developers and see which ones repeatedly create a low bug/high gameplay software but I think that's what it is. "LeGardePourpre;c-18193218" wrote:
The teams of TS4 and TS Mobile are busy with the project RENE for the next couple of years.
The Sims 4 is probably the lowest priority now.
These are done by totally different teams. IIRC Sims Mobile is done by a studio in Australia and Rene wouldn't have workers moving back and forth from TS4. However, TS4 has had smaller teams and outsourced a lot of their work in recent years.- mightyspritesimsRising HotshotOkay, maybe it's more complicated than I thought. Interesting insights about staffing, I had no idea how any of that worked.

The game play for Batuu was much more simplistic than HSY or Wedding Stories, with tons of rabbit holes. I don't own it, but I've seen a let's play."SnaveXs;c-18192470" wrote:

I don't think a vague hint like that counts as a leak, does it?
