Whats Broke Now

I think this has been broken for a while, but my sims get stuck watching movies, like the movie just loops while the progress bar just freezes at the start. I've only seen it work once in maybe nine difference saves. Also, Dine Out is still broken, but I don't think that's news at this point. :-/

Not read through the whole thread yet but had anyone noticed that groups playing darts never play the whole game? You get the moodlets as if they have but only one sim actually throws any darts. It's irritating because it's a good way to get multiple people as friends. Please fix this EA!

Also noticed left overs are causing kids and toddlers from fridge to pause and not eat fully. Plus portion sizes don't go down and don't seem to fill them up.

I haven't updated since spring and won't be doing it anytime soon, if ever. It's only getting worse with every following patch.

My last update was the patch before the patch for Eco Lifestyle. I figured the pre-Eco patch would introduce a bunch of bugs, because of all the gameplay changes. However, I also thought that they would have churned out fixes for most of it by now, rather than layering on another bunch of bugs for another game pack. I'll be glad when I can (eventually) update again, but not sure when that will be.

All my essential mods were good to go, tested mods and my favorite CC on the second computer and everything worked! So now I’ve updated my game.

I just need do download Batuu in a few hours and then I can go offline again :)

I've been having a few bug issues myself since the update. My sims grab plates of food and put them down without even eating then grab another plate and do the same plus they cancel all other actions just to get a glass of water or constantly play basket ball and won't quit unless I constantly cancel their actions and make them eat or remove the basket ball goal if I don't they end up dying from starvation. It really is getting bad.

Do you guys get all these bugs with your Mods folder pulled too? It's possible that one of your mods is actually causing some of the problems even if people say it isn't broken. I discovered that there had been a new hotfix uploaded on a mod I use about a day after I'd updated the previous update. My game is running better, not perfectly, but much better. Except for the water drinking, that is still extremely persistent. ;)

Really starting to wonder how much play testing is actually going into these patches. It's basic problems like these that made some simmers so disappointed about Batuu, they have the time and resources (and a firm nudge from Disney) to chuck out a Star Wars pack but apparently not to fix bugs and problems that are basically game breaking and limiting.

They probably just test the new DLC with the base game installed.

I kind of get the impression that might be what they’re doing. It’s like, uh, hey EA/Maxis, we need our game to work if you want us to be able to play that DLC ?
