I made a post detailing a few bugs in High School Years and for some reason it was closed, not sure why as there was no negativity in the post whatsoever. I did have a few questions on the suggested "work arounds" though, so .. since the original post was closed I'll just toss those into this new one.
So for the bug where it's impossible to improve your grades if you actually follow your Sims to High School. If I'm not mistaken, the suggested work around is to not follow your sim to school and their grades will go up. My question to this is, is it really a workaround if all your doing is bypassing the expansion entirely in order to make something work. To me telling someone to not use the expansion in order to make the expansion work is kind of counter productive. I would say the "work around" isn't a work around at all.
For the issue of Sims getting up in the middle of a test, the "work around" was to keep canceling the sims actions in order for them to continue taking the test. When you cancel the action another one immediately pops back up, it happens so fast that you can barely click on those actions fast enough to avoid the test being interupted. If you have multiple sims in the same class it becomes almost impossible. You have to pause the game literally every couple of seconds and swap between sims over and over in order for them all to take the test. What should take a minute on high speed turns into a 5-10 minute ordeal that is the opposite of fun, it's a chore. Again I don't find this to be a suitable work around.
For the Social bunny work around, I have been told if you make new posts your follower count will go up. That's just not true however, as soon as the bug happens and all your posts start showing 0m, I have yet to get further followers. I've religiously made new posts, replied to other sims posts, done everything in social bunny that there is to do and the follower count never goes up after the bug appears.
I hate relying on mods to fix issues like this, but after almost six months since release, multiple patches which fail to fix any of these issues, and no mention of these issues on the list of bugs that they are currently working on, I've lost faith that these will be addressed in any reasonable amount of time.
I still feel these issues warrant a refund, but if that's not possible then I'm curious if anyone has found any mods that fix any of these issues. I've done my due diligence looking for them, but was unable to find any.
Any help is appreciated,
Thanks in advance.
