This is happening to me as well. I also play on a PS4. For me, I’ve gone into CAS three times between yesterday and today since the update and all 3 times, my game crashed at some point while I’m in CAS and I’ve already lost about 3 hours of my life re-dressing Sims only to have the game crash and everything I’ve done simply evaporates. I have submitted PS4 reports that start with “CAS Crash”.
After the December 2019 update the exact same issue started happening and it wasn’t fixed until the September 2020 update when the patch notes indicated that you guys “checked around and found some additional memory. This should help those Simmers who were unfortunate enough to crash during travel and transitioning in and out of Build Buy on some of their more built-up saves.” With that issue (that took almost 9 months to get fixed) it also crashed consistently while in CAS, when traveling, and when going in and out of Build/Buy mode. After the September update my game hasn’t crashed once. Until today, thanks to yesterday’s update.
I CANNOT believe this is happening AGAIN.. My game has literally run correctly for just 2 months over the past year. I haven’t bought the last 2 or 3 packs that were put out because I was done putting more money into a game that never ran correctly or consistently. I was finally confident in the game again and was going to purchase the Snowy Escape pack this Friday, but after this, I’m going to have to seriously reconsider that decision. Was looking forward to playing my game today as I have the day off from work, but nope. The only thing that seems to be consistent about this game is the frustration and disappointment it causes. :-(
