They did a great job hiding the July 4th, so maybe they are now trying to keep more stuff hidden from now on. Possibly we will finally see Patty and Selma or even Kirk Van Houten, as those have been cropping up every now and then. I doubt Eddie and Lou, as, in relation to the game, they haven't had many leaked indications in the files, from what I gather.
Please excuse my ignorance!
I read about these files on here quite often, but never looked for them myself, as quite like having an idea of what's coming up, but not too many spoilers, like knowing what they look like and prices etc..... But totally understand why people do!
But what I don't understand is, why do they hide some things from the files like July 4th/Lincoln as above, yet, if its an update, surely they don't want anything being leaked?!
Or is it purely just to try tease eager players /create speculation on forums waiting for updates?
Never asked before as seems a novice question....
I'll try to answer, don't know if it will make sense.
Sonetimes when we get a ghost update or any update at all, new dlc(content-buildings, characters, dialogue) is added to the servers, which means anyone who has a file searching program like ifunbox can look in the files and see what's coming next if they know what they're doing. There's only been 2 updates that have come that the file searchers weren't aware of, Paddys Day and 4th of July. Why these mini holiday updates get added on to the server differently than level/event updates, I have no idea.
Also, when the files are added to the server by EA they have a version number (4.2.8 was level 30, 4.3 was Squidport, etc..) so that's how people speculate on what's coming next. So obviously we can't get version 4.3.3 before 4.3.2 for instance.
I don't know if that made sense, but I tried
