    Some good content in this new update like Cool Lisa, Fit Milhouse and Macaroni's shed. But as usual with EA there's problems. The Lag and FP glitch/bug is annoying as hell.

    ok i don't get it.

    they just FORCED the update on me, KNOWING about the lag you all have been reporting.

    now i have lag too.

    they could have let me collect a few more eggs to try to get Blocko, Shari, or Sean!

    and on top of that, the FP is broken so I STILL can't finish my neighbor sweep that they interrupted half-way through to force the update!

    way to drop the ball, then kick it across the street, then into the sewer, where a gator bit a hole in it, EA!!!

    All my designs look unfinished because i can't place as many plants, streetlights, and fences as i would like. PLEASE REMOVE THE LIMIT, EA!

    Do you think it would be a good idea to put a sign-up thread in the Bugs and Issues section? Wasn't there a time in the past when there was a major, widespread problem where people were either losing or not receiving items, and couldn't complete a quest --

    And a thread was set up specifically to list what they had lost in the glitch ... and those who signed up in that thread were recompensated and got everything they'd lost?

    I could be wrong, because I wasn't one of them ... but I thought one of the mods set it up.

    (Sorry, mods. As if you have nothing else to do with your time, right?)

    if that was the case, it would be AWESOME if all of these similar threads were merged, and one "Easter Lag/FP counter bug" was made known to use instead.

    i do wish there was more housekeeping on this forum, but it is on par with EA service overall so why expect more...

    but the game is currently unplayable. so we're all just waiting. so glad they forced the update. i could have been collecting more eggs.

    What a glitchy mess of an update. They better not screw up the yard sale and the summer event.

    Better take cover, in case mine isn't the only response to your statement.

    The mods are volunteers. Not employees of EA. They work on their own free time. We can hardly expect them to be on top of a myriad of threads created one after the other after the other.

    (I'm sure you didn't know that, or you wouldn't have said it the way you did about EA service. But just to give you a heads-up.)

    Seriously though, my game issues are just missing FP's and crashing when I try to visit a few specific friends. No lagging or crashing when doing other **** though. Oh well I'll sit and wait for a patch.

    I was just forced to update and the game is horrendously slow. Plus I was kicked off twice when I tried to log on after the update. Getting rather tired of this nonsense :(

    I didn't update until I was forced to, and the update has rendered my game almost unplayable. It lags, it's crashed five times, and I can't get any Frink points. Miserable.

    Oh, I did a clean reinstall and it's still awful.

    Well with this update EA is living up to their motto if it ain't broke we're going to break it.

    I get the lag too, but the update has solved another problem: I no longer have minutes-long delays when tapping on roads, rivers, and pavement. It's been discussed on the forum before, and it's no exaggeration: I've had minutes-long delays on different devices.

    If they can fix the lag without reintroducing the old problem, I'll probably really regret burning through all those donuts during Easter when I didn't think I'd be around much longer.

    So to all of you who had the river/road/pavement glitch: now is the time to fix up your towns!

    They finally forced me to get rid of easter. Now the lag makes my game unplayable. Awesome work again EA. Could you clowns possibly be any worse at your jobs?
