Hi Guys,
I need everyone's feedback on the compiled list. I plan to do some cha...
Ideas
I'm going to be the odd one here and say that the list of complied bugs should be retired. The list had a purpose on the old forums since we didn't have tags. The new forums have tags so it's easier for players to find bug reports. Instead of creating a new list, the tags in the forum should be improved to help players find bugs by those specific categories you listed and by the expansion packs they own. It would be better to improve the forum experience for players rather than creating another list. I think more energy should be put into the collection threads and improving the search system in the forums by adding the appropriate tags to forum posts.
thanks for your feedback.
The issue with the tags is that people just put anything and it's a LOT of work to make them work correctly.
I would also welcome forum improvements but I have no influence on them sadly.Top Ten (or 25) ?, Index of all pages and some other general info.
This can be easily found by filtering the forum posts by "Most Liked".
Index of all collections
Create a collections tag that only you can control and mark all the collection posts. That way if someone clicks on the tag, they can view all the collection posts.
New bugs for Patches/Packs. Replaced each time we have a new major patch or pack although Kits would have their own section on this page and list the newest ones released as well.
This can make sense as its own post rather than a page in a compiled post.
General Tech Issues/Performance
CAS
Build Mode
Platform specific issues (PC, Mac, Console)
Aspirations, Emotions, Skills, Traits (Lot and Sims), ..
Careers
Base Game features like Sentiments and other thingsPack specific features like like milestones, lifestyles, etc
That's a lot to catalogue and will be a headache for someone reading the post. There are over 2000 reported bugs in the game and about 1000 are being tracked. If you only include all the tracked bugs, that's a long list. Sadly, the majority of bugs will never be fixed, and the list will always be expanding due to new pack releases or updates to the game. Also, the older the pack is, the less likely the bugs from the pack are going to get fixed.
I think rather than making a general complied list of bugs, the focus should be on immediate bugs that the player needs to know about so players don't create duplicate reports. Such as a list of bugs that are occurring from a new pack, bugs from events, or bugs that occur after an update. The list should remain fresh. For example, after the next pack comes out, the bugs from the previous pack are removed from the post, and the newest pack's bugs are added. I think that would be more helpful to players.
Thanks for your feedback.
