I was just wondering with the new game pack if they will release another patch. I also wonder if they release another patch will you have to have the new game pack or will anyone be able to download it if they need to. If there is a patch I hope it fixes bugs. Anyone else?

That would be good. I just like to know as every time there is a patch seems I have to re-install the game.
I had that coding issue everytime there is a new patch. I've changed my Origin language to English US rather than English UK it's suppose to fix the issue (I hope)
The language files are US and somehow conflict with Language UK causing the error. A simguru mentioned next time there is a patch change English UK to English US via Origin.
Basically what I was saying is I am having the same issue and my Origin is on English US I hope that the Guru is right for your sake.
They say we can't live there. Only go on holiday, and so long as the npc's haven't hogged all the spots. lol
We had hotels in Sims 3, too. Only they called them resorts. It was fun to own one!
I don't think we have resorts, or hotels, or anything like that this go 'round, though. It appears that you can either 1) camp, or 2) rent a house. That's pretty typical for a national forest, which this game pack seems to be trying to mimic. The really, really nice ones (like, the famous ones, like Yellowstone) might have a resort or two. Most of them just have a few campgrounds here and there, which basically are just spots of dirt where you can pitch a tent, and rental cabins scattered throughout.
There is a camping store, however. They might include a place to go to rent out a lot or cabin. So, that's basically like an outdoor hotel, right?
However, from what I understand, there's no owning anything except the gear you bring in. If a residential house is placed in Granite Falls, the game converts it to a rental unit. It stinks, I know. Just give it a few weeks -- someone will come out with a mod.
Edited for language. They censor the most random words sometimes ...
Outdoor retreat is the name of the gamepack, and it includes the world of Granite Falls which consists of 2 major neighbourhoods and a 3rd hidden one.
Granite Falls is not a separate purchase from OR.
Yep. I intend on making sure there is always something available for me there lol. To heck with them.
Thanks for clarifying that I was thinking these were two separate things. Just d u m b when it comes to this stuff, but, that's because I do not know much about it. Very hush hush!
Someone's gotta man the cash register. Unless it's a rabbithole; but there haven't been any rabbitholes in Sims 4, and after the fuss fans threw over the rabbitholes in SIms 3 I seriously doubt they'll start adding them to Sims 4, as well.
Oh, absolutely! I'm sorry, I'm just tired of this whole "Sims 3 was perfect, why is Sims 4 so crappy?" attitude that so many people had. They forget that Sims 3 had more bugs than an etymologist's lab, was about as stable as a three-legged newborn giraffe (and ran about as fast, too), and had plenty of features that people raised holy you-know-what about. I distinctly remember some pretty scathing remarks to EA along the lines of "you promised us an open world, now open up the entire world, including the rabbitholes!"
Surprisingly, I never had problems with the combo-rabbitholes. In fact, I rather liked them, because they kept the world nice and neat. However, I didn't like having to wait outside like a puppy with her leash tied around a patio chair while her owner goes grocery shopping, waiting for them to finish and come out. Especially because I usually played with tiny households (only one or maybe two sims at a time), so I was stuck twiddling my thumbs while a completely arbitrary entering-disappearing-leaving animation played out.
