    I swear if this is THE March patch...

    If no more free content patches are deployed at all after this then I'm sorry but I'm done...

    For once I'm gonna defend Maxis and say that they were probably too preoccupied with finishing up GTW to add anything significant to this month's update. I guess it's just our fault for getting our hopes up too high.

    I'm still disappointed at the lack of bug fixes though.
    I agree with this. As for all the bugs people say they have, I have no clue. >.> Never had any of them that I've read about.

    I look forward to the next patch and expansion.

    I won't go so far as to say your statement is false because I don't have your specific game, but it is highly unlikely. You were probably just lucky enough not to notice any of them.

    On a side note, how do some people have this patch already? I just booted up Origin and there were no updates.

    I've opened up my game and there was no patch. I then went to patch release part of the forums and no patch notes there either?

    Patch notes sometimes come late. But to be honest I feel like the patch is just so small that the Gurus won't even bother to post the notes like in an older update.

    Mine won't either. I'm not booting Origin again until I'm sure it's out. Don't want the darn thing spying on me.

    Lol I put duct tape on my web cam everytime I do. It might sound a little crazy but oh well :#

    I stick a bandaid over mine, lol.

    This crashes&9xnVidia hotfix is not available on Origin (PC) yet.
    I'm not disappointed. Did expect more stuff addressed, but IMO crashes should always be a priority.

    They have not promised to give important new content on EVERY patch. Some stuff takes longer to make, and some bugs take longer to fix. They do say this is a "small update". With GTW having kept them them busy until now, there'll probably be a bigger patch right when it's released.

    The Woohoo gnome is in this one, the hair will be added later.

    I completely agree with you. The way some people talk, I don't think they'd be happy if EA gave everything away each month. They'd just come up with more they want.

    The woohoo blog did say that the hair was going to be added some time after this patch.

    The patch notes shown further up in this post had a UK id, but North America doesn't seem to be updated yet.

    I wasn't expecting anything major like toddlers or story progression. I learned a long time ago never to get my hopes up too high with EA. They manage to hype a large majority of fans and when it gets closer and closer to the release date they start peeling the layers of what the new shiny thing really is. Then you're left with whatever they didn't peel off.

    I never thought of that guess I'll be using those when my duct tape runs out.

    they posted notes for the January 22 micropatch. Well sort of. They didn't actually explain what that one was for just that it happened.

    Nothing to see. I don't even care about the forums.

    I don't want to raise hopes but I just saw this on Twitter: https://twitter.com/thesims/lists/simgurus BASEMENTS!?

    Here I am reading the notes, happy they addressed the issue where browsing the gallery, crashes my game and this gem pops up:

    "If you launched the game in fullscreen and then exit fullscreen, the yellow minimize button was disappearing upon exiting fullscreen. As a side note, if you are aware of the official name for the “yellow minimize button,” that would be great, because our bug report referred to it as “the yellow minimize button in the top left of the window” and I have to wonder if it has a simpler name, like the minimize button or maybe they just call it Bob. Click on Bob to minimize. Did you click Bob? Have you seen Bob? He minimizes things for you. Takes away your cares, shrinks them away… Bob."


    LMAO!

    With GTW adding in basements I hope that's the case. I remember some features of an EP gets added on to the base game via an update like stages in LN or building on water with IP.

    I wonder if that infinite loading fix will fix the issue I was having last time I played with the Rattlesnake bar?....

    I wasn't expecting much (I kind of hoped for toddlers, but didn't everyone?), I know bug fixes are a priority, but they could of gave us a little bit more than a hat...
