This may be a crazy question, but since I returned to TS3 some weeks ago, I'm surprised how well and bug-free the game is running (even Isla Paradiso) and I'm wondering if they are still patching the packs or the store content. This came to my mind because I got multiple small notifications in Origin in the last months saying "There is a content patch for you, do you want it Y/N".
What I observed for example in IP is that I don't have deserted boats any more. They seem to be included into the 0:59 cleaning mechanism. It also seems that the game deletes self-made career outfits when the Sim is aging up - which is a good thing, because these outfits used to glitch after birthdays, causing the terrible travel bug where you ended up in Oasis Landing without a Sim.
Are these fixes new, were they introduced in the 1.69 patch or am I paranoid
?

If anything were happening to the game files or patches besides that, our mod developers (and players) would be very sensitive to it all as things would have to constantly be adjusted to compensate for the changes. This just hasn't happened.
The "content patch" is the store patch, last updated in 2013 or something like that. It always was constantly offered to many players who already had it, that's just a small glitch in the detection mechanism. I'm surprised that 1.69 even concerns itself with that, I thought it was all rolled into one update now and the small store item fixes it provides were done automatically.
Is it possible that your computer is performing better overall than it might have been in the past?

My experience with patch 1.69 wasn't the worst but in the end I purchased any missing physical copies to replace my digital collection so I could go back to patch 1.67. I don't regret it and as you can see by my signature, I'm quite proud of my collection.
