The *new patch every month* cycle has officially been broken! We will not be getting a patch this month per SimGuruKate:
“Hello SimFam! Just a quick update that we will not be releasing a patch/update this month as we are focused on some really fun free stuff for October (assuming no last minute issues arise) and a future release for this calendar year. Stay tuned...”
They’ve released small patches before so to entirely skip one has me concerned. When was the last time this even happened?

This reminds me I still haven’t used Patchy from Seasons yet lol. I’m not sure what else the game even needs for Halloween at this time.
Yep gotta squash them asap before they get buried by new content.
Why would they add that in for free? We have Spooky Stuff that is literally dedicated to Halloween. If anything it'll be an update to the Holiday pack, and since lately they've been wanting to be representative to all kinds of simmers, it could be either Muslim-related or similar.
If not holiday-related, they could still even bring hijabs officially into the game, or even kippahs. OR, probably the whole disability thing that has been the prevailing community subject lately (apart from ZOMG Sims 5).
I trust them.
Yes, this decision is astonishing. There are still lots of nasty bugs to fix.
Well be brave for both of us cause I for one am skurred

No tears will be shed from me if/when they finally go.
I don't know ... For me Simguru Graham's Stuff Pack era was one of the best things in TS4. A brilliant SP like Kids Room or Laundry adds more fun to the game than a shallow EP like Get Together.
Why are you skurred? 🤔

Yes, I agree there were some great stuff packs that I enjoyed out of it, but then came the bad ones, and as much as I'd like to believe it, in the end the bad ones overshadowed the good ones. MFP stuff could have very well been the straw that broke the camel's back for sure, or at least severely detract the team from making new stuff packs going forward anytime soon. I know I wouldn't want to try again with stuff packs after drawing the ire of the community with the last one.
I know my opinion is not popular, but the "ire" about MFP was completely overdone. In fact this is a rather good pack and I use the hamster and the kids room furniture all the time.
Sounds like a really empty last half of the year to be honest.
We only had 4 packs this year so far. I guess SPs are really gone.
About breaking the one patch every month tradition, I do not understand why this decision was made, surely they have at least a couple of bug fixes ready to go. Why not release just a small patch with a couple of bug fixes?

Probably because that people would then complain of how small the patch was?
I dislike change. I'm used to a patch every month and they're changing up on me.
You know what... that is the one positive of not having a patch: you don't have to go through your mods to figure out which ones are broken.
We had small patches in the past. There are many bugs at the moment and we recently got a patch full of free content anyways, people don't expect (or shouldn't) big patches every month.
I'm not sure why people would complain more for having a small patch that fixes game issues than for not having any patch at all.
