    For those of you having issues with the world objects cheat, there's a bug report on AHQ here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-PC/Entering-in-the-new-cheat-does-not-unlock-anything-new/m-p/8026134/highlight/false#M146068

    Sooo, a new thing they added with a patch is bugged from the get-go? Why am I not that surprised...

    Great now people will start using these background objects in their builds and they said in the patch notes that because they’re not supposed to be used, the Sims will walk right through them. Didn’t hear them mention this in the Maxis Monthly.

    That sounds all kinds of irritating and ugly to me smh

    What? Why in the plum did they add them then :#

    Maybe they're hoping players will go "Ooo, shiny!" and forget about all the bugs.

    Dark meditation is indeed fixed, and so is the ability to influence emotions - in the way that now every vampire can do it, including my novice who hasn't even learned it yet...

    Some of the recycled new cas items (not sure that shirt is new, but did they add new swatches) ?scynvp.png

    Well that’s kind of a perk...sort of. Still lame they did this with clothes we paid for in packs.

    That top is from Backyard stuff and thankfully it's still listed that way.

    Really? Wow I was not expecting.... still not a total fix. I hope it doesn't stay that way because if it does, it's still bugged since it's suppose to be a power to choose from.

    It's weird though, the simpler things are the ones they don't fix. Still can't take screenshots with the UI on lol.

    So the influence emotions fix is just a hotfix?

    ...is it just me...or did they waste (I KNOW they are not part of the same team) all their time on the awful rebranding, and not even focus on bug fixes going "Hey hey look at this new coat of paint, we hope you will be swayed to see how broken this game is...PRAISE US!"

    That top is from Backyard Stuff, I can't see that it has any new swatches.

    For some reason the new loading screen reminds me of the BSOD :D

    Oh ok. The sneakers are from Get to Work but they're now BG with new swatches, the pants are from City Living and are also BG now with new swatches.
    I love the new hair it's good for teenagers! Some of the new swatches/clothes also fit teens. Are they aiming for a younger audience ? The rebrand sure looks more juvenile.

    It seems that way. The rebranding got more attention in the notes than the bug fixes did!

    okay so help me out here, they removed a few cas items from the packs and made them basegame and the patch notes say there are new swatches for people who bought the pack, I mean sure I see there are different swatches but it doesn't say it's a pack exclusive swatch like it does with that basegame toilet in build mode with the added Island Living swatches. Am I supposed to trust that now? xD

    I am downloading the update now! I won't be able to play today though. Hopefully this weekend I can get some quality play time in the updated CAS and new buildmode objects!

    They’re not in game like that, they appear if you enter CAS to create new sims.

    ummm WHERE ARE THE BUG FIXES!?!?! Sheesh this game omg.

    This is why I get so upset about adding stuff like Alexa and rebranding and first person etc. It is not like I hate these things. I am just so frustrated major bugs like oh I don't know something major like fixing mermaid genetics are not addressed before adding in more useless stuff. We are talking about a major feature of an expansion. We can fix how an icon looks for those who don't own the pack but not fix stuff IN the PACK...LOL Wow just wow

    Different people and teams do all of this stuff. Yes the amount of bug fixes is very disappointing but the stuff added had no effect on what was fixed and what wasn’t.

    Ugh I get that and frankly tired of hearing different people work on stuff as an excuse for the state of the game.
    The point is it is frustrating when you are waiting for things to get fixed and stuff like I mentioned are released. Different people may be working on stuff but I am sure there is an operations manager which everything is getting filtered through who makes the final release decisions. I am telling that person to make better decisions. If you know there are a bunch of bugs in the game why release something so benign.

    Wow not using it as an excuse. Just being informative because I’m tired of people saying X didn’t get fixed because this new thing was added. They don’t correlate with each other at all and have different budgets. The new additions did not cause less to be fixed. I’m not saying the amount of bugs is okay because it isn’t and I’m very sad that so little was addressed. But the new items and the rebrand did not cause less to be addressed that’s what I am pointing out. Sometimes it’s as simple as the fix wasn’t ready. As upsetting as it is now I’d rather have good fixes than bandaids that may break the game further (I am aware fixes still can do this just saying the issues added would be worse if they didn’t take a little time).

    Repeating....
    I am pretty sure there is a head person in charge that release are filtered through. I am telling that person to get it together. I doubt that random departments are just releasing without communicating.

    I was at least hoping for some fixes on all the Sulani glitches and bugs. Guess my mermaid family and stories will be on hold for another month. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    They'll be available though the sims gallery I think. They aren't suppose to be in-game.

    I didn’t know about mermaid genetics being a problem. My mermaid recently became pregnant, so I guess I’ll be putting that household on, well, hold.

    Um... that's... not how it works. That is about copyright.
