Is it just me or has the last few patches been horrible?
The such small amount of bugs addressed...
I am disappointed in you sims team.
FIX YOUR GAME!
Since Eco Living patches have BEEN so DANG small..
PC: 1.65.77.1020 / Mac: 1.65.77.1220
Console: Version 1.30
Spark'd Season One has come to an end, Spark'd Wedding Destination Challenge submissions have closed and you have picked your favorites, and we released the community voted pack - Nifty Knitting. Now we find ourselves here with a small update to tackle some issues including those that you reported to us after Nifty Knitting released.

Now onto the fixes:
Sims 4
We have once again vanquished yet another villainous version of Error Code 134. This time it is Error Code 134:64b8a94a, distant cousin of the original Error Code 134.What is Error 134? Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me... no more.
Fixed an issue related to curvature points on Roofs. They should work better now.
Controller layout screens have been updated to reflect the additional controls used in the Spark’d Challenges tabs in The Gallery. So many buttons, so much to see and do.
Fixed an issue that generated an error message when submitting an item to Spark’d Challenges from Player’s catalog.
Cats & Dogs
Retrained our good Doggos and Cattos so that they can eat also not on command. So they will no longer eat only when they are told. Give them all the treats anyway - they are such good bois and girls!
Eco Lifestyle
Fixed an issue where NPC Sims would continuously steal objects from Lots without having the Kleptomaniac Trait. They were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.
Fixed an issue in ‘Green’ Lots that did not allow Aurora Borealis and other phenomena to display. I’m glad we fixed this, now enjoy what nature has to offer.
Dine Out
Fixed an issue that made some drinks and food options be duplicated, or go missing, on restaurants’ menus. I’m all for more of everything, but this seemed a bit extreme, though double coffees… mmm coffee...
Nifty Knitting
Fixed an issue that prevented PlayStation 4 and macOS players from applying the unlockbytag SP17 successfully. All the knits belong to you.
Sims will no longer constantly knit autonomously. Ok now, we know knitting is wonderful, but there IS a thing like too much knitting. distant chants of ‘That’s right!’
Xbox One
If you subscribe to EA Access you may notice the logo displayed on the pack information screens is now displayed as EA Play as part of a rebrand of EA’s subscription.

Me too..
This team tries there best to treat us like children and use humor that isn't funny.
Wish they STOP.

I truly thought this after eco living's patch "surely they are making a bigger one next" next patch still small..and again. yyyeeeah.
If they are gonna continue with this..
Might as well just move on to TS5 ...
> I really dislike the attempts at humour in the patch notes, it's always rubbed me the wrong way. Constant technical issues stopped being funny about ten years ago.
I understand that its meant to bring some life to patch notes which are normally very boring, but when the game is as buggy as this one has been for so long it just comes across as flippant.

Maybe they're trying to figure out a fix.
Or maybe they haven't been made aware of the issue.
Or maybe they can't replicate the issue.
2020 has been a terrible year for TS4...lol to think they said "2020 will be the best year for TS4 ever."
Eco should of never been a pack or voted on to begin with. The only pack I have ever regretted owning.
It took me 15 minutes reading about ECO on the forum to discover what's broken, and decide not to purchase until they fix it, I don't think the issues are that hard to figure out.
Yeah I don't buy that at all. They have had MUCH feedback on both forums and twitter of the bugs.
Seems they are still doing the bare minimum..
Or....the game's core is so broken they can't fix it. If that's the case, drop it like a hot potato count your losses listen to the feedback from it and work on TS5 a much better game.
It upsets me to say this but I agree it’s been such a bad year. For me personally the only good things have been the stuff packs which suits my gameplay style but I know for a lot of simmers it’s been bad. I’ve played this game since it first came out and I’ve never known it be as bad as this year. The 20th anniversary was diabolical and eco lifestyle is the worst ep I’ve ever known. I’m a simmer who will keep an open mind and appreciate if something is good but not my gameplay style (usually supernatural and gameplay stuff) but this year has been so underwhelming.
Sadly true.
Simvasion pretty much solved a lot of the ECO lifestyle bugs with his mod and he posted about it on Answer HQ... So...did they add those changes or not? Because I can't tell what "Fixed an issue where NPC Sims would continuously steal objects from Lots without having the Kleptomaniac Trait." is even supposed to mean. Wasn't the issue that they stole things like sinks and tables from community lots when sharing is caring was active in any neighborhood?
@simvasion sorry for tagging you but...did they look at your mod at all?
