    I saw split level foundation where the pool was. Do you think split level foundation will finally be patched in?

    That is a cute SP. I am glad the birds are finially showing up. I have always wanted a small set of them, even as a object, to set in front of the bird baths and bird houses.

    I really like the way a lot of the furniture matches the Movie SP really well! Plus, having a slip-and-slide is going to be great for my poorer sims who don't have pools. :D But still super hyped for all that CAS content, mostly.

    Lots of new plants, yay! I like the bird feeder, house, all of it, really. And the slide is cool, if there is room on my lot for it.... I especially like everyone can do it and not just kids.

    Now this is what stuff packs should be. I own every single pack TS4 has released, but Kids Room is by far my favorite stuff pack and now this... I have a feeling Backyard will become my second favorite of the packs. Hey, I'd be perfectly fine and 100% in support for as many stuff packs they want to release if stuff packs began to actually have a lot of use. And we know their working on animal animations... At least we're going to have other life in the game, even if we can't own birds at the moment. Oh, and I absolutely adore the lawn ornaments. Thank goodness that these stuff packs are falling on paydays.

    I was also disappointed about the initial release, but seeing the trailer, it looks a lot of fun! I love the waterslide!

    I was way more excited by it then I was expecting to be! I honestly think this is the most excited I've been for an SP!

    I really hope that Sim's will use the slide autonomously because I really want to set up a few on a public pool/park lot to be able to watch random townies attempt to use it <3

    They even put animation to the jug when sims are sipping from it. I don't think there is one with the ice cream and the popcorn maker..

    There was no split level foundation/platform in the trailer.

    Actually, I was relieved that the children could use it. I like the touch with the soap bubbles. I thought I might take a pass on this, but now I want that bird feeder.

    It'd be pretty cool if we can 'collect' birds. Each bird we discover goes into the collection screen. If not, it still looks cool either way.

    The food/drink fountain has something similar when you fill it in.

    Are you serious? Thank goodness I've sworn not to buy else anything until we see a hint of another EP. I was hoping for some backyard playground stuff. Oh well, it will appeal to some and not to others. For those who like it, enjoy and please respect those whose opinions differ from yours, we have a right to like or not like whatever we want.

    Aye, the water slide looks cool and all, but I'd rather have seen a standard swing and/or slide - something that my sim kids would use a lot. A swing would also have longevity if sims could sit and talk on it or kids could hang out on it.

    I like the idea of wind chime and bird house. The rest just feels like more party stuff to me, lol.

    I think she was talking about the extension of the patio/foundation. I could totally see where the misconception came from though.

    Well I guess Sims 4 does have some hope to it.

    Let this be a lesson to not judge a pack before it's release like so many summers here have. Referring to the people who stated as fact this was perfect patio 2.0 from just knowing the title.

    It is Perfect Patio 2.0.

    But honestly the last thing I was expecting was the bird feeder.

    I guess Pool Party Stuff is still ought to happen lol

    For everyone who hates on this pack. I want to remind you that his is the first stuff pack with three!! gameplay objects. The water slides, the bird feeder and the drink pitcher. 4 if you count the wind chime which has also new animations.
