    Every single person with Early Access pointed this out and it's still not fixed. I cannot build using these windows. :/

      As far as I can see, the "frame" of the window is missing. It shows on the same windows for taller walls. They look fine on one side, but not the other. I'm sure they'll fix it.

      That doesn't make the game unplayable.

      Harrie used those windows in a build and not not say anything in her video. Now I have to go look at my game. What about at eye level?

      They game is still playable.

      I mean this is very sloppy on EA's side and it isn't the first issue with the new EP and patches. They really need to be more careful cause the new pack is awesome but their carelessness leaves a bad aftertaste and it's a shame.

      However the game is faaaar from unplayable!

      I get where you're coming from but the game isn't unplayable, rather playing in a build with these windows will drive you crazy to the point that all you will see is gravity defying glass. So unplayable if you force that on yourself lol
      Really is sloppy, and very frustrating if you want to use them in your build.

      One bad build item makes an entire $40 game unplayable... Right.

      The mesh is missing some faces. Someone will probably make a default replacement if EA doesn't fix it.

      Yes. It is unplayable with the current bugs which are already in discussion under bug report forum.

      Gosh, I think EA should stop using Sim players as their game QC!

      Come now, the game isn't unplayable. Bugs or not - far from it. Your personal criteria for what is worth playing despite bugs is a different matter entirely and highly subjective.

      If you can still load the game and be able to play it despite having bugs or not then the game is not unplayable.

      I agree

      Playtesting - not just tabletop games and card games any more. Really that should have been playtested in Beta and not [img]just with accounting and marketing but actual players. https://i.imgur.com/t48COW6.jpg[/img]

      Again, it's the same with every pack: someone complains about the bugs and many people say that it's not fair.

      Please, let the people express themselves. If you don't have any problem with the game it's great, I'm glad, but please have in mind that some of us think that paying 40€ for a game which had this issue in the first version only available to bloggers and it is not been fixed in the final version is not right.

      For me the game is almost unplayable because:
      - Some times my sim don't eat when commanded "get leftovers". He just take the dish and sits watching it.
      - The Eco footprint resets back to "neutral" in one day no matter what I do. Even when all lots in the world are "green"
      - Basil bush is shown as a seed, not a bush.
      - Some objects disappear sometimes in my lot.
      - Sometimes the growth state of plants changes randomly.
      - The balcony in the apartment is not part of the house and cannot be editted.
      - The eco footprint resets automatically when my sim leaves the neighbourhood/world.
      - Sometimes solar panels cannot be placed on roofs.
      - Sometimes sims cannot use the sell table in the market. You have to carry your own table in order to sell your produce.
      - There is a buzz noise that won't go away when the maker station breaks. The buzz won't go even after deleting the whole lot.

      I could go on and on with bugs I found in my game. I removed my mods, I created a new fresh sims folder, deleted temporary files, repaired the game, restarted the game and the PC but this bugs are still there.

      We paid 40€ for a game that IS unplayable for some of us, so please, let us complain.

      Agreed, but that’s not what OP is arguing here. So it’s not “unplayable “ by that. Good day to you
