    We all know we have a Big Pre EP Patch coming in Late June so it's time to start speculating.

    Confirmed to be coming so far

    350 color swatches base game only (Doors Only)


    Update June 15th

    Teen Part Time Jobs that Adults can now do

    Lounge Chairs

    Fix to fan to make blades go in opposite direction and possibly cool sims

    32 bit legacy update postponed

    Off The Grid Lot Trait

    Clothing Optional Lot Trait

    Fishing Overhaul

    Ceiling Decor Catagory

    Trait Randomizer

    LBGT Stuff

    Possibly being added to base game for pools
    Kiss In Water Interaction

    There's going to be a fishing overhaul? What are the changes?

    I think it was mentioned somewhere that they added more fishing spots in the other worlds

    Do we know if an adult Sim can hold a part time job AND a full time job if they do not conflict? IIRC, there are a number of base game part time jobs that are JUST on weekdays and at least one part time job thats only on weekends. Fairly sure there are plenty of options to not have them conflict. Also, the freelance career is completely work from home so no matter what, you will not need to have a set schedule. There's also work from home jobs, but they have a schedule even if you stay home that day. I feel like being a freelancer with a part time job is realistic, as is having a lower-level full time job and part time job

    I feel like this is difficult to arrange, because the hours for full time jobs are volatile. If your sim gets promoted in the full time job and their new hours conflict with their part-time job, you'd be forced to choose

    Fair point. But that too is fairly realistic. I mean, most of the reason people would work 2 jobs is money. So with a promotion and/or raise, a person may choose to quit that part time job because the promotion/raise (along with any other perks that comes with) has helped.

    Hm, that's true. Maybe if it's not currently possible, they might consider it in the future

    Why do you say that? You have to download this patch if you want to keep playing your game.

    Not if you’re willing to use Origin’s offline mode. No gallery, but it’s not that bad.

    Yeah, but you can’t get any of the upcoming packs without the patch right?

    Nope, it would need to update to the current patch,
    @catloverplayer thanks for the correction, I thought it was earlier.

    Does anyone know when the patch hits in Europe? Worldwide launch (so 1PM EST = 19:00 CEST) or staggered as with IL?

    I've been playing offline for a couple of months now.
    Just today I deleted my mods and updated to the April patch.
    I do this often, which means I don't get content and bug fixes straight away, but also means I can continue to play with my mods intact, which I prefer.

    Just a heads-up for those that play with mods/cc that @luthienrising has started her awesome 'Broken/Updated Mods & CC' thread here for post-patch issues:

    I might be wrong but I think they mean it isn't there yet. But as you stated, that's because it's too early :D

    Off the Grid trait? Now I know why those useful off the grid objects I have noticed being gradually added in all the packs were for and Island Living has the lot for it too. It'll be useful in Brindleton Bay and Windenburg in those secluded lots and Seasons will help too.

    Thinks.....What if I make Newcrest an apocalypse world with all lots Off the Grid, maybe with bunkers all over.......

    Surprised it wasn't in from the beginning. Not enough Lesbian programmers team? I have no idea what most of the flags relate to other than the rainbow one and one looking like a uk Suffragette one though. How about flags of the world as well?
  • AquaGamer1212AquaGamer1212 Posts: 5,417 Member
    So don’t know if anyone revealed this or not but I just found out that the 350 swatches are just for the DOORS! Nothing else...just doors 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ REALLY?!

    Glad to hear! Kinda surprised they actually got the lesbian flags in time since Grant said that it was unlikely that it’d make it in time for the patch.
