After the last expansion I'm done with this franchise, well that and they completely ruined playing vampires. Seeing Star Wars in The Sims definitely tells me I made the right choice. It also tells me they've run out of ideas.
Bills are ridiculously low. There's zero challenge in the game now. I can plant a rose garden and live in a mansion from selling roses every day. It's absurd and unbelievable they haven't patched this yet.
With all the current issues in the game at…
At least with clubs you can leave a club or make a club exactly the way you want it. It's easy to work with. With NAP's I tried voting against and repealing them with no luck. My only option was to completely turn off (uncheck both boxes) in the set…
Fix the Vampires too. Since Eco Lifestyle they no longer seem to send out those late night invites to turn my sims into vampires. Another Vampire nerf. :(
I hope this wasn't done intentionally.
The fact that they reused animations is what really troubles me. They couldn't be bothered to make new animations for the *nice environment*. There are modders literally making new animations for this game every day, but Maxis can't be bothered maki…
I did that. It really helped, thanks. I'm still not happy with the expansion though. It basically turned the game into a 3rd world country. Power outages, garbage piling up everywhere, bums digging through the trash and basically our Sims are just m…
If anyone knows of a mod to completely shut down the "neighborhood action plan nonsense I'd really like to know. I had my doubts about it(Eco Lifestyle), but like a doofus bought it because of the sale today. Am now deeply regretting it. It's b…
More to add - The game is straight up broken right now. There are so many things wrong: gardening, pointless animation behavior, magic musical instruments, cooking/baking when not even hungry, cleaning up is impossible after a house party; my sims p…
I think the random pulling out a musical instrument and playing is possible the worst idea ever. The Sims I saw doing it, I checked. No music skills, no musical aspirations. They didn't even have an instrument in their inventory. Why are they doing …
Yes, it is extremely annoying. As if the dumpster diving hippie edition wasn't enough... They've pretty much ruined this game for me. I'll try the mod to see if it helps. Thanks.
Edit: That mod fixed the game! Thank you :)
Not yet. I wanted to first find out if others were experiencing this as well. If it's just me and it's a fluke bug in my game, they probably won't do much about it, but if there are many others I definitely will.
Yes, for about 5 years now and they've never done that unless it was accompanied with an inspired moodlet. Artists, Chefs, anything creative usually get the moodlet. However, ever since eco life it's just been random and 4-5 times a day with no asso…
Good to hear. That also solves the drinking water bug. If you ever get a sim that constantly drinks water just play another household for a few minutes. It's worked for me every time I've encountered it.
It would be a nice update. My sims usually have small farms. Although, LittleMsSam has a gardening mod with autonomous fertilizing if that helps.
What would really be nice is if they would make a fertilizer sprayer you could purchase. Something lik…
I'd like to see more aspirations as well. I'm kind of surprised there's no wellness aspiration. There's certainly enough in game content to make one. I'd also like to see the aspiration system reworked to where our sims develop an aspiration based o…
Haha. Yeah, but this really needed to be added. I've had house fires that would not go out and were going on for many in-game hours. I'd have to reload from a last save.
I haven't updated yet, but I have a suggestion. Try making a new sim in a new home and playing it for a few minutes. Save your game, then try going back to the previous family. I had a similar problem and doing this solved it.
Just made a new sim and the following morning Vlad decides to pay a visit around 8AM for some odd reason. My Sim was still sleeping and as you can see, well Vlad didn't make it. Sad day for all the Evil Sims in the world. Not mine though he's a good…
This will be the first pack that I'm not buying. My sims already pick up enough garbage when they visit any public venue. I really don't want an entire expansion based on it. So, a big no from me.
Could be placement of the bookshelf maybe? I've noticed if I put a television too close to the kitchen near the oven the sims will often stop in the middle of preparing food to go watch TV. Also happens if you put a garden too close to an oven. Had …
