thx! 

 

SO disappointed in this & the last expansions!

Seems like communist living!

 

Tiny living wants me to live in a closet & the new eco one wants me to eat bugs! no thanx!

anyone who loves freedom should pass on these packs! I am.

I hear you...I have bought every Sims 4 pack so far. But this, this is the real world seeping into our game...politics we never asked for...conditioning and brainwashing we never wanted. This expansion isn't fun and it doesn't belong in our game. 

[Edit] We're all being told to wear face masks, socially isolate, stand two metres apart, follow one way systems around supermarkets...we're no better than lab rats being conditioned and indoctrinated. It's like living in communist China. And now our game, our escape from this miserable reality is preaching the joy of being poor...the joy of recycling and regulating our energy needs, monitoring how much water we use. THIS IS A GAME. It's meant to be fun not a mirror image of shit society.

I agree with ya somewhat but this is the Sims and is defined as a "Life Simulation Game".

Just another reason why the earlier Sims games were better... life was also better back then.

 

Might be better if EA changed the theme to a Fantasy Game and went in another direction.

then fucking move to China and tell me, if life over there is the same.

 

This is a game, you are right. And nobody forces you to play it or how to play it.

The Sims is and was a game, intended in first place for children. So, tell me, is it bad to "teach" children to care for the environment? Or to tell them, that you don't need a huge house to live a happy life (Tiny Living EP)? Or that you don't need to feel like a female, just because you look like one?

Just because you don't like parts of the game, doesn't make it a bad game at all. If you are not happy with it, just don't play it or invent a game that suits your personal understanding of a "perfect life simulator".
 

and btw, even if I did the same, this is not a thread to complain about which EP is good or bad and why...
this was a thread to tell people, that mods will break after update - nothing more, nothing less

but I think, since creating CC eyes is done always the same way, all CC eyes should be broken?!

I don't have any cc eye problems but also don't use any default replacements.

 

All my cc eyes are non-default contacts in CAS makeup, just an FYI if you need a workaround.

But you probably already know this anyway so...

Has This Patch Broken All CC Or Just Certain Types & Groups , Also Do Prior Game Saves Still Work ?

Default replacement eyes is the only CC I've heard about breaking.

 

EA released an emergency patch for the patch, so existing saves should work fine.

 

I'm still waiting to update because a few mods I use need S4S to update before they can even start work on theirs.

Any new good or bad news?  I still haven't updated anything.

The biggest bug I've seen so far is kids not being able to properly gain adult skills in stuff like piano, singing, logic, video games, etc. like they used to. Kids that were born or aged up to child after the patch can get some, but not all. It's hit or miss depending on what you try to skill up first. But there's a mod for that on MTS that seems to work around all this okay.

 

Beware of the Eco Lifestyle upgrades! Do NOT insta-upgrade your toilets! There's a composting "feature" that will cause fires if you don't also install a bug farm to handle the compost. Three of my sims had the toilet go FWOOSH! on them when they were changing tampons. I'm blaming LittleMsSam for that one because the upgrade happened while I wasn't looking thanks to her autonomous upgrade when focused mod. :P

The bug occurs on standard upgrades too (compost), not just the instant ones. My sim had level 3 handiness and I let her take her time installing the compost upgrade. She used the toilet just fine, but when her mom went afterwards... she's no longer with us. I don't know if it makes a difference but it was a toilet from the Eco pack.

I just meant don't do the insta-upgrade, because it doesn't give you a choice whether or not to install the composting. With regular upgrades (that aren't autonomous), you can skip that one.

 

And composting toilets going FWOOSH!! is not a bug, it's a feature. :D

I've been pretending it's Eco-terrorists at work.? Enough "Green". Support the "Industrial" sector ...and WooHoo. Definitely support WooHoo.?

Well there are still some bugs but seem to vary with different users.

Some bugs are from the patch and some are from the ECO EP.

More info here in case you haven't seen it yet... (they don't allow any adult NSFW stuff mentioned)
