📌 I'm starting a thread to figure out just how buggy my game actually is. I will contribute to this as I encounter bugs during gameplay.

Starting off with the classic, disappearing world objects in Evergreen Harbor when you enter build mode via manage worlds!

So it's not just for rotational players. Also the presets don't get saved automatically. I don't really mind this but I appreciate the heads up because the game did not warn me beforehand and I didn't know how or why it got deleted.

I didn't find this clikbaity tbh, it's important info if, like me, you jump into manage worlds to edit sims outside of your household a lot. It happened to me without a warning because I loaded the save into manage worlds and entered CAS to edit other sims before continuing to play my main.

They figured out bad UX means fewer bug reports means they don't have to fix the game lol

That's rough. I have Dori C6, I know the pain 😩 At least you have guaranteed now and might get him early!

There's a much bigger issue with the pack that's not getting enough attention. I would love to see SC write about how EA is silencing players on the Forums who are reporting this advertised feature as missing!

dashi @dashisims.bsky.social · 1d

It's so frustrating how reports for the missing Supervised Customer bug keep getting moved to Feedback. People literally have to resort to showing proof that it was advertised as a feature to be taken seriously 🤨

I'm so sorry they moved your post to feedback too. I was so excited to see it in bug reports, thinking surely they will allow it since you showed proof of it being advertised but no 💔

dashi @dashisims.bsky.social · 1d

It's crazy. I don't think we've ever had a false advertising situation as bad as this and yet I don't see any big channels reporting on it. I don't think we'll get anywhere on the Forums when the reports are being censored.

dashi @dashisims.bsky.social · 1d

Yeah the mods keep removing all the bug reports about this and moving the original posts into the Feedback section. You can still like comments in that thread though.

dashi @dashisims.bsky.social · 1d

That'd still be the better scenario and I hope that is the reason why they keep deleting the bug reports and that it's not some internal directive to quietly sweep this under the rug because they couldn't get it to work in time for the release and have no intention of patching it in 🥲

dashi @dashisims.bsky.social · 1d

And I just saw the link I posted earlier was also moved from bug reports to feedback. People keep pointing out that they advertised it in multiple places, even in a recent tiktok, and yet all the bug reports get swept under the rug without an explanation. Make it make sense

What a lovely wedding with cake cutting and guests watching the full ceremony and then clapping, no autonomous pushups and no overcomplicated micromanaging system, no to-do list to check off, no simulation lag and no continuous action queue dropping 😌

Mr. and Mrs. Dreamer, everyone 👏😎🖤✨

I'm playing the sims on windows now, never had issues on Mac with the EA App, can someone please help? I don't know what to do, I've cleared caché and reistalled EA App. I tried to repair the game but for some reason it says I have to do something with Steam even though I don't have the game there.

It varies on a per-save basis but I have a tendency to abandon saves that have aging on (regardless of lifespan).

dashi @dashisims.bsky.social · 3d

First impressions after playing all weekend: This pack definitely feels like an Expansion Pack and I think the Getaway/CV system will be foundational. It is micro-managey, yes, but it is rewarding once you set it up. The world is 10/10. There's so much gameplay for kids! I really love it so far.

dashi @dashisims.bsky.social · 4d

This is hands down the most beautiful world we've ever got 🥹 It's so detailed with lots of gameplay objects scattered around. The open water areas are huge. I just wish they gave us the group hiking feature from SE, it would have been perfect here!

Is this for real ?
I haven’t tested getaway and custom venue yet but I hope it is considered as bug…

That explains why my sim was suddenly not on her getaway anymore when I quickly switched to and back from another household. Luckily I was just testing things. I hope this is just a bug and can be patched.
