They've already been roasted for extending the deadline. Entire franchises have died because of pushing out release dates. What they should have done is not announce it. Their transparency is actually what's screwing them over. Their plans that commit them to deadlines months in advance... while yes, ideally you'd want something nearly finished for the market months in advance but it doesn't always work that way.

I don’t follow the sims on social media very closely, so when I bought the pack I’d heard here and there that some issues were present but I wasn’t sure what. My engagement dinner, Bach party, and rehearsal dinner went off without a hitch, so I thought “oh maybe they patched the bugs.” Then I got to the wedding. The ENTIRE thing was so broken. I tried resetting my sims. Nope. Turned autonomy off. Nope. It took two in game days JUST to get my bride and groom to say their vows, none of my wedding party did their walk, the officiant peed himself, ON A LOT WITH THREE ACCESSIBLE BATHROOMS and was broken from that point forward, and I got so upset that I ended the event once I got them to say their vows because nothing else worked. At all.

The worst part for me is that if you buy this dlc, it overrides the base game weddings and replaces them with this broken mess(which says a lot considering how much of a mess BG weddings are). I was tempted to buy this one day HEAVILY discounted as the world is very nice(the clothes looked meh but I think I'm just spoiled by how good cc is lol), but I really don't want the broken weddings forever and being forced to use the elope function just so I can avoid this headache. If only world packs from sims 3 were still a thing. Oh well.

I'm the same way, I haven't bought a single sims 4 pack at full price except for the base game (and my grandma bought me that at Walmart back in 2015, but that even came with luxury party stuff for free). All the packs I buy have been minimum 25% off, so if you just wait a while and find it discounted then it'll be worth it to some extent.

Not that im saying that it wont but it will take a while before EA decides to do something if it involves money being taken away from them.

Alot of the bugs have been fixed, but I remember a massive one from years ago, (idk if it still happens now) which was the Cats and Dog vet glitch where you couldn't bill the owner and that used to make me so upset because I'd be spending all of my sim's money on the clinic and the supplies and then I just couldn't bill the owner! they really need to go back and fix all the bugs so our money isn't wasted because it's actually so infuriating about us getting scammed and ripped for our money to buy a pack that doesn't work.

I tried to have a wedding and all the guests just disappeared before they could even get to their seats, and then the bride t-posed for the remainder of the ceremony. After the hastily ended wedding, my married couple still were able to ask people to be their whatever for the ceremony. Usually when people are like, oh this pack is really buggy, my game works fine, but holy shit this was so bad. SOOOOO BAD. And it's just so shallow. The parties are the same thing with a different name, there are no non-positive interactions, no drama, etc. It's just empty, hollow, dead. Unbelievably disappointing especially because they just keep pumping out those godawful kits.

At this point they don’t need to « fix the gameplay » they MUST re-do the whole way of getting married. Like I would prefer clicking on the aisle and a button « start the wedding » AND you just watch it because it’s actully a chore to make sure people sit then making the girl/boy throw the flowers then make the married couple walk (and they don’t even stand under the arch SMHH)….PLEASE JUST MAKE animation that would be simple. THANKS (I think we should boycott the pack because the way they remain silent is making me so mad, like just listen to the community)

That's part of one of the biggest problems I have with Sims 4 atm. The gameplay is either absolute micro management, or no management at all and the player doesn't get to decide what they want. You can't control pets and have to live with them doing what they want, but you absolutely have to control every second of your wedding by yourself. I wish there was an option to decide on how much you want to micro manage yourself. Just give us a switch that says "automatic weddings on/off" and let us decide if we want to click everything ourselves, or if we want to sit back and enjoy. They could have at least let the base game weddings in.

@@tin4258 Yeah that’s the idea, personnally I was thinking more like an animation but we, as players are not totally passive. For example we’ll click on the aisle to start the wedding then the WHOLE animation of getting married actuates (so the guests sit, the priest if there’s one is already set up, the kid throw flowers, the couple walk down the aisle, the the kid bring the rings…) BUT throughout the animation we get regular options (should XXX say I do? Yes or No) you know that would be perfect, at least for me.

I really wanted the option to organise the wedding and relax a little once it actually started Like you can select the events that you want (spousal kiss, cutting the cake etc) but you still have to manage it yourself It'd be so much better if you could select the order then get pop up options like when your sim is at work, I.e "Your sim is about to say their vows, but the stress is making their brain go fuzzy! Do they try and do it from memory or ask a best sim to help them out?" Then when you select a choice it plays a fitting animation Plus I feel like there's no real impact with their traits and relationships. What if two members of the wedding party hate each other? Do clumsy sims fail at their first dance? What about envious sims interrupting the wedding? I'm so tired of this pack already

EA have a history of releasing buggy games. Even their top performer FIFA which gets a new game every year, is the exact same buggy mess as its always been. They don't care because people will keep adding to the pile of billions they already have regardless of if they release functioning games or not. Ultimately its not the players they care about, its the shareholders. All they need to do now (with how much money they have) is churn out games so that it looks like they are doing something so the shareholders are happy. Even if noone bought this pack, it would not change anything in how they go about things because at this point they are rich enough not to care. If they cared then they wouldn't buy up game studios and then fire all the experienced employees to replace with interns (often who don't get paid until they pass the probationary period and after that they get paid a pittance). If they cared they'd give the game designers the appropriate amount of time and funding to do a good job on the game they're working on. They don't. They set a release date that will appeal to the shareholders and then they will release on that date if at all possible regardless of how finished the game is. I've heard from bug testers who used to work for EA that they even have a special terms for these kinds of bugs they're called "known shipable" as in they know its a bug, but they are happy for the game to be released with the bugs intact. So the bug fixers aren't actually allowed to spend time on fixing those bugs. They're only allowed to prioritise bugs which cause the game to crash and save files to corrupt and even then only if they happen repeatedly and consistently enough to warrant fixing them. Its such a shame because they used to be a great game publisher back in the day. They'd publish games by small companies and stuff. I miss the days of Maxis making the Sims before EA bought them outright and then fired everyone.

Kinda reminds me of Game Freak/Pokémon. The games are extremely nostalgic and built a solid fandom in the early days. But now the games released are lacklustre, rushed, continuously have less features and more “packs” to buy to get them all back and no matter how much genuine constructive criticism fans give - they’re just blatantly ignored. The thing is, EA knows that if they release any “Sims” content at all, it’s going to sell no matter what. They already have a dedicated and loyal fan base for the game. They’ve also put out a lot of objectively bad content before and that hasn’t discouraged their fan base from buying more content yet so they’re probably not overly worried about quality. Because somehow we all acknowledge EA’s quality problem, but it doesn’t reflect in purchases. It really is all about profit with the least amount of effort. It’s definitely frustrating knowing the quality of games they have the resources to make, and how truly good a sims game could be if they put effort in, but the fans don’t really demand that of them. (I’m speaking for myself here too, I’m also guilty). Sure, there are reviews like this and people do complain - but the demands that would change them are made with our wallets and we rarely if ever don’t pull our wallets out even if we can predict something won’t be up to standard. It’s like purposely going to restaurant that’s well-known and expensive but serves mediocre food. You know from experience that the food isn’t going to be that good, but you still eat it all anyway. And go back again and again and again.

Here's my pitch for how the ceremonies themselves could potentially, actually work with the features they clearly designed this pack with: - Have all the micro-managing of how the ceremony is supposed to go be done in the planning menu. Don't just set up a group of activities you have to check off by play during the ceremony, but an in-order, start-to-finish list of exactly what's going to happen (guests sit > officiant walk down aisle > flower pal walk down aisle > couple walk together down aisle > etc) - Have all the wedding arches/aisles have the same kind of footprints that teacher yoga mats do (these work really well and I've never had sims try to join a yoga class by using a yoga mat in another part of the spa/gym) all chairs for the wedding should be placed within the footprint and if you don't have enough chairs for all the guests they should stand around the perimeter to the footprint to the best of their abilities (like Kayla says they're sims, I'm not expecting much) - The ceremony should be a single click interaction "Have ceremony" (There doesn't need to be options like "..with officiant" because you set up everything in the planning menu). The sims run through the actions as you put them in your list and the game knows when the ceremony portion is over and everyone can get up a chat/do weird sim things because the list you set is done. - You can then do other wedding things that aren't a part of the actual ceremony (take pictures, toss the bouquet, etc) - End the wedding event whenever you want (totally agree it's a great change to have it no longer be a timed event, weddings do take all day) Btw this is not me saying that the pack couldn't work better/at all, if the team had been given the time they needed, without a system like this. I just think Kayla is right about the inherit problems of sims misbehaving and being chaotic making this level of detail and control unworkable with the current way you run groups. The group dancing works great! Yoga classes work great! You don't need personality during a wedding ceremony (other than the great reactions they have while sitting nicely during the vows), that's not really what weddings are about.

This is why I haven't bought this one even though I love the idea of it. I'm making it a rule from now on to only buy them on sale and I think others should follow suit regardless of how excited you are. They need to learn that what they're putting out is not acceptable. if people stop buying completely, there's a chance ea might see the game as "no longer marketable" and scrap it, however, buying a game on sale shows there's still a market for the game, people just aren't willing to pay full price for it, as its a shoddy product that's not worth the price. Hopefully in doing this, that would push someone at ea to be like, "okay, people want this, we just need to improve the quality of life so that people want to buy it full price on day one again". I know its opinion, and that opinion depends on person to person, but in my opinion the packs are overpriced anyway, and then they try and get the same coin for a broken pack?. It's so shameless that the industry is like this now and i say industry as its not just EA this problem spans across multiple companies.

For anyone, like me, that's HIGHLY considering disabling this pack JUST to have the old wedding system back after trying it once and nearly throwing your game out the window, James Turner's website has a section for how to do it. (Also for anyone wondering how to reenable it later if you so desire, I looked it up and all you have to do is remove the command you put in via the way you put it in in James' instructions on his website) (EDIT) just tried it, works great and brings back the old wedding system. EASILY reenabled the same way you disabled it except you just backspace the command and hit save. When you get on the main screen where you select a save, if you've disabled the pack, it will tell you that you "need" it installed or your game may become corrupted. I risked one of my saves and enabled and disabled it a couple of times to check things out. I friended the townies and then disabled it and reloaded the game and hit save. I then reenable the pack and went back into the save to see if the befriended townies would come back or if they would reset. When you play with the pack enabled and do things and lets say one of the new world townies that you knew passes away, and then you disable the pack, play, and then reenable it, everything resets, so its as if you just installed the pack. So everything was fine aside from the items and world being removed. I will likely do this only for wedding events, but it does indeed work.
@HughLlewellyn

Ok, here's my theory. This pack was originally meant to be a stuff pack. I mean, how long has it BEEN since we got a stuff pack now? I think it was a stuff pack. Without the world. Without the kiosks. Without the messages in bottles. Just the wedding stuff. But they realized it needed more since we already HAVE weddings in the game, so some exec said, "Hey, lets bump it up to a game pack, add a world, and make more money. But they passed the order down so late in the process, the dev team were pulled off game play and had to focus on making the world, the kiosks, etc, work instead. The environments team & lot builders kicked ass. Got the world done, then the coders were implementing the new additions with the neglected game play... and Valentine's Day rolled up. You're ABSOLUTELY RIGHT they were aiming for that and rushed the hell out of the pack trying to make it. But the tossed-in world, coordinating with the environments & creators who did the builds ate up all the rest of the time. So exec looks at it, thinks, "What the hell. Pretty sells." Stamped DONE on the package and shipped it. Head desk.

I’m curious as to how the community feels about additional elements to the ceremony vs. increased micromanagement. Like, in the sims 2, you just clicked on the arch and if there was a chair nearby, anybody who wasn’t exchanging vows would sit and then clap at the end, and that was enough for me. I wonder if most players are the same, or if they really want all the additional stuff, like flower pals and walking down the aisle, etc. Honestly, I think a basegame update to slightly improve existing weddings would have been sufficient, and then a stuff pack. But perhaps stuff packs have been retired in favor of kits.

It was clearly too much for the devs to do with the game they're working with.

It would be much more appealing to me if I could click “start ceremony” on the arch or something and the actions auto queue. For example, say I chose to have a flower pal. When I start the ceremony the guests would automatically sit down, then the flower pal would walk down the aisle, then the couple, etc. if no flower pal, the game would be smart enough to skip that interaction. Unfortunately, I don’t think the game is smart enough for this kind of thing… Very disappointing.

Which is a shame, because Sims has brought me so much joy over the years. Whether it's an issue with the studio or the publisher this issue of non-functioning packs needs fixing. I'm amazed some sort of consumer rights law hasn't been broken at this point.

Biggest problem with sims in general, is the days are not long enough to complete any extra tasks apart from filling needs and a bit of skill/relationship building. I use NRAS relativity mod and I literally double the day length and it is still just enough time to do extra stuff. They keep adding all this stuff with no possible way of completing any of it in a reasonable timescale

Sims are sitting, the bride and groom and the officiant is actuslly on the arch already (wtf) AND when they cut a cake its so cute because you can actually splatter cakes into their faces. The only problem is that they stop sometimes. But all in all the pack worked fine and most of the guests cried especislly close ones and my sim cried while walking on the aisle! How cute was that.. EDIT: so my sister tried the pack and it didnt work on her (made me more furious on ea, she saved up on that)

Every time I renovate a house or a room and do the showing event at the end, I get 0 stars and they don't pay me. It takes almost all of the fun out of it and makes it virtually impossible to advance in the career. I've yet to find a fix so if anyone knows I'm all ears

This is so wild because I only play Sims 2 atm, and in 2 if you click on the wedding arch to get married, all guests (everyone on the lot technically) automatically get the activity prompt to watch it. If there are chairs in front of the arch they sit down automatically as well (it's clearly using the same logic as watching TV - if there's place to sit, sit, if there isn't, stand to watch). Once it's done, that activity falls away and guests get up to mingle again. If you bought a wedding cake, the couple can cut it, which prompts all guests to come watch the cutting of the cake. After cutting, the couple and everyone watching automatically gets the prompt to take a slice and eat it. Sims 2 came out in 2004.

I think its also a talent drain we're seeing at EA in terms of the actual programming that's required for these games. There are so many postings for EA software devs out but no one wants to apply (EA doesn't pay enough and is banking on people wanting to join simply for the AAA status). EA finally has a creative team that is able to see plan out so many things we've requested over the years (hence the increase in quality of the CAS and build items we're getting) but is lacking in the software dev department to fully see these ideas through.

Yeah, there's a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy at play here. Gamers are the ones most likely to want to MAKE games, and they know about EA's reputation. So they don't apply. So then EA's quality gets worse, so more people see EA games and don't want to work for them, so the quality gets worse. Over and over.

Hopefully they will fix all the problems, but let's get real - they still haven't fixed other major bugs/issues with the game, so what's the chance we'll get a proper fix with this pack? All I can say is thank goodness for the modding community (who have released several mod fixes for PC users)! Thanks for the vid! Awesome as always.

Now it's just disappointing how bad they messed this up Edit: Plus, I forgot, the sims reactions and moodlets.

@sleepiemc

Its times like these that I can't help but get upset about the pack prices. I wouldn't mind them if the packs' quality was worth it, but they're not. Likewise, I wouldn't mind the quality of the packs if the prices were lower and more fitting, but they're not. To make people pay so much for packs when they don't have a worthwhile amount of content, are lacking in quality (in this case, completely broken), and must be picked between carefully due to the huge amount of them existing while the average simmer can only afford so much, is just unfair. Especially for a company as large as EA. They're capable of doing better and there's really no excuse for putting out content like this when the community would be willing to wait longer if it meant they'd use their time to make sure what they were releasing was good. I hate to say it also, but as lovely as it is to see more diversity as time goes on, it's deeply troubling to see it all in packs while the base game is severely lacking. It's making it so that if you want your sims world to be diverse, you'll have to pay extra money, whereas the simmers who could do fine without that will get a more proper experience for less. As much as I'd like to believe the sims 4 team is doing this out of a genuine desire to show appreciation to all walks of life who play their game, that wouldn't change the fact that they're putting diversity behind a paywall and leaving those of us who can't afford it to miss out on telling our own stories and seeing ourselves in the game. I'm not the only one who feels this way, I've noticed, and I wouldn't complain if I was. I hope they listen to feedback on that as well because man, I just isn't fair.

The concept of this pack is AMAZING. Love the amount of customization you can have from the wedding cake to the ceremony activities to literally picking who gets sent down the aisle. My only thought on how it could actually work for the Sims 4 game, for specifically the ceremony and the aisle, is to just combine all of those individual selections. Like it should probably just be "Have wedding ceremony" and it triggers the guests to sit down, the officiant to get in place (if there is one selected), the flower pal first going down the aisle (if there is one selected), then the couple, then the ring bearer (if there is one selected), and then automatically into the vows and the kiss (if selected in the wedding menu). Obviously it's not as much customization but it's the only thing I can think of that might actually work for the Sims 4 specifically and how the game is set up. What do ya'll think could help this pack work?

I feel like, as was said in the video, that this pack tries to add interactions that aren't really possible in the Sims or there isn't the necessary groundwork in the game to make these types of interactions possible. But this is something they should have known and they shouldn't have tried to add all these interactions, like getting sims to sit down for the wedding and stay there and not talk, if it wasn't going to be possible to begin with. And some of the bugs clearly are fixable,like the animation for the kiss. Their lips don't come anywhere near each other. Or the fact that you can't actually cut the cake. What I want to know is if they are even planning to fix the issues with the pack? Or are they just going to be like 'well, here it is, take it or leave it.' Also, what was the point of making all the Sims creators say 'this isn't the final version' if they weren't actually going to fix the "final" version?
