The first patch we got? Pathetic, weak, didn’t solve a whole lot of problems. The next patch? Hopefully we will see a lot of bug fixes and newly added features. According to The Sims team, we may get just that as they’ve left us an update:
Hello Sims Fans! We wanted give you a heads up that we are hard at work on giving you an update to The Sims 3 in the coming weeks that will address some of the things you’ve been asking for and discussing on the forums.
We thank you for your passion for The Sims 3. Your feedback is welcomed and invaluable to us, so keep it coming!
No idea if the ‘coming weeks’ mean next week or perhaps next month, but at least we have something to look forward to. Hopefully it’ll include the Neighborhood Tool they have promised us. I wouldn’t get my hopes up though!
Thanks to reader Jane for the information!

what does it mean with neighborhood tool?
They (Ben Bell) stated in old interviews that a few weeks after the game’s release we would see a neighborhood tool which will either let us modify the current one or create whole new neighborhoods entirely. However, in previous interviews he seemed to of dropped the subject entirely, thus not sure if they plan on keeping their word.
That would really make the game better for me. I hope it comes eventually!
Better be the neighbourhood tool… lol. I’ve been waiting for it for years I tell ya! 😛
I hope they will fix missing inventory, and add more options for story progression. And of course I hope neighborhood editing tool or maybe they will release it later in August separate from patch
