So far so good on the new patch. I really like the angle of the camera, now that you can do full circle around your sim and really get close. I took a couple of close ups of the sims and they actually do look different than the other ones. The detail is really good, but I guess I am just so use to makeup, but, it is not a big deal. I had just started a new quest when I stopped the game last night, which I did have to start over, but I had not really gone much anyway, so that was good. My suggestion is, if you are in the middle of quest, don't update your game yet, wait and finish the one you are on and start another quest, then save and quit and install the patch. It gives you the warning that you will lose your game and I know how long some of these quests are, so just wait and install it later.
