[Groveman]

Is there a way to install this fix without joining Steam? I downloaded the game to my PC vis Xbox. I don't want to join Steam.

Hey all, I wonder if you can take a look at your algorithms. I always build slowly and methodically to avoid death waves, but since the patch I see recurrent waves of dead elderly cims.

As you can see it isn't really a show-stopper, per se, because I have more than adequate death care provisions. Those bodies will be retrieved somewhat quickly. But it is a bit of an annoyance to look up and see a screen filled with slow hearse notifications. I'm wondering if something needs to be better randomized or sequenced in how the game determines when elderly citizens pass away.

UPDATE - @co_avanya -- the game literally cleaned up all those dead cims the same month that they appeared. Personally, this doesn't seem like a "bug" to me -- but this phenomenon of mass die-offs only started with the new patch.

Absolutely experiencing this same phenomenon in my cities now since the latest patch. I have to assume that you guys know what's up since reports of this issue appear to be widespread but if you want more bug reports/file uploads, just say the word. And letting us know what you know and when the next patch will be is always an approach worth considering!
