Several "The Sims 4" players started reporting about a new glitch in the life simulation game. It looks like the latest update rolled out to the game comes with a bug that causes some glitches and issues. One of these is that some Sims now are peeing fire.
RockPaperShotgun recently reported about this issue claiming that users are posting about the strange behaviors of their own sims in various online forums and threads. The new update reportedly brings the latest issue the game developer rolled out ahead of the Eco Lifestyle expansion pack. It includes new features in the game, including ladders, itemized bills, and a repo NPC for the base game.
Based on the complaints. It appears that some sims are now urinating fire. Fortunately, the glitch is not causing actual fires in the life simulation title. At this point, it is impossible to say how frequent this issue is occurring in the game, but it is definitely a nice one that led some players to laugh.
Aside from the fiery pees, the latest "The Sims 4" update also caused some serious issues. There were players reporting about the game crashing, and some others have temporary save problems. RockPaperShotguns also claimed that some new recruits do not appear to actually be good at fighting fires. Some of them turn up just to watch or stand in front of the fire instead of putting them out.
Some "The Sims 4" players are reporting that their existing saves crashed, which could compromise long hours of gameplay progress. A member of "The Sims 4" support team acknowledged the reports and said they are currently investigating them. A thread on "The Sims" forum is currently tracking the progress of the update.
I've seen a number of reports of the game crashing when attempting to load a specific save file. We're investigating, so sorry for the trouble. In the meantime please just hold onto the broken save and try playing a different save or starting a new game. — SimGuruNick (@SimGuruNick) June 3, 2020
The latest "The Sims 4" update is substantial, which explains why several glitches began to surface. The life simulation title was released in 2014 and has received a massive number of updates and expansion packs for the past six years. It is usually common for glitches to appear with the new update, but Sims peeing fire is definitely a new and unique one.
Both electronics Arts and Maxis earlier confirmed that they are working on patches for the issues caused by the latest update. In other words, "The Sims 4" players would soon not experience the fire-peeing sims. It would be interesting to see if players would fully embrace this unique glitch in the game. Meanwhile, there are no official details, yet if the game developers are planning to launch the much-awaited and long-rumored "The Sims 5."
