1.3 patch stupidificated the sims.
Lonesome Dove:
What's up with the action lag? I give my Sim a command and he'll stand there for half a minute or more before performing the action, like going to bed or taking a shower. I noticed it before this patch but it didn't seem nearly so long. Is anyone else experiencing this?
So far I'm not having any of the other problems people are describing (knock wood), like the taxi in the kitchen or route failures. I had to do a complete reinstall before I could patch, and that was a huge pain because the aborted first attempt at this latest patch kept my game from uninstalling, reinstalling or working at all. I finally got a link to instructions on where to go to manually delete all the shards. Goddamn ass-sucking EA and their POS software that injects itself into every crevice it can find!
Bouncing Pink Ball:
^ Yes, possibly. It's the one post-patch flaw I've discovered so far with my game. I'm not seeing as much lag as you described but it does seem to take longer for the little pixel folk to get moving. Also, every time my sims are temporarily stopped from doing what they intended to do by oh, let's say, some other sim standing in their path, it now takes eons for the blocked sim to do anything but tap his/her foot and look disgusted. The offending sim could be out the door and halfway down the street before the foot tapping tantrum stops. I don't recall quite this much standing around pre-patch.

Since installing the patch, I also noticed that my sims take forever to change outfits the first time during the play session. Which means they stand stupidly in front of the shower/bed for 2 sim hours while all of their motives continue to drain before getting in, and they always miss the carpool/school bus the first day, etc. It's getting to be really ridiculous!
gethane:
Oddly, this did not seem to happen to me right after the patch, but its happening now.
diskoh:
Well my game has become unplayable. Things have gotten worse every day since the patch.
Every sim with a job in my neighborhood is currently stuck outside their workplaces. I went through an reset each of them individually, and it happened against the next day.
They've started freezing up while they walk, especially going through doors and gates. Once they finally get to work (late because they stopped and froze for 2 hours on the way) they just stop outside the door stare at it.
I guess I'll remove all of my mods and see what happens, but I haven't added any since the patch and things break more every day.
