Request Abou Sims3

Hello, I know, the support from SIMS 3 has ended since SIMS 4 was coming out but still, I‘m sorry to say that, but SIMS 3 is still my favorite and I‘m sure besides me, there are some more sims3 fans they still play they game. I personally love to play in Island Paradiso but it‘s sad that there are so much bugs since the outcome from Sims 4. for example: the gameplay is freezing for some minutes, sometimes it needs 3-4 minutes till island paradiso is regenerating and you can go on. Another bugs is when u visited China, France or agypt, it Seems the saving Data, after returning into your hometown, got some failures. Then again, I‘m enjoining sims3 more then sims4, to be honest. So my question is: aren‘t there any chances to keep Sims3 running as good as it was before the outcome from sims4. I‘m pretty sure there are a lot more people besides me, they‘re still playing Sims 3 instead of Sims4. Thank u for reading. Sincerely Akihra

    @Akihra  As far as EA is concerned, there hasn't been a development team for TS3 in years, and the last meaningful game update was (I think) in 2014.  So the chances of any more official improvements to the game are slim to none.  I have to say, though, in my very subjective opinion, TS3 was just as buggy before TS4 was released as it is now.  The main difference is that with so all the available packs, there are more opportunities for things to go wrong than there were with just the base game.  EA never put the necessary effort into troubleshooting TS3, so players had to do it for themselves, with varying degrees of success.

    Speaking of which, while the out-of-the-box version of Isla Paradiso is so glitchy as to be almost unplayable, a couple of talented world builders have edited it and posted their work for others to share.  If you wished, you could play a fixed version of IP that works as well as, if not better than, any EA-made world.  Here's a thread on the subject:

    It should also be noted that the gameplay features that come with the Island Paradise EP work just fine.  You can place the relevant lots and spawners in any EA- or player-made world that you like, provided that the water is deep enough for scuba diving and navigating boats.

    As far as the other glitches you've encountered, you could always post on the Sims 3 forums (as in the link above) and ask what other players do to manage them.  There are still quite a few people over there, most of whom are happy to offer advice.  All you have to do is ask.
