I've passed this on.
Thanks for your feedback.
Didn't even notice this thread before creating mine. So glad to reconfirm that it isn't just my console. Heck, it isn't even just one brand! Both PS4 and Xbox are dealing with this. Really hope they can work out a fix soon...game is a ton of fun but this bums me out.
If it helps, it feels like it's just getting worse every day. When I tried to play an hour ago, even my tiny lot with 1 sim was freezing like CRAZY. There's no way that's normal.

Another video. One sim on a tiny lot. If we could at least hear from a dev that this is not the expected behavior and would be looked at, I'd feel a lot better having spent over $250 on the game.
EA Staff (Retired)Hello everyone
I just wanted to let you know that we are currently investigating this issue. We will get back at you if we need more information.
Thank you very much for your reports.
Apologies for intruding on a console thread, but this is the thread that EA has earmarked for their basegame update. Experiencing all the issues described by Console players, but I'm using a PC. I own nearly all the EA content to extend the Base game. I was using custom content, but followed the instructions I saw in a different thread to remove my game folder under Documents and restart the game to create a new folder. This series of steps did nothing to fix the lag and freezing. I ran dxdiag and it reported no problems with any of my system components, storage, or memory. Windows 11 64-bit. Alienware Area-51 R7, AMD Ryzen Threadripper2920X processor, 32 MB Ram, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card. Game totally unplayable for all the reasons so thoroughly documented by console players.
