EA App and Sims 4
Hello again all, it’s been a long time since I’ve played sims as life’s just been too busy but with all the exciting things that could be happening for the Sims soon I would like to start playing. ...
@smilelikemiles The short answer is, there's nothing the EA App does that Origin can't, and the App has plenty of issues that Origin does not. So there's not reason to switch until you're forced to do so.
However, using the EA App shouldn't affect your saves at all. The only common problem with loading saves is when the App doesn't load all the required packs, for example when it's not recognizing them or when someone accidentally signs into the wrong account. It's still a good idea to have backups; I'm just saying there's no good reason you wouldn't be able to play your existing saves once you switch to the App.
There are certainly other cases where saves stop working, but those have to do with system issues or mod-related problems and don't depend on the game launcher you're using.
Thank you for the quick reply as always. I’m torn on what to do. I feel like the EA app won’t ever be perfect but I feel like I saw it had a lot of issues.
I don’t mind still using origin but I also know I’ll eventually have to make the switch anyways.
if I make the switch, should I update my game in origin first before the switch? I play in offline mode and I had updates paused/stopped
