Experiencing Numerous Issues on PS4
I recently bought a bunch of the DLCs during the PS4 Holiday sale and have been playing quite a bit of Sims 4 lately. I also bought the base game because I wanted to be able to play with out having t...

Hey! I also play on console, so I thought I’d address the issues you asked about if I have also experienced or heard anything about them:
1. I’m also having this problem, and I’ve read PC is also having similar issues. I don’t remember if this has been patched for PC or not, but I hope we get some kind of resolution in one of the next two updates?
3. Lol. My sim does this too. It seems like they’ll autonomously take food only when they’re really hungry, so this may be by design?
4. I completed that aspiration by mentoring other sims in my household. I’m not sure if you can mentor sims while they’re playing for $, but there’s usually someone playing the guitar in the fashion district. You could possibly also check out the karoke bar?
5. Do you always have to change their clothes manually? I have to do this on occasion, especially when traveling between towns where the weather is different. I’m unsure if this is a bug, but it doesn’t happen to my sims every time, so maybe it’s by design?
6. I thought the weird date times were patched a long time ago? It’s weird if it’s still happening to you. What version are you running?
7. This also happens to me. I decided it’s just because sims are jerks. 😂 Usually I try some type of work around where I tell my sim to “go here together” or something like that. Most of the time that brings the other sim around for me.
11. Yeah, there are often lags after painting or taking “customized” pictures. I’m guessing this has to do with the console processing it, but IDK.
12. I think there’s a work around for the game speed thing? I believe I recently daw a thread about it in the bug forum.
14. This ALWAYS happens to my sims when inviting people outside of the household to camp. They’re usually somewhere around in the world, but they can be hard to find! It really is frustrating, so I just stopped inviting people on the trip and instead invite them to the lot to hang out via the phone.
15. What do you mean by stupid mistakes?
16. I notice this with seasons but it’s so much like the regular weather where I’m from that I think it must be by design. However, if you hate this, maybe buy the weather machine and use it to change the weather?
Anyway, good luck! It can be super frustrating to play on console, but there don’t seem to be many console players that report bugs. Maybe if we report them more often they’ll get corrected soon? If you head to the bugs forum and type in some of these issues, you may find work arounds or more info about patches. At least you can click the “me too” button on the problems you’re having so EA knows it’s important to us for gameplay.
