Re: Can I play Sims while an expansion is downloading?

Hi @Ingridimus 

It shouldn't be a problem. However, think that because you're installing some content it may cause some sync problems and some of your progress may not save properly. If I were you I would wait until the download is complete. Come on, we all love sims but the download is not that long! 😉

  • Haha, I know the download was not that long. 

    But since I had some issues with the internet it only downloaded wit 70 kb/s haha.

    Anyway, I've been patient and played something else, so now my guilty pleasure can start xD

    @Beckem87 It is when you have satellite. ! LOL took me three nights to download The Sims 4. And I'm not exaggerating. But I was wanting to know because I have stranger bill now that I'm downloading and I was wondering the same thing if I could play Sims 4 while Stranger Ville is downloading.. :-)

    Tbh yeah one game pack ain't that long. But my sisters game needed to update and she has almost all packs available.. it takes up to 3 hours at the least to get it all downloaded and installed.. I'm lucky I have a few less game packs and such, but it still takes over a hour for me. Any idea why it's so darn long?
