Re: How to turn off time-limited events

Not resolved yet, no surprise. Stopped playing because of this design flaw with Reaper's whatever. Now, some holiday event has reared it's ugly head, uninvited, buggy and unwanted.

EA, you are missing the point here. Players want the ability to disable these events and NOT see the annoying interface clogging up screen. Essentially, there is no "opt out" option. Going offline is not a solution, it is a workaround. And in so doing, players would lose online functionality. So, Bravo!

$$$ I won't be purchasing Sims5

@jpkarlsen That is NOT a solution. It really doesn't help matters at all and players should have a choice whether they want the icons in-game or not. It would make a lot of sense if it was a check box, maybe something like 'Participate in Reward Events' that players could toggle if they didn't want the icons in their game UI. EA is being straight-up unfair to thousands of players and it's most likely gonna get worse in the future.

@jpkarlsen So your solution to them having something you don't want in game, is to turn off processes in the game? What? Get out of here bootlicker.  

@jpkarlsenYou can’t do this if you’re on Xbox 🙂 

But the real question is why should we have to? EA gives us the ability to change weather, aging, delete holidays, etc but we can’t opt out of these manufactured events?  Why? Marketing, that’s why.

I never wrote it was a solution. It is only a workaround that can be used while the event is on.

Dear EA Developers 

Wouldn‘t it be possible for there to be a seperate setting for the Events. In such a way that not everyone has this directly in the game, as many people don‘t want it. Special only for those who want to take part in these Events. 
An Indie Development Studio does it that way too.
