[SDX] - The possibility to implement CC for console/noCC players

I'm aware that EA team is focused on a lot of different things and sometimes due to limitations it is hard to implement more objesct and swatches to the game. Due to that a lot of people (PC players) download CC made by talented creators. Unfortunately we, console players can not get an additional content than an official one. In my opinion, SDX can be a good way to implement some CC for console players. Major advantages of that solution are:

1. CC for console players [wow!]

2. Official CC will be no longer broken by patches.

3. CC creators will be promoted in the community

4. Much more possibilities for CAS and BB for everyone

5. If someone don't want to download the content, that person can skip the delivery.

6. CC creators can receive a grant from the collaboration which is more profitable than the Patreon where after the early access, creators have to make their content free.

7. Content form the packs will be no longer patched into the base game because EA has an deeeeeeeeeep ocean of custom hairstyles and other things.

  • @Sthenastia Personally, I would MUCH rather they spend their valuable time working on bug fixes, rather than testing and distributing a quarter million CC items for free player consumption.

    Agree with @Psychotps The game needs a serious bugfixing and if SDX help with this I would stop playing offline.

    The other problem if EA/Maxis this plan they must talk with Sony and Microsoft and I think it would be ... Microsoft: Sure, but you need all items check and disable achievements. Sony: Yes, but only recolours from item which are in game and of course disable the trophies! (Just look at the restrictions for Skyrim if you use their mods. Sony is strict there, self-simple textures mods disable your trophies)

    Another problem, I don’t think you can just skip it. If they game patch(monathly) the items from delivery are giving to all players. Now we say the team skip this, but I guarantee you that the items just roll out for all but, you just don’t see it. (All Jasmine Holiday events-items/Sims-Sessions-Shirts in your game, they just hidden but you can unlock these with cheats) I don’t need this, and I don’t want it. Console player are already performance weak, now add over CC-Items(hidden). I think this will end as cyberpunk and ps4 after a while.

    The right way would be create Kits with the help from CC-Creators and give they XX% from the sales or pay they for the created items. EA is not a Indie-Studio which need free workers.
