- Xion_Luna7 years agoNew SpectatorIf the video was marked as private it can mean that it was a special video for a friend or co-worker or someone they was giving the code to but somehow the video got uploaded to the public and that code they have to make a new one.
video game companies do give out discounts to special people it almost like you get invite to there Sims Camp. maybe it was for some very popular YouTuber? Overall there is no sale. if that code was not given out to anyone that is one mess someone did. - icemanfresh7 years agoLegend

Why would they bother making an entire promotion for a select group of people though? It kind of defeats the purpose of a promotional video. - Hopefully it means there’ll be a sale soon... I really want seasons
- Netzspannung7 years agoSeasoned AceWhat I don't understand is that these videos announcing a sale are still up when there is no actual sale.

if the official sims channel on youtube wished to give a youtuber a special discount code, they would contact that youtuber. they would /not/ post two different videos, one seven seconds long and one fifteen seconds long, that are clearly ads for up to 50% off on select expacs and game packs nor would those ads direct a fake special youtuber to origin for said sale.
a sale and a special code promotion are two different things. the videos posted on youtube are for an actual sale that will happen on origin at some point in time. a special promo code was posted onto the sims 4 twitter for 50% off the base game. those two are clearly very different in their reach and purpose.
again, a sale and a promo code are two different things. it's up to EA to: fix what they've done, apologize, and give a date for the sale or just ignore it until people stop bothering them about it. - Something is definitely not right. I've checked the promo videos and it says, "TS4 on sales now". It's not a matter soon or when. It should be now, which is soon after they uploaded the video. It is very misleading.. EA needs to rectify this... either pull down the promo ads or open up the promo as per advertised....
- Winchestercester7 years agoRising AdventurerI really think this video may have been uploaded by mistake, or if not, revealed far too quickly by accident. They could have been trying to upload to private and accidentally uploaded to private. To upload to private would've made more sense so that it could be switched to public when the sale went up but maybe they just haven't caught and or fixed their mistake yet
- I-Sim4ever_807 years agoSeasoned AceI hope EA or the gurus can explaine why this has happened 2 videos posted almost exactly the same
Hopefully we will hear something by Monday
Happy simming everyone - Why is the video still up? It takes 2 seconds to remove a YouTube video.n
- It seems the sale is only on the Base Game, and for it to be applied you have to enter the code "CHOICESIMS". Via SimsVip
