August Patch Speculation Thread 2023 (Patch is Live)

EA said it was fixed but it really isn't.

REPORTED FIXED. Close and restart the app to launch the game. There's not an actual update.

I'm still getting the 'Update is Required' notice. Guess I'll check out the bug report page.

Decided to play Skyrim instead. Only problem with that is I love Skyrim to the point that once I start playing again I have a hard time switching back to play something else. Maybe I will try alternating the 2 games after I am sure Sims 4 is fixed. In the meantime I am off to adventuring!

Yeah, they really did NOT fix it.

I tend to alternate Sims and Civ 6 depending on my mood :)

Same for me too even after closing and restarting.

The EA App problem is fixed. To see the fix on your end, do an EA App Recovery:

Open the EA App

Select the upper left corner menu (three lines)

Select Help

Select App Recovery


NOTE: If you still have issues, try also restarting your computer. Or go for a walk and try App Recovery again in a while; the fix may still be rolling out. And no, there's no actual update!

Working for me now.

So is/was there an actual update? I never got the update message. TIA

Ahh just saw @luthienrising post. Thanks!
