Please take this with a huge grain of salt, but I have heard from a usually-reliable source (won't tell who they are for many reasons) that The Sims 4 will announce yet another controversial (possibly disappointing too?) news soon. I guess we will see if this happens, but get ready in case if it will. :disappointed:

Hmm. I guess any news could be controversial/disappointing for some, so I’m not really sure what this would mean. The Horse Ranch pack was very disappointing for a lot of players, but really great for many others.

Interesting to see what would be so controversial that there's a heads up on it already, though since it's not official but in-the-know, it should definitely be taken with that grain of salt you mentioned, if not a mountain.Disappointing though? Sure.

If simmatically isn't a ploy from the sims marketing department I will be really disappointed in their marketing team.I'm hoping for the announcement of world packs. I have no reason to believe it will be that, I just really want world packs to be a thing.

I followed the shallow conversation on X and really nobody needs this kind of non-news (and what am I doing on X??).

There is a rumor going around that Disney bought The Sims (4), Simmer Erin made a video about it, I will send the link here below:https://youtu.be/c0JWA9EE0lA?si=mBlTmFCGBTDkgtOxCould this be the "controversial news that will cause a lot of discord between Simmers"?

@bixters have you tried adding it to your bookmarks on your computer or adding the page to your phone's home screen?

I'll probably bookmark it in the future. I just found it odd that Google didn't come up with it when I searched for it, even though it used to pop right up.

Because I have had a lot of trouble getting to the Sims forums lately. Whenever I used to search for it on Google, I just typed in Sims forums, and it pops up. But now, it just comes up with Electronic Arts forums. I had a lot of trouble finding this website at all.
I could potentially see them moving to discord also, but it wouldn't surprise me if they completely transition to the EA Forums instead.

How weird! I have it BM'd but I have searched for it many times through Google when I'm not at my main PC and it always popped up.

Searching just now, after reading your post, it doesn't pop up for me either.

I tried searching:

Sims4 Forum
Sims Forum
The Sims Forum

and the only "official" link that Google search showed was for the one on the EA site.

It shows up for me on Microsoft Edge but not on Chrome or Firefox.

Yeah, I use Firefox, so that's probably why I don't see it either. Thanks for the clear up!

I have it bookmarked on my phone and I have each sub forum bookmarked I use most.. I'm using Samsung Internet since it goes to dark mode at night. I have no problem getting here.

I hope they're not going to replace the forums with a discord.

I also noticed it is hard to find the forums when doing a Google search. I mostly use my phone and have bookmarks. But when I use a pc and search for sims forum I only get results for answer HQ. This started a few weeks ago. It feels like EA might be preparing to pull the plug on the forum. :(

Yes I have had problems getting to the forums too through google. But I found out that the link to get here is:
forums.thesims.com/en_us

I too hope they don’t replace the forums either. I spend more time here than I probably do on my game because I come to the forums on my phone.

I doubt it’s the forums changing, believe it or not most of the fan base is on other social media than on here

OMG I also never find the Sims forums on Chrome anymore! That was bothering me recently, but I am glad it's not just me :open_mouth:
