So I’ve been playing the sims 4 console for 2 days now. The first day i got so upset with the controls that i quit the game and went to sleep. (honestly i was very tired that day and did not have the patience) but TODAY was a new day. I was able to get a hang of the controls and i played it until 3am. It was a great time. Some bugs i have noticed though.1.Curser moves a little to fast sometimes. Maybe add a sensitivity scale like other console games?2. Sim children react to the monster under the bed every single night.... 3. Toddlers constantly have night mares.4. Switching from Ui to curser mode is glitchy at times with curser disappearing.5. Some people have had issues with saving their game.6. Ui and pop ups have tiny font that is hard to see at times especially since us users are not as close to the tv as we are our PCs. 7. When toddlers are sent off to day care you can still hear them giggling on the lot....8. Lot traits appear continueously 3 times when you come on the lot or leave the lot and come back. 9. Some icons get stuck when switching back and forth from Ui to curser.And that’s all I’ve seen so far. Thank you Sims team for giving us an exact port of the Pc game. I feel like I’m actually getting the full experience. And can not wait for dlc. My pic broke down the beginning of this year and i haven’t got to play sims 4 since. So glad that I’m able to play from the comfort of my couch. :smile:

Yes the biggest obstacle at the start is the controls. The tutorial bubbles make it even worse. They seem to get in the way and confuse you even more when they stop you doing what you want.Once you get used to the controls and those annoying tutorial bubbles have stopped the game is enjoyable. Biggest problem now is the extremely annoying and gamebreaking save bug.

Glad i already knew what to do with the game beforehand.

I haven't played a real Sims game for about 15 years back when I was a PC gamer so a tutorial would have been useful to me. But the tutorial in Sims 4 is useless. A tutorial bubble explaining a need that is blocking the view of the needs panel is just annoying.They should have just added a tutorial mini campaign that teaches all the basics rather than have annoying bubbles showing at inappropiate times.

Thank you for adding this thread. I'm playing on the Xbox One and some bugs i've noticed are below. But I have to say as a loyal Sims 1-4 PC fan i'm really enjoying it on the console.1. In CAS if I want to try a different colour item of clothing I seem to have to remove that item and then re-select in order to get the colour options.2. In CAS when removing an item of clothing to fix point 1 it randomly scrolls up 3. In Live mode sometimes the needs panel disappears but the hover overs still show, also the hover overs cover the needs - is there a way to remove these?4. I've also experienced the cursor disappearing5. My sim was at the gym when she needed to go to work, the sim went to the home lot and the time said it was 3 hours before she was due for work and the skills and friendships gained from the gym had been lost6. Not sure if this is a bug or a lack of understanding but my sim has gathered items in her inventory but there's no way to sell them (like on the PC) only place them in the world

Have you tried placing them in the world, going to edit mode then selling them using the hammer tool?Took me ages to realise I had to use thre hammer tool to sell a fridge.

Great Game, a few bugs. | EA Forums

What I did last night and was move someone into the lot, then enter build mode so I could demolish it and start again.

Also, with the Library not showing finished lots the night after I add them, it shows designs that were made by the game developers, says that they were created by me (which they weren't) and when I click on them, I get a glitched, buggy image like the game doesn't know what it's supposed to be.

That's an ongoing problem for lots of people, myself included. With no resolution yet. https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-Consoles/Lots-and-Sims-not-saving-to-library-PS4/td-p/6592890

I notice that if it’s a foodie sim or a sim with higher mixology skill they will not stay away. I usually don’t let my other sims interact with it much. And if they do it’s just wine or something to go with dinner. And they won’t keep coming back to it lol. But it can get annoying. When they keep making drinks for no reason lol.

Since the patch whenever the game starts up I have to redownload the ghoulish guitar. I had linked my account before hand and didn't have that problem before it. My niece also complained of crashing. The pro is brand new and not even 7 days old so I don't think it's that.

EA really should sort this mess out.

Unsure if this is a bug or not, but does quitting in the middle of writing a song restart the whole song-writing? Considering it takes basically the whole day + to write a song, it is not exactly feasible to write a song in one go. Is it supposed to restart the process each time?

I also wonder that. I always had to fill all of my sim's needs up early in the morning in order to successfully write a song before they pass out.

Normally you’ll find the unfinished song sheet in your sim’s inventory, click on it and you’ll be able to resume your song writing.

Does anyone else have issues when they're in build mode and turn on bb.moveobjects? There's so many things that go wrong with the controls. One thing is not being able to change the placement mode from full tile to half to free. Another thing was when I pressed the arrows on the controller, it would enlarge/shrink or move the object up and down without me having to hold L2 and R2 (it went back to normal after a bit). I don't believe I've seen anyone address these issues before?

Since the last update, whenever I load my saved game and go into live mode, sims are just standing there, not doing what they were doing just before I last saved. It's quite annoying. :#

Me trying to figure out why the bird feeder keeps saying must be place outside to fill up, even when its outside.

Edit: found out this happened because I had bb.moveobjects on before placing it. Works fine now.
