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

2 and 3 aren't really bugs. To avoid the monster under the bed there should be a night lamp called defender light or something similar. Place next to the bed and it shouldn't come anymore. And depending on their traits, some toddlers have more nightmares than others. Once they reach thinking level 3 the nightmares should stop completely :)

It seems a bit excessive though. My sim child has nightmares every night even when sleeping in the moms bed... it’s odd that or at least she wakes up likes she’s had one every night.

Strange, they need to fix that. It’s very excessive.

At least we got autosave now, because with Sims 3 when something went wrong and you didn't save, everything was lost.

:D Lol, I haven't seen any of this yet; sounds really funny. When that happens, is there water under the house or are your sims transported to a pool somewhere?

New bug I’ve found is when my sim goes on a community lot gains skill. And then has to work they come back home and it’s at an earlier time of the day when work hasn’t started yet and all new skill levels are lost. Almost reminds me of the sims two when you would go to community lots and time changed there but when you got back home the time was the exact same time you left... :neutral:

I go by MarvelDCgirl on a different account in order to play the game, sorry if this is confusing, anyway, I have a huge bug to report as well on console. When I have my sim plan a wedding on the phone, after I choose a few options, the whole game crashes. It's done so three times, each time I sent a video clip of the event to what I assume is the people who make the patches. Anyone else unable to have weddings ? I'm hoping this isn't going to effect all parties,so far I only tried weddings....it's a great game, and overall it's better on console then on PC . I found the controls very easy. (I'm a console gamer) I just hope they fix these bugs.

#5 Is my biggest issue. I hope they fix this a.s.a.p. It's more than frustrating to play for a few hours, then realize your game won't save properly.

I don't know how to get in contact with him, doesn't sending the error report with video clip count? I thought this place was where you reported to be honest... :/
