I don't think For Rent is going to download today ๐Ÿ˜ฎ


If you're like me, your Dl has been "downloading" for the past 2 hours.

What are you doing to keep yourself occupied? Are you playing Sims 4 without the pack? Can you play on another machine? What about stuff unrelated to the Sims?

I'm doing chores and listening to music.
  • I don't know if it'll help but mine was taking forever so I left it going, didn't cancel, and just restarted the app in the drop down menu, it was loading normally after and finished quickly.

  • Yes, my "preparing" time for the download is 14% after 2 hours. I have to go out soon and then will play something else.

    Still waiting for the fallout from the patch to get sorted. Meanwhile, I'm playing Sims un-patched in offline mode.
  • I had a bit of trouble getting Origin to start the download, but once I changed the preference setting to update automatically and then quit and restarted the app there was no problem.This too was about two hours ago now. (But maybe itโ€™s been working better on Origin than on the EA app.)

  • I exited the EA app, rebooted, and tried again then decided to cancel it and play without it. Who wants housework? Not me! I'm taking a break while the washing machine does the work.

    I wonder if uploading multi family lots is worth it? Will people want rentals without the new objects?
