Is It Just Happening to Me, Or Has Origin Gone Berserk? UPDATE
I ask, because I was having problems with my favorite Sim becoming Hysterical and dying twice and even after rolling back to an earlier save he went Hysterical again. I changed out my saves file for a copy of the one in my back-up game folder. Things appeared okay, but then after getting a warning he was freezing to death (easily averted by bringing him back indoors), you got it. He went Hysterical again. This wasn't something I had experience in all of this time and I have played since the game was released. Something is wrong.
I made the decision to repair my game. That flubbed up and I've been fighting to play my game ever since. The page on Origin even went wonky. Yesterday, it flubbed up again. I then decided to download Origin anew. Thinking I'd made a good choice in doing that, as my game loaded. My packs didn't go through the queue, but I found them and in scrolling down, saw that all of them had been installed. Phew! I went into my game ever so briefly. But the end of the day had arrived. No time to play. Instead, I waited until today.
Happy, I got through with a few tasks and sat down to power up. What do I find? Origin has decided it must repair my game. AGAIN. Mind you, I did NOT right-click and select that option. It's doing it on its own. :open_mouth: It even had all of my packs in the queue, which were all installed again as of yesterday late afternoon/early evening. What in the world is going on? If this is the new and improved Origin, I want out. This is buggy and making my game inaccessible. Repeatedly!
I'm sitting here fit to be tied. In attempting to allow the game to do it's thing, City Living runs into an error and I need to complete it later. When is later? From now on, once this mess is cleared up, I'm going to go through my start menu to activate my game. This is a pain and so much MISERY. Why, EA, why? And you wonder why I'm not so inclined to recommend Origin to a friend.
