New Origin - updated with Legacy Edition available (apparently).
I had just closed my Sims 4 game and Origin came up with the following message.
Origin requires a critical update
A critical update will be required in 22h 3m. Please exit your game and restart Origin before then or you will be placed into offline mode.
Then I signed out, quit Origin, started and signed on again and this message came up on the top of the Origin screen.
! Adding the Sims 4 Legacy Edition to your library may cause it to download automatically to your device, including 64-bit devices where it's not required.
So be careful what you download is my advice. For a minute I thought my laptop was deemed too poor and being offered the Legacy Edition but it's a good Omen gaming one so I think I will be OK.
It looks like you probably will need to sign out and quit and start again just before the usual update times if you don't want to be summarily put offline by Origin. It might need some more elucidation moderators as I don't quite understand what to do. @EA_Rtas @EA_Mai
PS: I didn't get that required update by signing off, quitting and restarting today.
UPDATE
Origin has updated itself this morning.....
I've Found the Legacy Edition available for download in the Extras column of the packs you can buy for Sims 4 in Origin
It's with the "Add-ons under the Bundles available, with the Party, hats, digital sound track etc.
You don't need to download it unless you actually need it if you are told your computer won't run DU. I suppose it is available now if you want it.
PS: There are 3 bundles available now, Worth looking at.
