What the heck?
Waaaaay to go, Sims Team. Sims 4 isn't popular already, and now you guys just made a bunch of people mad. In June of 2019, Sims 4 will no longer support 32-Bit systems, meaning those who have the game...

They do not need to physically hear from us about our pcs - they have the telemetry that tells them all about your pc.
They may have record of our pcs but not from our bank accounts. How many of the 32bit users or 64bit playing as 32bit will be able to keep up with the new requirements? I have a 64bit pc that can only play the 32bit version or it closes. And for sure i won't be able to find 200 or 300 euros in the next three months in order to upgraded my pc. Sims was a way to keep my mind of my health problems and now will be taken away from me. It's just sad.
But if 95% of players have 64-bit systems and only 5% have 32-bit systems and there are bugs that are likely not fixable as long as a 32 bit system is supported, then EA is smart to take support for 32 bit systems away.
Yes, I feel for those of you on 32 bit systems who are not able to upgrade to 64 bit.
And keep in mind, you'll still be able to play the game. You just won't be able to update your game or buy new packs. At least not until you are able to upgrade.
I had a similar situation during Sims 3. My computer could not handle city worlds. Bridgeport was a laggy mess. It would take all Sim day for my game to render formal attire for my Sim to go check out a club. I could not justify buying a new PC just so that I could play one world. The other worlds played relatively well, even the WA destinations. So I could not play Bridgeport until I bought a new computer. As "luck" would have it, I was forced to buy a new computer when that one died of hard drive failure. It was 5.5 years old. I probably would have been in trouble with Pets since that EP raises game specs.
