This just happened again for the 3rd time since I first posted here. I've never had this pop up in the approx. 2 years I've had the PS4 version and now in just a day or two it's interrupted gameplay 3 times. I can't imagine why it has to do it so often all of the sudden, or why it can't wait to do it on startup instead of in the middle of Simming. It's starting to get on my nerves.
Aaaand... fourth time. This needs to stop. My graphics don't need this much adjustment, and it shouldn't be happening in Live Mode. EVER! Ether give us manual graphics settings and let us deal with whatever comes of our choices, or create a single set of graphics settings that applies, one and done, automatically at startup according to the specs of the console. This constant readjustment is a sign of incompetence. Someone didn't know what they were doing when they implemented this system. Just let us do it ourselves so we can set and forget it.
- I agree with everything everyone has said, it’s unnecessary and it happens too often and there is no apparent advantage for the player, it just interrupts your game and makes the graphics poor, this is a feature that needs to be stopped
@Knotwise13 - I'm inclined to call it a nuisance rather than a feature. Poor graphics indeed. My one Sim has a Dragon Age Inquisition arm tattoo that looks perfect in CAS and like a gaping wound in Live Mode. The birds and blossoms tattoo on her back look more like a rash. I have a sneaking suspicion that the lowered graphics are also at least partly responsible for cross-stitch and jigsaw puzzles being in black and white. They need to just give consoles the same graphics menu that the PC version has and let us handle it (and live with whatever lag our choices may cause.) Just because we're playing on console it doesn't mean we're too stupid to do our own settings. Some of us also have both console and PC versions and know the difference. This is not okay.
