    Hi,

    Re pictures. Yeah, sometimes it's not possible for me to take screenshots in both languages. If it's a one time thing I have to decide if I wanna go with German or English. I do try to make them both languages where I can.

    It's confusing that it says downloading when it's actually installing from disc but you can check the speed you get or turn off Internet during the installation itself. You just need Internet to activate.

    To install an update, you will need to have Internet again. If you usually play offline, you can check my blog or other news sites for news when there is a patch.

    You need an internet connection to install and verify the game. After that you can put Origin in offline mode and play Offline (I recommend doing that while you have an Internet connection. Then once it works, quit the game, turn your Internet off then try if it still in offline mode. It should.

    It doesn't matter if you have the disc or download version. The only advantage of the disc version is that you don't need to download the game itself (although that sometimes seems to happen anyways, even with the disc)

    Thanks to both of you .Hey crinrict I have read your sims 4 help blog and I saw you mentioned that origin shows downloading in disc installation of the game so I  am confused that If I buy dvd  and install sims 4  from dvd it will download from internet or origin  just shows that game is downloading but it is not downloading .My final question  is how do I update sims 4  when update will be available and  the blog is good but I cant read the words in some pictures of installing guide  because they are not in English .Thanks again .

    I doubt you can see your PC games on your phone. Have you tried if they show on the client on your PC ?
