I’ve recently moved over and have not found any issues with Sims 4. Unfortunately, there are issues with Sims 2 and Sims 3 though.
Sims 2 Ultimate Collection is now Sims 2 Double Deluxe, and all Sims 3 Special Editions and Limited Editions are now just Sims 3 regular editions. I haven’t checked my Sims 3 store stuff yet as I haven’t downloaded Sims 3 to my new computer yet.
Please let us know about these inconsistencies here so we can alert the right teams."GalacticGal;c-18209284" wrote:
Once again, the App is a but, telling me my game failed to launch. It's been doing this for quite some time, recently. I don't think it's ready for Prime Time, plus, I've also noticed there is no longer the warning that Origin is coming to a close, soon.
We have a thread for this issue here. - Lucy_HenleyNew SpectatorI’ve not had any problems with the EA app so far. I only play Sims 4 on it though.

I'm not quite sure what all the outrage over this is?
I can't speak for others and I myself am not outraged. However, when I moved my sims3 game (which i still play) there were issues with the store purchases so I went back to Origin.
It's an older game so that may be the problem but simmers paid a lot to get that content for their game and they should be able to continue to use it. Especially since it is still being sold.
Hopefully that issue has been fixed. Guess i will find out when I have to switch.- SharoooniaNew Spectator

I haven't noticed any outrage about it.
I'm not happy for being forced onto this app because it doesn't work properly with the older sims games and to me that says that it isn't ready for being forced upon people. I and others have spent a lot of money on these games and we should be able to continue playing them as we have been doing all this time.
The Sims 3 store content is not cheap and being denied use of these items is unacceptable. If EA can't fix their new app to work with this content then we should be afforded the option of continuing as we are by accessing the game through Origin. - Yeah, it's no problem if all you play is sims4 but for the rest of us, having our sims3 imperiled by the new ea app, is the problem.
Imagine if you couldn't access a bunch of your sims4 stuff, because of the new app you had no choice but to use? You'd be upset. - bshag4lvSeasoned AdventurerLast night when I went to sign into Origin, a sign came up that said, EA app will download...no choice. So I thought here I go. Actually it worked like it was supposed to, thank heavens. Sorry some are having trouble.

I was forced to switch to the EA App today and it shows, that I have to download the Basegame. But I already own the basegame and every pack except menswear and paranormal.
I can enter the game and everything seems alright ingame, but it is confusing that the EA App is still telling me I need to download the basegame.
I already cleared the App Chache, but it did not help the issue.
I have no clue, but I read somewhere that it might help rebooting your computer and app a couple times until everything is installed. - OldeSimsFanNew Traveler

I'm still on Origin. I'll only move when/if I have to. When they switched from the EA Downloader to Origin, I lost a bunch of packs and had to deal with customer service for a long time trying to fix it, only to discover some packs were no longer supported. I didn't get them back until they released Sims 2 Ultimate Collection. (They did give me a free Sims 3 pack as a way of reimbursing me). I also lost all the stuff I'd purchased in the Sims 2 store and didn't get that back until years later.
As an aside, does anyone else find it humorous that they had an "EA" app, went to Origin, and are now going back to an "EA" app?
Humorous, no; ominous, yes. It gives the impression that what was discarded as inferior to be replaced by Origin is now being gone back to. Not a good feeling. - Jayel-1Seasoned AceI dared look, and right enough it's telling me to install the EA App and it will automatically uninstall Origin. I'm not even going to try it now. I'll do it tomorrow when I have a whole afternoon free to sort it out if anything goes wrong!
- I still use Origin on my computer; just like Windows 11, I don't plan on changing until I'm forced to do it.
