Fps drops to lower than 20 until press Escape button or enter the menu.
Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.71.86.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Almost all
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play for a while, especially in big houses and you will see the bug, enter build mode many times and exit it if it doesn't appear. Sometimes i have it immediately once i enter the lot, sometimes after i try to enter few times to build mode.
What happens when the bug occurs? The fps drops to lower than 20, sometimes randomly when you enter your save, or sometimes in build mod, and to go back to the normal fps you need to press the escape button or enter the menu, sometimes this works, sometimes it doesn't. It makes the game unplayable and super annoying. Didn't play anymore because of this bug, I have it for more than 1 year on multiple computers, so my computer is not the fault. I already contacted the sims support and they said multiple players have this bug and they will fix it in a future update. Please do so soon!!!!! So we can finally play!!!! This should be top priority.
What do you expect to see? Stable fps without the need of pressing escape button or enter the menu.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No
