Re: Can we play Sims 2 UC without Origin

Do I have to buy Sims 2 University and Fun with Pets in disc format to be able to play those two games included in Sims 2 Ultimate Collection I was gifted by EA in 2014 ?

    @SimSizzle , if you own Sims 2 UC, you will have to play it with Origin installed. In order to play on disk, you'd need to uninstall the game as it is currently only recognizing the game as Sims 2 UC and not Sims 2 on disk.

    TreMayne, ty for taking the time out to answer my question.

    I'll play it on the other machine. It does have Origin and Sims 2 UC.

    But I do own University because EA gifted it to me in 2014 with Sims 2 UC

    I used to have Origin in this machine but I removed it.

    I just find it strange that the game was unlocked by using the cd verification code from Origin on the other machine associated with Sims 2 UC which has all

    the Sims 2 games, but it didn't unlock the whole game on this machine but Sims 2 UC complete is installed on this machine too.

    @SimSizzle , that is odd. I know that if you have Origin installed and own Sims 2 UC, you can install it on other computers. 

    If you need any more help, just ask. 🙂 Mate54 and I are usually around.
