Frustrating by design, offline mode needed
My Internet connection is horrendously poor. This is in no way restricted to this game, its just a fact of life. And therefore, since this game needs a continuous connection, I am often unable to pla...

@sindidoll, I want an offline mode too! It would make playing so much easier, I think.
@sindidoll @terogamusaudiHaz EA keeps records of your progress. If your logged in, EA keeps saves on their end should your game mess up and you need to go back to a prior save. If you don't stay logged in, you could loose your progress. This is an app version of the Sims 4 for PC and I don't like the save system in that game. I'm sure they can't give you the PC save version on the app. I do know as your saves get larger with the PC game your files will get larger. Phones do not have large storage like a PC. If your save takes up allot of space on your phone , you may have issues with running out of space
I didnt say anything about being logged in, just constant online mode. Saving the game every couple of seconds isnt good. I would benefit much more, without loosing significant amounts if it saved, for example every 5 minutes.
This is not in any way an app version of the sims 4. I have played sims 4 since its release and the games are not comparable, in any way other than the look of the sims.Also I do feel that it is possible to save in the app, especially if that save could be stored on the external SD card. But thats half the issue with phones and tablets these days is the only thing companies allow to be stored on the external are photos or music, and the entire internal memory is used up with system apps and 1 or 2 additional ones, slowing down the system and leaving the external completely empty, but internal completely full. Regardless, although I certainly would think that would solve my problem, it is not what I am speaking of here. Just the ability for me to hit save myself instead of a continuous need for connection every few seconds. Or for the auto save to be less frequent so that I do not get this screen above all day/night.
It's the dumbed down version of the sims 4 on app. I own the sims 4 too. I believe many of the items that are in the sims 4 are in this mobile game however no way would it be as massive as the sims 4 and the game play is different on mobile. Being logged in I believe is being connected to EA servers. I believe what your trying to ask for is like the sims 4 where you can go in off line mode like the sims 4. Like you said the games are different.. I believe this game uses EA cloud where your game gets saved.. EA's way of tying your mobile game to origin. You need to be on line to attend parties, throw parties . You get rewards for this. . This is actually a cool part of the game . You can't build in the game like the PC sims games. This game would really be boring off line and you would be missing features. This isn't a single player game. You tie into other players on line
