Re: Internet Icon Quest Pro Tips

@DankMemeSquad123 @AbigailHawk I’m stuck on step 17, the hobby one.  I’ve got three sims working their hobbies, but two just complete a chapter and it still says i have 0/2 completed.  I’m clearly no understanding what *exacty* they want me to do with these hobbies!  *tears out hair*

  • @Finealta: The chapters are those little mini cut scenes that pop up at Level 3, 5, 7, and 10. You have to complete two of those for it to count against the mission.

    Ahhhh now i’ve gotcha!  Thanks!  Geez they’re not making it easy to get this one done in time 😐 

  • @Finealta: They really are not!  Don't even ask how much sim cash I spent getting the walkthrough done in time to be of any use to other players. *cringe*

    I caved and bought cash, which i really hate that i felt forced to do because my game crashed so many times during this even and reset at least one event back 6hoursl. Then it had two of my sims doing the same event for 7 hours!  So while the third tech dept tries to figure out th issue, i’ve finally finished and will play on as normal... well if i could attend a party without it crashing or my entire game crashing!! 🤦🏻‍♀️ 

    Thank you all for your help though!

  • @Finealta: Me too!  It's not as bad today as it was yesterday, but I'm still getting random freezes and crashes while trying to do parties. It's driving me cray cray.

    @DankMemeSquad123: Oh yeah, definitely! All those numbers I listed were based on the absolute longest possible figure if you didn't contribute at all. There were too many variables to provide a list of times otherwise. I know for a fact you can get Part 17 done in about half an hour if you start from scratch on new hobbies and use cupcakes. 

    @Ricky001974: Yeah, I hate to say it but if you're only up to 12/18 at this point you won't be able to finish it without spending hella Sim Cash or Cupcakes or both. You've still got three eight hour missions to go, plus the 20 Sim Tokens mission (which is a pain because the Sim Tokens don't have a 100% drop rate; I had to do 10+ Quick Sim Events to get enough tokens), plus you have to complete two Hobby Story Chapters. It could happen if you go SUPER HARD, but... it'll be time-consuming and expensive. 

    @katclawsx3: You're so welcome! I love helping others. It's just a game, sure, but the frustration is very much real when you get stuck on something!

    That's a problem since I work full time and a life outside of this game, only play it when in the morning and evening time, and between breaks.   Makes my really considering giving up on this game.

  • @Ricky001974:  You just gave me a great idea! EA are really responsive to feedback and this is a brand new game, so they really need to know stuff like this so they can improve the game for the future. I've just made a consolidated feedback thread so that they can see this kind of feedback all in the one place. Would you mind saying something to that accord on my thread? It's important that they know what works and doesn't work, and it's up to us to tell them. :D

    HELP !  .... PLEASE  & THANK YOU 

    What am I doing wrong on the 17th step?  

    I had my one sim switch her Hobby from Yoga to the Writer Hobby 

    She has just reached Level 5, but not getting the Quest done yet!  

    Am I misunderstanding what needs to be done?  

    I had my other 2 sims do PRACTICE events on their guitar & cooking hobbies as they already reached the 100%, but I thought it would count toward the quest as I had them both do the approximate 3 hour. Sessions?  

    What at am I missing?    Only step 18 to go  (if I can ever get out of this Hobby Hell challenge) 

    So close and yet so far 😾😿

  • @katclawsx3: You know how at Level 3, 5, 7, and 10 of any career or hobby, you get a special story? And your sim tells you a little bit of story about what they're doing. THOSE are what you need to do. So if you've just hit level 5 then just do that special story and you should be good. 🙂

    OMG. You are so right! I just panicked when I reached that point and nothing happened—- but I just reached the end and now on my way to 18. Yay

    What could possibly go wrong?! 🤦‍♀️🙄. Thanks @AbigailHawk
  • Absolutely nothing! You've done this one before, so you know how it rolls. :D

    Don't feel bad, btw. I've had about a dozen people ask me the same question since I posted the video. Their terminology in the quest guide isn't clear.  :D
