Running so slow!!!!!

calm down

Get a new device

This new update is ridiculous! It's so slow and laggy that when I try to move around my town, I barely move a milimeter. Or, it will take my movement as a click on a person and change their outfit or click on a building instead of moving me...which now takes me 4 times as long to get where I want to go! It's gotten to the point that I may stop playing because of this issue. It's too aggravating for me.

Disconnect the race car and log ride

Thanks Frosted1414. Disconnecting the rides solved the problem.

I am playing on a Samsung S8 plus and I am not facing lagging. But if I was to put out a group storage, I need to wait like 2 - 3 seconds for it to be done.

This is my humble opinion regarding the slow down.

I started playing this crazy game at Christmas 2012 with my new iPad 3. Years later, the crashing, slow downs etc. (including no more updates with the iPad) were getting ridiculous. Per recommendations from other posters I removed the monorail (but still generate rails for the donuts) and started deleting apps, pictures, videos, music to free up more storage which helped for the short time. Every update the slow downs/crashes got worse. I play 4 towns. My main town was the worst. (I have never reached the decorations limit), but I also saw the same thing in my 4th town which has very limited land, decorations, characters, buildings.

So I bought a new iPad Pro a month ago. Wow! What a difference. More memory, more RAM and pretty much no more crashes. One thing I did notice though is that if I have other apps open when I play this crazy addicting game, I will see a slow down in one area of my town. Usually around my Stonecutters and it’s in all 4 towns. Sometimes I will sync the game and hard close it. When I then go back in to the game it is sometimes better and other times no difference- server capacity/usage?

The game is huge. Server capacity needs to be huge too. RAM and storage need to be available for the game to function optimally. I don’t think EA expected this game to go on this long. I never thought that I would play it this long either!

Just my 2 cents. :smile:

I had the same question as everyone else. But I am not sure so i will just ask. So if you have way too many things out in your Springfield like all of the decorations, houses, buildings, and also all the tracks I had a warning about too many objects and may cause the game to run slow. So i been removing stuff and still the game is running really slow. So has anyone else been having the same issue?

Suggest you read the post before yours about disconnecting the track/chute on the track and log ride. And yes tons of people are having issues with it.
