    Strange. I would try to uninstall and if it was still gone I would submit a ticket with EA.

    What's the procedure for an uninstall? Delete from the pad and download it again and the relog in to origin? I don't want to make the problem worse.

    And no, did not get the money back.

    Yeah basically , this probably won't bring bk your sphere tho :( still worth a try, had you just bought it before? Did the game crash after getting it? Or had you had it a while? Do you sync your game every time your done with it?

    Like I said in my pervious post re-install etc wont help, what was your answers to my other questions?

    For one you will need to open a ticket with EA to resolve this situation

    Bought it and the wax museum a day or two before I got the swat van. I don't sync that often to be honest as I have never had the need I though... Until now. Game did not crash after getting it. Only time I have had a crash in the past month was visiting one friend who has since been deleted.

    Where do I go to submit a ticket?

    I wouldn't move anything around just yet , also take a screenshot of where the sphere used to be so you got a record of it in case EA ask for it :) KL should be fine to continue with as it your main town that has the issue

    If it were me I would avoid doing anything major to your SF. KL should be fine though. I'm not sure how fast they will get back to you since it's the weekend. I hope you get it taken care of soon.

    There's a quicker way to sync now that we have the bus stop.

    Go to KL
    Come back to SF
    Game syncs while loading SF

    After horror stories like these... every player should do that 60 second routine every time they log out. Friend screen then back to SF also works, bur a quick check on KL is usually more productive.

    Thanks. I usually check friends, KL and SF every time I log in. Had no idea syncing was so important.

    Good luck Amuck. I hope your town is back to normal soon.

    Normal is him wearing a robe and a pointed hat made of newspapers yelling at his phone because the people in his town aren't sacraficing enough goats to appease his bloodlust.
