CLOSURE ANNOUNCEMENT: The TSTO forums will be closed on December 13th, 2023. Read more about the future of the forums here.

Hello EA, hello moderators!? Anyone even reading the B&I threads??

Maybe you should try the EA support?

Did you clear all the cache?
Did you hardclose the app?
Try this atleast 3 times.
After that try reinstalling the app?
Then probably clear your town a bit (if you got alot of stuff) since alot of stuff can cause crashing.

    The other thing that can cause crashing is having too many friend request pending, you may need to log into the Origin Download website to clear down some of the pending. Other than that raise a ticket with EA, they will get back to you within 48hrs https://help.ea.com/contact-us

    Hope you get back into your town(s) soon

    There has been people who have had over 200+ requests sitting there which is where the problem can be caused from, it certainly worth checking every now & then just in case

    Did you clear all the cache? Not only the app crashes, but the device. After rebooting there is nothing in the cache etc.
    Did you hardclose the app? See above.
    Try this atleast 3 times. 40 to 50 times in the last days/weeks.
    After that try reinstalling the app? I've done that. Also after the Update.
    Then probably clear your town a bit (if you got alot of stuff) since alot of stuff can cause crashing.
    I will when I log into the towns on my gf iPhone. But can this really be the solution?? I dont want to box everything just because I don't know how long it will take EA to repair the app. And besides: The game crashes way before it knows which town I want to enter. It crashes while loading the game.
    Thank you for trying to help! I wrote the answers to your suggestions into your posting above. :(

    Thank you for your kind response. I will do that and clear the 16 pending requests. But ...

    1. The game crashes way before it knows which town/user I want to use. So I am no longer able to log into my anonymous town as well.
    2. My main question was if EA knows about that problem and why we dont hear anything in this forum about it. Dont get me wrong: I know about the support form. But it's not an individual problem, so why open a ticket just for my town when there are many other users affected by this memory problem? Why having a Bugs & Issues subforum when everybody still has to open their individual tickets in order to hear anything from EA?
    3. Are the moderators in direct contact with EA?

    I don't have this problem now. But my game will crash sometimes when I try to go to a certain neighbor (not any of the mods :) ) who has lots of stuff. I also had the problem with another neighbour who cleared up his town a bit and now I can visit it just fine.

    You might want to try to clear those 16 requests, just incase.

    Your game probably tries to log into a certain town which might be the problem, my game always chooses a certain town to log into. If I want another town I have to log out of mine first. Except sometimes, sometimes it asks for a login right when I start the game.

    Jag var en g?ng f?r?lskad i en Svensk volleyboll spelare (Malin;)) och har arbetat som DiveMaster f?r en skandinavisk dykskola p? Gran Canaria. :D Och ja - jag kommer minst en g?ng i ?ret till Sverige; mestadels f?r att fira Midsommar. N?sta g?ng jag ska flyga upp i vintern f?r lite isdykning. 8)

    On a more serious note: The problem persists. And it has nothing to do with the pending friends requests.

    It's a memory problem. The game (and most of the time also the device) crashes while loading. It has nothing directly to do with the numbers of shrubberies I have placed. It's a program error that came with the Halloween update and then gotten bad and worse with the time.

    I ask again: Will EA correct it?

    Oh :lol: Wow. Isdykning ?r l?skigt! Har du gift dig med Malin? Du talar och skriver bra svenska.

    Har du skrivit till EA supporten?
    (min mail ?r inte kopplad hit l?ngre s? jag kan inte se om du svarar s? du vet :D)
