This issue has been happening since I purchased the game and seems to come and go. Lately, it's been every time I play and completely game-breaking, making me want to throw my console into traffic.
This issue was also never resolved but archived.
Re: [NEEDS SAVES] [PS4] Scrolling too fast randomly | EA Forums - 11316342
I've done two screen recordings of the issue. Nothing but closing and restarting the game fixes it now.
In the first video, I'm trying to select the fencing I want. I close out of the color selection to demonstrate that it happens even when trying to select a fence. Managing to click on the one I want (through luck) I now want the pink color. Same thing: just keep gently moving and as little as possible until I land on it by pure luck.
This happens no matter where I am in the game, regardless of menu, and it happens with the D pad and joystick on the PS controller.
The second video demonstrates that it happens on other menus as well. I am just trying to exit to the menu, not save. Eventually, I give up and save & exit because that's the only option I can land on to get me back to the main menu. Going back to the main menu has sometimes resolved the issue in the past, but not lately - it was still happening there.
It makes doing simple tasks like selecting dialogue for my Sim a major annoyance and more complicated tasks such as building anything an absolute nightmare. It happens the most in Build Mode, so this is my nightmare.
I have no mods. Purely vanilla game with only a few expansions. But this has been happening since I only had the main game and no expansions whatsoever, so I know it's not an expansion issue.
Yes, I've done the basics. Cleared space. Made sure the game is up to date. My system is also always up to date. Yes, I checked anyway.
