This just started happening after the latest patch. I'm on PS5.
The opening music doesn't stop once you get to the main menu, or even if you go to CAS, and my game preferences like audio volume, SDX drops, and stick control directions keep resetting every time I open the game.
Edit By Crinrict: Added platform tag to title.
So eith the update the annoying legend is back on my screen. It WILL NOT go away, even after I go to Menu-Game Options-Tutorial and Tips-UNCHECKED enable guidance system, and help center icon. HOW TF do o get this off my screen??
I play on my Xbox, so I’m not sure if it’s exactly the same as on PlayStation. But, I had the same exact issue and was totally stumped on how to fix it. Finally, I figured it out after searching around. I went to: Menu-Game Options-Other-and then I unchecked the box that said “Show Controls Legend.” I guess it’s in a different area rather than under the Tutorials and Tips section. Hopefully that helps! Us Console players have to stick together!
Control overlay won’t turn off despite disabling the guidance system. I’ve reset the settings and disabled them again. I also tried a new save and the issue still persists. I play on the PS5.
YOU GOLDEN ROMAN GOD!!!! Yes that absolutely did it.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I was going insane. Now my only issue is the changes I make to audio don’t stick -even when saved-when I close and reopen my game! 😂😂 Wouldn’t be a game update if half the stuff didn’t brake lolz THANK YOU
Same on PS4 ! Its really annoying !
Also on PS5. For me, every time I load into a save, it turns on all the guidance quests and the overlay, and resets all the settings such as sound levels, camera controls, UI sizing, and network stuff to default values. The first time, I thought it was just because of the update, so I reset everything to the way I like it, saved my game, and went to eat dinner. Loaded back in after dinner, and all those settings had been reset to default again. New save, old save, doesn’t matter. Every time I load into the game, the only settings that remain as I set them are the ones that are expansion specific (npc voting and so on). They are reset before I even load a save.
The is taking forever to load now too, and I also get a message upon finally getting to the main screen saying I’m not network connected, and the pretty background for the next expansion behind my sim family is also gone. So something has gone seriously wrong with this update.
I’ve figured it out! It will be in the settings > other > controls overlay reminder and disable it. It’s just different from PC players! :)
So in Gameplay I change audio settings and turn off the annoying directional legend. However, everything resets at the start of every game. Yes, I of course save changes. It’s annoying AF
I have the same issue. I have to adjust my settings every time I open my game on PS5.
