FriendlySimmers While I and many others truly do empathize with you and share your feelings about this issue, that number is growing at a rapid pace! Getting their attention, asking them isn't going to make things move any faster.
I have a suspicion that this bug is actually from base game changes and effecting all packs, thus making is 100 times harder to actually find the coding with the problem and then fixing it.... thats a whole other time consuming project. You would have to truly understand the complexities of programming to understand that this one issue, is not going to be as easy to fix as we all would like it to be. There are so many factors that influence this.
Having patience would be so much easier if we had the communication from EA. So, I take deep breaths cause the this game and solitaire are the only games I play!!!! And my game is so broken in many ways, I honestly was in tears 2 nights ago when in "Live Mode", my gal was visiting a friend and we (me and my sim) watched in horror as the reaper came and took their cow, and all 4 of their chickens and 2 of them were young adults and I always play with aging off for everyone! I went to report it and saw the issue was just solved with an update??? 😵
I am finding myself getting angrier and angrier everytime I play my game now. A cycle I do not like and the only way I know to fix it is to quite playing altogether.
On this thread I did ask the following on Feb 20: Directly to someone ::::: If I may be so bold to ask, tho this may not be the place to do so either, I don't want to start a new thread. What, if anything, can we as players do to get some of these major issues fixed?? Like this issue.
What do you need from us .. that may actually influence this issue to get fixed?????
MY post was moved to: [PLEASE READ] Information/Questions about the bug forum | EA Forums - 11850203
it was helpful and lots of it was new since the 1st time I read it all when I started on this forum.
EDIT::::: And before someone is kind enought to suggest that I remove CC or MOD - 1 have 1 game. 5 saves at most I think and never CC or MOD tho I am on a PC.
Mods and cc are absolutely not the reason for this bug. Platform players are having this issue as well as vanilla players. They always want to blame mods/cc
dmorr43 That is precisely why I do not use them!
In my opinion CC and MOD are vaulable assets to companies to first (1st) blame something else, not be accountable, CC & MOD = scapegoat.
My understanding is this and please if anyone reads this and has more accurate knowledge and understanding - if I am wrong about this - CC not so bad as long as it is decor only. But today, more and more hackers are having a blast using CC as a way to get people's information to use in bad ways.
MOD per my understanding - actually changes how the game is played??? Making it do less or more, and this blows my mind, fixes what's broken that the developers can't fix themselves??? I've had such MOD's offered to me.
I think that PC/Mac are the only one's that can use CC or MOD's? PS4 and PS5 I know for fact they do not! Any other platform, I am clueless about.
If this has been fixed, then I recommend you do a game repair. Also, delete the localthumbcache.package from your game. It likes to hold little bits of stuff in it.
Since you don't know me, LOL, I get what your saying!
Just so you know, I always, before I go online to play, I remove all LastException's which occur simply by entering the game and localthumcache.package. I also will clear the EA app's cache 24 to 36 hours after an update or install. then again periodically just to be sure it's clear of all the advertisements and changes they made to the splashscreen. Because it can build up there too! Your system may try to read files that it no longer needs!
I have had to "repair my game so many times after each new pack it is actually ridiculous as to how many times I have done it. Sad fact is this tho: I have only 1 game, meaning when I play, I always resume playing, I never "choose" a game. I have 1. which means I have 5 saves for that 1 game. Never CC/MOD, Always create a new save once an update is complete, exit game, go back in game and choose to play the new save I created, enter and then delete the old save. With that being said, other than the game play, I should have exactly what the developers gave me! 100% virgin 100%pure. If what I have doesn't match what they have, then I am going to wonder how and why not?? Because everything I have came from EA developers.
