Not a fan of thencurrent forum at all
Every time I log in, specifically for Madden, I need to trawl down to select it. Too time consuming, not user friendly to me. If I have a certain game forum saved, I really do expect to be back in to that forum right away. Not search down a list for it. This doesn't do a lot for me tbh. In the past I could log in and go straight to the content I wanted. Now it's a bit messy and unnecessary.
can we have a few more languages in the EA forum?
i know i barely use the Dutch forum despite being one myself (little ironic i know) but we only have so little languages we can choose from i bet some non-native English speaking people (rather) wants to use the language that isn't in this forum just yet like: Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Norwegian to name a few that isn't on the list yet the only few languages we can choose from are: English, German, Dutch, Spanish, French, italian, Polish, Portuguese and Russian i hope you guys consider this adding atleast a few more languages?Feedback about The Sims 4 category
by the tittle i don't mean the actual gameplay, i mean sure the game itself needs its feedbacks too (i bet everyone else do too) i meant the feedback about this link Categorie: The Sims 4 | EA Forums We have: -The Sims 4 Creative corner -The Sims 4 Feedback -The Sims 4 General discussion Then we have categories that's issues related: -The Sims 4 Technical issues (Consoles, Mac & PC) -The Sims 4 Gameplay Questions & issues -The Sims 4 Mods & Custom Content -The Sims 4 Bug Reports but we used to had the category in which you could share your ideas about the pack you have in mind "creative idea" or something? (can't remember the exact name) i feel like feedback is more like if you want the game to become better either for basegame or the already existing packs and the ideas you have in mind that don't exist yet deserves to have its own category i know it may take ages to move probably half of the topic ideas there but i think it should be possible if we all report the topics together to place it to the category which don't exist yet tittle for the category: "Creative ideas" or "Sims 4 ideas" so we can share our ideas there instead (actual feedbacks and our ideas about the packs/basegame update get so mixed up, that may be confussing especially for newcomers) with other words: The Sims > The Sims 4 > Creative ideas/Sims 4 ideas (just a thought) we can seperate things more this way if feedbacks stays as an actual feedback that already exist in The Sims 4 either for basegame or the already existing packs...who's with me? edit: maybe even better: creating a pack idea archive category similair to this one once it's out The Sims 4 Bug Reports - Archive | EA Forums (but instead of bugs it's the pack ideas category archive) i bet even some of the ideas about certain things are in the "General Discussion" category too that can be merged with the already existing topic (not just the Feedback ones, the pack ideas is all over the place in both Feedbacks and in the General Discussion categories...i bet changing the website have something to do with it, it got all mixed up in both the "Feedback" and the "General Discussion" categories) so make it "create 2 new categories" except you can call it "The Sims 4 (Pack) Ideas Archive/History" (i just came up with it) with that idea added it should go like this: The Sims > The Sims 4 > The Sims 4 (Pack) Ideas Archive/History we can keep things in order even better this way we can place it in the "The Sims 4 (Pack) Ideas Archive/History" or rather the team once the pack is taken care of or rather once the pack is out (i know we can't place them in that new category i have in mind but the teams can for sure...we can report it if it isn't taken care of) with other words: 1 category based on our ideas about the packs and the other some kind of a archive pack ideas the team can place it there once the pack is taken care of The Sims > The Sims 4 > Creative ideas/Sims 4 ideas (like the name have suggested it's based on pack or basegame ideas) The Sims > The Sims 4 > The Sims 4 (pack) ideas Archive/History (like the tittle have said, it's pack ideas that's already out that can be in "The Sims 4 (Pack) ideas Archive/History" we used to share our ideas with) (i hope the team consider this adding 2 more categories in The Sims 4 category)
Forum Navigation - browsing posts issue
When browsing the list of posts and then reading one, afterwards either using back button or forum breadcrumbs, I’m always returned to the top of the list rather than where I was in the list that means I have to scroll back down every time to where i was - very tedious Doesn’t or can’t the forum track where I punched into a post? or is there some setting I’m missing
New Sims Forum Feedback
Hi! This is for the team at EA who are hopefully picking up on feedback and looking to constantly improve these new forums. What I’d like to stress, and ask for from all us lovely Simmers, is that this isn’t a place for being overly negative, aggressive or angry towards the team or specific staff. I’ve seen quite a few reactions that are just that and if we want to improve things, while we don’t have to be overly positive either, we need to be constructive at least. Having been a member of the original Sims forums and the newer rendition in recent years, I think it’s fair to say what keeps the forums running is the sense of community. So a few things I think that would help this would be: customisation for profiles - avatars, signatures, adding social media links or blogs/websites so we can find each other elsewhere. Paying specific attention to each rendition of the game, the Sims 3 community is massive and has been around a lot longer. So please consider us when making changes! I can see the sims 4 forum/threads already have plenty more tags and options than ours do as well as sub forums that we haven’t been able to keep. We have a whole community of storytellers that benefitted from the stories and legacies subforum and whether the game is 15 years old or not it deserves to live on. Changes to the formatting of threads and replies. I’ve noticed it is already hiding multiple replies under a “show more” filter which limits conversation. Also nesting replies is confusing, the original board style was much easier to navigate and chat on, which is what these forums are all about. As already highlighted, changing the automatic filtering by likes to newest would make it feel more relevant and conversational as a quick fix in the mean time. I personally miss being able to bookmark threads, especially since the sims 3 forums have lost our sub forums and all the migrated ones are in the franchise discussion (please rectify this!). I can’t navigate to what I want to read and am losing track of what I’ve chatted on unless I get notified. Could we also have a list of the rankings just out of interest? I have no idea what a traveler is but apparently I am one 😂 As always, super grateful to the team for taking feedback on board and looking forward to improvements and developments as they come! Happy Simming! Lizzie
