Grim Reaper Event still not working
Hello, I am making a new discussion post because a lot of the grim reaper posts have been marked as "fixed" but my game is most def not fixed. Like others from the past, my ambrosia letter was delivered successfully to my sim. I opened and read the letter, then all of my quests at the top left of my screen disappeared. little grim reaper is still there but none of the quests are. When I click on grim it just sends me back to the rewards page for the event, there I can confirm that I have only completed the first event from the first week. Everything else is still open but not showing up on my screen. I have tried repairing my game, I have moved to a new lot. I have started a new family. Nothing is working. The last reward I have received is the cook book.
reapers rewards broken
ever since the beginning of the reapers rewards event, my game has been broken in various different ways. the first thing i noticed was that once i completed a task, and received a notification saying i can claim a reward, the button promoting for me to open the event ui doesn’t do anything, and when going to the events menu on the main screen, i still can’t claim anything as it wants me to claim them in live mode. i then thought to ignore that issue for the time being and instead focus on just completing the tasks first. however, the tasks to plant a lily and a snapdragon won’t recognise as completed. initially i thought it may have been because the lily was out of season in my game, however, even when moving them indoors to a greenhouse, neither of the flowers were recognised as being planted, so i couldn’t progress. i also experienced issues when building the greenhouse for this task. my game seemed to be glitched, and wouldn’t allow me to remove any objects. if i clicked on them, it would highlight them and make the sound as if they had been removed, but they stayed there, and it was impossible to delete them. finally, when it came to shutting down my game to look for solutions online, neither the exit, or save and exit options would work. the exit button wouldn’t do anything, and the save and exit button left me in an endless saving loading screen. i thought maybe my mods caused an issue as i have quite many, but even after removing my entire mods folder out of the game, the issues still persisted. i’ve seen a few things about solutions other people found if they have the game from steam, however my game is from the ea app, so none of those solutions are possible for me.
Scare Seeker Lot Challenge issue
Hi, regarding the Reaper Rewards. I have a problem with applying the Scare Seeker Lot challenge to my lot as it does not show in the list. I claimed it last week, it shows claimed on the Rewards screen but still is not in my lot traits list to apply. I have 42 lot traits in my list yet the Scare Seeker trait is missing. My game is on PC, Win 10. I do not use mods. I have read a reply that this has happened to another person. Please respond if you have encountered this and were able to fix. Thanks
EA. PLEASE let us turn off Grim Reaper Rewards and ads.
How can I turn it off? I'm not at all interested in the rewards or the challenges. It's sitting in the corner of my screen ruining my gameplay. Will it go away eventually or am I just stuck with it? Even if this one goes away will I be able to remove the next one?! I thought it would maybe be like the discovery quests that you can opt in or out of, which I already have turned off. PLEASE LET ME TURN IT OFF! I'm so confused as to why they made this a in game situation. Everyone plays this game very differently and this is making me want to stop playing. I've checked all the settings and tried multiple saves and there's nothing you can do. I'm more than annoyed by it, I see a lot of people in the sims community are also wanting to remove this. Stop forcing this kind of thing down our throat. I'll be here searching the internet until this problem has been resolved or until someone makes a mod to remove it all together. You know and I might as well throw in that Vivaland looks better and better everyday......
Reaper Rewards event is broken.
Like many other people the Reaper Reward event is broken for me; I am on Xbox Series X and was only able to complete week 1. Then the quests part of the UI disappeared and I got stuck on Become Friends with Grim Reaper portion of the event and can no longer progress through any of the rest of the event. I can open the portion of the Event UI that shows me the rewards and tells me what goals need to be completed, but the actual quest portion itself does not show up no matter what I try to do to fix it. There seems to be 0 fixes for console players and I've attempted playing offline, starting new saves, deleting save files, going through game settings and options then disabling and reenabling them, and even went so far as uninstalling and reinstalling the entire game and all my packs. The silence for assisting console players in this well known issue is staggering and speaks volumes; Our time and money is clearly not valued. Absolutely nothing has worked to fix this issue and it feels extremely unfair at this point with 16 days left in the event and the complete inability to progress at all with no way to fix it in sight. Especially being stuck at halfway through Week 2 for me. Are the event prizes just going to be unlocked for everyone with all of these known issues? If not, then I am most likely just going to end up quitting the game at this point and selling off my account because so much money has been spent just to keep having game playability issues, it's absolutely infuriating and has completely robbed me of being able to enjoy the game anymore. It's incredibly disappointing to see the Sims devolve entirely into a cash grab for EA when I have been playing since Sims 1. As a consumer I do not feel valued and I know I'm not alone in those feelings all across the board.
