Q&A: Royalty & Legacy
#AD (just in case this counts as social media) I was invited to join the CFE (not final build) opportunity for The Sims 4: Royalty & Legacy. Thank you to the EA Creator Network for this chance to answer questions for you about the pack! I will be taking and answering mainly questions about gameplay - Skills/Traits/Aspirations/Career/Venues/Systems/Collections/Lore - and anything else you guys want to know about! I did test with ALL PACKS in as I believe this is yet another pack with cross-compatibility possibilities related to the various systems. (Please Note: Testing with other packs in is unsupported before regular Early Access, so may be extra buggy.) Testing was/will continue to be done on a mix of fresh CAS Sims and premades, to see lore and experience different levels if they are present. Format will be similar to past Q&As where I have links to each subject and add more info to each based on questions asked and as I discover things through gameplay. I can't start posting right away this time due to the embargo, but will be continuing to take notes/screenshots and will post info when I can. P.S. - I have a Creator Code, so if you find my Q&A useful you might consider it as an option at checkout. Using my code gives me a small commission (5% regularly, 7% during sales) and can even save you a little bit of money on TS4 DLC during sales (normally 5%). My code is EmmaVane. Just enter the code on the the payment screen where Promo Codes normally go. Thank you, EA for this opportunity.

Road to Wealth and SimFinancial Mod Compatibility?
SulSul! Does anyone have any experience in playing with both of the Mods in game? I would love to use both because they both have great features the other mod doesn’t add and look very maxis (I’ve already considered SNB but it looks to Alpha-y for my liking) I would love to have detail about how your game behaved and if they implemented into each other in any way or if it was all over the place or even broke your game (as that is my biggest fear lol) Thank you for everyone who is willing to share their experience and happy simming!Evolution : Birthday Warm up
Hello guys, Yesterday I had like one of the most UNFAIR issue in the game. so normally when you do an evolution for a player you are being able to pause it right? So now EA decided to bring out this Birthday Warm up evolution to get 5 weakfoot and 5 skillmoves for 60.000 coins and waiting time of 72 hours with an option to cancel it? May I ask why? Or why not with a warning message like are you sure you want to cancel it? Just to spill your time and coins. So I bought this evo waited for almost 72 hours and it would finish in 2/3 hours. Now what happened I thought in that time let me do some other evolutions, so I did and gues what happened when I pickedup my rewards for my other evolution? I just pressed the X button one time to much wich canceled my evolution after 70 hours of waiting and didn’t complete it and didn’t get my coins back. And I dont even care about the coins i would have bought it again but I also couldn’t… I contacted EA support and explained this and they couldn’t do anything about it so yeah thank you EA… and for others out there in the furute WATCH OUT PLEASE because it will be gone and all your time and hard work and money will be wasted. thank me later. Bye.World Selection Endless Loop
Admittedly, I haven't played the game in a while. The first chance I got, I jump right back in after adjusting my mods. I wanted to make a new family and I did, I even put them in a new house, but when I tried to play them, I kept getting sent back to the world selection screen. I relooked over my mods, updated the script files, deleted the local cache every time. Same thing. I eventually took out the folder entirely and was even sure to disable mod capability in the main menu. Same thing for HOURS. I'm just disappointed, I waited months to unwind in Sims only for the game to literally be unplayable
EA Sports Dilemma:Trying to Please Everyone
The problem with FC 26, in my opinion, is mostly the feedback from the community. As a loyal FC fan and player, what I seem to notice is the constant complaints and never-ending negative feedback. Some of you may disagree with my assessment, but I will say it anyway.I never thought I’d say this, but many players complain and give negative feedback no matter what has been patched. At the beginning of the release, the game felt good and enjoyable. However, when a small problem with the defensive AI appeared, the complaints started. EA then tried to fix it by opening feedback channels and releasing patches. But in doing so, they may have unintentionally confused or disrupted the game’s AI to the point that it now feels very different from the game we had at launch.My point is that we always complain and ask EA to fix this and that. Even when they listen and try to make changes, the criticism continues. Instead of constantly attacking the game, why not try to play it as it is and allow the developers time to improve it properly? If it were not for the first patch, we might still be playing the amazing version we had at launch instead of the more inconsistent and sluggish version we have now.In some ways, the community also shares responsibility. We bombard EA with feedback, and the company then has to decide whose feedback to follow. EA should probably narrow down whose feedback they prioritize—especially experienced players or long-time fans who understand the game well.instead of trying to please everyone not differentiating Casual,Competitive,Content and Pro Players.we all want different fix to the "game,when EA tries to please everyone FC 26 loses its identity. So, EA should not rush changes so quickly.And Lastly just to be clear, I am neither glazing EA nor supporting their actions.Just so you know I had been banned from the transfer market for more than 6–8 months, with no more chances to re-appeal so I have no reason to defend them.I cannot trade until FC 27, and it sucks but i can still play the game so it is what it is.This is simply my opinion. No hard feelings,Cool.
