Ohhh kind of sad they haven’t fixed the insect farms yet. They’re pretty much unusable if you have more than one because of how many times you have to nurture them to make them continue growing. (I actually caused one of my sims to starve to death just trying to get 6 insect farms to healthy at the same time without any of them dying LMAO it’s near impossible.)

Liz

Listen. The whole thing is trash I can’t even play it.

Zurie

Then don’t play the game

Nada

Um not sure if it’s sarcasm but how can someone respond like this I’m genuinely wondering. Like imagine spending money to play but when it doesn’t work you’re told to just suck it up

Lisa Hopper

Is your system compatible? What happens when you try to play? Have you tried to contact anyone to trouble shoot your problem?

Trinity

I agree, at this point I can’t even play it either. I totally regret buying it.

Anelle

Why didn’t you just cheat needs for your sim?

sreser

Anelle not everyone likes playing like that -_-

Jmojellybeans

Looks up LittleMsSams mod “Nuture gives more Heath” it increases the animation time and give like triple the health to bugs! A blessing

Chelsea

I thought that was me forgetting they were there.I was like didn’t I just nurture you. I thought I could have my sim run her store during the day at like 10am but by the time she was finally done with only two bug houses it was already 1pm so she didn’t get back from her store til after 9pm and then had to take care of her needs in the meantime. I got rid of them long story short. But I just read someone recommended a mod so I’ll try that.

Kenzeigh

Wish they’d look into the disappearing items bug that I’ve discovered. Bills are completely paid and there’s no repo man, and the sharing initiative isn’t active. Randomly my furniture just disappears from my house and is never to be seen again

Laura

That’s the recycle disciple trait not a bug. If you haven’t recycled recently then your sim swipes their own stuff and recycles it for bits and pieces.

Trina

That names so much sense now

Cherise

I had to delete everything in my game because of this! Even after the update my saves still would not load! I lost all my generations! Having to start again! And it’s not the same just re downloading them from our library! It worked for the first 2 days then zip!

Ravin

The game deleted my save file as well. I lost all my families..buy I still have my houses because I always have them to my gallery

Sarah

Why is it always the damn couch?

Shaunte

My Sim doesn’t have the recycle disciple trait and things in my house keep disappearing. Counters, cat food bowls, my laptops, and other items just *poof*. I don’t like to play with cheats, but I had to enable cheats so that I could get money to re-purchase items that keep disappearing multiple times a day.

Khrys

Exact same thing is happening to me- desperately looking for a solution. The chess table and chairs, bookshelf, counter, etc etc randomly disappear during gameplay. No kleptos, no visitors and my family is witches, doesn’t go into inventories just…gone. Have to cheat money to keep my house working :’(

Hattie

I thought that was a whole bug on it’s own!! So glad I read this. I kept getting the notification that my sim successfully swiped something despite not having the klepto trait and no item being in the inventory. It took me ages to fabricate a sofa and I just realised it was gone!

Katrina

I’ve heard that Sims with the Freegan trait will recycle random furniture if you don’t let them rummage through trash regularly. I myself have had issues with decor going missing and thought that might be the reason. Not 100% sure though.

Jessica

the sharing is caring neighborhood action plan also allows your sim and other sims to swipe objects .

Nyla

does anyone else’s game have the controls on the actual screen for ps4?

Oop

I do

Claire

I do it is so annoying

Jodie

You can turn it off in settings!

Brianna

Yes I thought I was the only one in trying to figure out to how to remove it

Joanna Sebastian

Yes I have a ps4 and I am just played the new update and having trouble removing the game controls off the screen.

Alyssa

Ya but I turned them off

Nechelle

Go to settings in The Sims menu

Caila

Go into the options menu. You can turn it off there. I was so annoyed too, thinking it was just stuck like that.

DShaw

Mine started a few days so I was wondering why the controls were up

Sarah

Why is it always the d*** couch?

Cisca Cornelius

Will this fix the loading of ingredients in the fizzer issue as well???

Dorothy

Same here! I actually noticed today that my sim’s nanny appeared to be coming in and stealing the dining table and chairs. I think it has something to do with the voted upon community project thingy that was geared towards stealing. I can’t figure out how to get it back though, I’ve had to buy a table 3 times

Jenny

If you have eco its probably the “sharing is caring” from neighborhood voting

Carly is Dumb

There is also the NAP called Sharing is Caring or whatever, and other sims will come and take your stuff.

PinkOlay

It your neighborhood has the sharing is caring some will come in and take things from your house I thought I was something was wrong with my game, thing Just keep disappearing from my how until I caught one sims (that I invited over) Stealing my TV and TV stand.

Alex

Do you have the recycle disciple trait? If they havent recycled in a while they ‘steal’ stuff which turns to recycle parts

Lisa

If your sim is a recycle disciple and hasn’t recycled anything in a minute, they will steal their own stuff to recycle. Very annoying

Miranda

I’ve noticed that too, turns out my Sim was “swiping” them

Shelly

Does the neighborhood have Sharing as a NAP? It says that your stuff might randomly go missing unless you repeal it and change it

Lisa Guinn

Yes, that is exactly my experience as well. It happen after this latest update too.

WB

Make sure your community is not set to sharing is caring. Veto replace vote that mess out and you should keep your stuff.

Tish

I had a sim swipe her own couch. She wasn’t a kleptomaniac, still not sure how it happened. If I wouldn’t have seen it, I wouldn’t have believed it.

Charlotte

Does your sim have the recycle disciple trait? If so your sim will ‘swipe’ items from their house when they recycled anything for a while.

Dominique

I found that my sim swipes things but she doesn’t have the klepto trait. The items don’t show up in her inventory or the household inventory. I just get a notification saying that she successfully took something without anyone catching her. It’s SO annoying! She keeps stealing her own laptop!

Ally

That’s been happening to me too! So irritating!

Heidi

They didnt even look into the wall garden bug, plants there can’t be evolved unless moved off the wall fixture. Lame.

Ashley

I’ve had no issues evolving on the wall, have you been fertilizing them?

Phoebe

Will it fix the fact sims pee fire?

Darlene

I can’t use my dishwasher or laundry. My sims keep getting stuck.

simlady65

Same with me the cant use there computer the will be stuck for 10 min then sims game would cut off so I dont have a computer in my sims house hold

Carol Isenberg

My laundry doesn’t work either

Rachel

I hope I can play my girl at university now. Fingers crossed

Jackie

Is this a glitch or not? But when I use the fabricator even if it is just ones, it makes this really anoying sound and no matter what i do it just doesn’t stop?

Penny

This update has broken my entire game

kaysia

Idk if it is just me but since console players got the update for the gallery, my has been crashing and when it is time to save i always get the “error 0” and it won’t allow me to save…i currently don’t have any cc on my game 🙁 and idk if it’s a problem on EA’s end but please help.

Kyle

Yes please fix the insects, they are cool and i want to like them but they’re totally unusable

Isla

I just keep them at the community lot – since there are always people there to nurture them.

Savannah

What about the bug with cc eyes?

Isla

That’s a CC issue – they don’t fix bugs around broken CC. Download updated custom eye CC.

Ahmad

I think they’re is a gardening bug. I can’t grow potatoes or onions inside in the winter. But spinach I can

Lashannen Martin

yes my game worked for about 2 days after eco came out. after doing everything on this earth i got my game to work after deleting the game i was currently playing. it’s running just fine now. but now i’m so stressed out and tired from it i don’t wanna play

Kathleen Morphis

My game is not fixed. It still won’t load my saves. Completely unplayable.

Nicole

just updated today and still can’t load my saves, I’m almost ready to ask for a refund

Caila

Good luck, it is EA…

Josh

You guys need to fix the insect farms…and FFS, START PLAYTESTING YOUR PRODUCT BEFORE RELEASE PROPERLY.

Jordan

What they should’ve fixed was the darker skin tones to not look so ashy.

Erin Jefferson

Where is the lie!!! Lol

Katie

Any one have problem with a crap on of clay in there inventory?!? All the time?!

Isla

I’ve been wondering about that! After starting the community lot w/ the landfill trait, it seems literally every sim has clay, and about 3 pieces of clay in their inventory. I used Scumbumbo’s autonomy scan through MCCC to disable autonomously playing with clay.

Ashley

My sim constantly pulls a lump of clay and a future cube out of nowhere no matter how many times I delete then from his inventory. I think he found them at the Goths house but now I’m cursed with them

Verona Maria Chudy

Has there been any answer for the ‘clay’ issue. I have it, too. No matter how many times I sell them, they reappear & the sim plays with them autonomously. Also, that same sim keeps randomly pulling out this HUGE tablet that I’ve never seen before & scribbling like he’s checking off tasks. AND all my sims seem to randomly be autonomous although autonomy is off. What’s up with this? Any feedback?

Gore

I have this issue too, it’s driving me crazy. I have autonomy off for a reason, please stop doing stuff on your own, frick.

Jay

Please give consoles custom content

DrXtreme80

this better work seriously not cool being unable to play for the past few days, never had an issue like this before with a new Pack.

DrXtreme80

nope looks like its still broken. Time stops can’t click on anything but the surrounded animations still moving and just no Sims movement. Ugh its been nearly week.

simslady65

The same with me when I click on the computer in the house it is making me so mad it just start when the new pack came out

Simanl4

Same here, I couldn’t even save my game, can’t select any action or pause/speed, sims and things are still moving in the back

DrXtreme80

oh good glad I am not the only one experiencing this ordeal, hope it fixes soon. Usually I start a new game play a few moments, go back to my current one and all is good but nothing as of yet

Jayla Taylor

my game actually isn’t launching because i’d this update

Tamara

Is anyone else still having problems with the rewards trait saying your sim is a robot when my sims are not robots.

Meverly

Legit my sims will start doing one thing and stop. Then go do something else. When trying To make them finish the task they refuse to do it. I turned off autonomy for the Sims and the still do it!!!

Stephanie

Umm about the June 3 update was it for legacy edition because it’s not on my pc

Sarah MacNamara

No the legacy edition isn’t updated.

Ragena Johnson

They still need to fix the size items I can’t make my items big or small and to size

Whitney

My sims 4 still not working ‍♀️ It only works if I take my saves folder out

Tracey Carnes

I can’t play my game at all after the update today. Crashes constantly.

Reneissance

Hi
How do you remove the annoying controls from the screen. I went to settings but couldn’t figure out what to click

Amy Roberson

My whole game legit broke. Sims hair and clothes would just randomly disappear, and the sims would glitch out just doing everyday take like using the computer or interacting with other sims. The sims would do that “I can’t go there interaction” when I told them to go sit somewhere that they should quite clearly be able to sit at. I thought it might’ve been mccommand center (it’s the only mod I have in my game) so I tried running it without mcc and it still had all of the bugs. Why did it do this??? Everything ran so well before.

Kassidy

So my sim will go pee, and the toilet will catch on fire??? Can we fix that lol

Nichole

Did you check if it’s a compost toilet and the compost is full?

CarmE

I can’t see the photos after taking them with the camera. It doesn’t even show up on the wall…

tiffany

this is hilarious. I noticed my sims were peeing fire recently but I thought it was just a weird effect I hadn’t noticed before

Ashley

You need to have a bug farm thing and compost the waste in it. It’s from an upgrade to the toilet.

Levi

Hey I’m on console (Xbox one) and it won’t update ? My game keeps crashing and won’t even load anymore. I’ve tried to turn my console and game on and Off again (By pressing quit) multiple times and even tried manually attempting to update from the settings but it continues to say “queued”. I REALLY can’t afford to lose the game entirely because of this. I don’t know what to do and I’m becoming very anxious. If anyone could help, please do.

Nichole

Almost all of my plants are now invisible after 6/10 patch 🙁

Nichole

My game is so broken. I can’t even create new sims. Hopefully they fix the “fix” patch soon 🙁

Lisa Brookes

I had something similar but it was my lemon trees just stopped growing and producing fruit…

Autumn

Really… that’s all…audio has problems if I play for more than hour, game gets really glitchy if j more for 30 mins (console-xbox) and its only bee. Doing this since the last freaking update

Minou

The game is still glitchy- sims won’t do simple tasks, I can’t get my sim to travel. Also there’s this weird thing where my son’s pets disappear as if they’re not in the same world after 10 minutes of playing??

Khrisstyne

I’m starting to get kicked out of my game when trying to travel. I can’t believe how many bugs the patch and the expansion pack has. I do LOVE the expansion pack but I can’t play fully while trying to avoid every thing that’s wrong. 🙁

Name

Curious if the get famous gig glitch was fixed in the original update that caused all these problems that had to be addressed in the last 2 updates. There’s been 3 updates recently I’m hoping one of them fixed it but if not I guess I should just be happy this game is playable again

Sarah MacNamara

Yeah it was fixed in the first update

Lisa Brookes

Is anyone else getting the glitch that causes your Sims to not eat? I’ll have them make something or get out leftovers, they’ll take it and sit down then the interaction just cancels. It takes 4-5 times of me dragging the food back to the fridge and starting the action again before they will actually eat it. It’s very frustrating.

Chelsea

Yes, exact same there here

shay

The recent update has made it worse the game just freezes and lags so much practically impossible to play i never had an issue with the first update

Adam Clark

Which households are supposed to have been fixed from crashing? Just the ones in Eco Living?

Chris

I was hoping the insects and the doors would be fixed. Our pets can escape again! Please fix both of these things!

Rifman

Please fix cheat command’s won’t work

Jonathon

Please fix cheat command’s won’t work

Nikolas Durain

My Sims stuff keeps disappearing!
Whole house was wiped out after a house party. Even Sims without Klepto trait are making my stuff disappear!

Ashley

It could be because your NAP is sharing is caring or that sims there had the recycle disciple trait I think.

Nephable

After the patch, all my roofs have disappeared. Can only see the “wall” part of the roof and the roof trims. And this happened in all my save games. Adding or removing the current roof doesn’t make a difference.

CINDEE

The lastest update messed up a lot of things in my game, I dont appreciate it after all the effort and time I put forth to build such a lovely community. The tiny house nonsense also is really bad. Who ever did this whole update really had no appreciation of the game. Heads should roll.

Jared

There is still a bug where sims refuse to do the “Scoot over” animation on beds.
I hope this gets fixed soon

Vuffi

I can’t create a new pet or download a pet from the gallery, even though i have the cats and dogs expansion pack. Please fix this issue

Nelly

My sims were getting on my damn nerves yesterday. I was playing the Pleasant view family (re-made versions) and all they did was bake wedding cake. Bloody wedding cake!!! This was all over the house, mixing bowls and cake ingredients everywhere. They did their usual crap like go to work and wicked whim all over the place lol but whenever it’s time to cook a meal the bloody mixing bowl came out and a wedding cake was made…..annoying!!!! Then I moved Lilith out to go live with Dirk and guess what her first frigging meal was that she cooked?? I’m going to kill her if it continues LOOOL. It’s only her and the rest of the Pleasant family that do this. If this continues I’m going to drown the whole effing family. Point is this didn’t happen before the update but like I said it’s only THIS household. Apart from that everything else works just fine.

Sorry for the rant lol

Happy Simming!!!

Tiffany

The update made the game totally unplayable. Can’t load a single household, going on 2 days now. Hope they fix it soon.

Nikita

I can’t travel in the game nor can I order or anything via pc and phone without there coming a yellow square or half a square or a pink circle in the middle of the screen so I can’t play the Sims only build

Mann

Man I swear this patch has changed there AI they all seem sluggish now they all wait like 10 seconds before doing anything some times I have to tell them to do things multiple times and the only dlc I have is city living, vampires, and jobs.
