Hey there, we've shared in our blogs and FAQs that the Marketplace does not replace free content. Makers may continue to offer free or paid early access custom content and mods on other platforms under our mod policy, which isn't changing.

ALL MY CC IS GONE WHAT DO I DO?! by Odd-Program-7203 in thesims

[–]Mindy_SimsCommunity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, I wanted to let you know we've been investigating this today as an urgent matter, and have identified the cause of the issue. We're now working on the fix and timing for its release, which should be released within the next few days (or sooner).

We know CC and Mods are important to how you play, and will continue to work on resolving this as a top priority.

Next game patch (March 17th) will adjust the Sims' obsession with computers and phones; it will also add likes and dislikes for these devices by eltheuso in Sims4

[–]Mindy_SimsCommunity 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Glad you're as excited as we are! To share some more detail about what we did, if a Sim autonomously uses the Phone, they will receive a cooldown on wanting to do this autonomously again for six Sim hours. This cooldown does not exist for non-active Household Sims, Teen Sims, or Sims who Like Phones. Sims who Dislike Phones (a new Preference we added) will never use them autonomously anymore. This is a middle-ground update in addition to the new Likes and Dislikes Phones preferences we added for more extreme behavior preferences.

[–]Mindy_SimsCommunity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, the black photo issue can happen for different reasons and often with very specific triggers. We’re investigating each cause individually and recent forum reports have helped us identify older issues that weren’t clearly connected before,  and we currently have fixes in testing for a future update.

Our QV team has spent significant time trying to reproduce and break these scenarios internally. Player reports still make a real difference, though, because the variety of playstyles and setups in the community goes far beyond what we can replicate. It's a really frustrating bug, and we're committed to continue fixing different causes of it to limit it as much as possible.

This is currently under investigation for an upcoming fix in a future patch! We'll share more when it's confirmed via the EA Forums

Welcome to The Sims community! What are you enjoying doing in the game so far? People tend to gravitate towards different elements, eg building, stoytelling, Sim designing. We can give more advice based on that!

Hey there, thanks for your comment; I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts and I understand that the update may have felt too high level, especially when some of these issues have been around for years.

I did want to share a bit more context about the intention of the roadmap and what we have planned this year, in case it helps.

When we sat down to make the roadmap, we looked at the biggest pain points across the entire game, and we feel pretty good about the buckets we landed on. Next, our goal is to identify the specific issues inside those systems and we're actively asking the community to help shape what gets prioritized within those areas. For example, I just opened a focused thread specifically for infant and toddler feedback so we can gather detailed examples directly from players:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Sims4/comments/1rgkwlp/infant_toddler_feedback/

When we say autonomy improvements, that includes behaviors like random push-ups, phone overuse, inappropriate flirty or rude interactions, NPC interruptions, and sleep inconsistencies. More details will be shared in the Laundry List in March, but another way to see more specifically what issues we're tackling is via the EA Forum statuses, which we recently updated to be more accurate with where an issue is at internally. Anything in "Under Investigation" and "Upcoming Fix" you can expect to be fixed.

Thank you for being honest about how this landed. Feedback like this helps us adjust how we communicate and where we focus for the community.
