Uninstall an update?

Heathertibb

Is there a way to uninstall an update? I am playing on XBOX. I am not happy AT ALL with the new Wants/Fears system and I would like to just play with regular old whims again. This is how I'm used to playing so this new update has completely ruined my gameplay style. PLEASE tell me there's a way!

You should be able to disable the wants and fears but whims are gone after the update.

I don’t think there’s anyway to reverse a game update.

I'm on PC myself so I'm not well versed on Xbox but I really don't think it's possible to uninstall an update. Unless proper disc versions exist (i.e. all the pre Highschool Years content as a physical copy with no online requirements for install) then even if you were to uninstall the game and then reinstall it, you'd need to be online and it'd automatically update the game to the latest version.

well if they see how displeased people are they may update it give the gurus a tweet if you can

Unfortunately, the game updated more than just wants and fears, and playing without it may have undesired consequences.

Darn. The update screwed up my mods.

As has been the case with previous updates. 🙂

I believe you have the option to turn off wants and fears similar to lifestyles in game options if that's the only thing you dislike there's a quick solution.

Also if you’re planning on getting the new pack you can’t install it without the update because it contains code the new pack needs to work in your game.

Thank you all for your replies 🙂

Didn't you remove your mods before you updated? All the major mods have been affected by this patch. Some have been given the all-clear and others have been updated. I do know there's a hot fix for MCCC. Install the ones that are updated, anew. I learned this lesson the hard way. I forgot to toggle the automatic update for the game in Origin, originally. Then, I failed to put myself off line so that I could play without the update for a time.

I didn't know about it. Not that I had too many mods that I really used, but...

Aside from that, mine is not in Origin.
