    So, About How Many Hours Have You Logged/Played

    (So Far) In Sims 4 Since You've Had It?

    See The Results So Far!

    Thanks everybody who commented and all those who are doing this poll anonymously.

    I really do hope that everyone returns weekly (every 7 days) to do the poll so that everyone can see how TS4 playing activity changes over time.

    (So Please Bookmark This Thread or My Site.)



    How To Calculate It::

    guys, all you have to do is go into Origin and hover over the sims 4 and at the bottom it says "hours played."

    You Could Also Use My Methods (some people say Origins "Hrs Played" is not accurate):

    Estimate Using Months: The method I like to use is, to estimate how many hours I play a day, on average, then multiply that, by 30 (days in an average month). So 5 hrs a day (for example), times 30 =150 hrs per month, and the game has been out for about 2 months. So that would be about 300 hrs so far for me.

    Estimate Using Days: Simply estimate how many hours you play a day, on average, then multiply that, by how ever many days it's been.
    So 5 times 67 would be 335 to be more exact.

      Impossible for me to know.

      Using the number by Origin is highly inaccurate. It counts all the time I spent in the demo
      It does not count any of the time I play offline.

      So no idea.

      I'm going to be generous and pick the 20-40 hours. I can only manage short bursts at a time and I don't play every day. It's probably far nearer the 20 than 40.

      That's perfectly fine. Bookmark the poll and you'll see that over time, there are many people that play a similar amount to you too. Everybody's different. Don't worry.

      It would be inaccurate for me to calculate how many hours a day I play. Total hours played is 36 hours...that includes time spent playing on the demo. A lot of the time is also down to loading the game...sighing and quitting again. Just can't seem to get into it. Even with all the new patches :(

      Exactly where does Origin say how many hours I have played.. I saw a picture once, before I bought the game but, now that I own it I can't find the post.

      Origin says I have played for a total of 63 hours - baring in mind I bought this 5th Sept 14.

      I did 44 hours straight with TS3 from the point I first launched it - 44 hours straight from launch to deciding I should sleep - the first 16 hours were faffing about in build/buy mode.

      EDIT:
      Origin also confirms I last played on 6th November 14. As far as I am aware, I've only launched TS4 half a dozen times to actually play it.

      I played the demo, 20 min, probably less and didn't buy the game since I couldn't even look at a sim without feeling annoyed.

      I've been playing since the beginning. Unfortunately, someone beat me to the 1000 hours played mark :'( But it's okay! As long as I'm enjoying this game, it's everything I ever wanted.

      I bought the game a month before it came out, had it pre loaded so I could start playing an hour early on Sept. 2 and Origin says I have 339 hours. edit: (And I don't leave my game running while I do other things.)

      i dont play everyday, but these days are the longest i ever played. when the game came out i played 2/3 days straight, but mostly creating sims, building, finding my way in the game. When i really started to plat, it didnt take longer than 1,5 hour and i stopped for a few days, tried the same again and stopped for weeks.. months.. so in total i just played a few days since the release date.

      But, where does Origin say this? Has to be on the Origin app right? I am sooooo over looking this and that makes it more frustrating.
