EA silence on family play and family play fans
Return to top
Comments
I will fight alongside anyone who wants to find a way to get something we deserve-I want every single one of you to have your say and for other companies to see how wonderful you are and what amazing feedback and love you have in your hearts for family play. If EA don't want us then we'll have to find someone who does. I'm sure it will be easier than trying to get through to the brick wall and stone hearts at EA.

EA this is what should be added to the Sims 4! Not an EP that holds no relevancy whatsoever to what this thread stands for and all the simmers who want family play.
Sims 2 and 3 toddlers are so cute and the thought of them not added to 4 is very upsetting!
If they come with something good i'll be one of the first people to admit it, but this is just pathetic.
Yeah, the members who like TS4 and don't like our "negativity" are like:
"you just want to complain, that's why you're doing it for months".
Well, sorry, but if they don't change anything how can i change my attitude?
ETA: Everyone of us know that we sound like broken records. But if EA puts their fingers in their ears, we either can stop to play our music or try to play until EA takes their fingers out.

If I had the skills and knowledge, I would have started a Kickstarter and begun development a long time ago. Unfortunately I don't know if another Life Simulation game is even possible - has EA copyrighted it? Maybe that's the reason there isn't any competition. It may not even be possible, which is very sad, especially since this is being run into the ground and there is no sign of it stopping.
In all honesty, I really, really miss the old gameplay and memories these little Sims had brought me. Yes, I understand that the Sims 4 will never be the same as TS3 or TS2, but can I not expect core elements that were included in the old games? NPCs and toddlers are pretty much a necessity for a Life Simulation, which is what the Sims franchise is supposed to be.
This new EP really seems to just be rubbing it in. It's clear that they are targeting people that are young, but I doubt I am the only one that is young and wants family gameplay. It's always been about money in EA, but I thought that with GTW, I would be proved wrong. I think that a lot of people were probably strung along and that's wrong. The thing is, I doubt EA will listen to us unless we make it VERY clear they won't get our money until they give us at least a simple 'yes' or 'no'. I've seen a suggestion about a 24 hour 'blackout', and I'm in favour of that, but I doubt it would mean much.
I know I'm not the only one, but I'm upset, angry and disappointed with EA. I had hopes for this, but now it's all about partying and dishwashers, I'm ready to close my wallet. After all, I can go back to the other games for those - which include things missing from TS4 or need fixing.
EDIT: *I mean the game TS3, not the mod.
Did not take long before someone jumped on me that I should respect what people love or don't love. While that is true, it's really obvious that the yibbers always love what EA does.
I know some people don't like me and my negative attitude towards this game. I got blocked by a very popular Sims website because ''I was spreading negativity'' about her and the website over at MTS. But well.. I don't give a big fat green plum.
I was patient before but if I sound angrier now? So what? Ask yourself why @SimGuruLyndsay etc a devoted loyalist like myself would lose that patience. Because it feels at this point like we've been abused. Stuck in a corner told we are being heard but left to rot waiting while you push out party content and then not only that but your company making snide untrue remarks about why we are unhappy when you know full well the true story. Or should. You know what? I regret helping you EA. If I could go back in time I'd tell myself you couldn't be trusted and that anything I do to help would be tossed into the garbage like anything else which dares to question the narrow 'vision'.
I don't know any other artists who would blame their own fans for not liking their product. It's so unbelievable that you would even try that one. A disgrace.

HA! I can guess who it was. Sadly, she has the best news site. She always hyped TS3 and than acted like it was a pile of plum once it was finished.

At this point, there is no excuse that could possibly justify what they are doing or not doing.
It's obvious, TS4 is no longer a LifeSim per say, it's more of a PartySim. I've had my share of fun with the game and have enjoyed some aspects of it but I can clearly see the direction this game is taking.
I really wish they call Tim Letourneau (Executive Producer of TS2) and Ben Bell (Executive Producer of TS3) back and have these two Executive Produce TS5. RF should not be allowed anywhere near a Sims game. Wait scratch that, I bet she'd be great on the Freeplay team.
I'm gonna go make that twitter account for sure and I'll be back later for someone to tell me how to follow peeps and who. Hugs to all and please those who are gonna leave pop in now and then and say hey or join the PP forum ( can I say that here?)

Sorry you had to wake to such a disaster, I know that we were trying to be hopeful only to be disappointed again with the same kind of content.
Link is in my signature
When I made a comment over at simsvip about ea ruining the sims 4. Two people pointed out to me that sadly it's the most played game on orgin. That it knocked battlefield to number to. * rolls eyes* so yeah people are being zombies and only buying it cause things are new. Not me though. Haven't bought anything since outdoor retreat. They can shove these eps/sps game packs where the sun doesn't shine
*Tries very hard not to get banned*
Sorry you woke up to this chick. But if you would like to have a cringe moment it is worth the watch lol.
Wish i knew how to make mods and was a computer whizz coz if i did i would make toddlers and family stuff for you all for the game. (Dont even know if thats possible but i can dream)
I couldn't stay up longer because my new puppy already keeps me up too late.
Do they have proof of that? I just tried to check and cannot find a list of THE most popular game on origin. It is in the best selling games section and I don't doubt that. People will buy it, play it, gripe and complain or love it. I'm not trying to knock those that love it, why do they always have to knock those of us who want it to be better?

I wish I knew. I didn't bother to look for the proof sadly. And yeah if people like the game that's great. It's just not for me anymore.
