Before and after the new update, the game is still lagging like I'm so tired of it. I miss the days when Sims was so inappropriate when I was ten I literally was like oh my god... the remote is vibrating. I can't stand the bugs! The game is always lagging.

I try so hard to be positive about the game, but it's not the same. It's like an unsatisfying piece of cake, it's what you've been craving and yet it's not good as you hoped it would be.
Exactly!
So they can learn how to be irreverent, and how to incorporate it into the game.
I miss the crudeness, I miss the silliness, I miss the ridiculousness, and I miss the darker things.
Maybe it's just not for you. You shouldn't have to work that hard to enjoy a game.
I like it without having to stress about it, but if my game lagged, I would be so annoyed... maybe play the sims games you enjoy instead.
I can't I don't have anything else, except for this head ache of a game.
If you’re not going to deliver big, innovative features and can’t get a tiny lot in a closed world with backdrop SFX working flawlessly, then why bother? Quick check for EA, I guess.
And how to make in depth game play, the little details that add up to an immersive game, real personalities for sims, wants & fears, an honest memory system, an attraction system, worlds with many lots, worlds with functioning cars...
You know many of them worked on Sims 2, right? Why on Earth would they need to do that?
Can you list how many exactly? And how many did work on the Base Game for TS2?
I hate to say this, but I think a lot of Simmers who played Sims 2 overestimate that game's current value. Sims 4 is a more successful game than Sims 2. Financially, the Sims 4 is doing well and people like it. A lot of the systems in Sims 2 (like memories) probably won't work well in Sims 4 without causing serious bloat and memories corrupted some saves in Sims 2. Regardless, because the Sims 4 is doing well, I think the developers don't see why they should make the game more like 2, especially when it comes to memories and wants/fears.
Hmm...again, I don't mean any disrespect, but I do remember you created pretty much the exact same thread about a day or less before this one. Are you trying to get feedback and find a solution or are you more interested in generating a multitude of echo chambers?
If this game is not entertaining enough why can't you find something else to do? I do understand your frustration, but it's best to leave constructive feedback rather than telling everyone on multiple threads how headache inducing this game is.
The developers don't care about headaches. They care about constructive feedback. They do read the feedback section you know?
In the meantime, maybe find something else you enjoy doing? It doesn't necessarily have to include a computer...
And yet, the Sims 4 still has the lowest reviews of all of the games. No matter how many packs they add on, they aren't really improving the game that much. The same problems still exist.
They can keep selling the game to naive customers as much as they want, but eventually they'll get bored with it like everyone else. Even the gamechangers aren't playing the game anymore, probably because they're bored too.
Plus, the Sims 4 is only so successful because it's been out longer than any of the other two games. EA is also pretty hush hush about their exact sales figures...
It's been 6 years! The Sims 4 has more dlcs than any other The Sims title and don't try to give me The Sims 3 Store card because evryone knows people would buy dlcs for The Sims 3 much more than store content. The base game was free for a period. Its on Origin and Steam and nowadays we don't have to go to a store to get the game. The Gamechangers, like it or not are a way of advertising the game and there are so many giveaways for this game! The console game is exactly like the pc one unlike previous titles! Not even to mention that The Sims has no competition at this moment! The Sims 4 might have numbers but when you look at all the factors they are much less impressive than the numbers of The Sims 2 or even The Sims 1!
If Sims 4 weren't doing well, the team would have moved on a few years ago. But they keep making dlc for it because it's doing well and the dlc is profitable. People like and buy it -- that's why there's a lot and why the basegame is sometimes free (to sell the dlc). I don't agree with all of their choices, but I don't think this argument of make it more like the Sims 2 is persuasive when some of the Sims team actually worked on the Sims 2 and when the Sims 4 has better figures. This is a business after all.
I like the game, but it's quite frustrating when your time is literally stopping for about a minute. I probably had made another thread of the same thing, but I forget a lot and mostly I love the game for the details of the Sim, but it just doesn't feel as it used like Sims 2. I wish there was more to it.
True! Making more than one pack for things that were sold in the past in just one expansion will always make a lot of profit. New players buy everything, heavly influenced by social media and propaganda with the majority not caring about of past games even tough The Sims 3 still exist in an expensive way (wonder why?-.-) and If you an old fan and you already own the past games, you expected more but you still arround because you're passionate about The Sims that it's still a monopoly. The Sims 4 is a downgrade with little improvements. Improvements are expected in a new sequel but it's existence is questionable. It feels like it is just a product and has no soul! Sometimes it is borderline pointless.
I wish the majority of complainers to stop buying things even when its on sale but we know things don't work that way. We will have to wait for the competition and it could be good or terrible but The Sims will have to change because this certainly will not continue forever!
I know that that's the going opinion on the forums, but I don't agree. I played Sims 2. I have the Ultimate Collection now and it's a good game, but I like Sims 4 a lot more. I'm not really a builder and I don't spend much time in CAS, and yet I still prefer Sims 4. For me, there's just not enough in Sims 2. I had Sims mastering all skills while/before they became adults. There are only a few plants for gardening and a few meals to cook, etc. There aren't many Sims and they don't age together. Time stops when off-lot, etc. etc. The clocks moved and they opened cabinets when cooking, but I rather have piano be a separate skill than have a moving clock. We should probably have both, but I think that there are tons of people like me who actually prefer Sims 4 gameplay to Sims 2. Sims 4 has improved a lot since release.
The game isn't supposed to be like that though. That kind of lag sounds horrible. Have you tried to troubleshoot what's causing it?
