EA silence on family play and family play fans

Comments
Okay, will be careful.I will say gets warmer when playing the game a long time, but not hot or the whole thing.My laptop does have a vent though. So I guess my best bet is play occasionally , and just saved u[p for a desktop
Best thing you can do for now is get a laptop cooling pad with some fans. Coolermaster and thermaltake make some good cooling fans
If your in the uSA last I checked walmart did have a desktop for $628 that meets all requirements to run the sims 3 and 4. Prices for computers fluctuate depending on stock and what is available. It's not often I find a computer that meets all requirements in that low price range. Average is $700-800. When you buy a desktop you need to make sure you also have a a good powerful power supply. I find many computers that meet requirements but have a very low power supply which is not good.
I never in my personal experience of a laptop that only has 64 GB.
They make cheap laptops with a small hard drive. They are more like a tablet but in laptop size so they are larger. They design them so you use cloud storage. i have two tablets one without windows and one with windows 7. Both have 64 gb storage. Having windows 7 with 64 gb storage is ok. Windows 10 takes allot to run so having a small storage is not the best idea unless your planning on using cloud storage
we have actually had people try to run this game on a tablet with very small storage. It won't work out well. Trying to play this game on a tablet is far worse than your laptop.

I thinking of buying this desktop
I noticed that this discussion has veered way off topic. Thus, I'm asking you to bring things back to the original subject; the alternative is that I have to close this thread.
Thank you!
This thread was originally very active and once toddlers arrived became less active. It veered off topic occasionally as the posters became very close and liked getting help among folks they felt comfortable with. @simgurudrake has always been very tolerant of this thread and the OP was awesome at keeping this thread as much as possible off contentious posting and arguing. It would be a crying shame to see it closed considering their is no arguing or contentious conversation going on, just puter advice. Talk with @simgurudrake before you consider that action. Please.

If you have any further questions post in Tech so we don't go off topic This desktop does not meet requirements. On average a computer that meets requirements runs in the $700-800 range USD
Agreed. This is one of the best, most friendly threads on the entire forum. I rarely post but I always read and it would be a real shame if it were to be closed.
But most importantly, we want to get your feedback.
This is very true LOL

I think they got the randomness pretty right with Parenthood as well. Like not all of my kids and teens tend to go through the same mood swings. When Hank, my painter and creative sim, was a teen he had so many moodswings (which fit his character very well), but his brother and sister didn't. My current social kid goes through a loud phase rather frequently but her sister doesn't. I hope she'll have a lot of moodswings too, just like her dad anyhoo, I think it's very well done
Personally, I think it has been quite sad to see the thread going off topic and used for other things; there are plenty of other threads for that. I always liked knowing that I could pop in here any time to see what people have been up to with their toddlers and families and finding out news of new stuff for families, seeing people's opinions on the latest family releases.
May those little cuties get many more things each time a pack is released!
That's good to hear. One of my concerns about the pack was due to Generations' mandating teen rebellion in teenagers, so that you had to always watch for the message and cheat to remove the moodlet if you didn't think that particular teen was the rebellious sort. Plus the hard curfew that meant even teens with jobs would get brought home by the police, grounded and all the attendant family upsets. I haven't played with the Parenthood pack, yet, was waiting to see what other people thought. I did get the Toddler Stuff and modified a park to add a junior play area. What I'm really waiting for is Pets so I can add a flatcoat in several families!
