Sims 4 Problem and Annoyance Thread--Take 2!

<< < (3/3)

Pyromaniac:
Seconding all of the annoyances reported by tinylittleparty.

Also:

- Bed ownership in this game is dreadful. Since the update, Good Friends can no longer sleep in the same double bed if at least one of them has claimed it, even if they're in the same household and both have claimed a side. Sims automatically claim a bed if they sleep in it.

- Parties last forever; dates end too quickly. With all the queue-dropping and route failures in this game, it takes me the entire length of a date just to get seated at the goddamn table.

- Time passes too quickly because sims take forever to do anything. Everyone in this game apparently suffers from catatonia: they'll wait 5-20 sim minutes (depending on game speed) before moving on to the next action. It seems to occur more often when there's a lot of auto-queuing involved (i.e. when task-relevant actions pop up in the queue without your intervention). This might explain why cooking and socializing are some of the worst offenders, since there are a lot of actions being shuffled.

- Also a minor annoyance, but there's no option in CAS to copy makeup from one category to the rest. There is ONE way, and ONE WAY ONLY, to have your Everyday makeup carry over to the other categories, but from what I've read on the forums, this occurs only under extremely stringent conditions. (It has to be a "fresh" sim from CAS, you can't press the Randomize button, you can't click anywhere on the Sim's body or bring up the Outfit tab, you have to enter and exit Detailed Edit mode and jump straight to the Makeup tab, etc...)

All these supposed "fixes" and "causes" mixed with my own experience and the very small sampling I have taken make me think it is inherent in the game.

I'm certain that the time problem seems to be an issue with the engine itself, as sometimes the speed controls stop responding, or things keep moving even when the game is paused. The original game never had any issues; the problem only started happening after a patch from some time ago. IMO it's worse than TS3's shitty performance.

Heh, that's weird. I have the exact opposite issue. Can't score a Gold party because time runs out way too quickly to complete the objectives.

MaximilianPS:
At this moment the most irritating behavior is the book-obsession, every sims looks like to prefer read book instead look at tv, talk each other, even the child ignore toys and read book
JM please save us from books !!!  >:(

J. M. Pescado:
Seems normal to me. Wife and kid behave exactly like that, too.
