FIND THIS POST HELPFUL?
Did they fix the glitches on the missing Claus quest? Last time I couldn’t find the markers to find branches and that’s why I wasn’t able to finish.
Yes those issues should be fixed this time.
Thank you for all you do! I couldn’t play this game without your guidance!
You’re very welcome!
I noticed that the most recent sim chase (20/scare bears) gave the option of purchasing any missed prizes at the end. I just missed one i really wanted in outdoor engagement and am devastated! Do you know if purchasing at the end will again be an option?
Thank you!!
Yes this is an option at the end of all simchase events.
My inner child’s play player favorite quest wont go away. I haven’t started it yet but I thought it would go away. It’s been forever now. It’s still there waiting to be started again. Will this get in the way of the Christmas player favorite quest? Will it replace it?
If this quest still won’t disappear I would suggest you contact the makers to see if they can fix this for you, this post explains how to contact them if you are unsure: https://thegirlwhogames.blog/2016/05/29/the-sims-freeplay-contacting-ea-firemonkeys/
I’ve been playing Sims for years, I’ve not played it so much recently, buy noticed it doesn’t seem to have updated. I’ve lost all facebook friends & the app is not showing on “my apps” in the play store?? What’s happening?
Facebook have changed their Privacy T&Cs which means that inactive players have been removed from the party boat in the game which is why some of your neighbours may be missing
Hi, I have a question about SimChase.
I completed the recent episode where the grand prize included the Living Trick-Or-Sweet Care Bear, which I really wanted.
I spent over 400 SPs, about 150 LPs, and I’m ashamed to admit, some real life money in order to complete the season.
The Sim Chase that was currently running just ended on my game, and it looked like I would have been able to just spend a significantly lower number of SPs to get all of the prize packs? Am I correct, or did I read it wrong?
Would that have been a better way for me to go with the Halloween SimChase? I didn’t want to miss out on the Care Bear, and I went a little crazy.
That is probably correct, sadly, it is hard to know until the end how much they will cost but they are usually around 150SP. With the latest update we have received compensation for this simchase event- all the prizes from episode 5 onwards and 30SP (I bet you feel worse now!) I asked the makers about this as I also spent way more than 30SP to complete this and I was told players need to contact support for compensation if they spent more so I would definitely suggest you do, this post explains how to contact them if you are unsure: https://thegirlwhogames.blog/2016/05/29/the-sims-freeplay-contacting-ea-firemonkeys/
I contacted them yesterday, and wrote essentially the same post I wrote to you with some minor edits, and they emailed me today with this response:
“Hi Sarah,
Thank you for contacting Firemonkeys. My name is (Blank) and I will be the agent assisting you today.
I see that you have concern regarding the compensation from the latest update for Simchase. I can understand your concern.
I would like to share with you that the compensation has been added by the Studio Team and there is nothing we can do in this. Had it been possible, I would have done it for you. Hope you understand our limitations.
Regards,
(Blank)”
There isn’t anything else I can do at this point, is there?
I’ve let the team know who told me to direct players to support and they asked for your player ID so they can look into this (if you don’t know where it is when you click on settings, the 3 white dots, you’ll see your player ID at the bottom of the screen) don’t worry I won’t post it on here, I’ll just pass it on
Hi,
I just read your post stating that you’re taking the rest of the year off and won’t be able to answer questions for a while.
I hope everything is okay with you and thank you for all that you do.
When you come back, if you would be able to just reply to this post stating that you received my information, I would appreciate it.
Merry Christmas and stay safe.
I hope you got the help you needed!
will there be another update for December
Of course, there is always a December update: https://thegirlwhogames.blog/2020/11/29/the-sims-freeplay-christmas-in-london-magical-morocco-update/
