EA Looks into Issues with The Sims Re-Releases

Players report significant problems after the launch of The Sims and The Sims 2 Legacy Collections.

So, it looks like EA is having a bit of a rough patch with their recent re-releases of The Sims and The Sims 2. Players have been running into headaches after launching these new Legacy Collection versions that include all past DLC (except for that IKEA pack). From crashing to graphical glitches, it’s enough to make any Simmer want to pull their hair out!

Last Friday was supposed to be a big day for fans as EA announced the digital release of both games. But who knew the weekend would bring such chaos? Players quickly took to online forums, flooding them with complaints, from missing food items to complete game failures. It sounds like a total nightmare!

At this point, you could practically hear the collective sigh from the community when EA acknowledged these issues. They released a statement saying they are actively looking into what’s going wrong and asking players for help diagnosing the problems by submitting screenshots and files. Talk about teamwork!

“Sul Sul Simmers,” they said warmly in their message. Who doesn’t love that iconic greeting? But here’s hoping they get things sorted quickly because folks are genuinely frustrated over here, especially those excited about finally getting their hands on these classic titles digitally.

The original The Sims, being so tricky to run on modern hardware without some serious digging through old discs or user patches, makes this situation even more frustrating for dedicated fans. This Legacy Collection was meant to save everyone the hassle, but it has become a headache.

If you’re feeling brave enough to jump back in or share your thoughts, join the conversation! What do you think about EA’s handling of this situation? Have you encountered any issues yourself? Let us know in the comments below!
