The Sims Megathread - Come on in! The house is on fire but it's ok. Have you seen my basement? - Games

[QUOTE=PieClock;45854695]So when is the earliest this is releasing so I can warm up the VPN? Pre-load still hasn't activated for me either, says I need to wait until tomorrow.[/QUOTE] I think Korea is the earliest at 5pm tomorrow, not sure tho.

Sorry for being a pain, but 5pm in what timezone? :v:

[QUOTE=PieClock;45855590]Sorry for being a pain, but 5pm in what timezone? :v:[/QUOTE] Sorry I was unclear, My Origin said the game would unlock September 1st, 17:00 (Sweden GMT +1). So in the UK it should be like like 16:00 tomorrow or something right? v:downs:v

Just saw this image(might be late, but it's new to me): [img]http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140823161204/sims/images/thumb/7/78/Oasis_Springs.jpg/640px-Oasis_Springs.jpg[/img] Is this how the world view will be? Cause that definitely slashes out making custom worlds now. Unless there's a simple way to do it so anyone can make custom worlds, and I hope that is the case.

There isn't really a "world view" any more, saying the game is split up into neighborhoods. Apparently you can edit the world outside of your plot inside neighborhoods. Is that what you mean?

[QUOTE=PieClock;45855817]There isn't really a "world view" any more, saying the game is split up into neighborhoods. Apparently you can edit the world outside of your plot inside neighborhoods. Is that what you mean?[/QUOTE] Hmm, I guess that sounds good then, as long as it's not just some map where you click on icons and it takes you to a tiny neighborhood. Was hoping for a 3D world view, similar to The Sims 2. But, if that's what it takes to make the game run smoother on lower-end machines, then I guess it's what I'll have to deal with. By world editing, I mean like the Sims 3 World Builder, where you could make your own world/custom cities. I was hoping The Sims 4 would have it, since The Sims 2 and 3 had their form of making your own worlds/neighborhoods/cities.

According to Origin you can refund the game within 24 hours if you dont like it. I can dig it.

[QUOTE=Adarrek;45852500]It's not coming for consoles...[/QUOTE] Thanks, but it's why I asked. Maybe it will come to PS4 eventually like Sims 3 did on the PS3. I'll be quite happy with it on PC though.

For those who want to use a VPN [url=http://www.reddit.com/r/titanfall/comments/1z9npl/guide_how_to_use_a_vpn_to_unlock_titanfall_early]Use this tutorial[/url] It's really easy. My time of unlock went from 11:00pm tomorrow night to 10:00am tomorrow morning (so like 12 hours from now instead of 24).

Do I need to worry about any repercussions from Origin for using a VPN?

[QUOTE=Skyward;45859076]Do I need to worry about any repercussions from Origin for using a VPN?[/QUOTE] According to the post [quote]For those wondering if this will get you banned. NO, it is perfectly safe if you are just using it to unlock the game a little earlier after buying it legitimately. There is nothing in their Terms of Service about using a VPN for early access and EA support has said multiple times that you will not get banned for this. Using it to get games cheaper is another thing entirely.

I used a vpn for titanfall and nothing happened ban wise

Buying games for cheaper on a VPN = bad Unlocking games you own early on a VPN = no one will care

Yeah, no worries I've been using VPN to [B]unlock[/B] stuff from Origin and Steam for years, never had any problems.

Great I'll give it a shot when I get home from work on the morning.

So the time under the Korean VPN says Sept 1, 2014, at 16:00. According to Google it's 16:47 over there? Does it like use your system time or what because this shit is confusing. Edit: I guess it does, going by the countdown timer on the Korean origin front page. 7 hours, nice.

[QUOTE=mr hobo;45859101]According to the post I have used VPN in the past multiple times with nothing bad happening, but never say never.[/QUOTE] I'm amazed they said they won't ban people for it. They told me I would be banned for just changing my Field of View in ME3

Using the korean VPN game unlocks in 4 hours ( Arround 11:30 AM ), Hell yeah

Woo! I am now officially Korean!

I dont get why you guys just can't wait an extra few hours.

Why wait when you can just get it earlier? And for me it's not "a few hours" its ~3 days. No point in waiting if you want to play it.

[QUOTE=greeley;45861371]I dont get why you guys just can't wait an extra few hours.[/QUOTE] If by you a few hours you mean a day. And I am choosing not to wait because I won't be able to play all day tomorrow. And to you I ask [I]"why wait an 'extra few hours'"[/I] when you don't need to?

Hazah, it works, now to wait. Hmm, it says 12PM unlock time for me. I'm assuming thats your Computer time, because its past 12PM in Korea :v:

I wonder when cd keys will send codes

I can't wait for the LGR review. I bet it'll be a blast to watch

part of me wants to unlock the game using this vpn thing, but another part knows that if I do I'm gonna get fuck-all done for these last few days of summer and my little brother (who was even against the idea of me preordering it on origin as he was going to buy it in-store and wanted to be the first to play it) would probably get really pissed if he found out I was playing it four [I]days[/I] before him :v:
